      fetch_get_raw_data will notice if up->fetching is zero and return a 'finished' status rather than trying to continue reading data for the fetch. Fetches should never fall through that far but at least it will cope if they do.
      
      3D table borders are now supported. 2D borders are used if the
      inter-cell spacing is too small to fit the borders in (display resolution
      dependent) - the external table border is 2D if the internal borders are,
      else 3D. For cellspacing of 0, internal table borders must plot over the
      outer edge of pixels inside the cell; for all greater spacings, the
      borders take up all or part of the gap between them. The external border
      will always fit around the outside of the cells, including the
      cellspacing value in the gap between the outer cells and the border.
      
      Anti-alias colour for placeholder ALT text was incorrect. Fixed.
      
      I'd changed 'point' to 'points' in some of the Font Choices dialogues;
      now changed back to 'point'.

      Calling HtmlEndParse at the end of html_get_next_token and setting up->context to NULL was wrong; fetch_fetcher would end up recalling html_get_next_token later which would then call HtmlParse even though the document parse had just finished! The HtmlEndParse call has now been moved to fetch_stop.
      
      Altered reformatter to claim fonts inside a browser, rather than
      claiming them for nothing and losing them afterwards.
      
      Got rid of TAG == TABLE and ISBODY tests, replacing with tagno == TAG_TABLE.
      Removed all references to TD, TH, TR and TABLE in the style word.

      Got the deferred reformatter working properly. It doesn't do that 'OK, the page is fetched and reformatted, but just to annoy you, I'm going to wait 5 seconds and then suddenly reformat the whole thing again' trick anymore. The fetcher was calling the reformatter in a delayed form even when the reformatter was already running, so it would carry on past the reformat point or from below what had become and invalidated line, and some time later, get back to the delayed reformat. Now, reformatting is only delayed by the fetcher when the reformatter is not running. In practice this means body text reformats as it fetches, but large tables will show delayed reformatting - which was exactly the intended behaviour of the feature when it was originally thought of.
      
      fetch_token_data_address removed; it was only needed in two places,
      both of which already knew when to read tp->text and when to ignore
      it. Its functionality is duplicated in an 'if' involving reformat_istext,
      anyway.
      
      !Run[D] files taken back to requiring HTTP 0.33, since 0.36 introduces
      many weird and wonderful problems.
      
      Typo in Messages files, 'All current images (sic.) fetches finished' -
      'images' is now 'image'.
      
      Shift+Click saving - you could save to an application. No problem. But
      the equivalent (just clicking on a link that led to an unknown datatype
      and getting the save dialogue that way) didn't work. It does now.
      Another problem was saving to an application that didn't support the
      datatype - oops, the dialogue would close but the fetch would sit there
      waiting to be told where to save. It doesn't close now (as expected).
      
      NB, doing several simultaneous fetches to a text editor may have problems
      as the editors are too clever for their own good. Despite receiving
      DataLoad messages for <Wimp$Scrap> for files of different types, sizes
      and datestamps, the editors can decide it's still the same file and:
      
      Zap      - Hats off, it gets it right, almost. You do get warned 'Multiple
                 copies - one on disc is newer' as everything after the first
                 text loads, but they do load, and in separate windows.
      StrongED - Does not load the subsequent files, so the browser gives 'Data
                 transfer failed' errors and opens up Scrap. Turning off 'Don't
                 load same file twice' fixes it - each file is loaded in a new
                 window with no warnings. At least in the first case, you don't
                 lose data, since the files are kept in Scrap.
      Edit     - Each time it loads the file, it *replaces* the other one in
                 memory, using the same window for each. This is the worst
                 behaviour as it isn't configurable (well, I don't know of a way
                 to change it...) and results in data loss as successive texts
                 get trounced by the new data.
      
      I can't see how I can fix this in the browser as it's basically silly
      behaviour on behalf of the editors. Other applications which don't try
      to work out if it's a new file or not are fine!
      
      When conducting image fetches, proxying is allowed unless reloading.
      When conducting page fetches, proxying was never allowed - so web cache
      stuff would have been, er, interesting. It now sets X-NoProxy: in the
      request header when reloading, but otherwise this is not included.
      
      AnimSpeed is, at last, independent of browser poll speed. They used to
      be tied together. Guess how the animation code used to work ;-)
      
      'Can't handle this datatype' - deprecated now that save dialogues can be
      popped up. The 'can't save objects in full screen mode' error would never
      be shown due to a bug, anyway; this now replaces 'can't handle', which
      has been removed from all Messages files.
      
      RefoWait, RefoHang and RefoTime moved from Controls back to Choices.
      
      Trying to get rid of strlen in the reformatter - it can get very slow
      (e.g. strlen of 8K chunks of text, or if a 330K text file is transferred
      from a text editor straight to the browser, strlen of a 330K string...).
      There will be unfinished bits of code in the reformatter that may seem
      unnecessary - they've just not been plugged in yet (since they don't
      actually work). Don't remove them!
