  * The `tview' command now correctly handles CIGARs like 7I10M and
    10M1P1I10M which cause assertion failure in earlier versions.
 
+ * Tview accepts a region like `=10,000' where `=' stands for the
+   current sequence name. This saves typing for long sequence names.

  * Added the `-d' option to `pileup' which avoids slow indel calling
    in ultradeep regions by subsampling reads locally.
