* prevent buffer overflow attack via defaults file
* ignore defaults file from other users
* updated documentation for use with cron
* minor bugfixes

Mon Apr 8 21:22:36 UTC 2013 - pascal.bleser@opensuse.org
- update to 20132020:
* reverted incorrect fix for -P 100, which may lead to data corruption
* reenable hash libraries (no correlation with data corruption)
* bail out if any output fails to initialize
* refixed hang on -P 100
* reduced sending overhead
* fixed handling of option -f
- changes from 20130209:
* hash names should be compared case insensitive for convenience
* safeguard against missing argument to option --hash
* support for hash calculation withdrawn, due to potential data corruption,
when the buffer runs full
-------------------------------------------------------------------
