+                      Signing Tool (signtool)
+                         3.10 Release Notes
+               ========================================
+
+Documentation is provided online at mozilla.org
+
+Problems or questions not covered by the online documentation can be
+discussed in the DevEdge Security Newsgroup.
+
+=== New Features in 3.10
+=======================
+One new option (-X) has been added to create a Mozilla aware signed XPI archive. 
+The option must be accompanied by the -Z option. This new option
+creates a JAR file with the META-INF/zigbert.rsa/dsa file as the first file in 
+the archive instead of the default third to last. This will enable the archive
+to be seen as signed by products incorporating XPInstall. i.e. .xpi extensions
+for FireFox or Mozilla.
+
+=== New Features in 1.3
+=======================
+
+The security library components have been upgraded to utilize NSS_2_7_1_RTM.
+This means that the maximum RSA keysize now supported should be 4096 bits.
+
+=== Zigbert 0.6 Support
+=======================
+This program was previously named Zigbert.  The last version of zigbert
+was Zigbert 0.6.  Because all the functionality of Zigbert is maintained in
+signtool 1.2, Zigbert is no longer supported.  If you have problems
+using Zigbert, please upgrade to signtool 1.2.
+
+=== New Features in 1.2
+=======================
+
+Certificate Generation Improvements
+-----------------------------------
+Two new options have been added to control generation of self-signed object
+signing certificates with the -G option. The -s option takes the size (in bits)
+of the generated RSA private key.  The -t option takes the name of the PKCS #11
+token on which to generate the keypair and install the certificate.  Both
+options are optional.  By default, the private key is 1024 bits and is generated
+on the internal software token.
+
+
+=== New Features in 1.1
+=======================
+
+File I/O
+--------
+Signtool can now read its options from a command file specified with the -f
+option on the command line. The format for the file is described in the
+documentation.
+Error messages and informational output can be redirected to an output file
+by supplying the "--outfile" option on the command line or the "outfile="
+option in the command file.
+
+New Options
+-----------
+"--norecurse" tells Signtool not to recurse into subdirectories when signing
+directories or parsing HTML with the -J option.
+"--leavearc" tells Signtool not to delete the temporary .arc directories
+produced by the -J option.  This can aid debugging.
+"--verbosity" tells Signtool how much information to display. 0 is the
+default. -1 suppresses most messages, except for errors.
+
+=== Bug Fixes in 1.1
+====================
+
+-J option revamped
+------------------
+The -J option, which parses HTML files, extracts Java and Javascript code,
+and stores them in signed JAR files, has been re-implemented. Several bugs
+have been fixed:
+- CODEBASE attribute is no longer ignored
+- CLASS and SRC attributes can be be paths ("xxx/xxx/x.class") rather than
+  just filenames ("x.class").
+- LINK tags are handled correctly
+- various HTML parsing bugs fixed
+- error messages are more informative
+
+No Password on Key Database
+---------------------------
+If you had not yet set a Communicator password (which locks key3.db, the
+key database), signtool would fail with a cryptic error message whenever it
+attempted to verify the password.  Now this condition is detected at the
+beginning of the program, and a more informative message is displayed.
+
+-x and -e Options
+-----------------
+Previously, only one of each of these options could be specified on the command
+line. Now arbitrarily many can be specified.  For example, to sign only files
+with .class or .js extensions, the arguments "-eclass -ejs" could both be
+specified. To exclude the directories "subdir1" and "subdir2" from signing,
+the arguments "-x subdir1 -x subdir2" could both be specified.
+
+New Features in 1.0
+===================
+
+Creation of JAR files
+----------------------
+The -Z option causes signtool to output a JAR file formed by storing the
+signed archive in ZIP format.  This eliminates the need to use a separate ZIP
+utility.  The -c option specifies the compression level of the resulting
+JAR file.
+
+Generation of Object-Signing Certificates and Keys
+--------------------------------------------------
+The -G option will create a new, self-signed object-signing certificate
+which can be used for testing purposes.  The generated certificate and 
+associated public and private keys will be installed in the cert7.db and
+key3.db files in the directory specified with the -d option (unless the key
+is generated on an external token using the -t option). On Unix systems,
+if no directory is specified, the user's Netscape directory (~/.netscape)
+will be used. In addition, the certificate is output in X509 format to the
+files x509.raw and x509.cacert in the current directory.  x509.cacert can
+be published on a web page and imported into browsers that visit that page.
+
+Extraction and Signing of JavaScript from HTML
+----------------------------------------------
+The -J option activates the same functionality provided by the signpages
+Perl script.  It will parse a directory of html files, creating archives
+of the JavaScript called from the HTML. These archives are then signed and
+made into JAR files.
+
+Enhanced Smart Card Support
+---------------------------
+Certificates that reside on smart cards are displayed when using the -L and
+-l options.
