[AD] Patch to thanks._tx

I'm submitting a patch to thanks._tx, against revision 1.56 (dated Jan 30, 2005)

This patch adds an empty space and a closing bracket to a line where it is presumably missing (by comparing with other authors credits). The affected line is the line where appears my name and e-mail. This error prevents my name from being displayed in the demo\demo.exe credits :-( I don't belive it was intentional, but if it was, I apologise for writing this e-mail.

I'd rather prefer that either my name appears in the credit with this issue fixed, or that credits and references for myself be removed completely from the allegro library (no need to remove them from previous versions and from the CVS repository, of course!).

-----------------//----------------------

I'm not sure I really deserve "Fixed several issues with ..." in the credits, perhaps something like "Fixed some issues with ..." would be more realistic. My contributions were very small in comparison with other authors (I just realized that to compile sucessfuly the DJGPP port some data records should be updated by adding the missing fields, that were added recently in some structures). Anyway, I'm very glad due to consideration with me of all of you. Although I think I haven't fixed *several* issues, I haven't dared to change the original text to "Fixed some issues", before hearing more opinions.

Either someone could commit this patch or tell me how to commit it to the CVS repository (I'm a newbie to CVS and I have no idea how to commit changes. I've read somewhere that the patches should be commited via ssh. I've downloaded cvs-1-11-17, but I haven't installed it. I'm using Windows 98 SE).

Marcio.

P.S: If you want to contact me or get a fast response, please e-mail me to maaf1980 at yahoo dot com dot br. I've turned off mailing list delivery for a while.
