Release version 1.01.
Wed Jun 21 09:47:33 PDT 2000 <blair@akamai.com> (Blair Zajac)
Proc::Background::Win32 used to only protect arguments that
contained he space character by placing "'s around the
argument. Now, make sure that each individual argument to
Proc::Backgrond ends up going to the Windows shell in such a
way that the shell sees the argument as a single argument.
This means escaping "'s that are not already escaped and
placing "'s around the argument if it matches \s. This will
protect the string if it finds a \s in it and not just a
space.

Release version 1.00.
Thu Apr 20 14:40:11 PDT 2000 <blair@akamai.com> (Blair Zajac)
In certain circumstances on older Perls, Proc::Background
would complain that @_ could not be modified since it is a
read only variable. Make a copy of @_ and modify that.

Relax the requirement that the path to the program has to be
absolute. If it is not absolute, then look for the absolute
location of the program.
Add a new method named pid that returns the process ID of the
new process.

Restructure the die method. Keep the OS independent code for
killing a process in Proc::Background and the OS dependent
killing code in Proc::Background::*.
Update the POD for Proc::Background to be more explicit about
what start_time and end_time return.
Fix bugs in Proc::Background::Win32.
Update Makefile.PL to check for Win32::Process installed on
Win32 systems.

Update the README to indicate that libwin32 is only needed
on Win32 systems.
Remove calls to croak or die. Call cluck instead.
Fix the implementation documentation.
Remove Proc::Background::Win32::alive since
Proc::Background::alive works.
