What's new in version 0.6.2
* BUGFIX: Fixed crash when using some .htoprc files from 0.6
(thanks to Wolfram Schlich and John Thomas for the reports)
* BUGFIX: Ensure changes to color scheme are saved
* BUGFIX: Make configure behave correctly with --with-proc
* Minor addition to .desktop file.
What's new in version 0.6.1
* New meter type: "All CPUs", which dynamically adjusts
to the number of CPUs present in the machine. Note that
because of this, older versions of htop may crash when
using an .htoprc file modified my the newer version.
* Accept --with-proc=<dir> in configure, to specify
alternative procfs locations (making htop friendlier
to the Linux compatibility layer in FreeBSD)
* Included icon .desktop and desktop entry
(thanks to Peter Hyman)
* Added a check to make sure that a root-user htop closes
when its parent non-root terminal is closed.
(thanks to Ilya Evseev for the report)
* BUGFIX: does not crash anymore when $HOME is not set
(thanks to Henning Schild for the report)
* Wait for strace child process to die properly.
(thanks to Marcus Fritzsch)

What's new in version 0.5.3
