* DPM will automatically update modules that are installed if there are more recent versions in the index.
* Updated zlib to 1.2.12
* DOJS_VERSION is now a string.
* Class TexInfo() can now load 3DF from ZIP files
* Updated Zip to 0.2.3
* Updated openssl to 1.1.1q
* Added DirExists() and FileExists().
* Updated AnimatedGIF to 1.4.7
* Updated nanosvg
* Updated PL_MPEG
* Renaming DOjS.EXE and JSBOOT.ZIP for packaging purposes should now work as intended
* Added dojs.ini loading for parameters
* Added IniFile class
* Removed missleading VBE3 error messages on failed Font/Bitmap/etc loading/saving
* Included a stripped down version of GrxFntConv that can convert BDF fonts to FNT format
* Added PDF rendering plugin using pdfgen.
* File, Zip, Socket and Curl now use ByteArray instead of IntArray
* File and Zip now supports partial reads/writes using ReadBytes()/ReadInts()/WriteBytes()/WriteInts()
* Added missing error detection when reading/writing data using File
* File now supports Seek and Tell
* QOI loading from ByteArray is now possible via DecodeQoi (e.g. to load from ZIP or network socket).

It also includes the JavaScript source for two games I made with DOjS and that are released for DOS and WIN over at itch.io
