Changes in the GAP Character Table Library
This list contains the changes in the GAP character table library
since the official upgrade for GAP 3.4 in October 1996.
We denote mathematical errors by *** and new information
by NEW.
We use C to denote changes that are not obviously corrections;
the number of these changes is kept small.
Release of GAP 4.1 in July 1999
