Two new options have been added to Change Preferences.

* Time Zone Support. Display the times of all messages in relation to your local time. The default is PST, and Gamespy's servers seem to be off by about 10 minutes or so.

* 24 Hour/AM-PM Support. Now you can choose whether to display the time in 24 hour format(default) or in 12 hour AM-PM format.

If you experience any problems with this or any suggestions, let me know. I'm currently working on a couple of the non-threaded format 'problems' (message order and the 'new' icon).

Oh, and I fixed a problem (I think) where Less-Than and Greater-Than icons wouldn't show up correctly... lets see:

< >

Also, &current_sprite will display as &current_sprite, and not that funky character then t_sprite.

One bad thing I've found is using sp_x with parenthesis will result in an angry smiley. I'm working on a solution.
