Whats the difference between the WP versions bundled with CLOS boxed-set versions 1.0 and 1.2?

CLOS 1.0 boxed sets’ CD-ROM also includes a second .deb package (package name “wp-manual”) containing an electronic WP manual. However, that manual is for the non-Linux Unix version, so its omission from CLOS 1.2 is no big loss. (The same manual in PDF format can be retrieved from http://www.cs.helsinki.fi/compfac/WP/wp8gui.pdf.) The boxed sets’ paper-bound WP manual is a lot more useful, anyway. Also among the additions in CLOS 1.2 was a Corelwine / Winelib (non-Linux-native) port of Corel PhotoPaint 9 (which is also available for download from http://ftp.urc.ac.ru/pub/OS/Linux/print/). Note that PhotoPaint9 suffers the same Corelwine / glibc issues as does WP9: See FAQ section “WP9 stopped working / won’t install…” for details.
