Alexander Shaduri af59a431b1 Tagging 0.8.4:
Linux Software RAID devices are blacklisted now. (backported from Debian).
    Attributes tab is before the capabilities tab now.
    A man page has been generously contributed by Giuseppe Iuculano
        <giuseppe@iuculano.it>.
    Smartctl version now includes the CVS snapshot date (if available).
    Windows: Look for "smartctl-nc.exe" instead of "smartctl.exe" by default.
    Windows: Use smartmontools-supplied smartctl-nc.exe by default (if found).
    Other minor changes (mainly Debian backports).
