Migration of configuration data from flnews 0 to flnews 1 format
================================================================

Run "migrate_config" before the first start of flnews version 1.

Attention:
Modify the shebang of the migration script "migrate_config" if
"/bin/sh" is not a POSIX shell (e.g. on old versions of Solaris).
Some standard POSIX utilities are called to process Unicode data,
run the migration script with a locale that use UTF-8 encoding.

flnews 0 uses the configuration directory "$HOME/.flnews".

flnews 1 uses the XDG Base Directory Specification. The new location
of the configuration directory is "$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/flnews".
If the variable XDG_CONFIG_HOME is undefined, the default value
"$HOME/.config" is used for it.

A notice is printed if the "scorerc" entry in configfile is used.
It must be changed because a scorefile cannot be shared between
different major versions of flnews.

Note:
If a configuration directory for flnews 1 is already present, no
operation is executed and an error message is printed.
The existing new configuration directory must be removed manually.
