<td WIDTH="98%"><b>What's new</b>
<ul>
<li>It handles nls tags within commented code</li>
<li>It handles multiple nls tags</li>
<li>nls tags are ignored in isolated line comments like:<br>
<pre>
<code>		...
		// System.out.println(""); //$NON-NLS-1$
		...</code>
</pre>
</li>
<li>Other nls comments are reported as unnecessary if they don't match a corresponding string literal</li>
<li>The tool removes the unnecessary nls tags even if the line comment is used for another comment:
<pre>
<code>String s = "Hello, World"; //$NON-NLS-1$ This won't be removed //$NON-NLS-2$ at all</code>
</pre>
becomes:
<pre>
<code>String s = "Hello, World"; //$NON-NLS-1$ This won't be removed  at all</code>
</pre>
</li>
<li>It also removes the trailing whitespace when the nls tag is the only comment on a line.
<pre>
<code>String s = null; //$NON-NLS-1$&lt;end of line&gt;</code>
</pre>
becomes:
<pre>
<code>String s = null;&lt;end of line&gt;</code>
</pre>
</li>
</ul>
