[p4] Often requested feature available in the 2006.2 beta

[Jeff Grills]

Not in this instance, but it's a topic that's been discussed often enough on
this mailing list that I thought this new feature warranted an email to this
list.  I didn't intend on getting derailed into the classic "but making a
change form isn't hard to do" discussion that typically follows when someone
asks how to submit a changelist from a script.  In the past I've also
claimed it's not hard to create a change form, and even went to the point of
arguing against having perforce add this feature because it's so easy for us
to do ourselves - I'd rather they worked on things for which we don't have
easy work-arounds.  Anyway, it's there, and many people will rejoice.

Take care,
