Webster's History : Version 0.10

Version 0.10

  1. Added code to get original filetypes for 'Image files' (Those OS_File,23 returns as type 3, Thanks to Simon Middleton)
  2. Added Toolbar icons for non-multisync modes.
  3. Both Fonts and Sprites are taken from files named xxx22, xxx24 and xxx (default if the others do not exist) depending on the mode at startup.
  4. The <isindex> tag now produces a writable field and when used sends it's contents with spaces replaced by pluses.
  5. Telling webster to run a command line with fetched files nolonger finishes webster.
  6. Can now select the 'Call Standard Fetcher (Extended URL)' option in the Fetchers section of choices windows
  7. Checks Both <Webster$Choices>.Choices1 and <Webster$Dir>.!Run to decide if it is running from a read only filesystem.
  8. You can now drag an application or file to the External Viewers window to get the command line partially filled in.
  9. Tidied up the Choices windows. Fixed the Group boxes and Text Alignment in RISCOS 3.5 when Antialiased fonts are used on the DeskTop.
  10. Made the XBM decoder an External program to allow faster code to be added easily.
  11. Added support for the <!DOCTYPE> tag. It's contents are currently ignored.
  12. Fixed bug in handling Long preformatted text (the end of a line could be missed).
  13. Added searching of the current document (^N Finds the next match)
  14. Tidied up forms, especially in preformatted text. Also fixed handling of stray &'s again.
  15. Added support for Background Images (via the <Body> tag) and Timed Document Refreshes (via the <Meta> tag). These can be disabled using the Extensions section of the Choices windows.
  16. Added much more documentation of the Choices Windows, Some sample starting points and where to get Fetchers.
  17. Added a button to the Toolbar to turn Image Loading On and Off. (Pushed means load images)
  18. Updated the HelpData for with Interactive help for the new windows.
  19. Text Wraps properly to the left of Images using the Align=Right attribute.
  20. Copes with Links of the Form file://localhost/%3cWebster$Dir%3e/!Help.html and file://localhost/Webster:!Help.html (Which both point to Webster's !Help.html file using the System Variables <Webster$Dir> and <Webster$Path>)
  21. The HTTP fetcher should now support URL Redirection. As supplied this is turned off, to turn it on you need to Edit the Fetchers Messages file and change the Second line to say REDIRECT:1.
  22. Local URL Translation is now working again. A slight re-ordering meant that a URL of xyz.html would match the directory xyz even though a file called xyz/html did exist.
  23. Tags are now stripped out of the page title and any '&' codes are obeyed.
  24. Local Images can now be saved in the same way as 'fetched' ones. (Double click them with Adjust, OR Click Menu on the image and follow the 'Save' submenu)
  25. Improved the response to clicks on links while loading, also multitasks better.
  26. Should now display pages with links of greater than 255 characters. The next version should be able to floow them as well.
Thanks to all those who have provided Bugs Reports, Fixes and Suggestions.
