QuickCIS v1.72 beta 3 - by Jim Ness
Note: This is/was the final public version of QuickCIS, and offers several
advantages over previous versions. However, since it is a beta version, it
is included here as only an optional replacement for QUICKCIS.PRG, also
included in this package.
a) More adjustments to the download routines, to better ensure a clean
exit, after a d/l is completed. Should resolve problems with both email
and forum downloads.
b) Files List deletes are now simpler. Items are numbered, and deleting
is done by choosing which number to delete, rather than typing in the
entire filename+userID.
c) Removed an old routine which got rid of the brackets around the
UserID in the Userlist routines. No longer necessary, and in fact causes
problems with current CIS software.
d) Note: there is an undocumented method of changing your CIS Mail
defaults so that deleted CIS Mail is retained, hidden, for a later
"undelete." Mail is saved for about 48 hours, in case QuickCIS or thick
fingers accidently delete your mail. If you need to know how to set this
variable, ask me in email.
QuickCIS v1.72 beta 2
a) Forum download glitches in the previous beta have been fixed.
b) The routine to capture CIS Mail has been extensively reworked to
improve problems with receiving Internet mail. The result is a small
slowdown in capturing messages - maybe half a second per message - but no
more downloading the wrong file, when Internet and CIS/binary messages are
intermixed.
c) A booboo in the built-in editor still limited users to a 2k message,
instead of allowing the new 10k size. EdHak was unaffected.
QuickCIS v1.72 beta 1
a) QuickCIS has been updated to work with the new forum message software.
Primarily, this means you can now create messages up to about 10k in
length, or with a maximum 250 lines.
b) The bug causing 10 characters of a message to be cut off while using
the Output function has been fixed.
c) The bug causing problems after an XYZ.TTP file download has been fixed
(I hope - I could not reproduce the bug on my system).
d) The bug causing problems counting INTERNET email messages has been
fixed.
e) When choosing a file to download in the Read Messages function, the
User ID of the uploader is now "attached" to the filename. This prevents
problems in forums where there are two files with the same name.
f) The speed of characters sent to the modem while dialing has been slowed
down. You may want to play with the Speed button in View Config.
