when the window is expanded.
Added ^C support for when the client is waiting for the remote user to respond.
Made talk not detatch from the shell, as this seemed to be causing problems.
02/27/94
Fixed ^C handling EVERYWHERE. If there's a place where you can't ^C, let me know!!
Can't type before connected now.
02/28/94
Fixed talkd crash (curses be to Berkeley and their flagrant use of
register variables!!! :)
Added support for ENV:MESG (set to on or off)

04/23/94
Got a GVP A530 Turbo for my 500.... (He he he--faster than the 3000... :)
04/26/94
Got everything transferred to the new drive, and fixed a bug that
developed somewhere that made amitalk not work with Unix machines.
Released version 1.05
05/03/94
Added person connected to in title bar.
Compiled with AmiTCP 3.0. Supports usergroup.library.
06/05/94
Discovered lots of display bugs while demonstrating AmiTALK to a friend... :(
(And it used to work so well, too... :)
06/07/94 (Back to school after a break)
Added ^C support inside the AmiTALK window to exit the program.
Added a receive window cursor.
09/30/94
Henric Jungheim fixed up the source code a BUNCH, fixed many things,
and gave some GREAT suggestions!!
(Thanks, Henric!!!!!!!!!)
10/02/94
Fixed blanking of receive cursor when delete pressed.
Made talk free (hopefully) all AmiTCP resources before exiting.
10/28/94
Added in checking of env:blanked. If it is present, the calling party
gets a "Your party is not logged on." message.
11/15/94
Realized it had been a long time since my last release and send the current
version to people on IRC.
11/20/94
Modified the documentation a bunch.
Make an installer script.
11/22/94
Made AmiTALK look for local first, then global environment variables (more
MuFS friendly??)
Made AmiTALK reinvite the remote every 20 seconds.
Made exit messages print to stderr. (Like "Your party is not logged on...",
etc.)
11/23/94
Made text windows redraw after resize.
11/26/94
Made talkd exit after 2 minutes of no activity.
Made talkd detect incoming talkbombs. If one is discovered talkd will
log a warning (with the IP address of the sender) to syslog and return
a "Your party is not logged on" message.
12/01/94
Released AmiTALK 1.10 on aminet.
12/02/94
Fixed the 3.0 talkrequest.rx so it works.... (Whoops--I got a bit excited
about releasing the last version. :( )
12/03/94
Made AmiTALK *CORRECTLY* check to see if getlogin() failed.
Made talkd *REALLY* exit when it should (after 2 minutes of no activity
or after receiving a ^C).
Took the full path of rx out of talkd. This should fix problems some
people have been having with not getting talk requesters.
Made AmiTALK look for both talk and ntalk services (different port numbers).
This *MIGHT* help some people who are finding incompatibilities with some
Unix talks.
Released V1.11 on aminet.
01/12/95
Made talk use a simple refresh window instead of a GimmeZeroZero window.
Also found a better way to do some stuff by looking at an EAGUI example.
(Thanks Marcel and Frank!!!)
01/20/95
Used some display routines by Jason Gouger to make a shell version.
Made an AS225 version.
Made CNet support stuff with the help of MustangVR (vrb.com) and michale (pln.com).
Changed talkrequest.rx to talkrequest.rexx.
Combined the AmiTCP/AS225/shell/GUI versions into a single source tree.
Fixed some more ^C problems.
Tried adding identd support to trace talkbomb usernames, but discovered it
wouldn't work because identd only works on TCP connections. :(
03/07/95
Fixed exit codes.
Wrote new install scripts.
03/17/95
Released AmiTALK 1.50
03/17/95
A test version of talkd was accidentally released with 1.50 that
always said incoming requests were talkbombs.
Made a new archive with the correct talkd and released it as V 1.51.
03/18/95
Fixed a small bug that may have (and in one case did) destroy the inetd.conf.
Released V 1.52.
04/20/95
Fixed a very minor bug in the 3.0 talkrequest.rexx that caused it to
fail. (My monitor is now broken, so I had to borrow one to make this
release--that is the reason it took so long for this release...)
(Anyone who wishes to make any donations to the "fix the monitor" fund
is more than welcome to contribute.)
Released V 1.53.
06/06/95
Discovered how easy it is to parse iff files with iffparse.library, so I
added paste functionality (activated by Right Amiga-v).
Fixed the installer script so that the correct lines get added to inetd.
Put my current snail mail address (not that anyone has ever sent me
anything. :( ) and permanent email address in the documentation.
Revised the documentation a bit.
Created the debugging information script.
06/09/95
Released V1.55 on aminet.
