WebSTAR v1.2 Release Notes
• Improved compatibility with Open Transport
• Implementation of "server push" and "send partial" Apple event capabilities in order to enable Web clients to receive data in real time from stock quotes to animation
• Now requires the Thread Manager to run
• Support for RAW file types--this is a file that WebSTAR simply opens and dumps the contents to the client
• Ability to handle more connections per hour has increased by 50%, leading to 30% overall real-world server throughput
• WebSTAR will now encode the "$" character. This solves previous problems for clients and servers using CERN proxy networks. As a consequence do not use the "$" sign in any file or folder name
• Completely localizable for normal messages (not verbose messages)
• WebSTAR now displays the port number it is listening on in the title of its Status Window
