- History changes:
-
- 1.17 (03.03.1998)
- -----------------
- NEW: Added client list settings. You may choose to highlight friends, show all, or hide clients
- which is not your friends. Which information which is showed is costumizable in the settings.
- That setting may also be modified with the Settings/Show in list'-menu item.
-
- The Friendsbook is now saved everytime a client is added with the Add-button found in
- the main window.
-
- Now uses AMarquee.library version 47.
-
- Optimized the SendFile a bit. It's now using asynchronous loading and saving, and AMarquee v.47's
- new Multithread-support functions. And should also be be bit safer now.
-
- The Private Chat is also using AMarquee v.47's multithread-support functions, and therefore
- some child tasks were eliminated. They are only created when AmiComSys get a connection
- from another host (before they were always created at the start of AmiComSys).
-
- Added arexx commands GET NUMCONNECTED and GET LISTSHOWMODE. 'NUMCLIENTS' now
- gives the number of lines in the contact list, in difference to the 'NUMCONNECTED',
- which gives the number of alive clients in your contactlist. That two may
- differ if you use the 'show friends/hide others'-show mode of the client list.
-
- Did a new server software for the AmiComSys Server.
-
- The history buffer window's layout changed a bit. You may now remove selected messages.
- Load, Save as and Save as ascii added to menu. Auto save. See Settings-Windows-Message History page.
-
- Added path settings for Sendfile on the Misc-settings-page.
-
- Empty lines in chat windows are not sent now.
-
- The say-text-field now keeps being activated, even though you click on other gadgets in
- the chat window (not obviously the topic-text field ...).
- (This is unfortunately not completly true if you are using NewString.mcc.
- You may change text-field-type (from Newstring.mcc to another) in the Program-variuos-settings)
- If someone have developer information for Newstring.mcc I would be very delighted if you
- could send it to me. My try to contact the author failed :-(
-
- BUGFIX: Fixed a possible corrupt memory list.
-
- Fixed a enforcer hit which happened when switching from invisible to online status.
-
- An Enforcer hit when one requested client info of a client using AmiComSys 1.15 or lower, fixed.
-
- This program is ShareWare.
