3.42.P22
-- Fixed a bug in the delay factor.
If a user was not logged, the last user's delay, not the default
was used.
-- Internal XPR support partially implemented, not operational yet.
-- Network CPS statistics. Don't expect Citadel to do 240 cps at
2400 baud. Expect half speed, Citadel does a lot of fooling around
with the data...
-- added a check for carrier lost in the new user operations. There
were a couple of places where a new user could drop carrier and
hang the BBS.
Also, a echo >ctdl-aux:ENDCLI "ENDCLI" should get you back to
citadel if they are in the door.
-- updated alot of the messages to make them a little bit more user
friendly. Most of the updates came from suggestions from a user
that spent a fair amount of time looking over the sources....
-- I started to do the changes for QWK support(special thanks to Gary
Meadows of Asgard 86). I thought I would do this release now and
test those changes in the next one. There are missing pieces and
I have to find out what they do...
-- I ported the 2ndfmt utility to allow me to update the NODE0.RAW
file in the net area.
-- fixed a bug in getList, a routine used to get lists of things for
just about everything. It had an artificial limit on how long the
prompt could be. I had exceeded that and it was trashing the stack.
I re-wrote it to allocate a buffer, not have one on the stack.
-- replaced the SAS/C getenv routine with my own. This solves the
problem that SNOOPDOS showed where TZ was being hit on many times
per second. Now, an environment variable will only get a single
hit and then it is cached. This saves several system calls, a CD,
and an fopen that fails(or succeeds, then a file read). Will reduce
the idle CPU usage by a major amount!
-- Fixed a minor bug, the user count was not incremented for a new
user.
Next on the agenda is Page length/Pausing, at least I am investigating
it...
