Changes from version 1.1 to 1.2
-------------------------------
New config keyword "depth" lets you specify the depth of the floating
screen. Make sure you specify this before the "colors" keyword.
New config keyword "colors" lets you specify the colors of the
floating screen. Example:
colors 000,fff,f80,383
Various pen colors can be customized using the config keywords
"pen_text", "pen_high", and "pen_alert", and "pen_gadtext". See the
documentation file for details.
Fixed guru that occurred at various times after YaHoo's window was
hidden with the "hide" command. Also fixed a problem with signals
that may have caused problems when YaHoo's window was hidden or when
it was moved from one screen to another. Also fixed a possible
problem when the wrong number of parameters were passed on an AREXX
command.
New AREXX command "getline" lets you write your own who's online
command in AREXX for your callers to use. The example BooHoo.rexx
script is provided to get you started. You can use it pretty much
as is, or munge it to your heart's content.
New config keyword "dispid" lets you specify a display id for
creating the floating screen. Value must be in hex (sorry, I'm too
lazy tonight to figure out how to read the display database).
Easier screen shuffling! If you use the floating screen, click the
new screen cycle gadget to cycle through your active screens. YaHoo's
screen stays fixed at the bottom as you cycle. Use this instead of
clicking the other screen's cycle gadgets, or using AMIGA-M/N. If
you've avoided the floating screen because it was difficult to cycle
through your screens, try it this way!
Changes from version 1.0 to 1.1
-------------------------------
Make absolutely sure you have NOSHOWREXX in your Trapdoor config file
if you let YaHoo send AREXX messages to Trapdoor 1.83. Without this,
Trapdoor might hang or crash. This is not a problem in 1.84 and later.
Fixed bug where YaHoo sometimes reported an idle port when a user was
actually on-line.
Clicking on a selected port now deselects it.
New config keyword "showall" starts YaHoo with all gadgets visible.
New config keyword "gad_idle" specifies a gadget that is active when
nobody is logged into the current port.
New command substitutions in the config file:
$4 is trapdoor's arexx port name
$5 is trapdoor's log file name
New config keyword "gadfont" lets you specify a font for the gadgets
different from the main font. This font can be proportional.
New config keyword "title" lets you specify the window title.
Fixed several bugs in font opening and closing.
Fixed some buggy error messages (font size and lib versions were
hosed).
Added more interesting examples in the Tips & Tricks section of the
documentation.
Chat examples in the Tips & Tricks section were changed to avoid
using DLG's AREXX menu commands, since it seems to crash even on
these simple examples. Now I see why everyone says DLG's AREXX
is broken!
Time remaining is now included in the display.
New config keywords let you control the display format somewhat:
"nolevel" suppresses the access level
"nocity" suppresses the city
"notime" suppresses the time remaining
"nobaud" suppresses the baud rate
"alias" shows alias instead of name
New config keywords "zoomleft" and "zoomtop" let you specify the
window's zoom (icon) position.
Clicking on the arrow gadget really really fast no longer causes the
window to be resized wrong.
New config keyword "sizeup" controls the way YaHoo resizes its window.
