====================================== QuickBBS Version 2.01 Changes Document ====================================== Version 2.01 of QuickBBS is simply a maintainence release for Version 2.00. It mainly fixed a lot of bugs that existed in Version 2.00. Make sure you run FIXUSER to clean up your user file, Version 2.00 had a small bug which caused the download counters to get trashed. Also be sure to run the new QNODE included in the 2.01 package if you run net-mail. * QuickBBS will no longer send ANSI codes to the modem in local mode. * The problem with the Type 40 command has been fixed, this caused QuickBBS to sometimes repeat the last command entered. * When you forward a net-mail message, QuickBBS will now exit at the proper errorlevel to toss it out. * ECHOGEN's never ending problem with Origin lines has hopefully been completely fixed. * If you are in chat mode for more than the inactive time limit, the system will no longer disconnect the user. * QuickBBS's internal ANSI driver will now expand TAB characters. * If the -T parameter is not specified on the command line, QuickBBS will attempt to use it's own event scheduler to determine when the next event is. * If a backslash is specified in the optional data of a download command, QuickBBS will now handle it properly. * The orward command now will allow you to forward a message to a different Zone. * The download counter problem has been fixed, QuickBBS no longer will decrement the number. * The control character ^B in ANS/ASC files has been fixed, it will now disable aborting the text file with the S key. * The nodelist structure for QuickBBS 2.01 has changed slightly from the previous 2.00 structure. Please run the new QNODE.EXE program before installing 2.01. * The DORINFO1.DEF file that is created on an external exit or system shell has been fixed to support the RBBS-PC local mode (COM0) entry. * The problem with USEREDIT's add user function has been fixed, this bug caused USERPACK and USERSORT to bomb with an error code 100. * The orward message command will now exit with the appropriate errorlevel when forwarding network mail. * There is now a command view text file command, it is type 28. The optional data is the download path. * There is now a new questonnaire file command called, this command will output (to the users screen) one of the answering variables. This makes it possible to list the user's answers so far and ask if they are correct. The format is: LISTANSWER is the variable number between 1 and 20. * The problem with MSGPACK setting the message read pointers to the highest message on the system has been fixed. * The user's time limit is now checked when reading messages continuously. * QuickBBS will now clear the screen in between ever call (running stand-alone). * The bug with QuickBBS kicking anybody off at midnight has been corrected. (I hope!) * More verbose error information has been added to the ERRORS.LOG file. * A new utility is included called CHKMSG. If will make sure your message files are in order and match up. If there is an error detected, an attempt will be made to fix it.
