Short: Slrn 0.9.6.0 (slang 1.3.10) Author: John E. Davis Uploader: Jörg Strohmayer Version: 0.9.6.0 Type: comm/news Requires: OS 2.04, 68020+, ixemul.library, ixnet.library, pdksh, ... Replaces: comm/news/slrn* Changes since 0.9.5.7 0. misc bugs fixed 1. If the newsrc file indicates that articles in the range 1-N have not been read, but the server indicates that those articles are nolonger available, then mark that range as read. 2. slrn incorrectly interpreted an empty body as a server error. I think that most servers reject such messages but a few allow them. 3. Patches from Sylvan Butler : improved tin emulation macros; -s added to install to strip slrn; body added to slrn_select_prev_group function; 4. If slrn fails to initialized the terminal, it will exit gracefully. How did this fall through the cracks?? 5. If username contains a space, avoid the space when creating the message id. 6. If `use_flow_control' is non-zero, ^S/^Q processing by the terminal driver will be enabled. 7. sortdate.sl: small tweak to handle articles from the 1980s and earlier. 8. `author_display' and `display_author_realname' removed from doc/slrn.rc file. 9. slrn --version will show all compile-time options. 10. help.c: Post a postponed article reworded. 11. A score file may contain an `include' statement to include other score files. See doc/score.txt for details. (This feature suggested by Sylvain Robitaille ). 12. Small 32-vs-64 bit problem fixed where an int was used instead of a long in comparing strings. 13. There is nolonger any need to exit article mode to apply a changed score file. 14. New intrinsic functions (see docs for more info) get_visible_headers (counterpart of set_visible_headers) headers_hidden_mode (indicates whether or not some headers may be hidden) _is_article_visible (similar to is_article_visible) extract_displayed_article_header (get the header in the displayed article) 15. slrn_is_fqdn rejects names that end in a `.'. 16. `Headers Received' message modified to include group name as suggested by W M Brelsford . 17. If `read_article_hook' exists, then it will be called after an article has been read in (Marcin 'Qrczak' Kowalczyk" ). 18. Different quote levels may be assigned different colors, e.g., color quotes0 "red" "black" color quotes1 "green" "black" . . color quotes7 "yellow" "black" A maximum of 8 levels (0->7) are permitted. Make sure that your quote regular expressions match as few characters as possible. For example, use ">" and not ">*". 19. Some code in art.c moved to artmisc.c in an effort to clean it up for future improvements. 20. The toggle-quotes function maybe used with a prefix-argument to hide the nth level of quotes. 21. `toggle_signature' function suggested by Tom Friedetzky . Default binding is to "\". Also, toggle_pgp_signature added with binding "]" and a color: pgpsignature. The `hide_signature' and `hide_pgpsignature' variables may also be used. 22. If compiled with SLRN_HAS_EMPHASIZED_TEXT (default), text such as *this* and _that_ will get highlighted using "underlinetext" and "boldtext" colors, resp. This requires the variable `emphasized_text_mode' to be set to a non-zero value: if 1, do not write `_' or `*' characters; if 2, write them as spaces; if 3; write them as they are. (suggested by Dawid Kuroczko ). 23. Improved tin emulation macros from Sylvan Butler . 24. Patch from Sami Farin replace `/' characters with `_' in decoded filenames. Changes since 0.9.5.6 1. Fixed calculation of article window size in non-zoomed mode. 2. Fixed a bug in parsing of realnames that contain no alphabetical characters. 3. spool.c will check the .minmax file if no articles are present in a spool directory. 4. New intrinsic added: replace_article. This allows a macro to replace the contents of an article with a specified string. 5. slrnpull `--debug FILENAME' command line option added. 6. Some modifications to nntp.c to call the connection-lost-hook as early as possible. Changes since 0.9.5.5 1. Misc bug-fixes: a. Intrinsic function `locate_header_by_msgid' improperly interfaced to the interpreter. b. `make install' was trying to install some old, obsolete, and non-existent documentation files. c. Tiny bug fixed in new get_hostname function that manifests itself when the name server times-out. 2. With slrnpull it is now possible to specify an alternate log file via the `--logfile FILE' command line option. 3. Philipp Grau suggested using ` in the ascii thread tree instead of \. 4. Add patch from Thomas Schultz to mime-encode the real name when posting. The original patch was due to Joachim Wieland . 5. When replying, slrn adds References headers and also takes into account the To and Cc lines. This enables the newsreader to better support mailing lists. 6. If a thread has some unread headers, then it is marked with a `%' instead of a `D'. (Andrzej Radecki ). 7. When asking for a password/username, a newline character will be written first (Philipp Grau ). ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date
