  Sysop Information
  =================

  * Account Editor

    Now displays user id of the user you're editing.

    You can now change the LeechAccountData file and the TimeAccessData file,
    though these aren't used by anything yet, but they will be soon! :-)

    All presentation code is now done.

    Maximum lenghts are set for all input types.

    Doesn't crash if you enter blank strings for numeric types

    Lets you add or remove bytes to uploaded and downloaded bytes by
    entering +number or -number as well as just a number,

    e.g. if user's uploaded bytes was 1000 and you enter +500 the uploaded
    bytes will be set to 1500.  how handy is that...

    All possible status types are shown on-screen.

  * Node/Control

    Clicking the "Window" gadget on "Control" will now bring the
    Node's control panel to the front if it's already open.

  * CheckFiles

    Now saves the user's data after each uploaded file is processed, in
    case the checker/adder or any other door files, so you don't have
    to re-add all the bytes for a user.

    After each file is processed, a message is written to the callers log.

  * FrontEnd

    Added two new options, "DoneMsg" and "NameCorrectCancelMsg".

    All config options ending in "Msg" (e.g. DoneMsg) are scanned for
    the string {LF} and if {LF} is found it is replaced by a CR+LF combination
    (\r\n).

  * NewUser & SelectLanguage

    A couple of users had problems with this so I made a small
    change which has fixed the problem for one user, and it should
    be better for the rest of you two..

    (re: locking up after adding user data to data file for a new
    user)

  * FileLister

    Now displays a special screen called "FileList" before it
    prompts for a list to use if none is specified in LIST mode.

    (e.g. when you type in "F" and pressing return at the BBS prompt)

  * JoinConference

    Dispays the special screen "Conf_Cancel" if you cancel joining
    a conference or you picked an invalid conference number

  * Node

    Fixed the command line history not clearing the old command line

    The logoff scripts are now checked for existance before they are run
