+29Aug99=======================================================================
+1. Added msg command to allow the changing of To, From, Subject and so on the
+messages. This seems particularly important just now as a whole raft of G3's
+seem to be putting out non private bulls to callsigns.
+2. While I am at set messages to TO fields that appear to be users to private
+if they have been sent as bulls.
+3. Add DISTROs, if a callsign field appears in /spider/msg/distro in upper
+use that as a list of callsigns to send further. Note this is potentially
+recursive as callsigns in a distro can be distros.
+25Aug99=======================================================================
+1. check the date of a WWV much more carefully.
+24Aug99=======================================================================
+1. Prevented spots with lowercase callsigns being forwarded. This opens a
+much bigger can of worms which I shall have to address later.
+17Aug99=======================================================================
+1. all protocol except PC29 containing %XX characters will be dumped.
+2. Changed console.pl so that if you start typing it moves the top window
+back to the bottom.
+19Jul99=======================================================================
+1. Added iota and qra clauses to sh/dx as well, these take optional arguments
+and will look for the appropriate strings.
+17Jul99=======================================================================
+1. Started database integration.
+2. added qsl clause to sh/dx that searches for qsl or via in the dx info
+16Jul99=======================================================================
+1. drop frames with 'illegal' characters in them (but pass frames with
+embedded %XX characters).
+15Jul99=======================================================================
+1. Changed grepdbg to accept a regexp. More useful (to me anyway).
+2. Altered init command so that it doesn't send PC21s down the initted
+channel.
+10Jul99=======================================================================
+1. added an explicit disconnect from my side for already connected calls. This
+appears to have fixed a problem where if two consoles connect at the same time
+with the same (sysop?) callsign the cluster would stop.
+2. added some debugging in the Message handler to allow more state to be seen.
+3. Message handler now seems to work better for longer and doesn't spew out
+PC42 aborts with quite such gay abandon.
+05Jul99=======================================================================
+1. added stat/msg and stat/cluster commands to allow me to poke about inside
+the msg and cluster node tables.
+04Jul99=======================================================================
+1. removed silly 'new message has arrived' to connected nodes
+2. added a ! command to the console.pl program; works like the bash shell.
+01Jul99=======================================================================
+1. Altered priv to 5 for connect.pl to match disconnect for nodes
+29Jun99=======================================================================
+1. fixed merge command that I broke.
+2. added some randomness in waittimes for aborted outgoing messages
+3. Message Queuing now only occurs every 5 minutes (configurable if anyone
+wants to write the command for doing it) and on receipt of a PC16. This is
+a further attempt at sorting the crossing of messages!
+4. a PC33 will cause another attempt at queuing. If you are on a roll, keep
+going!
+28Jun99=======================================================================
+1. console.pl now works with history and editting.
+2. added scrolling to stuff sent by the cluster.
+3. added colours to things.
+27Jun99=======================================================================
+1. added WWV filtering
+2. added timeouts to for forwarding Messages, also added a waiting time for
+failed (stalled) outgoing messages.
+3. Incoming messages will now have priority over outgoing messages to the
+same node.
+4. Added 'catchup' command which will 'catchup' messages to date for a node.
+This means that when you start forwarding to a node, it doesn't get all the
+messages queued up that are probably old.
+5. added 'uncatchup' which does the opposite of the above.
+6. fixed kill full and PC49 handling so that it actually works.
+7. Fixed local aliases so they add to the front of the standard ones. This
+means you only need to add your specials or override the system ones you need
+to.
+21Jun99=======================================================================
+1. changed regex for cluster->client msgs so that strings like |---| are no
+longer ignored.
+20Jun99=======================================================================
+1. prevented a merge to myself (causes a loop)
+18Jun99=======================================================================
+1. fixed a problem with DXLogPrint repeating log entries.
+2. altered the permissions on disconnnect so that priv 5 users can disconnect
+clusters, but still require priv 8 to disconnect users.
+3. made sure that an incoming PC18 clears out all the cluster info for
+that channel before re-initialising.
+4. add init command.
+5. disconnect users before nodess on shutdown
+15Jun99=======================================================================
+1. added grepdbg program (so you can search your debug files and get times
+and dates of incidents).
+2. Moved DXVars.pm to DXVars.pm.issue to force new users to cp it to their
+local directory.
+3. added $allowzero to DXProt to allow thru PC19s with zero protocol versions.
+14Jun99=======================================================================
+1. changed IO::File in help and apropos to IO::File
+2. added a check for isa('DXNode') for PC50s
+08Jun99=======================================================================
+1. Started work on the curses based operator console.
+03Jun99=======================================================================
+1. cluster seems to have a memory leak, put DESTROY functions in where
+appropriate.
+2. try to make sure that PC21 commands are not issued inappropriately and
+also reformat PC19 for onward broadcast so that nodes coming in on loops are
+dropped from those broadcasts.
+3. make sure PC16,17,19,21 doen't affect locally connected nodes.
+4. Changed all instances of FileHandle to IO::File.
+01Jun99=======================================================================
+1. removed a output of an unwanted pc21 for isolated nodes
+31May99=======================================================================
+1. Added checking for PC16,17,19 and 21 to make sure that they come in from
+the channels that they are supposed to.
+2. Pass the RCMDing node's priv level to the command (rather than the
+connecting node's privilege level).
+3. Pass thru merge requests for other nodes.
+4. Removed a warning from client.pl
+5. routed external DB commands and drop them (for now) locally
+6. routed external mail commands (ie those addressed elsewhere)
+7. routed external PC26/27 lines
+25May99=======================================================================
+1. try to make the lastin value correct even for local users
+2. got rid of the stupid bug that failed to print out the offline message
+but put a "*main::STDOUTmain" for every line of that message instead.
+3. Ported to 5.00503 (well actually just installed it and it just runs).
+4. Added who command
23May99=======================================================================
1. Got rid of some of the useless error messages on global destruction when
quiting a program.
+2. Stuck -w back on client.pl
23May99=======================================================================
1. tried to change connection to raw mode for cluster connections
2. sh/c and sh/u are now sorted in alphabetical order
3. Limited the number of queued dx spots when composing messages to 20 (the
oldest one is lost for every one added above 20).
4. Added generalised shell globbing everywhere I think it is useful, including
-sh/dx, dir
+sh/dx, dir, sh/files etc
5. Made dir more compatible with ak1a and added 'to' and 'from' call searching
it should now do everything that ak1a does except counts.
6. added similar functionality to kill command so that you can kill ranges, to
projects / spider.git / blobdiff
