175) You can now configure your modem's flow control.  You can choose
CTS/RTS and/or XON/XOFF or no flow control.

176) Renegade now supports extended result codes for 7200,12000, and 14400
bauds.

177) Special effects are gone, and the logo is now manditory.

178) Renegade will now wait for the com port buffer to empty to
the user before disconnecting.

179) The restricted backspace flag has been replaced by a flag (U)
to restrict users from viewing any type of user listing.

180) Completely redid the Email waiting listing.  It now fixes descrepancies
in a much better way; it doesn't even tell you about them.  It also looks
a hundred times better.

181) The Copyright notices and Tagline are encrypted to prevent "problems".

182) "MString"S are now "Options" in menus.

183) The HISTORY.DAT file is now stored oldest record first, newest
record last instead of vice versa.  This way, the entire file does
not have to be rewritten every night.  The internal system event is
almost nil as far as time is concerned with this change and #156.

184) When you UNdelete email when using the "Read all email" command
(M at the WFCMENU), it will now increase the receiving user's mail
waiting indicator, rather than decreasing it as it does when deleting
mail.

185) Revamped the message extraction routine.

186) The mass email routines have been totally rewritten.  You can
now enter a list of users, one by one, using search strings rather
than being forced to enter a list of users by user number.

187) Added a registration number.

188) Removed the day rollover event.  It's so fast now, why bother
to even mention you're doing it?

189) If you don't answer the chat call, the system will now beep you
every 5 seconds until you do.  You can toggle this feature off in
system toggles.

190) When returning from a door exit, Renegade now reads the following
information BACK from the user file (so doors can update user info):

        SL              Filepoints      Download K      Mzscan recs
        DSL             Uploads         Msg Posts       Fzscan recs
        AR flags        Downloads       Email sent
        Status Flags    Upload K        Last read ptrs

191) When specifying "Download", you can now download ANY file or FILES
from any directory on the system you have access to!

192) Renegade now supports EXACT file sizes rather than just approximations
to the nearest 128 bytes.

193) When editing the system colors, there is now an option 'C' that will
set ALL user's colors to the system defaults.

194) A completely internal, QWK compatible offline mail system has been
installed!   It's been tested with about 5 different QWK readers, with
no problems.  It is implemented by the following new menu cmdkeys:

Offline reader:

!P - Set message last read pointers back to a certain date
!C - Create packet of all new messages in the bases in user's Zscan.
!D - Download the created .QWK Packet
!U - Upload a .REP Packet of replies
OP - Option 27 selects default archive type for the packet.

In the default menus supplied with Renegade, an offline mail menu is
supplied and is available by selecting ! at the main menu.

There is a separate (O) area in System Configuration for the offline
mail system's configuration.

195) The message coloring system has been moved so that colors are set
at read time, not at write time.  The tear color now supports a tear
color for offline mail reader Taglines.

196) The "!C" (create packet) command has been removed. the !D (download
QWK packet) command now creates AND transfers the created packet.

197) The sysop can now define a "Local QWK path" which is the path for
his LOCAL QWK reader.  When a QWK or REP packet is downloaded or uploaded
it will be copied to or from (all respectively) this directory.

198) The offline mail system will now has a nice display of what it's
doing while making the QWK packet.

199) The QWK function will abort if there are no new messages in the
packet.

200) Renegade will now correctly display file sizes greater than 999k. It
will display files up to 99999k!

201) There are no longer 5 "message base sysop" bytes in the user record.
There is a new acs string in the NEW MBASES.DAT format called "SysOp ACS"
If the user has that ACS, they can perform sysop functions on said message
base.  Works just like the old "Message base sysop" stuff, only ten thousand
times easier and more "in sync" with the way Renegade's access system works.

202) A new File System configuration option, Daily Limits, allows you to
completely disable the max downloads and download k per day system.

203) The "ME" (enter email) cmdkeys bug has been fixed. You can once again
specify default subjects for email in your menus.

204) The routines to calculate time of file transfers and transfer rates
has been redone to be FAR more accurate.
