[About The Guide]
266) Renegade will now only allow a user to try to logon as many
times as allowed by "Max logon tries" in the system config.
Before, that option limited only password attempts. Now it
limits the number of times they can a different name.
267) Renegade should now avoid a CLASSIC file ratio problem. Before,
for example, if you required 1 upload for every 5 downloads,
the user would get hit with an "out of ratio" notice when they
had only downloaded ONE file! Now, it should wait until they
have download 5 files before it hits them with "out of ratio".
The same is true of the kbytes ratio.
268) User's can't find out the shuttle password unless they meet or
exceed autovalidation security levels, instead of new user
security levels.
269) Specifying a bad filename when extracting a message will no longer
cause a system error.
270) Added a "hatched" flag in the file records for external utilities.
It can be changed in the /Edit file command.
271) There is no longer a special logon process for the ACS event. It
will simply inform the user via ACSEA#.XXX before they logon that
a restricted user event is in effect, and if they are not able
to logon during the event, it will display ACSEB#.XXX and hang them
up.
272) The new Full Screen editor quoting is now available in the line
editor. Gone forever is line-by-line quoting!
273) When (E)diting a user in email, you will be prompted for the
system password.
274) New quote header MCI: @B displays the board name
275) Option Y under System Flagged Functions allows SysOp password
checking to be turned off completely.
276) Added support for 16800 (HST) and 19200 (Telebit) connect response
codes.
277) Changed the way Extended descriptions are entered. They are now
treated more like just extended descriptions rather than a separate
entity. When you enter a description, it will simply keep prompting
you until you hit enter on a blank line, or five lines are full
instead of asking "Do you want to add a verbose description?"
278) New OP options 28 and 29:
28 - Forces hotkeys ON
29 - Forces hotkeys OFF
A suggested use for this is when making emulations of other BBS
software in your menus; like PCB for example - you can force
hotkeys OFF.
279) Chat events now work properly.
280) See names ACS is now DL acs.
281) ANSI output has been sped up about 75% thanks to the use of an
undocumented DOS interrupt.
282) //T and //C are gone from the line editor, and //U is now /U
283) Added "READ ONLY" flag for file bases. A file base tagged
read only will NOT SORT or search for new uploads when
validating.
284) When reading messages, G will now (G)oto next base, and
(I)gnore messages will now set your last read pointer
to the last message.
285) When aliases are not allowed, Renegade will no longer allow a person
to enter a one word handle.
286) The WFC menu has been functionally 100% rewritten to be kinder
and gentler in multitasking environments. It should know give
up fair amounts of time slices to other tasks via int 28h.
287) Mutlinode chat has been completely rewritten. IT WORKS!
and rather well, I might add!
The following commands are functional in multinode chat:
/? - Help
/Q - Quit Chat
/C - change channel i.e. /C 5 changes to channel 5
/A - Action i.e. /A sighs would display John Smith sighs
/L - Lists all users (also indicates which users in your channel)
/P - Sends private message to node i.e /P 5 Sheesh! sends "Sheesh!"
to node #5!
288) Cmdkeys OE - Pause screen.
289) There is now an internal ARJ file lister - enter /5 for the
interior file list command line. Thanks to Chris Woodward for
providing the ARJ structures.
290) Made node chat help into a file (nodechat.xxx).
291) Renegade will now save the last conference the user was in.
292) Renegade will now buffer keyboard/remote input instead of ignoring
it. i.e.; you can now type ahead on most any prompt.
293) When the shuttle logon is in use, it should no longer allow
new users to apply for access by entering the shuttle
password, then typing "NEW" at the prompt.
294) The /P (private) command in multinode chat has been changed
to /H (hidden).
295) /P in multinode chat now allows you to page another user without
leaving chat.
296) /U in multinode chat lists all users online just like NO cmdkeys.
297) The OG cmdkeys toggle AC flags much like OF toggles AR flags:
Description: AC flag set/reset/toggle
MString: [ <function><flag> [...] ]
<flag> is a flag in LCVUA*PEKM1234
<function> may be one of the following:
+ Set flag
- Reset flag
! Toggle flag
More than one function/flag combination may be
specified. Case is ignored.
