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.
