Release 5.1
- Due to a stupid bug the users namefield was cleared after returning from
UserOn when the ~F parameter was used in a "Eat at Joes" string.
Release 5.0
- Support for RemoteAccess 2.50.. Finaly *Sight!*
- Removed bugs from the hidden bit handling for sysops.
- Removed a buglett which messed up the screen slightly when the chat
indicator was shown.
- Added FakeOn.exe, an utility to add fake users to the UserOn.bbs file.
See fakeon.doc for more information.
- Added some meta-commands to the "Eat at joes" string.
~F First name
~N Full name
~A Handle
~C Location
- Add random string support. With RA250 you have the possibility to
show a UserOn description from EVERY menu item. If such a description
has the form !xxx or !xx? UserOn will translate it and show the language
string with the number xxx. If the last character is a questionmark,
it will be translated to a number between 0 and 9.
Release 4.4
- Added some spaces around the namen/handle.
- Added support for more multitaskers. UserOn should give timeslices
for DV, OS/2, Windows 2 and 3 and PCMOS.
Release 4.3
- Some minor improvements, TASK env. support and support for the
*N macro in logfiles.
Release 4.2
- My BBS got 2 more lines making a total of 9.. And that's the maximum
UserOn can support at this moment. It also meant some new bugs which are
solved. UserOn now checkes for the maximal number of nodes which fit on the
user's screen. This is (screenlength-7) Div 2 ( (25-7) div 2 makes 8..)
When the maximum is found the Eat at Joe's are automaticaly disabled
too. UserOn locked up due to that on my machine!
- I have a new (prefered) internet address: gerhard@loipon.wlink.nl
Release 4.1
- Solved a bug which could hang the line when a use hung up
while UserOn was waiting for a linenumber to send a message too.
- Added new semafore files for the new frodo
- The *N can now be used in the logfile names to..
Release 4.0
- the RA 2.00 release
Version 4.0B3
- Implemented the RA200 support. The only thing I'm not sure of is the
MODEM.RA file. I quess it follows the same routine as the CONFIG.RA and
EXITINFO.RA. First the current dir is checked, if not found the RA dir.
Version 4.0B2
- Forgot to adjust some language strings..
Version 4.0B1
- Got the 1.20 strucs and adjusted useron.
- The new status 255 first looks for a userdoes. If it exist it is used,
otherwise the rediculous 10 char description is used..
- Added the new status strings to the languagefiles.
- If the sysop uses UserOn and one of the users tried to page him an
red ! is shown between the node and the name.
- WhosOn disappeared. Use HandyMan for that...
Version 3.7
- Added extra checks for the UserOn.bbs info. If strings are longer than
they should be the record is concidered invalid. Illegal characters are
filtered out.
- Added negative semafores. Put a ! in front of the path and the text is
only shown when the semafore isn't there. See the semafore file for an
example.
- Forgot to close one filehandle. Solved too..
- Included a greek languagefile. You need the greek.com EGA/VGA driver which
is included with the greek.ral file.. With special thanks to my wife who
did the translations..
- Added an optional second parameter to WIPE110. The path to the semaphore
directory. If given, the RABUSY.* files are also deleted..
Version 3.4, 3.5, 3.6
- Hmpz. Probably I got confused with the versionnumbers. Sorry..;-)
- Handyman disappeared again.. Got into the mood and made a standalone
product out of it. Look for the file "HANDYxx.zzz" at my supportboards,
or SDS-RA. Handy is still free. It's just to big to include here..
- Added a semafore option due to popular request.. The idea is simple When
you have a file named SEMAFORE.<LANGUAGE ID> in the UserOn directory that
file is read on startup time. Every line in the file (which is a simple
asciifile) contains a filename including path and an informative text.
UserOn checks the semaforefiles when there's no user on a line. If found,
the text is shown, if not the sysdoes is shown, if not the default text is
shown. You can use up to 16 semafores.
- a real hidden feature: when someone is viewing the useron info, and (s)he
presses the spacebar, the info is updated immediatly.
- The DoIt pascal unit is replaced by an easier to use unit UOSYS.PAS
- Some small internal changes.
Version 3.3
A bad day for releases probably.... 3.2 had some (a lot.;( bugs left..
- UOFix seemed to look for A.KEY instead of RA.KEY
- Added a "Eat at Joe's" type commercial option. If a textfile
JOE_USER.<LANGUAGE ID> is found in the UserOn directory, the text in this
file scrolles along the last line of the screen. Nice for new-years whishes
and such. The language ID is the same as the language ID's for the language
file. See the demo files for more detailed info.
- Thrown away WhosOn and included handyman.. See for yourself..;-)
- UserOn now sends the handle in an online message if the -AKA toggle is
used.
Version 3.2
- Added some more utils.
WhosOn UserOn alike utility for dos
UOFix Fix damaged records in the useron.bbs
- Some internal changes
Version 3.1
- UserOn was still looking in the RA directory (System dir) for SYSDOES
files.. Should be the SemDir, like the USERDOES files...
- Removed the extra spaces between the <*> and the username if (s)he had the
quietflag set... Though I already removed thatone.. Oh well..
- Added some utils:
Wipe110 Builds a clean UserOn.bbs
MakeDoes To make SysDoes and UserDoes files from within batch files.
Version 3.0
- RELEASE
Version 3.0b2
- Some little internal changes
- Added the -AKA parameter. When used, useron show's the handle instead
of the name.
- Hidden users are no longer shown.
- If you use a seperate semafore directory, useron probably can't find
the userdoes files of older doors anymore.. Sorry..
Version 3.0B1
- The multilanguage version off useron! See the *.DEF files in the
USONLANG.ZIP file for details..
- Prepared useron for RA 1.10
- Removed a bug which ruined the memory sometimes when a user aborted a
message.
- UserOn now uses the SEMAFORE direcory for its UserDoes and message
files!!
Version 2.6
* Fixed a bug which did hang the BBS if a user dropped the carrier while
writing an online message.
* Renamed the [S]ave option in the editor to [S]end
(and in the dutch version from [B]ewaar to [Z]end
Version 2.5
Changed 2 things:
* UserOn now checkes for online mail again.. It didn't do that in the 2.4
update.
* It's also possible to make SYSDOES.<NodeNr> files now. they work the same
way as the USERDOES.<NodeNr>, but they are only checked for when there's
no user online on a node. You can use it to tell the other lines
that a line is maintaining the system, you are playing games on that
node, and.. If you're not using the shell to mailer option, you can
make a SYSDOES to tell the world when a user is logging in, just put
a copy command (see above) in the fall through part of the batchfile.
Oh well, just a gadget..;-)
Version 2.4b2
* Argh.. Lot's of problems with memory managment.. Somehow it would go right
producing exeption #13's here etc. So I kicked all the heap stuff out!
* Made a dutch version
* Shuffeled the lines in the useron.dat once again
* Added a line which is shown when a user is writing a message to an
other line. f.e. Two users are looking in useron, one is writing a
message to the other, the line of the writer shows:
Is typing a message to <Name of addressee>
* Removed some little bugs and cleaned the code a little.
Version 2.4b1
- Rewrote the useron door from scratch. The code was messed up and it seemed
like a nice occasion for some cleaning up.
- Used the new RAdoor 3.0 (not released yet, the docu's.....)
This means: More sysop control and a lot of structural changes
It also means a new editor. I didn't implement the EDIT and DELETE
lines as I did implement those though.. Anyhow, I'm not sure, but
I think they are seldom used in this door anyhow.
- Added an extra line to the useron.dat
- A nice new feature for curiose people.. As long as the door waits for
userinput (and is showing the Usersonline info) the screen is updated
every 10 second... You can realy see what the users on the other line
are doing now..;)
Version 2.3
- Reduced the minimal time needed to enter the door to 1 minute..
- Added the file UserOn.Dat. You can define your own messages now!
See the demofile for details. The file UserOn.Dat is expected in
the same directory as the UserOn.Exe. As usual with my door though
you can overrule this with the environment variable USERON. Just put
SET USERON=<Path to datfile> in your autoexec and it will be found.
This is ONLY needed when the file isn't in the same directory as the
UserOn.exe main program!!
==============================================================================
Version 2.1 & 2.2
- Got rit of some typo's
- Removed a bug that showed QUIET on lines where noone was on..
- Removed a little bug which did put the Press enter line directly after
an errormsg..
==============================================================================
Version 2.0
Added the option to send an online message too.. This isn't my way of
providing a real multiline chatter, but it makes things more decent as
the user get's only one UserOn list. Further I provided an editor to
write longer on-line messages.. (up to 20 lines) which can be edited.
As simple line-editor (but it looks great ansi/avatar too...;-)
If you want to give the users the possibility to send online messages
add the parameter -LINES:<NoLines> to the commandline.
If NoLines is 0, NO messages van be send (same as not putting the parameter
on the commandline) if NoLines is greater than 20 the maximal msglength of
20 lines can be used.. Every number in between puts a maximum on the msglength.
If here's already a NODE??.RA found, the text is appended.
==============================================================================
Version 1.2
Found that useron didn't work ok under DV. Found a bug in one of my libraries,
and the problem is solved.
Also added a SysOp override, as I don't want to show up in the 'Users today'
list. (Certainly not while testing..) But have no problems with users seeing
me online.. Just add a -SYSOP:ON to the commandline and you're on the list
whatever the 'ExcludeSysopFromList' field is saying..
==============================================================================
Version 1.1
Removed the LiveSystems commercial on top of the screen and tried to make it
look as much as possible as the RA UsersOn command..
Also fiddled around with the colors a little..
