- Hi all, i have received notice about some malfunction of tsthost v1.40.
- Thanks to the senders.
-
- One is on the COLOR command. This malfunction is active only if you running
- tsthost with the /K command to reduce the number of channels. With this option
- active, any COLOR command for window 0 or 5, (COLOR 0 x, COLOR 5 x), will cause
- the crash of the system.
-
- Another is in the pms routines: for example you connect another station, and
- make a normal packet qso. All is right. Now, you decide to pass your pms to the
- other station, so, in your tsthost, you do the PMS command. Well, tsthost will
- send the pms prompt, and accept any command from the remote users, but....
- the command will not be executed!
-
- TH140FX1.COM is a little program make to correct tsthost.exe. The program also
- do this correction/improvement:
-
- - Increased control on the received bid in fwd compressed forward. Without
- correction, if you receive in the same block 2 message that have the same bid
- and the bid is already received (improbably but possible), only the first
- was refused.
- - PMS message list, L command, will be displayed starting from the last page in
- the list, intead of the first.
- - The cursor, when you activate the editor, always have a corrispondance with
- the current cursor status, instead to atomatically switch into the insert
- mode.
- - If you press and do not depress the HOME keys in the pms list window,
- sometime the list do not display the firat page.
- - If you do send copy o send reply function, using ALT-C or ALT-R instead of
- the direct keyboard command SC SR, if start tsthost.in import while you are
- not in editor mode, the message lose the address.
- - CON_FILT entry level was incremented by 2 instead of 1, fixed
-
- To correct tsthost.exe, simple copy TH140FX1.COM in the tsthost.exe directory,
- next execute th140fx1. The tsthost.exe file will be corrected and you may
- delete th140fx1.com, the program is not more need.
-
- Maintain a backup copy of tsthost.exe, if others patch will be diffused, they
- must be executed always on the original tsthost.exe file....
