THE PHONEBUG HAS BEEN FIXED, IT COULD GIVE YOU STRANGE THINGS IN THE FIRST
RECORD OF THE PHONEBOOK: TAG ALL GOOD ENTRIES, PRESS C (COPY) AND COPY
ENTRIES TO A NEW PHONEBOOK, THEN YOU SHOULD NOT GET ANY MORE TROUBLE.
! When choosing a predefined modem, the HostInit string would be set to
the RING string, just type ATS0=0^M in HostInit next time.
! When using the filefinder, a larger path could be returned, which could
mess up other configfile entries.
! Now sending startup Initstring after Hostmode has been used
! When using a wildcard as nodelist filename like: NODELIST.* the latest
nodelist will be used, but only if the extension is a number like .001
or .332. Otherwise the complete name can be used.
! Fixed so you have two nodelists which can be searched
! You can now enter nodenumbers in autorequest, then the phonenumber will
be retrieved from the nodelist.
! When entering a nodenumber, you can now just enter the last part of the
number, then the first numbers of the number when be assumed.
! UPS, TERMINAT.LGO was needed anyway, inserted again.
+ Alt-N will send the active username.
+ VT52 is now functioning
+ Terminal options: Screen Scroll can be turned off, will also not wrap lines
! Had to move all Shift F1-F10 to Ctrl-Shift F1-F10 to make room for
F1-F10,Shift F1-F10, Ctrl F1-F10, which in the future could be edited.
! When uploading ASCII and not using statusline, the buttom line was
not removed.
+ New toggle to allow Ctrl-codes in capture files
! When using the standard ANSI emulation, ESC J 0J 1J 2J now clears the screen
correctly, use this emulation for VT100 places.
+ Screen & colors: Fancy fadeout feature for VGA
+ Zmodem: % showing how much of the file we have transfered
! Now reporting the correct runtime-error address
! If BigConnect was turned off, a timer was not reset
! AKA problem in point system was sending 2:0/0, all *:0/0 will be skipped
+ Cost management: Start calculating costs at once after number is dialed
Parameter show before/after has been split to 2 parameters.
! Would not change to the correct Terminal type at connect
! If larger screen than 80 was used and screen centered, you could write
on the statusline
! Now removing blank lines when choosing protocol
# Cleaned up code and optimized libraries for faster performance
* GIFLINK has now replaced CMP as an external protocol, works perfectly
* Move Alt-G Hostmode to Alt-M Misc functions, it really belongs there
! Fixed so when downloading the download path will be shown
+ Added BIOS screen writes since a lot of blind people has demanded that.
! Sometimes the A-drive was searched, this is fixed, the problem has been
there for many months, but after I gave some sourcecodes for multitasking
away to Soren Ager, he found out there was a bad int call. Thanx. real luck
+ Added enhanced keyboard toggle, and external utilities works with F11,F12
+ In the filemanager the files could now be sorted by extensions
+ Anywhere when editing a string you can press ALT-A to select from the
ascii selector.
+ Key mapping is now complete. Press Alt-= to change (Alt-'). You can define
which keymap to use for each emulation, try looking in General options
*.KBD is now supplied and must be placed in the PHONE directory
Had to move Shift-Tab (Add linefeeds), to Alt-5
! Fixed the tagger so it now also identifies 'NAME .EXT' filenames on screen.
! Fixed the exitstring would not turn off DTR (<<).
! The wardialer would not exit sometimes.
+ Hostmode: If a FILES.BBS is found you will be asked to show it (ANSI)
! When using an extension in the filemanager, wrong directory was changed
to afterwards
! Fixed Delete-End-Of-Line when using more than 80x25 and centerscreen
+ Password checking (Toggles): A list with around 1000 BAD passwords can be
searched each time you enter a password. (PASSWORD.BAD).
+ CPS ADJUST: I got real tired of people believing that DSZ,GSZ really has
a CPS rate that is 5% higher (they call it throughput, because they add
the overhead), when using 2400 baud GSZ says 255 CPS while the other end
says 240. In Zmodem Internal options, you can now define how many procent
you want Terminate to add, the default is 5%. But DON'T believe if someone
claims to get REAL 1800-1900 CPS with 14400 modem with packed files.
If a file is packed with ex. ARJ i cannot be packed by other programs.
Ymodem-G is still the fastest oneway protocol, because it has no overhead.

# TO INDICATE THAT WE ARE OVER THE HILL VERSION 0.50 WAS RELEASED.
From now on it will be mostly bugsfixes and manual writting.
But also some extra things will be added along the way.
You will not have to upgrade Terminate manually anymore. In the future all
configuration will have an upgrade tool if changes are made.
The configuration is now default called TERMINAT.CFG
+ The Point system (Alt-F7), has been made, a very simple but powerfull mail-
system where you also can send or request files.
Importing passwords (PASSWORD.FD) and modem-flag strings (MODEM%TASK%.FD)
from FrontDoor, if FD= is specified.
It has an autorequest funktion where you can enter 10 phonenumbers to dial
more about this later. Use only with permission from your sysops.
+ Commandline: /BOSS will call the boss and then exit Terminate.
* All commandline parameters has changed the = to a :, so /MODE=4 should now
be called /MODE:4, this was made because the = sign is removed when using
%1 %2 %3 parameters in batchfiles.
+ W in phonebook shows warning days
+ * in phonebook works like * in filemanager
+ R Retry when dialing will dial same number again
* Retry and Space will now use Redial pause.
+ Found SoftIce BackDoor (Int 3h) installation check, if SoftIce is loaded
or in config.sys Terminate will not register correctly.
TurboDebugger detection found, so now crackers will have more trouble if
they use those two debuggers. The singlestep interrupt must also not be
touched.
# Wasted 5 extra hours on sleeping, still misses many hours
! Fixed so Terminate not hangs if wrong comport was used
* Worked again on the filefinder, now you can disable single drives from
being searched in general options 1. This is good to turn off CD-ROM's
or network drives. When searching you can press SPACE for next drive.
* Instead of the Scan all drives, each drive can be disabled from scanning
when starting the Filemanager. General options 1.
- The TERMINAT.LGO feature was removed, i messed up something
+ Registered users can now remove the opening screen for faster startup.
+ Alt-A..Alt-Z in the filemanager now works as QUICK keys, If pressed
Alt-A then the cursor will be positioned on the next file starting with
A.
! Fixed hostmode, did login when a user called.
+ At IEMSI logons, local time where BBS is located is printed on screen.
+ If tagging from BBS list, descriptions will now be saved in FILES.BBS
in Inbound or the downloadpath.
+ /CALL: has been made to the point system, allow you to call a system from
a batch file.

# BIG ANSI CONTEST, Type TIN-ROOF.ANS for more information on how you can win
a free key for Terminate
! Fixed a bug in the Alt-S function, could send the wrong password if
several entries was tagged in the phonebook.
! Fixed IEMSI could send the wrong password if several entries was tagged
+ If several entries are tagged when a connect is made, all entries with the
same 6 first characters will be untagged, so systems with several lines
can be untagged, when a connection was made to one of them.
+ Changed DISKINFO (Alt-F,I). So you now also can see current directory for
all drives at one time, the paths will be resolved into full network or
subst/join names.
* When using IEMSI, if the terminal is set to ANSI, it will be specified in
the IEMSI package so the other end knows we only want ansi.
* When using the system searcher (Alt-F8) a Wargames monologue has been made.
(Try LIST GAMES etc. you must know the password or see the movie WarGames)
+ The Hostmode is now completely finished with all commands available, also
the callback feature is made, upload/download/chat everything.
The hostmode can be started automatic by using the /HOST on the commandline
Try TERMINAT ? for a list of all available options
+ A Keyclick option was made to make it easier for some blind people.
# Wasted 2-3 days on spending xmas with my family, booooorrinng
! Fixed bug in Import defineable BBS-list
# Looked at Procomm Plus for Windows 1.00. Got very dissapointed no new ideas
that could be used in Terminate+too big+too slow.
+ Added import for Procomm Plus for Windows 1.00 (Information)
* In Doorway mode if screen is 25 lines long the statusline will be turned
off. Also Ctrl,Alt,Shift menubar will be turned off and restored afterwards
+ Made a timer on IEMSI window, so ansi can be detected by SuperBBS and
others, default to 1 second.

╙─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╜
+ Added CD-ROM support for filemanager, now reporting if it's a CDROM instead
of reporting wrong disksize, also CDROM drives will turn into small
letters in top of manager. Only CD-ROM drives using MicroSoft CD Extensions
can be detected (MSCDEX).
+ Checked Telix 3.20 still using same phonebook, no need for changes
+ For each user host settings can be defined for hostmode, callback, access,
prefix, number. This is made for the later internal hostmode.
+ 2 blind people requested that the hardware cursor should follow the menubars
so that was off course made. The cursor is not visible so people without a
speech-synth will not have any use for this. The cursor will be placed on the
first char different from space ' Terminal options' Then the cursor will
be placed on the first T, to speed up things a little.
+ New toggle to disable complete search of drives A-Z when starting file-
manager, someone complained about it took too long to start it, still if
you have disabled the drives, you can press . to read both windows and
check all drives.
************* THIS IS SOOOOOOOO BAD
+ Alt-F6,T has been made. It's now possible to search a filelist for a
keyword or a wildcard (max 250), then you will be presented with the
filename and the description from the filelist. VERY GOOD FEATURE
Now you can specify the directory where your unpacked filelists are, and
you can select then from a menu.
*************
! Fixed a bug in the phonebook, which would mess up the Manual record
and the first record, remember just to tag all good entries and copy
them to another phonebook, then your problems will be solved.
! Ctrl-F1..F10 now also works in chatmode
! Fixed timer-bug when got carrier, now resetting ok
! Fixed bug in Phonebook report, it would use totalcosts instead of
Costs used last month. Also now asking first before updating monthly costs
+ All places where you can enter currency, costunits, costs used; You can now
use the decimalpoint defined. (1,00 0,25 ,25 1,1 10000,99 10,999)
+ Expanded filefinder to 20 files, and now Terminate will continue searching
even if 20 files was found, so you must press any key to start choosing.
+ Import dir in Tagmenu (Alt-F6), allows you to import the filenames from
a certain directory, use this at systems which can check if the file
allready exists on the system, so it wont be deleted after upload.
+ Alt-P has been enhanced, with fast keys and possibilities of saving the
new parameters in the configuration
+ In Alt-U systeminformation, a small speed index tester has been made.
+ When tagging a GIF-file in the filemanager, then GIF-information will be
shown in the buttom line (GIF87a 640x480x256)
+ Began working on the hostmode (Alt-G, Start Host), it will be finished in
the next version.
! It is now possible to abort while copying several files in the filemanager
also some small enhancments.

╙─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╜
+ A '.' will reread the directory in the current filemanager window
! Decrypting phonebook would mess up time used and other stuff.
* Made scrollback buffer work with any size of screen (132*60,132*44)
+ In filemanager up to 8 last positions in each window will be remembered=
when pressing cursor left, the cursor will be placed on thge previous pos.
+ Filemanager, a compare menu, which allows you to tag files present/not
present in the other window, useful for testing contents of directory.
* Capture will now filter of any non ASCII codes. To capture ansi/avatar
screens, you must use the PageDown and Ascii feature
+ If backup is on, configuration will be renamed to .CBK before saving a new
+ Center screen, new option which allows you to center screen if you are
using more than 80 (100,132 etc.) columns in SuperVGA mode and has a
80 char terminal in the other end, like RA/SBBS/QBBS all for now.
+ By pressing alt-l,t,T in phonebook it is possible to edit capturefile
if defined. Also available by pressing alt-l with editing entry.
+ Alt-0 can be used to turn on/off Auto capture, Also defined as a toggle
in the Toggles menu.
! Maybe found the bug that would mess up the phonebook, please report again
if you find anything. Try first copying all entries to a new book and then
see if you can get the error again, remember just to press Home, and exit
phonebook, then all should be ok again.
+ Phonebook report (Alt-D,O) has been expanded to also write out each entry
+ Now saving DOS screen, if /F (Only filemanager is started)
+ When /F is started, the overlay file will not be loaded = much faster load
+ WordWrapper in Chatmode (can be turned on/off in toggles)
+ Someone send me a Qmodem Pro 1.0 (6.0?) phonebook, so a import option for
Qmodem Pro has been made, if you have a terminal program which is popular
and want to get a import option for it, you must:
Make a new phonebook with 2 entries, the first entry must be filled out
in systemname: NAME.............. and the rest with dots or something
else than spaces. You must also fill out other field with number.......
and so on. Entry 1 must be set to COM1, entry 2=COM2 Entry 1 = 2400 baud
Entry 2 = Max baud. It is easier if you send me the terminal program.
+ Changed Screen and colors, so another mode can be defined and can be used
from Alt-M. Tseng and XGA is default value. Soon autodetect will be made.
+ DirSize in filemanager, When pressing Z a total of the current and all
sub directories will be calculated in a window. Works almost as
FS /S /T (Filesize from Norton utilties)
+ Killtree has been implemented, if you are trying to delete a directory
from the filemanager and the directory has entries or subdirectory, you
will be asked if you like the entire sub-structure to be deleted. Work
almost like NCD RMTREE from norton 6.0
+ When only copying 1 file, it is possible to enter a new filename, so the
file will be renamed while copying. This also works with MOVE file.
+ Ascii download made, will now work so it captures all raw data, so you
can steal ansi pictures or whatever you need, also showing how many bytes
downloaded in statusline.
+ Faster and more reliable IEMSI logons
* Aborting internal zmodem must faster
* Everything is centered, so Terminate should work in all textmodes perfect.
Try also to press right mousebutton in the statusline, for mousebar.

+ Now reserving all free memory at start, when shelling without swapping
the memory will be shrinked down, so much more memory will be freed without
we have to swap, useful for external protocol,editor ect. i have 200kb more
free at my place. This is mostly for people who does not have the
possibillity of swapping to XMS/EMS or for speed reasons. When pressing
Alt-J at my place, I have 280kb free without doing any swapping.
+ When UL/DL a cost estimate will be shown
+ Worked on copy function, now Attributes/time will be processed correct.
! Report of last years costs, was wrong, corrected (Alt-D, O)

+ 3 different download path can be selected for a phoneentry, no need to
convert phonebook, used logonchar, which wasn't in use.
You can now use Alt-R to change to another downloadpath (recievepath).
Debug is moved to Alt-N.
+ Global menu: download path can be choosed
* Reworked Filefinder, if files are found in entered path, you will be allowed
to choose without searching entire drive.
If no drive is specified, lets say \DOS\FORMAT.* then first current drive
will be searches then all other drives starting with C: ending at Z:, off
course only drives available will be searched and the current drive will not
be searched twice.
+ Audio control, which allows you to force sound off in the night
+ When importing from nodelist, you could add a number after stripping so
+39-3535353 will be imported as 03535353, added default if Italy, need
to know if other countries use that, send crash mail. Once again, it's
important that you run COUNTRY = .... in your CONFIG.SYS, just when
Terminate is configured the first time, then all kind of information will
be ripped from there, like currency, decimalpoints, seperators, timeformat.
! Fixed when entering directories as drives D:\ then it would try to create
path and say could not create directory.
! Encryption of configuration has been fixed.
+ Videomode can now be set from screen/colors menu, which also has been
rearranged. Terminate will work with screensizes up to 20000 fields.
Which could allow 132 columns times 150 lines, columns is not finished yet
but i will work on it. You can set values in Screen/colors just like
Frontdoor.
You will now be able to change to custom mode in misc.functions (Alt-M)
+ Faster scrolling in phonedir/filemanager
* Alt-N debug has moved to Shift-Esc and can be used all over the program
+ Made a lot of friends for the snake in the screenblanker, so he wont get
lonesome
+ AutoOpenCapture, if an entry in the phonebook has a defined capturefile
it can be opened automagically at connect if this toggle is on.
+ You can now choose in toggles if dialer should abort+hangup when pressing
Esc or Return

+ /MONO is gone, instead /MODE can be used in commandline, then I won't make
any funny calls to found out your adapter, if you have troubles with your
adapter, try this switch
+ Fixed capture bug.
+ /C= can now be used to define another configuration file, you can also
use environment variables here, Try TERMINAT ?
+ Alt-J+Alt-X can now be used from Phonebook and filemanager
+ Scrollback buffer, Pgdn,pgup,Home,end works correct now
+ Mouse support in terminal mode, when pressing left button char under mouse
cursor will be sent to the other end, you don't have to press directly on
the char to be sent, the nearest will be scanned and send.
! Fixed Tempo/duration problem with ANSI-music, who could know that you had
to say (600 Div (Tempo Div 4)) Div Duration to get the correct length of a
note in 1/10 sec. Maybe I should study music instead.
Also now support staccato 3/4,normal 7/8,legato 1/1 and DOTS pause
Full ANSI-music support should now be available, only that MF will be
ignored and all music played in the background.
! Fixed also a pointer bug in the background music buffer, which caused
Terminate to hang when exiting. Yesssss, I got it, REAAL annoying bug.
- removed beta expire feature, so people not will be warned anymore
+ \ in filemanager, will jump to root directory
+ Alt-2 will first reset music buffer if playing
+ Pressing Right mouse key on statusbar will toggle an between
normal statusbar and 3 different alfabars.
! Uploadpath when using external protocol was sometimes added.
! The Fillarea routine, messed up sometime, which caused the GEDIT BBS
editor to erase line when pressing return.
+ The mouse can now be hold down and mark a word, when released the whole word
will be sent to port, just like Telemate.
PHONEBOOK TROUBLES
# If you have problems with garbage in the phonebook, tag all good entries
and copy them (P) to a new phonebook, then your problems will dissapear.
They reason is that the convert program was buggy, when you have done this

+ Screen blanker in terminal mode has been added after X seconds, it's a
Novell 3.11 like snake which moves across the screen.
+ If a runtime error occurs, the screen will be dumped into ERRORS.LOG
together with information about the error.
! Fixed some major problems with the swapper, which caused Terminate to
say Could not load command.com or equal. FIXED. This was a good one.
