Short: Updates `term' v4.7 to v4.7b
Author: Olaf `Olsen' Barthel <olsen@sourcery.han.de>
Type: comm/term
`term' v4.7b update
===================
This patch addresses a number of problems in `term' v4.7, plus a few bugs
that did not really get fixed in the v4.7a update, namely:
- Another last minute change that bit me. I made the dialer text box lines
a little smaller and took out some few lines that appeared to be useless.
Well, they weren't that useless after all. The changes cut off the message
box text. They now look like they did before.
- In the PhoneLog format call log files, host name and number were swapped
[Maik Schreiber].
- The job queue processing was broken for one type of job. Actually, there
was just one job around of this type. Startup scripts wouldn't execute
but crash the machine [Markus Dages].
- The pen allocation code could run forever due to a typo I made. When
is = != ==?
- The "Time to connect" settings only entered into the cost calculation,
but never had any effect on the time displayed on the screen.
- The "Print screen" and "Print clipboard" code was broken. `term' could
believe that during printing an error had occured before even the first
character was printed [Michael Jaccoud].
- For some features `term' would allow you append data to existing files,
such as when opening a capture file. With the "protective mode" enabled
you would be asked to confirm that you want to replace an existing file
before you would eventually get to confirm that you really want to append
data to it. I changed this, so you will see only one requester now
[Edith Goldstein].
- Added the last few V34 bps rates to the default list. The bps rate selector
also no longer rounds off baud rates to default values [Russ LeBar].
- If the serial device driver doesn't open and returns error #3 `term' now
pretends it was error #2. The MFC duart.device does this.
- The order in which you pick items from the quick dial menu now once again
affects the order in which they end up in the dial list.
- The fast! macro display was using one single operating system call that
was unavailable under Kickstart 2.04, crashing Intuition almost
instantly. Fixed [David Dares].
- Changed the way uploads from the upload queue take place. The upload list
is no longer locked until the transfer is finished.
- The ARexx "DIAL" command was entirely broken. It now finally does what
it was spec'ed to [Daniel Wicke].
- When adding new files to the upload list with the "Add files..." button
the upload process would get a hold of resources it would not return.
When doing a file transfer both `term' and the upload process would
eventually lock up.
- With the editor window open, the phonebook list display will no longer
have the selected entry jump around when using the cursor keys to move it.
- When capturing incoming text in a file and freezing the text buffer contents
data will no longer end up in the buffer, regardless of the text buffer
operating mode used [Luca Longone].
- The "Connect limit" was mistaken as being the number of seconds before
executing the "Limit macro". This has been fixed, it is now used as the
number of minutes before the macro needs to be executed [Andree Mädl].
- The phonebook entry editor is now split in two: the first page shows
the former left half of the window and the second page shows the former
right half of the window.

spatch Tool to apply the patch
Update-term4.7 Installer script to apply the patch
Source The source code files which changed since
v4.7 was released in October 1996.
How to apply this patch?
========================
Just use the supplied installer script, it will do all the messy work
for you which involves deciding with program type you are using (either
the 020+ version or the generic 68k version), making a backup copy of the
old program and last but not least applying the patch.
NOTE: Make sure that you use the most recent Installer V43.3 or
you might have problems applying the patch.
If the patch cannot be applied
==============================
If the patch still does not get applied, you can still apply it manually.
Open a shell window, then enter the following (assuming that you have the
spatch program in the shell search path and the patch file in the
right place):
spatch -oterm-47b -pterm-any-47b.pch term
(For the generic 68k version)
or
spatch -oterm-47b -pterm-020-47b.pch term
(For the 020+ version)
This will create the file "term-47b". Rename your old `term' file, then
rename "term-47b" to "term". That's all, folks.
Note that each patch file can be applied only to the corresponding
program version. You cannot update the generic 68k version with the
020+ patch file and the other way round. If the patch fails at first,
try the other patch file. If this still does not work, make sure you
have the original `term' v4.7 as found on Aminet.
Let me stress this: these patch files must be applied to the original
v4.7 files as found on Aminet. They cannot be applied to recompiled
versions or to files which already have the v4.7a patch applied.
