`EasyFR' is an utility to help and handle File-Requests in an easyer way.
EasyFR 2.2 needs:
- Kickstart 2.0 (you will need at least 2.1 to run localization);
- MUI 2.2 (or updated version) installed;
- xpkmaster.library 2.4;
- traplist.library 5.2 (better 5.4);
These are some of the features:
- You can create and handle .REQ files to be sent to the BBS (with a
mailer) that should reply your request;
- You can read and select directly from a fidonet box (a Filelist) files
you want to request; selected entries will be copied in the .REQ file;
- You can handle fidonet box (Filelist) packed with any XPK library;
- Find Next & Find Previous functions in fidonet boxes;
- You can display info about nodes in nodelist (using traplist.library);
- You can edit a QuickList with most frequently used nodes;
- The mailer can be runned directly from EasyFR pressing one button;
- Simple management of InBound: directory;
- You can list and extract lha archives;
- EasyFR can associate a Filelist to a specific node (via traplist.library):
changing node will change filelist too;
- GUI can be modified by the user, this thanx Stefan Stunz and his
Magic User Interface;
- Localization: by now only english and italian are distributed;
- On-line help: pressing the HELP key, the AmigaGuide® help will be shown.
Help is context-sensitive;
As you can read, there is nothing really particular, but there seems that
other programs miss something.
Some can run TrapDoor, do not handle fido boxes (Filelists), others do not
support traplist.library, and I haven't seen any one supporting XPK
libraries.
`EasyFR' try to handle File Requests in a complete and easy way.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
What's new in EasyFR 2.1:
- Plain filelist load function entirely rewritten: it's 40% faster!
- "Sort by Date" function in InBound now sorts in decreasing mode.
- New: "Sort by Lenght" sorting method added.
- Added backup function (now works).
- Added Scan Inbound function.
- Added ASLFR_RejectIcons tag in the ASLRequest file for filelists
- Now filename > 16 char can be added in the .REQ
- Fixed the address dispaly (I hope): some times it prints "½"
- Now prints in addresses in 4D: if you insert "2:334/21" it prints
"2:334/21.0"
- EasyFR didn't save .REQ file when iconify. Fixed.
- Every Allocation is now done using Memory Pools
- If starting with a node without an associated filelist, it comes
an error message (Could not open filelist). Fixed.
- Added "Filelist Info" option from Project menu.
- Added Iconify item in the Project menu.
- Added a progress indicator & abort button for searching.
- Added a Proceed & Cancel button to the Set Filenote window.
- Added LZX support.
- New menu "REQ List".
- Added a Save entry in the REQ List menu.
- Added Append Backup in the REQ List menu.
- Added a full preconfiguration for first run.
- Now you can call node with empty f'req list (usefull for multinode BBSes)
- Catalog updated!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
What's new in EasyFR 2.2:
- Removed the Enforcer Hit (sorry, I forgot this last time...)
- ReadArgs() for setting up node and fido box from command line
- QuickList sort via Drag'n'Drop (MUI 3.x)
- Bubble Help with a separate catalog file (MUI 3.x)
- Bubble Help on/off switch
- French catalog added (hopefully)
- German catalog added (hopefully)
Future releases of this software are related to your support.
