- -------- history ----- this is not the complete history, read the guide!----
-
- Changes made in 3.63:
- Changed the behaivour of ESC in the RAW mode; a plain ASCII ESC is
- now sent, ViNCEd does no longer insert its private control sequence.
- However, complete control sequences are sent in the "english" mode,
- including those for "Toggle ESC", "Insert CSI" and "Insert ESC".
- ViNCEd sends now ESC [ instead of CSI for keyboard sequences if the
- seven bit mode is enabled.
- ViNCEd does no longer insert a line feed into the clipboard if a
- line was word-wrapped at the right border of the window.
- The line feed handling was changed. The old version emulated the
- SGI winterm behaivour, which is just plain wrong. I studied five
- terminal programs how to do this right, got six answers and
- implemented a seventh.
- Added emulation of some VT-xxx illnesses, especially handling of
- zero arguments in a CSI sequence (which I hate to do like this, but
- so what).
- Fixed characters sent with ^C to ^F. These were just wrong. Urgh.
- Fixed the ICONIFIED window path argument which did not work due to
- a former, uhm, bug fix, in one of the betas. Luckey, the code was
- (and still is) tolerant enough not to crash in this situation.
- Fixed some bugs in scrolling borders with the cursor movement
- commands.
- Added a function browser to the second keyboard page of SetVNC.
-
- Changes made in 3.62:
- Fixed a bug in the TAB expansion. Thanks, Andreas!
- Changed the Ctrl-C logic a bit, might avoid problems.
- Fixed a bug in SetVNC that might have caused crashes when
- shutting down the guide.
- Added "Save To" and "Load From" gadgets to SetVNC.
-
- Changes made in 3.61:
- Added support for Massimo's external toolbutton image class,
- the class itself and its documentation. Thanks, Massimo!
- Added the "PLAIN" window path argument, idea of
- Andreas Mixich.
-
- Changes made in 3.60:
- Just too much.
- Except quite a lot of bug fixes, this release introduces a new
- keyboard parser which allows to bind keyboard functions to
- any key you like. It introduced, too, a new preferences format
- that is based on plain ASCII text. Additonally, a new guide
- is included which contains a FAQ (frequently asked questions)
- and a new and detailed index. That's only the list of the most
- important changes. More has happened.
-
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Notes:
-
- Check the TOP_SECRET or ReadMe.First file in this archive!
- Especially, these SHOULD BE RUN FIRST before you start with
- the installation.
-
- VirusWorkShop seems to have trouble with the overlay file structure
- that is used by the SetVNC program.
- THIS IS NOT A VIRUS! It is a bugfix of the oldish CBM overlay
- manager which is really buggy!
-
- To trick VirusWorkshop, the SetVNC program in this archive is
- encoded. Use the "Decode" program from the "Extras" drawer to
- decode manually. The installer script has been updated to do
- this for you.
