Short: New fast areafix for TrapToss
Author: metin@stepout.tynet.sub.org (Metin Savignano)
Uploader: andre@melior.s.bawue.de (Andre Schenk)
Type: comm/fido
Idefix is a new fast and reliable areafix for TrapToss. This is the first
public pre-release. It is not a final release, but intended for feedback
to the author from anyone interested in using it. Nonetheless, it has been
beta-tested on several machines and found to work reliable. No bugs are
known.
Features currently available:
- Works tightly and comfortably with TrapToss.
- Well beta-tested on several Amiga systems.
- Optionally backs up your TrapToss.cfg before any modifications are done.
- LIST, QUERY, UNLINKED, and HELP may be requested either as % commands,
or as subject shortcuts.
- Remote maintenance using %FROM supported.
- Supports area access restrictions.
- Supports areas that downlinks MUST subscribe to.
- Automatically forwards requests for areas that you do not yet carry
to the appropriate feed, and adds them to your config as pass-thru.
- Automatically detaches pass-thru areas from your feed, if the last
downlink detaches from them.
- Supports both, separate configuration files, or the global configuration
file concept (GCF), as in fido.cfg.
- Obtains as much information as possible from TrapToss's config file,
keeping you from configuring the same stuff in a dozen different files.
- Designed with hardly any built-in limit, all resources are dynamically
requested, if and when they are required.
- Automatically uses your appriopriate AKA for the reply.
- Remote maintenance for other downlinks using %FROM.
- And some more nice features.
