- Release 1.1 - Released 7/31/95
-
- Note: This list can also be found at:

- http://www.teamos2.org/homeside/lwpftp/whatsnew.html
-
- 1) Corrected a minor problem with lwpftpnt.exe not allowing multiple pipe
- clients. This only affects *future* Lynn's WorkPlace products.
-
- 2) Support NetSuite's FtpServer in .dir file parser.
-
- 3) Corrected empty mailbox handling in non-destructive pop3 client.
-
- 4) Support two flavors of VAX/VMS's FtpServer in .dir file parser.
-
- 5) Don't automatically detransfer failed transfers. This is preliminary to
- support REGET for completing partial transfers as well as preserving newsgroup
- contents in upcoming LWPNews.
-
- 6) Support DePopulate on folders - all non-transferred Ftp Files are deleted
- with subsequently empty Ftp Folders deleted also - through all subfolders
- of the folder being DePopulated. DePopulate is on Populate conditional
- cascade only on populated folders.
-
- 7) Transfer conditional cascade to support Binary (default) and Ascii transfers.
-
- 8) Drop/put support with shadow of dropped/putted object left in Ftp Folder.
- Individually enabled on a folder-by-folder basis with a new check box on the
- URL settings page.
-
- 9) Transfer And Open is now the default for double-click. If you only want
- to transfer, use the RMB popup menu. Transfer cascade also has Transfer And
- Open option. Both Open options are only based on the default (binary) transfer.
-
- 10) Directory listings are no longer stored with a .dir extension. Instead,
- they are named after the parent folder with () around them. This sorts them
- (in most instances) to the top of a sorted folder. They are also created
- within the WPS instead of lwpftpnt. This causes them to show up *before*
- the parsed Ftp Files begin appearing (finally).
-
- 11) Titles are now used to track the remote filename on both FAT *and* HPFS
- drives. Titles are case sensitive within Ftp Folders to be fully compatible
- with Unix ftp sites.
-
- 12) Translation of number 11 is that FAT drives are now *fully* supported for
- Ftp Folders and Files! Regardless of file/folder name characters and length!
-
- 13) Population has been moved out of the support process (lwpftpnt.exe) and
- into the WPS. Performance has improved, but is still not stellar. Primarily,
- the population moved to support the title use for FAT support.
-
- 14) Directory listings are now retrieved from remote servers on one thread
- with the population occurring on a different thread (per folder instead of
- queued).
-
- 15) Progress dialogs now obey the OS/2 system animation settings *including*
- the open/close sounds that may be attached to that event.
-
- 16) A new "Remote Delete" menu option is available on Ftp Files. It will
- ask the FTP server to delete the file and will then delete the local Ftp File
- object if it has not been transferred.
-
- 17) A new "Access Parent" menu option is available on Ftp Folders. This will
- create a new Ftp Folder referencing the parent (via ..) of the selected Ftp
- Folder. The new folder will be automatically opened and populated.
-
- 18) A bug was fixed that caused objects to lose their identity if a transfer
- was cancelled or encountered an error. The Ftp File object will now retain
- its settings.
