- What's new?
-
- This file does not necessarily document *ALL* the changes to the PMS code, just
- the ones I remembered to add! Very minor changes are often not worth including.
- Internal changes that do not effect the outwards operation of the PMS, and
- small cosmetic changes, will not normally be included either.
-
- VERSION 2.xx
- ============
- Version 2.xx is NOT compatible with any 1.xx or 2.0x versions.
- If you are upgrading from a version 1.xx you must delete ALL the existing
- files and directories, and install the PMS from scratch.
-
- Versions prior to 2.30
- ----------------------
- If you are upgrading from a version prior to 2.30 then many things have changed.
- I complete re-installation may be the best option, and a good read of the DOC
- files is essential! This file now only contains changes from 2.30 onwards.
-
- ** Existing registration numbers are still valid **
-
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- 2.30a
- -----
- Switched to a new version of the compiler I use to compile the bulk of the PMS
- code. Some new compiler features should enable me to reduce the code size a
- little, and it should, in theory, be a bit faster.
-
- 2.30b
- -----
- Removed the config command PAGEAUDIO. The default page audio state is now set
- by the AUDIO command.
-
- Added the config command AUDIOTIMES. Can be used to set a range of times when
- audio is allowed, to automatically silence all audio outside of the specified
- times (like when I am in bed asleep!) Only operates when AUDIO is set to TIMED
-
- The sysop AU command is now 3 three way toggle, and sets AUDIO to ON, OFF or
- TIMED
-
- Removed the config command DIRECT.
- The PMS should now not do any direct screen updates when running under DV
-
- Some changes have been made in the way control codes are interpreted when
- displayed on the screen, and when sent to the printer.
- You may need to modify any SCREENFILTER and PRINTERFILTER commands.
- See the notes.doc file for details.
-
-
- 2.30c
- -----
- .CC (Carbon Copy) lists may now contain other CC groups.
-
- When importing messages from disk, the @BBS field is now checked against the
- WP file, and substitutions made depending on the setting of USEWP in the
- config file (as is done for normal messages).
-
- Config command SCREEN removed. The screen mode is now read from the video bios
- set-up. The PMS supports screen modes 80x25/43/50 Use the DOS command MODE to
- set the required screen mode before running the PMS. i.e. MODE CO80,43
-
- Reverse forward option /R added to forward file (fwdfile.lst).
-
- 2.30e
- -----
- Added the option a specifing multiple files download areas (pseudo drives).
- The config command FILES <fsp> is replaced by multiple FILESDIR <fsp> commands.
-
- Added the config command LOGOPTION to control what events are recorded in the
- log file.
-
- New version of support program DELUSER.EXE
-
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- 2.31a
- -----
- Fixed bug with automatic FBB remote sysop password exchange.
-
- Fixed problem with missing line feeds in printer/capture output.
-
- 2.31b
- -----
- Added config option, USENIC <n>, to control the use of full NIC addresses when
- doing compressed forwarding. Some BBS sysops complain if their users use the
- full address when sending messages, and some complain if they don't!!!
- Now you can choose....
