Welcome to Areafix v1.20!
This latest Areafix release builds on the strong foundation laid
by Greg Dawson in his v1.00 and v1.10 releases. The Areafix.Prn
and Areafix.Use files have been updated along with the program
so you'll have the latest information available. Don't be afraid
to Read The Fine Manuals. <g>
If you're installing Areafix for the first time, you can use the
Sample.Ctl file as a starting point for building your own
Areafix.Ctl.
If you're now using v1.10, the new version includes one new
feature -- zone support -- that requires your attention at
upgrade time. Before v1.20 will run, you'll have to change the
Address line in Areafix.Ctl so it includes your primary zone
number.
If you operate only in one zone and do not feed echomail to nodes
in other zones, your upgrade will be complete as soon as you move
the new Areafix.Exe.
If you operate in multiple zones you'll want to adjust other lines
in areafix.ctl and areas.bbs to match your distribution needs.
You'll also need to look at your Areafix.Que file and add zone
numbers for addresses not in your own zone. The first time v1.20
runs it will add your primary zone to addresses without one.
The testers have worked long and hard to make sure v1.20 is clean.
But the real world sometimes offers surprises. It's always a good
idea to backup your control files (areas.bbs and areafix.ctl)
before you install the new software.
The program is still Greg's. But all new bugs and problems are
mine. Please don't burden Greg with problems unless I'm not
maintaining the program well.
