README for the full release of the Universal Message System
This package contains
- a stable, full-featured version of umsserver and ums.library
- everything needed for using UMS with AmiTCP or Envoy
- complete documentation of the UMS message-format and API
- interfaces for C, Modula-2 and AmigaOberon
- documentation and tools for converting a MB from UMS V10 to V11
- new import/export tools with documentation
- incomplete user documentation concerning UMS' configuration
- a rudimentary, experimental installer-script installing only
the umsserver, but no UMS tools, applications, importers or exporters
Esp. due to the last two points this package is still "beta" and
no "real release".
Differences from UMS 11.3:
- bugfixes
- new handling of SYSNAME and ID generation, read
UMS/Doc/english/server-strings!
Gateways might need a new gatekey.
- some new features, e.g.:
- reduced memory usage
- binary message fields/attached files (see UMS/Doc/english/files.txt)
- more powerful configuration (see UMS/Doc/english/vars.txt)
- complete ARexx functions library (see UMS/Doc/english/RexxUMS.doc)
Differences from UMS V10:
- completely new configuration, some new functions and many new
features that cannot be listed here ;)
