- ■ ProVote v1.2 Released on 07/07/94
-
- Note: This is a drop in replacement, all you really need to do is replace
- the PROVOTE.PPE file.
-
- FIXED: If FORCE VOTING=ON, in multinode environment, and one node vals/dels
- a user while another node has that user on his voting screen (but
- has not voted on him YET..), the second voter was not be able to
- quit out of voting.
- FIXED: Finally, adding deleted users to the TCAN file will work properly.
- I had opened the file using FOPEN not FAPPEND, so it just kept
- replacing the first name.
- ADDED: The message sent to new users when they are validated is now
- security level aware. If for instance a validated user gets level
- 60, PROVOTE will first search for WELCOME.60, then WELCOME.PCB.
- ADDED: Automatic conference registrations. See PROVOTE.DOC for details.
- CHNGD: Infoform's 2 and 3 in the ANSI1.ZIP file have been enhanced, they
- are now animated with a mondo-cool status bar on top. :)
-
- ■ ProVote v1.1 Released on 05/26/94
-
- CHNGD: Maximum users being voted on is now configurable via line #11 in
- PROVOTE.CNF. This line determines the maximum people allowed in NUV
- at one time AND it must be GREATER THAN the amount of entries in your
- PWRD file (how many different sec levels you have). MAKE SURE YOU
- SET THIS NUMBER HIGH ENOUGH SO THAT YOU WILL NEVER HAVE THAT MANY NEW
- USERS AT ONE TIME! I should have just kept this hardcoded <shrug>.
- CHNGD: Maximum Comment to Sysop lines now follows setting in PCBSETUP.
- FIXED: If user record does not exist in USERS file, infoforms are no longer
- saved (if user was nuked through PCBSM or some other way).
- FIXED: Didn't erase lightbar for when VALIDATED/DELETE screen pops up.
- ADDED: Light-bar security level choice when sysop is force validating.
- FIXED: Not really bug, when sysop validating, sec level would follow their
- current stats to determine if landslide. fixed cause of ^
- ADDED: Questions pertaining to stuffing votes now via light-bars.
- FIXED: @X codes now filtered out for sysop comment #2 field.
- FIXED: Now will properly add name to TCAN if sec is -2 for del users.
- FIXED: Users could quit voting via ESC if force voting on all was ON and
- users were still pending.
- ADDED: If exist WELCOME.PCB, sent to user val'd thru ProVote in a private
- message in conference 0.
- CHNGD: You can now input right up to a wall during infoforms instead of x-1
- so now you can input a single char inside of [ ].
- FIXED: When displaying comments, it now makes use of the last line.
- ADDED: Sysops can now see how every user has voted, even if they didn't
- leave a comment.
- CHNGD: Sped up the display of users being voted on; if on page 1 of users
- list, it doesn't print 75 spaces over spaces already there.
- CHNGD: EXIT.PCB format has totally changed. No more crazy methods to save
- it, just put a * where you want a YES/NO lightbar to appear.
- CHNGD: Users can now no longer vote on themselves (if they have been
- validated outside of ProVote).
- CHNGD: FEEDBACK.PCB now requires 3 "*" MCI codes. It will replace the *'s
- with the Sysops name, users nanem, and subject- in that order.
- FIXED: /S is now case-insensitive when saving feedback. Also enhanced it
- to act like Telegard/Renegade.
- CHNGD: PROVOTE.CNF format has changed drastically.
- ADDED: Infoform can now be a PPE or display file, just put a "!" or "%"
- followed by the complete path\filespec in the first line of the
- desired INFOFORM.x file. It is YOUR responsibility to get any
- forms to the DATA\ dir, see the source code to INFOHUNT.PPE for how
- to create a proper filename. (This I would think is a rather
- ADVANCED feature).
- ADDED: If exist NEWUSER.PCB, shown to newusers before anything happens.
- ADDED: If exist INSTRUCT.PCB, shown to voters before anything happens.
- CHNGD: Got rid of the Clear/Restore toggle; now it always just clears
- CHNGD: Can now use alt-F10 to prevent nukeage of applying user (just raise
- sec before all apps are finished).
- ADDED: Now saves forms for nuked users in GONE\ directory. IMPORTANT! If
- you are upgrading, you must create this directory manually!
- FIXED: Tiny inconsequential bug that caused a light bar to redraw itself
- twice under certain conditions, just slowed the display a bit.
- CHNGD: Infoforms now saved to temp filenames until feedback is SAVED, so
- now apps of people who hung up won't clutter the DATA\ dir.
- ADDED: "Review" choice when voting. This will also be the default bar that
- is highlighted immediately after viewing infoforms, to prevent lazy
- fucks from just slamming enter to blaze through all applicants.
- CHNGD: STRINGS.DAT format has changed.
- ADDED: if you define number of yes/no votes req as 0, then a user will
- never be val'd or deleted. You can do it for one or the other, or
- both.
- ADDED: /VIEW command line paremeter. If this is used, and a voter is
- entering PROVOTE but has already voted on everyone (and is NOT a
- sysop), then ProVote will report "No New Users Found".
- FIXED: If going from last page of applicants to first, it wouldn't clear
- the previous underlying data
- CHNGD: When entering provote, it will automatically hilight the first
- UNVOTED on user (instead of simply first user)
- CHNGD: INFOHUNT.PPE has been updated to reflect changes in ProVote, source
- code has also been included to illustrate the naming convention used
- for the infoforms.
