- ERRATA FOR OPUS v0.00
-
-
-
- * KNOWN PROBLEMS:
-
- - Opus gets confused when you specify more than one
- file on a message with File Attach. The message is
- stored correctly, and all files should be sent.
- The display, however, is incorrect. Opus will say
- it cannot find any of the files. The temporary
- solution is to tell Opus to store the file names
- As-Is even though it is unable to verify their
- existance.
-
- - When a matrix message is killed, Opus does not
- correctly remove the caller's debit.
-
- - There is a design flaw in 0.00 that showed up too
- late to fix. You should be aware that in matrix
- messages, if you enable the "Attach a file?" question
- for outbound messages, that question is asked for
- every matrix message. It should be restricted to
- a particular access level, but any user able to
- send messages on the network can attach a file IFF
- you enable this question. The question is enabled or
- disabled in the Opus control file. If your matrix
- message area is public, we suggest you don't enable
- the file attach question.
-
- - The message date format used by Seadog<tm> is not
- the same as the format used by Fido<tm>. Opus tries
- to maintain compatibility with existing Fido<tm> v11w
- structures. It makes no attempt to take into
- consideration programs which have deviated from
- the standard.
-
- - On the DEC RAINBOW, Opus does not know how to
- respond to function or vector keys.
-
- - On the DEC RAINBOW, be careful about drive C:.
- That is the standard hard disk for IBM computers.
- The installation batch file, the sample control
- file (OPUS.CTL), and the interactive help system
- assume you are using drive E:. I'm not personally
- familiar enough with the DEC RAINBOW to offer much
- help ... except to say that you need to be very
- attentive to this.
