0.23e Additional fix to closing of sockets!
Amended the server request
got rid of ticker$update because I hate it and it slows things
added optional pausing on mouseover (by request)
changed polling loop, hopefully more efficient!
Help file improved
0.23d Added pollidle for when in iconised mode
Hopefully made a more successful closing of sockets
Fixed resolver window appearing each time (only first time now)
Large drag resize bug fixed
0.23c Sprite problem fixed
Incorrect URL launch problem fixed
0.23b Removed 'pausing' on mouseover. (by request)
Added resize of ticker by using 'adjust' on the main window
(Position and width are saved when 'Save & Apply' is clicked on
in the config window)
0.23 Added support for the headline.dat file from the BBC
(note this is very beta so may not work)
Removed the 'resolving' message from appearing on all but the first
connection (by request)
Made the option for the 'iconized' mode able to still update
if required, and open itself up on update. (by request)
Added support for externally triggered updates by setting
ticker$update to non-zero (by request)
Added 'pausing' when mouseover window, to fit in with
behaviour of the Win95 version
0.22b Added link colour configuration through the choices file
(see help for details)
Made automatic update optional
0.22 Stopped more than one ticker being able to be run at a time
Added support for low graphics fetches of BBC news pages
(Thanks loads to Chris Rogers for pointing this one out,
and giving me the code!)
Made beep on connect optional
0.21 Added support for ANT multitasking name resolution (and Acorn too?)
Seeing as I don't actually have ANT suite then this
probably won't work
Added toggle of width (adjust click on black 'ticker' icon)
Added Saving of window position for those who don't use auto mode
0.20 Fixed all the bugs that stopped it running on my A4
So, supposedly supports RiscOS 3.1
fixed ioctl bug
Link to home page :)
0.19 Allegedly supports RiscOS 3.1. maybe
0.18c Added 'just above iconbar option' see help for details
0.18b Bug fixes for processing key strokes
and for proxy support
(thanks Peter!)
0.18 Headline bug fixed
Item no longer changes colour if no URL is available
other bugs
0.17c reorganising of code for various parts
colour bugfixes
scroll code faster (marginal)
0.17b Added colours to stories
0.17 autosizing fixed
http fetch quickened (at least on my machine!)
proxy implemented. not tested.
Something else I've forgotten
0.16 Beep on connect
Less intensive connect. Previous connect could cause problems if
resolving was slow. Resolving code needs to be changed tho.
Scrolling smoothed
Added choice of auto sizing window (does it work?)
0.15 version 0.14 failed to connect. 0.15 attempts yet again to fix
tested with my modem, ArmTCP, !Internet and Arcweb. Worked
well!!! success!
0.14 fixed : build up of textured window remains when scrolling
failed unless immediate connect (hopefully fixed!)
I must connect my RiscPC to the internet so I can test it!
0.12 released for a test. didn't work
