AmigaFax Change List
====================
16-Feb-92
AfaxDemo - First public release
(AfaxDemo.lzh 16-Feb-92 12:43:26 size 318618)
19-Feb-92
newfax,faa,afaxsend
Windows for newfax, and send/receive status, made non-activating
(Don't take focus from current focus window)
24-Feb-92
System recompiled with Aztec 5.2a (all)
Fixed afax view-file to work from requester (afax)
25-Feb-92
Added ASL File-Requester support (if available)
26-Feb-92
Added RAW input mode (DLEmode = 3) and compatability flag for
afax files. Useful for testing, but files are larger/slower.
(also faxfax convertor program - not included in release yet)
Config options and spool commands made case-independent.
(strnicmp was fixed in Aztec 5.2a)
Local ID string is not quoted. You must quote manually if using
Maestro modem.
AmigaFax1.lzh - First full OS release archive
28-Feb-92
Fixed problem of mkafax corrupting memory when run with old chips
and Vn2.0 DOS. Now checks for AmigaDos2 AND the ECS Agnus big-blit
flag before attempting big blits. (Hopefully all occurrances found)
Allow view-selection of any files from afax window
8-Mar-92
Fixed bug with ARP requester in afax under 1.3,
introduced when adding ASL requester support.
Reported by Michael Beer.
11-Mar-92
Modified afaxprt to try to cope with faxes longer than single-sheet,
for use with laser printers. Configuration option MinLines allows
user to specify minimum number of lines on a page before printing
it, to get over problem of faxes JUST larger than one sheet.
??-Mar-92
dvifax added to registered version distribution. Thanks to Tomas
Rokicki of Radical Eye Software for help in getting this going.
Syntax: dvifax texfile.dvi -o faxfile.afx
24-Mar-92
***** IMPORTANT ****** Config options changed *******
Version 1.23 of faa and afaxsend now use the RSetup and WSetup
config options, if set, for total modem setup. The config lines take
multiple space-separated strings, each MUST be preceded by an AT.
If you use these lines, you MUST put in the correct modem setup strings.
See the example on the distribution.
27-Apr-92
Added RRate to distribution Config file. Code to use it has been in
1.25 all along. No revision number change.
27-Apr-92
New FifoBBS, works with VLT version 5.517. New script files to go
with it. Probably not 100%, but much better than previous version.
3-May-92
Bug-fix for mkafax (why has no-one reported it before ?) Changing fax
fonts during a document would not work if the .font was left off the
font name. New version mkafax 1.26
16-May-92
Added vertical flip option to ViewAFax, currently off 'i' key.
ViewAFax version 1.28.
23-Jul-92
Converted to use OwnDevUnit locking, rather than Dillon UUCP1.15
locking system. Modified getty from UUCP1.16 to include in
distribution. (Note that you can still use 1.15 style locking by
defining the variable "Lock115"
Added environmental variable support. All Config-file variables can
be environmental (ENV:) variables now. This will take precedence.
27-Jul-92
Minor changes to AFaxPrt, hopefully should fix some problems being
encountered by testers where program would appear to loop.
Local as well as global environmental variables added (under 2.0 only)
Version numbers bumped to 1.30
16-Aug-92
Fixed ViewAFax to work in Productivity and other "non-standard" modes.
Most modem commands and status codes now configurable as Config file
or environment variables. Variables are:
+FCON +FCSI +FTSI +FDCS +FDIS +FK +FPTS +FET +FHNG
+FDT +FDR +FLID
(Version 1.31)
18-Aug-92
Null-string environment variables for +FLID, +FDIS and +FET commands
now result in nothing being sent or expected. (No AT prefix sent)
fxfx now added to distribution (reg. and demo, no docs yet)
30-Aug-92
Fax decoder was clearing 1 byte too many in raster, causing mungwall
hits. Fixed in ViewAfax (1.32) and AfaxPrt (1.31)
17-Sep-92
New versions of afaxprt (1.32,1.33) which fix enforcer hits, also
tidy up operation considerably. MinLines (config) now has new function.
25-Sep-92
Some decoder fixes, viewafax will once again display all scales.
ViewAfax 1.33
17-Oct-92 (or before)
Support for Commodore 'Version' command added, in addition to 'uident'.
Will appear in modules as recompiled.
Use 'Version filename full'
AFaxSend has had XON/XOFF support added, as part of experimental
support for NetComm M7F, based on Rockwell chipset, which has a bug
in the CTS/RTS hardware handshake code.
Faa has had -p option added, bumps priority by one. On request of
Georg Sassen. (1.32)
01-Nov-92
MkAfax (1.34), added style option to .FONT command, also .STYLE and
.ENDF commands added. Fonts and styles now nest.
Also added (limited) AFAX file inclusion capability.
07-Nov-92
fifo-handler with WaitForChar() support added to distribution. Matt
has now added this support to his sources. Version 37.4WFC
13-Nov-92
afaxilbm (1.34), now handles "Standard Resolution" fax to ILBM by
doubling height. Consistent use of ILBM size, allows resulting ILBM
to be transmitted as Standard or Fine at correct aspect.
17-Nov-92
faa (1.34) has -Q option, allows setting baudrate when run in Getty
mode, for use with TrapDoor
9-Dec-92
faa (1.35) now issues an ATZ to reset the modem when terminating in
standalone mode, following several requests. Note that this would
happen on DTR drop anyway if modem was in recommended AT&D3 mode.
afaxsend (1.35) Now has a 30 second timeout on writes, which may
avoid some reported problems where transmit lockups occurred. Also
possible to ^C abort during read and write requests (faa also),this
is logged to log file.
PasTeX compatability programs donated by Martin Steppler and
Martin Horneffer added to distribution. (1.35)
27-Jan-93
Added the "undocumented" switches -s (standard) and -f (fine) to fxfx.
This will force the vertical resolution flag, without modifying the
data at all. For a fax machine in Brazil that sends in Fine mode, but
insists it is sending standard. "fxfx -f" lets the pages be printed
normally.
9-May-93
AfaxILBM would occasionally crash decoding corrupted fax files.
Fixed version, 1.36
(reported by Nils Goroll)
21-May-93
Due to loss of 210M system HD, source to above change was lost, as
well as sample file provided by Nils to provoke problem. Executables
were retained. Remade fixed version, now labelled 1.36B. Please
report any problems with it.
ZyXEL released Vn6.01 ROMs which don't require byte-aligned EOLs,
just in time so I don't have to provide this! If anyone needs it, let
me know.
9-June-93
Added "SyncEOL" config flag for mkafax, forces faxes to have
byte-aligned EOL markers. May fix rare problems with ZyXEL modem
versions before 6.00. Increases fax file size.
Versions 1.37/1.37D.
11-Aug-93
Vn 1.37 of faa should handle long quoted remote IDs better now.
03-Oct-93
Minor modification to getty, may fix occasional timing problems with
some Supras. (Timeout extended on CARRIER message)
31-Jan-94
Finally got a few hours to look at the fax printer-driver. New
programs afax.driver (for DEVS:Printers) and printsymb. Prelim.
version is graphics-mode print only. Some mods made to afax to interface
to it. While working on this, I finally tracked down an elusive bug
that showed up in afaxprt, turned out to be the old = instead of == in
a general request handler. The fix should show up in several of the
modules now. General version number 1.38.
Also added FPrint (fax print redirector) so don't need to change prefs
for 1-off fax prints. Could hot-key via FKeys.
17-Feb-94
Afaxsend was crashing when dialing out to LONG (40 digit) numbers,
due to buffer-overflow. Buffer length has been doubled.
Problem found by Krzysztof Adamski. New version 1.38.
19-Feb-94
Several changes to printsymb and afax.driver after testing with
Final Copy II. Also added afax.driver.debug to distribution.
06-Mar-94
Added ClipPage config option for printsymb, which clips white-space
from the bottom of each page when set. (Testing - may allow value to
configure clipping top/bottom/both/none ?)
10-Mar-94
Added Afax.library to support licence management, and allow single
distribution for registered and demo (for ftp, etc). This will allow
limited-use licences for evaluation, etc., and could also use to
move fax functions into library later on.
15-Mar-94
Converted documentation to TeXInfo format, allowing same source for
TeX, ASCII text and AmigaGuide documentation.
============= Release 1.40 ===============
AmigaFax1_40.lha 15-Mar-94 14:49:39 Size 389398
07-Aug-94
New config variable, FaxPrintNotify, used by printsymb. Can be used
to define another program to run when the fax printer driver has
captured a fax, rather than afax. The program will be called with a
single parameter, the name of the captured fax file.
12-Aug-94
The fax spooler will now obey a spool file line "SendOK:" which
gives a list of allowable times to call out, in the same format as
used by uucico in L.sys.
15-Aug-94
Added latest FaxGetty from uucp117, V1.17-beta.16, to distribution.
This should operate identically to the previous version.
01-Sep-94
Thanks to Chris Quonoey's persistence, I located a bug in the FTSI
parser which left the leading " in place. Fixed in faa 1.41.
01-Sep-94
Added FaxInfo utility. This was written as a quick way to get info on
a fax file, and is only a few lines of code, but may be useful to
others. Extension proposals welcome!
03-Sep-94
Fixed a divide-by-zero in afaxprt, when printing a corrupt fax file.
Reported by Michael Krauss. Fixed in AFaxPrt 1.41
22-Sep-94
Some minor changes to example script file faa.scp, takes more
parameters, and adds more information to email notification.
14-Nov-94
Changes to make Class-2.0 compatible, via "FCLASS 2.0" config
variable. New faa and afaxsend, released as 1.42beta to testers.
Also new version getty, and fixed bug found in older versions.
Getty V1.17-beta.17 Nov 14 1994
16-Nov-94
USR Class-2.0 will emit "RINGING" while dialling out. (Wrong!)
Reported by Jonas. Change response code to allow this.
22-Nov-94
Debug level 3 now displays config variables as read in.
XonXoff now sets send-buffer size, if greater than 1.
27-Jan-95
Mark Daniel reported the USR Class-2.0 reports "RINGING" on callout.
This is not according to Class-2.0 specs, but added code to afaxsend
to ignore it anyway. Version 1.42b3
02-Apr-95
============= Release 1.42 ===============
