FrontDoor 2.26.mL // FDFIXES.226 // 13-Jan-99
Copyright 1998 Definite Solutions HB; All rights reserved.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This document describes most of the major new features and functions,
as well as some minor corrections and additions, in FrontDoor 2.26.SW
since version 2.25.SW (released on 16-Jun-98).
For other fixes and corrections, please refer to files with the .225
extensions.
Various notes
=============
(*) There is now a native (32-bit) OS/2 version available of FrontDoor
2.26.SW!
(*) Our postal address and telephone numbers have changed.
FD (Mailer)
===========
(*) FD now supports the use of $[]-style macros in the DIAL .. END
section of FDNODE.CTL. This will allow calling prefixes, etc. to
be set dynamically (changed at specific times of the day for
example).
(*) Improved handling of STQ (STatic Queue) SPOOL entries.
(*) Corrected handling of HUB-ROUTE and HOST-ROUTE commands in regards
to the points of a hub.
(*) FD will now create the semaphore FDTIMSNC.0 in the semaphore
directory as soon as it has synchronized its time from a remote
time source. This semaphore can then be used in batch files and
by other programs to update network servers, etc.
(REGISTERED USERS)
(*) The nodelist browser has been modified to show "??" for stray node
and point entries when browsing the Zone and Net levels.
(*) The way FD "bumps" ARCmail filenames when receiving a duplicate
filename has been modified so that the .MO9 extension is bumped to
.MOA and .MOZ is bumped to .MO0.
(*) Fixed FD to properly handle the "CONNECTING", "ALERTING", and
"CALL SENT" modem responses during inbound calls.
FM (Editor)
===========
(*) FM should no longer allow a JAM-type folder to be selected (in any
given situation) if FDOPT contains NOJAM or /NOJAM is specified
on the command-line.
(*) The problem with macro definitions that expand to more than 150
characters being truncated has been fixed.
(*) FM's JAM handling code has been made somewhat more bullet-proof
against corrupt JAM message bases.
(*) The nodelist browser has been modified to show "??" for stray node
and point entries when browsing the Zone and Net levels.
(*) FM's parsing code for .CCL files has been made more tolerant to
leading and trailing whitespace; this should allow for the
contents of .CCL files to be evenly formatted/aligned.
FDNC (Nodelist compiler/manager)
================================
(*) FDNC now supports the use of $[]-style macros in the DIAL .. END
section of FDNODE.CTL. This will allow calling prefixes, etc. to
be set dynamically (changed at specific times of the day for
example).
(*) The nodelist browser has been modified to show "??" for stray node
and point entries when browsing the Zone and Net levels.
FDSETUP (Configuration/Setup)
=============================
(*) The handling of the "Modem.Command strings" settings has been
modified so that it is possible to specify leading and trailing
spaces for all strings that are not terminated by a vertical bar
(|) character. This should allow for software that requires a
space in dial prefixes, etc. to allow "Vmodem" (Internet)
connections.
And needless to say, several other minor corrections.
