GoldED TODO and BUG list. Not complete.
______________________________________________________________________
v---- x = fixed or done. w = working on it. ? = works here.
v-- ? = bug not found/tested. - = bug found/tested. + = new/changed.
* PROJECTS:
- addressbook.
- uudecode marked msgs.
- enhanced search features: "and" search, regex search.
- access nntp, smtp, pop3 servers for news/mail via tcp/ip.
- arealist class with integrated group features. (internal)
- messagebase objects separate from area config. (internal)
w - special line text allocation. (internal)
* KNOWN BUGS / PROBLEMS: (not a complete list)
- pcb: in echomail areas, the "uns" flag is unreliable (cosmetic).
- pcb: msg should be "uns" if all ~fido~ users have lower lastreads.
- inputfile in group doesn't work.
- gedw32: with caps lock on, even numeric keys are shifted!
- gedw32: one area is scanned even if esc is pressed during startup.
- gedw32: doesn't obey the screensize keyword.
- gedw32: is silent when running under windows 95.
w - in msglist mode, the '²' always shows in the logo in stat.line.
- ransys language isn't always switched properly.
- with dispsoftcr, softcr at beg.new line is stripped anyway?
- after a shell, ctrl-s shows nothing and the clock stops.
- import of very large files sometimes goes bad in 386 version.
- qwk features have problems in *.msg areas?
w - something in the code seems to be making pointer under+overruns?
- tearline --- UNREG UNREG. related to empty tearline?
- template filename seems to sometimes be used as origin in groups?
- the fd/im nodelist index lookup/browse is not 100% reliable.
- unexpected deleted squish msgs causes unusual behaviour.
- with areareplydirect, the "@moved" token should not be active.
- when frqing from a netmail, don't ask about deleting original.
- ie import: stops at eof mark. shouldn't.
- soup import: crashes with long lines (like 100k to-line). (>16k)
- cosmetic: del at pos 2 above a quote. quote disappears.
- cosmetic: enter right after the '>'. quote is not reproduced.
