History of Changes or Fixes to CSModem
Entries are made in reverse order, Newest first;
August 20, 1992
■ Corrected a minor display problem, and recompiled the code with a new
release of the libraries just to stay on top of it...
Have had it running on my board for a couple of weeks with out any
trouble.
August 1, 1992
■ Posted a beta version of CSMODEM completely rewritten in Turbo C++,
and using Clark Developments new DoorKit libraries.
June 22, 1992 Ver 1.17
■ With regard to the previous release, I found that I unnecessarily
padded the I/O Address with a zero, which was causing Ziplab to lock-up!
I took me a couple of weeks to discover what the problem was, but if you
also had a door that was locking up mysteriously, this was probably the
reason.
June 3, 1992 Ver 1.6
■ I found that in order to be compatible with any doors that are written
using Cam Debuck's CAMKIT or any PCBDOOR kits, I needed to have any
changes to PCBoard.Dat totally reflect changes that I was not aware of.
Both of these development kits use the IRQ and I/O Addresses of the
commports for communications, and though you never see that information
when using PCBsetup, it writes that information to the file. Made
changes internally in the program to correctly update the IRQ and I/O
Addresses when the modems are switched.
May 31, 1992 Ver 1.5
■ Added the ability to switch modems from the PCBoard command line.
Instead of entering the door and getting a menu, the user can type
option "S" along with the modem command, it will switch modems, and drop
the carrier. On my board it's like this;
MODEM S <enter>
May 28, 1992 Ver 1.4
■ Even though I checked it, an error was reported that accidentally
trashed the PCBOARD.DAT file. Fortunately, the user have a backup of it
with the .TMP extension. I did an END ELSE in the wrong place which
caused the program not to write out the entire PCBOARD.DAT file. Fixed!
May 26, 1992 Ver 1.3 ****** Configuration File Change *******
■ Made a change to allow proper operation of Hayes V-Series modems. In
your configuration file for CSMODEM you will find 2 new parameters. One
is for telling CSMODEM that you have a Hayes V series modem attached to
a com port, and the other line is to tell CSMODEM what port the Hayes V
Series is attached to. If you have a non-Hayes modem or it is not a V
Series modem, place the word NONHAYESV on line 10 in the config file. If
you do use a Hayes V Series modem, then place the word HAYESV on line
10, then on line 11 place the word HAYESPORT={commport}. Example;
HAYESPORT=COM1:
Be sure to place the colon after the commport number like the above
example.
May 3, 1992 Ver 1.2
■ Just changed the way the program closed out.. I found it was better to
call another routine for closing the door then the one I was using.
April 15, 1992
■ Added ability for the SysOp to display a message prior to logging the
user off. Add a line 9 to your configuration file or copy this one over
and alter its pathnames to your system. Line 9 is the name of the
message file that you want displayed to the user. If this is blank or
does not exist, the program will skip over it. The message file can be
almost any length, and can contain PCBoard @#xx macros or ansi escape
sequences. Once displayed the user is logged off the system as always.
