06/28/90 - Actview for Wildcat Version 1.0 released!
09/16/90 - Actview PCB Beta
09/29/90 - Actview PCB 1.0 released!
10/03/90 - Actview PCB 1.1
* Added ALT-D - view downloads.
* Added ALT-U - view uploads.
* Added code to handle the slightly different output from PRODOOR. Searches
for new users, carrier drops, password failures, security levels and free
downloads were all expanded for PRODOOR.
* When viewing the detail of any call, important events are highlighted.
Any line that contains the characted "!" is highlighted in red. Uploads,
questionnaires and new messages are highlighted in black. Invalid logon
attempts and invalid password attempts are highlighted in blinking red.
* Headings change correctly after hitting F7/F8 while viewing new users
or errors. Before the headings got "stuck" while the display reset
to normal.
* Deleted message "FORCED FOPEN" when starting Actview. This was a message
I used for testing and forgot to delete....ooops!
* (C)omments are now counted in the message totals.
10/05/90 - Actview PCB 1.11
* F3 now finds users that are denied access due to being locked out.
* View uploads feature (ALT_U) did not work with many PCB formats. Also,
view downloads (ALT-D) showed uploads and downloads. These were
oversights on my part..sorry!
* Fixed case of names and files when viewing downloads/uploads.
* Optimized search feature slightly. Will locate any date in the CALLERxx
file faster.
11/03/90 - Version 1.2
* Added the ability for multi-node sysops to view all of the node's logs at
once without having to jump from one node to another. A *HUGE* timesaver
for me! (ALT-V)
* Added the ability to sort the calls in 7 different ways! (ALT-O)
* Memory requirements have been reduced to 150k! (multi-node may require
more...see docs)
* Actview now automatically positions the highlight bar to the next call
after viewing each call.
* By popular demand, the ESC key will back you all the way out of the
program. F10 always exits as before.
* The duration on some calls were incorrect. This has been corrected.
11/04/90 - Version 1.21
* Accidentely distributed the wrong EXE file (earlier copy) with many bugs.
Sorry! I hate these types of things. My appoligies to all who downloaded
version 1.2.
11/08/90 - Version 1.22
* If the ESC key was pressed while viewing the results of a search (ALT-S
or F9), the program would exit to DOS instead of back to the regular call
display. This is now fixed.
* With some CALLER files, the F8 key would lock up the system. This is
fixed.
* If a user logged on and their user name got garbled it would cause Actview
to lock up when trying to retrieve the name. This is now corrected.
* F7 (goto previous day) is now faster.
08/20/91 - Version 2.0
* User Defined call flags have been added to give sysops the ability to
have Actview indicate calls that contain certain strings (see
ACTVIEW.DOC and ACTVIEW.FLG).
* Mouse support has been added. Just click on a user and the detail will be
displayed.
* Parameter added to turn mouse support off (NOMOUSE). If the mouse is not
used, it speeds up the entry and exit to Actview if the mouse does not
have to be initialized and reset.
* All windows and menus are completely re-written (switched to a newer
version of the windows libraries (CXL -> TCXL).
* Fixed blank security level problem on new callers.
* Prior to 2.3, if the F3 (view errors) was pressed and no errors were
found, the program locked up.
* In prior versions, if a date was searched for that was before the
beginning of the log, the program locked up.
* User Defined call flags have been added to give sysops the ability to have
Actview indicate calls that contain certain strings (see ACTVIEW.DOC and
ACTVIEW.FLG).
08/25/91 - Version 2.01
* Fixed sort problem (would not sort chronologically).
* Added a new sort order on the ALT-O menu; "Reverse"
* When going from multi-node view (ALT-V) back to single node view with the
ESC key, a confirm message is displayed.
* Node number and flags were added to the new user display (F5)
* When viewing the detail of a call, all lines that raised a user defined
flag are highlighted.
10/19/91 - Version 2.1
* All functions of Actview now work while viewing all nodes at once (ALT-V)!
This includes string search (ALT-S), user search (F9), downloads (ALT-D),
and uploads (ALT-U).
* After a search is complete, Actview now goes back to the date that was
positioned to before the search started.
* If an invalid file is specified in ACTVIEW.CFG, an error message is
displayed.
* Blank lines in ACTVIEW.CFG are now ignored.
* When returning to single node view from multinode view, the node that was
viewed previously is re-displayed.
* In 2.0x, if the user attempted to scroll back a date when viewing the
second days calls, Actview would locked. This is now fixed.
* If the parameter VIRTUAL is used with the parameter NEW or ERROR, the
latter was ignored. This is now fixed.
* When viewing uploads or downloads, sorting by file name only sorted by the
first 4 characters. Now sorts entire name.
* When sorting calls by the first name of the caller, the sort was in
reverse order. Sort is now in ascending order.
* Several modules of code have been rewritten to improve speed and
reliability.
* When viewing multi-node, F8 did not go to the next date correctly.
10/28/91 - Version 2.11
* Changed the way that caller logs are opened to better support file
sharing. In release 2.1, the caller files were not opened in shared mode
when viewing all nodes. This is fixed.
* If using the ACTVIEW.CFG file, Actview would sometimes lock up during
searches (ALT-S and F9) especially when using QEMM. This is fixed.
* If a line in the caller log was greater than 80 characters, it would
sometimes hang Actview. This was only possible with version 2.xx of
Wildcat.
* ALT-L and NOLOCAL are fixed.
11/18/91 - Version 2.2
* Columns shifted slightly to allow for 4 digit message values (again this
occured mostly in Netmail hubs).
* Flags were not active on the first line of every call. This caused the
flag: "NEW USER" not to work. Flags are now scanned for every line of the
call.
* When pressing F6, the last date in the activity log in node 1 is
displayed as a default.
* If an out of range date is entered in the F6 window, the error message
would display in the wrong window.
* Mouse support enhanced slightly. The right mouse button = ESC. The left
mouse button = ENTER. More is planned..
* Added "LARGE" parameter. This option should not be needed for most PCB
BBS's. If some of the calls in your CALLER files are very large (usually
NETMAIL hubs) and if you have problems with Actview getting hung, try
this parameter. It is not the size of the CALLERxx files, it is the size
of an individual call that can create a need for this paramter.
11/25/91 - Version 2.21
* Fixed a serious bug that caused Actview to lock after viewing the detail
of between 15 and 20 calls. The stack was not cleared after each causing
it to overflow after several calls. This is now fixed. QEMM users were
seeing errors even sooner than 15-20 calls.
01/03/92 - Version 2.22
* Sometimes when Actview was executed, it would report "Input date not
found". This has been fixed.
* All 0's have been changed to '-' on the call menu.
* If the parameter VIRT was used with "NEW" or "ERR", Actview would not
perform correctly.
* Improved F3 (view errors). Now shows the actual line from the activity
log(s).
* Slight speed improvements in searching.
03/02/92 - Version 2.23
* Added paramters "25", "43" and "50" to run Actview in EGA-43 line or
VGA-50 line mode. If you are already in 43/50 line mode when you run
Actview, no parameters are necessary.
* Corrected bug in search routine that would occasionnaly lock up Actview
when positioning to a particular date.
* Actview would not go backwards past the current date (F7 key) if the
following conditions existed:
The first call of the current date was a LOCAL call.
The local calls were being screened (NOLOCAL param or ALT-L)
This is now fixed.
