============================================
AlphaQBBS 8.05 (Gamma 8.06) Changes Document
============================================
This is a maintenance release to add a few features requested by a user
of this product. No known bugs were corrected. For that matter there is
no knowledge of any bugs.
* Discription text is no longer chopped off at 45 characters, but instead
at 48. This will allow a larger discription and still prevent description
wrap-around on both the files list and in the Files.BBS's. This expansion
is in all fuctions of AlphaQBBS.
* "-I" New Command Line Parameter!
Using a "-I" on the command line will cause AlphaQBBS, during the FILES.BBS
sorting process to align all file descriptions at column number fourteen.
This is usefull if using a program (e.g., FILEDOOR) that adds the file d/l
counts to the file description. Not having the file description starting at
column 14 may cause problems with these programs.
* "-J" New Command Line Parameter!
Using a "-J" will force AlphaQBBS, during the FILES.BBS sorting process,
to only indent headings and title lines one space, instead of two. Some
people may perfer this.
* Starting with this revision, all command line parameters must have a space
in front of them (Example: AlphQBBS -3 -F108-145.LST). Perhaps this only
makes sense, but older revisions would pick up the -1 in the file name
"108-145.LST". With rev: 8.05, -1 wouldn't be seen because it doesn't have
a space before it.
Hope these changes help. The future? These are a few addition currently in the
works:
-> Output File listing will be paged
-> Table of contents will automatically be produced for a type 1 or 2 listing.
-> SYSOP will be able to customize heading that goes on the top of each page.
-> New operating screen for main AlphaQBBS module.
-> Others as suggested.
