*** This is just an update release to update official 1.17 to 1.17-2.
Please download SBBS1172.??? for complete SuperBBS 1.17-2 package ***
Welcome SuperBBS 1.17-2. We decided to release this bugfix release due
to a pretty major bug in 1.17 (which won't be explained more detailed due
to some security reasons).
There are probably a few SysOps who have sent their regs. directly to SBBS
HQ, but haven't received their codes yet. If that's your situation, please
contact us immediately.
Here comes a list of new features compared to 1.17
- Added new *M? metacharacter to menutype 7
A new *M? metachracter command has been added to menutype 7. *M? is used
to change the "what did" status for menutype 58. Valid parameters are :
*MP = Paged SysOp
*MQ = Used QWK system
*MD = Downloaded
*MU = Uploaded
- Added a new .CTL to override paging hours
Users listed in new NOPHOURS.CTL are allowed to use the page SysOp option
any time.
- Added new command line parameter for BBS.EXE
-S? command line parameter can now be used to select some statusline
automaticly. Ie. BBS -L -N3 -S9 would start SBBS locally, using node #3
and the statusline would be disabled.
- SBBS now informs user if someone posts a new message to him/her from
another node while he/she is logged on.
- SBBS now displays CPS rate etc. information after file transfer.
- The full screen chat now shows current time and minutes chatted.
- Added a new auto display file GUEST.A?? which is shown whenever a
guest user logs in.
- It's now possible to use full path + name for bulletins in menutype 6
data field. If the path is specified the text files will be loaded from
that path instead of the normal text files path.
- It's now possible to use any control codes in origin lines.
- The statusline is now updated when using ALT-5 and ALT-6 SysOp commands.
- Added some strings to LCONFIG, please edit your *.LNG files.
