Short: CNet Amiga WHO Replacement Package!
Author: dotoran@bluemoon.net (david weeks)
Uploader: dotoran@bluemoon.net (david weeks)
Version: 2.68
Type: comm/cnet
Replace: aminet/comm/cnet/cnet_who.lha
Requires: AmigaOS 2/3.x, CNet Amiga, v3.05c/v4.24g
Distribution: anywhere, everywhere, please mirror!
Modified to work on 3.xx thru 3.99 and v4.24g of CNet Amiga Pro...
-- v2.68 --
- Released January 25, 1997!
- Was given reports of the files being corrupt, so cleaned and repacked
to hopefully NOT cause corruption?
-- v2.67 --
- Release Date: January 24, 1997!
- Bug Fixes:
- Ray changed GetUsers again, so this needed updating AGAIN!
-- v2.66 --
- Release Date: December 8, 1996!
- Bug Fixes:
- My apologies to the 3.05c SysOps out there! The 2.65 version had
changes made to it to handle the new format the BBSIDENTIFY BBS
command was being used, however this behavior did NOT change on
3.xx systems. This version should hopefully fix the problem you've
been having, where it only printed the local port in the different
WHO listings.
- Changes, Additions, etc:
- Being as I'm using CED now for all my coding, all these CTRL-A
smiley face codes word wrapping are beginning to bother me, so
this version converts them to CTRL-S codes instead.
- Another small change was made to the error check routines to
STRIP leading spaces from the sourceline, agin to mke readability
a bit easier.
-- v2.65 --
- Release Date: September 30, 1996!
- Bug fixes:
- CNet, v4.23 has a change made to the BBSIDENTIFY BBS command that
altered the format of the returned version string, which caused
problems in the routine used to choose the correct GETUSER values
to use.
- I noted in numerous places I was referring to the last version as
v2.46, instead of v2.64.
- Changes, Additions, etc.
- I replaced the ERROR CHECK routines with a newer version that will
disable MCI's in the "source" line display.
- Added support for the new "SuperUser" flag to all three modules,
as well as to the MAKEWHO module.
- To aid in use of the above, I also included text on how to DISABLE
the "SuperUser" flag in any user accounts on your system, as CNet
defaulted in ENABLING this flag for ALL users when it was first
introduced a few versions ago.
- Created AmigaGuide versions of the HISTORY and README file.
You will find three versions of the WHO command, each with it's own list
of features:
"Short Who" - The "W" Command:
~~~~~~~~~ ~
- Port Number (Scans ALL Loaded Ports. Will only display IDLE ports if
you have this enabled through CNet's CONFIG program!)
- User's Handle
- Where the User IS in your System!
- Conference Control Flag (+) Supported 100%. (This means that users on
other ports who try to Hide or Muffle a Conf. Controller will appear
to do so on THEIR screens, but will FAIL to do so on the Controller's
WHO screen, just like CNET!)
- Hiding "h", and Muffling "m" fully supported.
- Attempted Hiding "H", and Attempted Muffling "M" also supported!
(This is what a Conference Controller will see on their WHO screens
of user's who are trying to Hide or Muffle them!)
- Idle Ports now have the ability to show how LONG they've been Idle,
provided you have "Show Idle Ports" set in CONFIG!
- Occupied Ports that have been IDLE for LONGER than 5 minutes now tell
you this, so that you can get an idea as to whether or not the user
on the port is REALLY there or not!
- Fully colorized, with two separate HELP menus for beginning users!
"Normal Who" - The "WH" Command:
~~~~~~~~~~ ~~
- Contains everything the "Short" format does, PLUS:
- Logon Time.
- Current CPS Rate (Baud/100).
- City, State, and Country User Hails From.
- User's Short, Internal CNet WHO Banner!
- Idle Ports can now use an optional IDLE Banner, a line of up to 54
characters that could possibly tell such info as phone numbers, baud
rates, times, etc. If an Idle Banner is NOT created, the user will be
shown the regular "<No One> 0 Idle" line instead, unless a DEFAULT
Idle Banner has also been created.
"Long Who" - The "WHO" Command:
~~~~~~~~ ~~~
- Contains all "Short" and "Normal" information, PLUS:
- Last Call Date.
- Gender of User (Male or Female)[Color Coded Blue or Red]
- Time Used Online TODAY (in Minutes)
- The User's 3-Line "Glimpse" file.
- A History Flag "*" Telling which Users Have History Files, which are
text files of up to 20-Lines!
