- Things to do or think about doing for xarchie:
-
- - Use tick marks on the menus to indicate the current item. This is tricky
- because of the several places that the values can be set, and by the
- complete flexibility of the menus, their item labels, and the order of
- the items.
-
- - List a host completely, using the browser to walk the directory tree.
- This shouldn't be hard, since Archie and Prospero already support it.
-
- - Use the Prospero tools to implement a decent ftp procedure.
-
- - Allow the sort mode to be changed without requerying. This requires that
- we hold onto the Prospero vlinks in the database. We will want to do this
- anyway to support listing hosts and directories.
-
- - Make the "Nice Level" button a different color or shade when the value
- is >0.
-
- - Make the "Default" button on the Settings panel use the values that
- we had at startup (ie. in main() copy the appResources into variables
- for the button's use).
-
- - Try to improve the status calls so that the message "grows" as more
- things are received (look for "recvd_thru = htons(...)" in get_vdir.c).
-
- - Add a host to the hostMenu if one is entered from the Text item that
- isn't there already.
