- Hi zyzop,
-
- Here it is a new version of EASTtag.
- It costs a little more time then a was thinking of but that is becouse
- the Ra 2.00 came not in a few weeks but in a few months. ;((
-
- I wanna to wait with this release becouse you never know what Andrew maybe
- want to change after the buggie release of the 2.00g1 version.
-
- Now I had some time to make EASTtag so good as posible and this is almost
- te latest version of it. Only when there are to many bugs in the version
- i will make another.
-
- Okay lets begin the whatsnew report....
-
-
- [-----------------------------------------------------------------------]
- EASTtag now auto detects and runs under Remote Access 1.1x and 2.00 and
- Proboard 1.30/1.31. This is one of the most big changes of this version
-
-
- TAGsetup
-
- TAGSETUP > PATHS > SWAPPATH
-
- This is a the Path where EASTtag can swap to or can create its temporary
- files. This is also the path where EASTtag extract files from an archive
- to view with the internal viewer.
-
- TAGSETUP > PATHS > CDROMPATH > CDROM AREAS (RA 1.1x Only)
-
- If you're running a Ra 1.1x board you can't enter your CDrom Areas
- in Raconfig so EASTtag needs to now what your Cdrom area are.
- EASTtag skips this areas with a newfile scan and also looks for a
- file called FILES.(num) in the CdRomPath (Where num is the current area).
-
- TAGSETUP > TRUNC.DESCRIPTION {+}
-
- This option is specialy for people who use FILE_ID.DIZ in there FILES.BBS.
- Normaly EASTtag wraps the description if it is too long for one sentence
- to the ext line, but with this option set EASTtag truncates the line until
- the end of the screen.
-
- TAGSETUP > COLORS > COLOR.EXAMPLE {+}
-
- This is now only for registered users ;-)))
-
- TAGSETUP > LANGUAGE
-
- There are 5 new lines in the language file..
- Check this first before putting EASTtag on the board.
-
-
- EASTtag
-
- New Command line options :
-
- /U: Upload Search file list. Now the user can upload a list with
- filenames to search for.. EASTtag first displays a ANS/ASC file
- called HELP_UP.A??.
-
- /O: With this parameter you can directly choose an area to view
- for example /O5 directly views area 5.
-
- /C: With this parameter EASTtag asks the user to search only in the
- current file group or on all areas. (RA 2.00)
- This option only works on Filenaam/Keyword/Newfile scan.
-
-
- ET_HEAD.ANS :
-
- If you want to first display a header in your arealister before view/tag the
- filenames you can make a ansi file called ET_HEAD.ANS and place it into the
- file directory. EASTtag displays this ansi file before viewing the area.
- (See example ET_HEAD.ANS file)
-
- VIEWDOOR :
-
- Now EASTtag has its own Internal viewdoor. So you don't need ET_VIEW.EXE
- anymore. It doesn't work anymore because i changed the config files a bit.
- You can use MTS or any other external viewdoors but the internal viewer
- is also very cool.
-
- OTHER :
-
- Made some more stats on the bottomline. ALT [1..8]
-
- If a user has EMSI on and has NEWFILES requested EASTtag doesn't ask
- him/her to search for newfiles. It simply does it.. ;-))
-
- EASTtag now recognize furterdate files and show's them in the newfile
- search.. This is very handy if you want to show some files for a long
- time.
-
- Made a special key '3' to skip current area when searching for keyword/
- filemname or newfiles. I made this aspecialy if you want to skip the
- area becouse the are so many files you want see. ;-))
-
-
- BUG FIXED
-
- After Killing the Tagfile you couldn't tag anymore on the current screen
- This was one off the nasty bugs in 2.23.
-
- The wrap description procedure wasn't what it was used to be.
- Most of the time EASTtag wrapted too quick and the files.bbs look terrible
- Now it wrap from point 79 on the screen if trunc description is NOT set.
-
- If EMSI users had FILE requested EASTtag also ask "Look for new files"
- Now EASTtag doesn't ask for it and starts new file seaarch.
-
- Changed the jump procedure a bit sometimes it messed up a bit.
-
- EASTtag wraped to sone lines of the description..
-
- If you chatted when EASTtag was searching the screen fucked up when
- leaving the chatter...
-
- In the internal chatter you now have a normal (Ra look alike) statusbalk.
-
- You now can press the 'S' key when searching for a file and easttag
- comes with the option balk. You don't have to wait until the whole screen
- is filled with files.
-
- When you used an external viewdoor EASTtag didn't read the BBSTAGFL.?
- Now it does. and also writes one before executing the external door.
-
- Changed some in the Users time left procedure EASTtag didn't swowed the
- user if he/she had only a few minutes left. Now it's the same as RA does.
-
- The Tag/View filename sometimes apeared under the filename in the list.
- This is fixed now. But if a user hasned give his/her good screenlength
- it can be wrong again. So if a user complains about it ask his/her
- screenlength before writing the auther about this.
-
- Some things gone very bad when you only had a '+' on a longdescription
- line.. This was in the same procedure as the wrapprocedure. So it's
- fixed to.
-
- [------------------------------------------------------------------------]
-
- I think there aren't amny bugs in this version but you never now.
- If you see some bugs report it to me or any other member of the team.
-
- Good luck with EASTtag and all other EASTsoft programs.
