Here is the list of changes that I am planning for REC 1.20 and 2.00:
Version 1.20 - Adding of bells, whistles, and horns
- Forward requests can be scanned against a list of echos available
from the Echo Hub. If the echo desired is not found, the request
will be refused, otherwise it will be forwarded. The list can be
import from any ASCII format including an AREAS.BBS file. A extra
utility will be provided to "compile" the listing into a fast load-
ing and processing file.
- The AreaFix subject line options will be supported as well as REC's
own set of report generating commands.
- The configuration file will be processed only when it has been
changed, instead everytime REC is run. The "compiled" configuration
data will saved in a special file designed for fast loading. It
can be recompiled anytime (even if not changed) by using the command
line parm of "/C".
- The batch and message commands will be changed from static memory
storage to dynamic memory. This will make the RAM requirements less
and remove the limits on the number of commands in either the batch
file or net-mail messages. Other internal items will be made dynamic
to increase the speed and decrease load module size and the RAM
requirments.
- More than one name can be setup for REC to answer to. You can have
REC setup to answer to as many names as you want, such as "Remote
Control", "REC", "Areafix", "Hey, dummy", or whatever you desire.
The default will still be "Remote Control".
- The Create batch command will be modified to allow you to add down-
links at the same time you create the echo.
Version 2.00 - On-line version for direct editing
- The main purpose of this release will be an on-line remote and local
program that will allow you to directly edit your echo control file
while logged on to your BBS. You can excecute any of the batch
commands that you want, as well as simulating a net-mail request from
any of your echo nodes. This will be a major undertaking, so that is
why I am sending out 1.20 first.
