Nodelist Updater revisions history file.
Copyright (c) 1992-95 by Roland van der Put.
Below are the changes/fixes for version 2.20, since version 2.11.
■ Implemented a new structure for the keyfiles. All registered users will
have to upgrade their old *.KEY file to a new *.KEE file. See UPGRADE.DOC
for more information.
■ Fixed some problems with the 'Scan' function in NUSETUP's Nodelist
manager.
■ NU now also support the following form for the use of environment
variables: "$[var]", where "var" is the environment variable to use.
■ Fixed several minor bugs.
■ Changed the way registration information is displayed.
■ Fixed several problems with ARC and ZOO decompression.
■ Fixed a problem with Binkley-style magic names.
■ Added support for the Xenia mailer.
■ Fixed several problems with the automatic installation.
■ Magic names are now padded to 13 characters, instead of the previous 9.
■ The merging of difference files is now about 13% faster.
■ Creating the statistic files is now 21% faster.
■ NU would not always delete the old nodelists. Fixed.
■ The $DATE macro had problems with the beginning of a new year. Fixed.
■ Binkley-style magic name files were not updated properly. Fixed.
■ NU could cause a run-error 3 when executing External programs. Fixed.
■ Rewritten the standard Borland Pascal I/O routines. Files are now opened
in read-only/deny-none mode. This allows the nodelists to be opened by
some other program, while NU updates them.
■ NU will now also replace environment variables while running the External
programs.
■ Fixed several cosmetic bugs, warnings and inconsistencies.
■ NU caused a run-error 201 while collecting the statistics from a nodelist
if that nodelist contained just one single baudrate. Fixed.
■ NU caused a run-error when the archive banner was too large. Fixed.
■ When running external programs, NU did not change to the correct
directory, only to the correct drive. Fixed.
■ NU handled RAR archives as ZOO archives. Fixed.
■ NUSETUP could hang when creating a new SETUP.NU file. Fixed.
■ NU could give a run-error 201, but deleted the compressed difference file
first, while the archive wasn't unarchived succesfully. Fixed.
