--- Rename of Lynx2-3-FM and release as Lynx2-4 (08-June-1995) ---
|
|
==============================================================================
|
|
06-08-95
|
|
* All of the changes from lynx2-3-FM are now located at ftp2.cc.ukans.edu.
|
|
We will call this version lynx2-4 and all new changes will be added here.
|
|
- JP
|
|
06-05-95
|
|
* Added isc support based on post to lynx-dev from Ami Fischman
|
|
(a540ami@pic.ucla.edu). - FM
|
|
06-04-95
|
|
* Initialize t1->name before the StrAllocCopy() in LYMainLoop.c for
|
|
DIRED_SUPPORT tagging. - Rick Mallett (rmallett@ccs.carleton.ca)
|
|
* Don't bother creating a /tmp copy of local files for downloading
|
|
under the DIRED_SUPPORT, and don't include "Save to disk" in the
|
|
download menu for such files. - RM
|
|
* Deal with any newlines or tabs in statusline messages, along lines
|
|
in patch from Peter Marquardt. - FM
|
|
* Various fixes to ensure terminations of strings, along lines suggested
|
|
by PM. - FM
|
|
* Made HTAlert messages more readable in trace mode.
|
|
* Replaced info.cern.ch with www.w3.org in userdefs.h and lynx.cfg. - GL
|
|
* Allow definition of the global configuration file (lynx.cfg) path and
|
|
name via a "LYNX_CFG" VMS logical or Unix environment variable. Will
|
|
override the "LYNX_CFG_FILE" definition in userdefs.h. The -cfg command
|
|
line switch will override those. SYS$LOGIN (VMS) or '~' (Unix) can be
|
|
used in the path to treat the global configuration file as a personal
|
|
configuration file ($HOME will be substituted for '~'). Meets objective
|
|
in patch posted by Danny Meyer (mayer@ljsrv2.enet.dec.com) but does
|
|
not seek lynx.cfg in the user's HOME directory without an explicit
|
|
directive to do so. Issue a screen message and then exit if the
|
|
configuration file is not readable (rather than continuing as if
|
|
one had been found and read). - FM
|
|
* Added protections from NAMEless INPUT or TEXTAREA tags. - FM
|
|
05-29-95
|
|
* Changed close(*s) typo in HTTCP.c to NETCLOSE(*s). Caused tight loops if
|
|
on error *s became stdin. - Peter_Marquardt (wwwutz@cha01.tfh-berlin.de)
|
|
05-20-95
|
|
* Mods of proxying/gatewaying code, replace obsolete info.cern.ch default
|
|
URL addresses with www.w3.org, and add option to use the new www.w3.org
|
|
wais search gateway in cover page for wais searches. - FM
|
|
05-10-95
|
|
* If a startfile specified on the command line maps to a MIME type
|
|
which invokes an alternate display device, allow -homepage, if also
|
|
specified, to be substituted for startfile on quitting from the display
|
|
device, rather than forcing an exit due to the original startfile having
|
|
been neither text/html nor text/plain. Based on a patch from GL, with
|
|
protections against possible infinite getfile() loops added. - FM
|
|
* Include -t switch when pico is the editor for reply_by_mail() in
|
|
LYMail.c. - GL
|
|
05-04-95
|
|
* Oops. Had zipped the wrong LYReadCFG.c in yesterday's mods. - FM
|
|
05-03-95
|
|
* Do not override any external proxy and no_proxy variables with those
|
|
in lynx.cfg. Bug fixes in code for setting proxy variables on Unix,
|
|
based on patches from Roman Czyborra (czyborra@cs.tu-berlin.de). - FM
|
|
* Fixes for tagging when Lynx jumps to another screen and then comes back,
|
|
and deal with possibility of screen outputs from compress/decompress
|
|
utilities. - GL
|
|
* Added support for Sequent's DYNIX/ptx operating system, and bug fixes
|
|
in HTTCP.c's BSDselect(). - Rodney Barnett (RBarnett@us.teltech.com)
|
|
* Increased limits in select() loops to 5000 tries. - FM
|
|
* Specify /nomember for compilations with DECC. It's not the default
|
|
on AXP and the code assumes byte alignment. - FM
|
|
04-19-95
|
|
* Added Alan Hirsh's script (LynxDir:VMSPrint.com) for dealing with busy
|
|
VMS print queues such that Lynx might otherwise delete the temporary
|
|
file before it has been queued for printing. - FM
|
|
* Added lots of type casting to the mathematical operations in GridText.c
|
|
to minimize possible sizing/alignment problems for DECC/AXP (and any
|
|
Unix flavors that use the Alpha chip). - FM
|
|
04-17-95
|
|
* Use test=test -z "$LYNX_VERSION" like test=test -n "$LYNX_VERSION"
|
|
in mailcap files simply as flags for non-LYNX versus LYNX environment,
|
|
without actually bothering to execute a test. - FM
|
|
* Issue "** Bad HTML!!! Use -trace to diagnose. **" statusline messages
|
|
when bad HTML is encountered, and suppress those statusline messages in
|
|
favor of the TRACE messages when -trace is used. - FM
|
|
* Fixed anchor deletion problem in yesterday's ISMAP mods. - FM
|
|
* Removed -ltermcap from AIX makes (AIX doesn't use it). - FM
|
|
04-16-95
|
|
* Send a 0,0 coordinate pair if a user clicks on an ISMAP link, so that
|
|
it's handled equivalently to clicks on an ISMAP submit button, and
|
|
(typically) will return the server's default. Note that the default
|
|
often is the parent document, and if so, the current document will
|
|
be returned via redirection (pointlessly 8-). However, this mod
|
|
allows the WebMaster to use a pure-text document as the default for
|
|
Lynx. - FM
|
|
* Protections against crashes for inappropriately positioned form tags. - FM
|
|
* Fixes in handling of configurable INEWS path. - FM
|
|
* Support for VT500 series terminals. - George Cook (cook@wvnvaxa.wvnet.edu)
|
|
04-12-95
|
|
* Makefile tweaks for bsdi and aix4. - FM
|
|
04-11-95
|
|
* Mods for building with BSD Interactive (bsdi). - FM
|
|
04-08-95
|
|
* Added translation of HTML entities and decimal escaping for the
|
|
VALUEs of INPUT and OPTION tags. - FM
|
|
* For TYPE="image" INPUT tags, use "[IMAGE]-Submit" as a pseudo-ALT
|
|
string, and submit a 0,0 coordinate pair if it's clicked, which
|
|
typically will invoke the server's default (I guess something is
|
|
better than nothing. 8-). - FM
|
|
* Handle (possibly multiple) angle brackets in bookmark and showinfo
|
|
link names. - FM
|
|
* Fixed typo in for-ultrix code in LYMain.c. - FM
|
|
04-04-95
|
|
* Added ability to set proxy environment variables via lynx.cfg. - FM
|
|
04-01-95
|
|
* Added handling of the HTML 3.0 attributes for ISINDEX tags:
|
|
ISINDEX HREF="reference" PROMPT="string"
|
|
The ACTION attribute didn't make it into HTML 2.0. For now, we'll keep
|
|
supporting it in Lynx by treating it as a synonym for HREF. - FM
|
|
03-31-95
|
|
* Mods for AIX v4.1.1 and addition of make aix4. - FM
|
|
* Added prototype and extern declarations for BSDselect(). - FM
|
|
* Fixed bugs in form_getstr() that could clobber the stack. - GL
|
|
* Fixes for symlink handling. - GL
|
|
* Made LYShowInfo.c aware of the setuid, setgid and sticky file modes,
|
|
and nicer mode display if the file doesn't have the read bit set. - GL
|
|
03-30-95
|
|
* Fixed glitch in BASE tag handling. - FM
|
|
03-29-95
|
|
* Initialize pointers in add_trusted() of LYGetFile.c before the
|
|
StrAllocCopy() calls. - FM
|
|
03-26-95
|
|
* Miscellaneous TRACE and related messaging tweaks. - FM
|
|
03-24-95
|
|
* Handle defaulted localhost in file BASE tags, and related tweaks of
|
|
defaulted localhost handling in file URLs. - FM
|
|
* Use RM_PATH for both file and directory deletions with the DIRED_SUPPORT
|
|
remove function. - GL
|
|
--- STARTING 2.3-FM ---
|
|
==============================================================================
|
|
03-23-95
|
|
* Designate this code set as lynx2-3-FM to avoid any confusion with the
|
|
official releases at UKans. - FM
|
|
* Tweaks of code for defaulted localhost in file URLs. Don't require
|
|
any host field marker in such URLs - FM
|
|
03-21-95
|
|
* Added handling of defaulted localhost in file URLs. - FM
|
|
* More protections against bad HTML. - FM
|
|
* SYSLOGing enhancements. - GL
|
|
* Suspend curses during my_spawn()'s, and fixes of code for the child
|
|
and error return detection. - GL
|
|
03-20-95
|
|
* More protections against potentially infinite loops. - FM
|
|
03-16-95
|
|
* Enhancements of 'c'omment and mailto handling. - FM
|
|
* Mods to build.com for enabling submission to BATCH. - FM
|
|
* Ultrix terminal-handling fix. - Roman Czyborra (czyborra@cs.tu-berlin.de)
|
|
03-15-95
|
|
* Fixed bug in for-Unix directory listing code to screen out inaccessible
|
|
parent directories. Was also being applied to ftp listings. - FM
|
|
* Made bolding of H1 through H7 headers a lynx.cfg option, with the
|
|
non-bolding as the compilation default. - FM
|
|
03-13-95
|
|
* Fixed bug in setting link[].lname elements to empty strings for form
|
|
INPUT_ANCHORs. Was causing showinfo() to report the links from the
|
|
previous document (yet another memory leak bites the dust 8-). - FM
|
|
* Numerous fixups of bold and underline handling. - FM
|
|
03-09-95
|
|
* Increased the while() loop limit for select() tries in HTTCP.c to 500. - FM
|
|
* Memory allocation/free fixes in HTAccess.c. - FM
|
|
* Makefile and documentation tweaks. - FM
|
|
03-07-95
|
|
* Implemented HT_BOLD when specified for headers in DefaultStyle.c. H1 is
|
|
now uppercase, bold, and centered. H2 - H7 are lower or mixed case, bold,
|
|
and progressively indented. - FM
|
|
* Miscellaneous enhancements of menu displays. - FM
|
|
* Allow tabs and '$' in lynxexec commands. - FM
|
|
* More TOUPPER/TOLOWER fixes. - FM
|
|
03-06-95
|
|
* Added ability to set the INEWS path in lynx.cfg. - FM
|
|
03-05-95
|
|
* Separated the newspost URL into newspost versus newsreply, and modified
|
|
LYNews.c to behave more rationally for new versus followup posting. - FM
|
|
* Added "mode reader" command for news list and article requests. - FM
|
|
* Enabled saving of list_dir_style settings in the user's RC file. - FM
|
|
* Don't restrict rearming SIGINT in LYClean.c for IGNORE_CTRL_C to just
|
|
SVR4. - FM
|
|
* Added numerous protections against core_dumps/ACCVIOs in HTML.c for bad
|
|
HTML. Should also help reduce likelihood of infinite while() loops and
|
|
a runaway CPU if binary files are mistyped and rendering is attempted. - FM
|
|
* Added (unsigned char) type casts in addch() calls for proper handling of
|
|
high value ISOLATIN1 characters. - FM
|
|
* Limited the while() loop for select()'s in HTTCP.c to 50 tries, to help
|
|
reduce likelihood of a runaway CPU on undetected terminal disconnects. - FM
|
|
* Fixed typo in build.com. - FM
|
|
* Added Craig's lynx_help and about_lynx files for the lynx2-3-7 distribution,
|
|
updated for lynx2-3-9 BETA. - FM
|
|
--- STARTING 2.3.9 BETA ---
|
|
==============================================================================
|
|
02-20-95
|
|
* Updated doc files and passed on to UKans for archiving on the
|
|
ftp2.cc.ukans.edu server as 2.3.8 BETA. - FM
|
|
02-17-95
|
|
* Further updates of building procedures for VMS. - FM
|
|
* Further updates of lynx.man, lynx.hlp and documentation. Indicate
|
|
that the inside_foo and outside_foo restrictions are not selective
|
|
on systems which lack utmp. - FM
|
|
* Changed yesterday's DGUX define to DGUX_OLD, because only older
|
|
Data General systems need it. - FM
|
|
02-16-95
|
|
* Added Jeff's updates of lynx.man and lynx.hlp, further updated for
|
|
v2.3.8 - FM
|
|
* Fixed typos in LYMail.c and HTTPC.c. - FM
|
|
* Cleaned up #ifdef'ing for -DIGNORE_CTRL_C. - FM
|
|
* Added -DDGUX for using inet_addr(host).s_addr instead of inet_addr(host)
|
|
in HTParseInet() of HTTCP.c (Data General may need it). - FM
|
|
* Don't report "-help" as an invalid option. - FM
|
|
02-15-95
|
|
* Handle HTML entities and decimal escaping in ALT strings. - FM
|
|
* Build fixups for TCPWARE. - FM
|
|
02-14-95
|
|
* Added transmission of Accept-Language headers. A default preferred
|
|
language is defined in userdefs.h. It can be overridden via lynx.cfg.
|
|
Users can change that via the 'o'ptions menu and save their preference
|
|
in their RC file. - FM
|
|
* Tweak of FIXED record handling on VMS. - FM
|
|
* Defined Unix ZIP_PATH and UNZIP_PATH in userdefs.h. - FM
|
|
02-12-95
|
|
* Added -localhost switch for restricting access to files and servers
|
|
on the local host. - FM
|
|
* Added -nobrowse switch for disabling directory browsing. - FM
|
|
* Added -selective switch for requiring a .www_browsable file in
|
|
each directory for browsing access to it. The enabling files
|
|
are not included in the directory listings. - FM
|
|
* Fixed up displaying of README files in directory listings on
|
|
VMS. - FM
|
|
* Replaced all tolower() and toupper() calls with the TOUPPER() and
|
|
TOLOWER() macros in HTUtils.h (should help deal with some of the
|
|
strange behavior reported for some flavors of Unix; see header of
|
|
HTUtils.h). - FM
|
|
Worked in mods from David Trueman (david@cs.dal.ca) - FM:
|
|
* Don't issue the ../ link in Unix local directory listings if the parent
|
|
directory is not readable (was already dealt with on VMS - FM).
|
|
* Include an Organization: header in Unix news postings, if possible
|
|
(was already dealt with on VMS - FM).
|
|
* Don't allow the editing of Unix mail headers because that is error
|
|
prone (no change on VMS; editable pseudo-headers are included for
|
|
informational purposes, but the real headers are those of the
|
|
account running Lynx - FM).
|
|
* Don't hardcode the Unix mv command; use MV_PATH define in userdefs.h.
|
|
* Moved the Unix COPY_COMAND define to userdefs.h as COPY_PATH.
|
|
* Completed the Unix ZIP support.
|
|
02-10-95
|
|
* Added code for converting the headers of downloaded binaries on VMS
|
|
to indicate FIXED 512 record format. See the documentation in
|
|
userdefs.h, lynx.cfg and FIXED512.COM for more information. - FM
|
|
02-08-95
|
|
* Fixed glitch in HTInit.c which mis-casted the default MIME type for
|
|
files with a .sh extension, causing the EXEC_SCRIPT function to be
|
|
dysfunctional. - FM
|
|
* I think I finally have Lynx showing "(p# of N)" properly in the title
|
|
lines (we'll see if perfection has really been achieved 8-). - FM
|
|
* Extended directory browsing on VMS to the -homepage specification,
|
|
if included on the command line, e.g., lynx -homepage=sys$login
|
|
will start up Lynx with the default startfile, but the 'm'ain menu
|
|
command will yield listings of the home directory. - FM
|
|
* Added -fileversions switch on VMS for including all versions of files
|
|
in directory browser listings (otherwise, only the highest version is
|
|
listed, with no version numbers displayed). - FM
|
|
* Modified LYEdit.c to use fopen(filename,"a") instead of access(filename,2)
|
|
to verify write access for editing files (checking "append" access appears
|
|
to be a more reliable way to do it across platforms/flavors). - FM
|
|
02-07-95
|
|
* Implemented directory browsing for VMS. - FM
|
|
* Fixed printer command handling to actually prompt for and use a second
|
|
filename argument if two "%s" strings are in the command map. - FM
|
|
* Added anti-Unix-shell-spoofing code for all of the filename argument
|
|
handling. - FM
|
|
* Fixed glitch in getenv(DISPLAY) calls on VMS.
|
|
02-04-95
|
|
* Fixed a glitch in BASE support. Should now work properly when both
|
|
standard and Lynx-specific hrefs are in the document. - FM
|
|
02-03-95
|
|
* Added support for posting to newsgroups from Lynx on VMS via the
|
|
ANU-NEWS software. - FM
|
|
* Numerous href parsing enhancements. - FM
|
|
* Enhancements and bug fixes of news displays. - FM
|
|
* Enabled display of Linknames with angle brackets (as for news URLs)
|
|
in the showinfo page. - FM
|
|
* Ensured that a file URL which is really an ftp URL will yield an
|
|
"FTP is Disabled" statusline message when it's disabled. - FM
|
|
02-01-95
|
|
* Defined out the LYK_VERSION code and made Control-V a dead key again,
|
|
since including the Lynx name and version strings in the showinfo ('=')
|
|
and 'o'ptions displays is adequate, and people on different platforms
|
|
or flavors associate Control-V with other functions. - FM
|
|
01-31-95
|
|
* Beefed up the BASE support. - FM
|
|
* Made all WWWLib cover pages and menus HTTP/1.0 compliant (to ensure
|
|
resetting of any BASE tags) and gave them more pizzaz. - FM
|
|
* Trim terminal slashes in ftp paths if not the Welcome directory, so
|
|
we'll get "Up to" links. Terminal slashes in file paths still force
|
|
that directory to be treated as the Welcome directory. For example,
|
|
ftp://host/blah/foo/ will have an "Up to blah" link listed, but
|
|
file://host/blah/foo/ will treat /blah/foo/ as "Welcome" (both ftp
|
|
and file "Up to" links are blocked by -DNO_PARENT_DIR_REFERENCE). - FM
|
|
* The VMS SOCKETSHR_TCP support can't yet handle telnet, tn3270 or
|
|
rlogin URL's (Andy Harper is working on it; be patient 8-). Modified
|
|
HTTelnet.c to compile properly and behave rationally when such URL's
|
|
aren't supported. - FM
|
|
* Corrected doc files based on Larry Virden's (lvirden@cas.org) careful
|
|
(or is it carefull) proof-reading. Thanks Larry! - FM
|
|
* More type casts for ANSI C compliance. - FM
|
|
01-30-95
|
|
* Added numerous type casts for ANSI C compliance. - FM
|
|
01-29-95
|
|
* Prototyped HTHostName() for yesterday's mods in HTAccess.c. - FM
|
|
* Updated lynx.cfg. - FM
|
|
01-28-95
|
|
* Added lynx name and version to the showinfo page and options menu. - FM
|
|
* Tweaked Danny's news proxying mods for selective no_proxy directives
|
|
with a port field (119) for news, and added equivalent code for wais
|
|
(port 210). - FM
|
|
* Updated the INSTALLATION file (I hope people read it 8-). - FM
|
|
* Hadn't included last night's typo fix in the archived fileset. - FM
|
|
01-27-95
|
|
* Added Danny Mayer's (mayer@ljo.dec.com) mods for proper handling of
|
|
no_proxy directives for news (NNTPSERVER) hosts. - FM
|
|
* Worked in Ari Luotonen's (luotonen@dxcern.cern.ch) mods for sending
|
|
a "Pragma: no-cache" header for use by a proxy server in conjunction
|
|
with the RELOAD command. - FM
|
|
* Fixed to handle file URL's appropriately in conjunction with proxying
|
|
of ftp URL's. For file URL's on the local host, direct access is
|
|
attempted, with no ftp attempt if that fails, whether or not proxying
|
|
is in effect, and whether or not no_proxy directives have been set.
|
|
Both ftp URL's, and file URL's on a remote host, are sought via ftp
|
|
without a direct access attempt. File URL's for remote hosts are
|
|
converted to ftp URL's before submission to a proxy server, so no
|
|
special procedure need be implemented to induce the proxy server to
|
|
act on them (You shouldn't continue using file URL's when you intend
|
|
ftp, but Lynx will handle such URL's properly when encountered in
|
|
old documents that use file when ftp is intended.) - FM
|
|
* Fixed typo in yesterday's "psychotherapy". - FM
|
|
01-26-95
|
|
* Escaping of ISINDEX queries needed more tweaks to work properly with
|
|
high value IsoLatin1 characters. - FM
|
|
* Applied psychotherapy to the schizophrenic behavior that was exhibited
|
|
when download, upload, print, history or showinfo commands were used
|
|
during displays of each other's menus or temporary files. - FM
|
|
* Enabled downloading of links from the history page. - FM
|
|
01-25-95
|
|
* Added LYK_VERSION command (^V) for showing version of Lynx. - FM
|
|
* Include file fixes for TCPWARE. - FM
|
|
* Fixed bug in showinfo() which caused core dumps when invoked while
|
|
positioned on any form field which has a "linkname" but a NULL
|
|
"filename". - FM
|
|
* Fixed glitch in 'p'rint menu. - FM
|
|
01-24-95
|
|
* Enabled SOCKSification for any Unix flavor via the SITE-LYDEFS,
|
|
SITE-DEFS and SOCKSLIB definitions in the top-level Makefile. Added
|
|
info in INSTALLATION on how to do it for VMS. Included notes that you
|
|
are better off building Lynx normally, and instead using a SOCKSified
|
|
proxy server to get through a firewall. - FM
|
|
* Added instructions in INSTALLATION for setting up proxy service. - FM
|
|
* Fixed multiple submit button handling to distinguish which button was
|
|
activated when they have the same name, and include only that button's
|
|
name/value pair in the submission. - FM
|
|
* Figured out how to apply all security and restrictions checks for
|
|
redirecting URLs returned by ISINDEX searches, and accordingly lifted
|
|
the bypasses for the previously insecure access types. - FM
|
|
* Added option to use Jerry Whelan's (guru@bradley.edu) BSDselect() for
|
|
SVR4 systems with the "type any key" problem. - FM
|
|
01-23-95
|
|
* Fixed up escaping of queries in HTSearch(). - FM
|
|
* Updated the sample jumps files. - FM
|
|
* Worked in socksification mods from Reese Ferry (reesef@VNET.IBM.COM) - FM
|
|
* Enabled use of LOCALE for international characters with any Unix flavor
|
|
(not just sun) via a define in the top level Makefile. - FM
|
|
01-22-95
|
|
* Updated the lynx.cfg configuration file. - FM
|
|
* Implemented BASE handling. - FM
|
|
01-21-95
|
|
* Fixed -cfg switch handling so that the specified, alternate configuration

file properly is read instead of the default system file specified in
|
|
userdefs.h. - FM
|
|
* Made 'p'rint, 'd'ownload and 'u'pload menu lists single spaced. - FM
|
|
* Fixed HTFileFormat() in HTFile.c so that it properly processes the
|
|
suffix-to-MIME-type mappings when version numbers are in local file
|
|
URLs on VMS. We therefore no longer trim off the version number if
|
|
if was included, and Lynx will now access and process that version
|
|
rather than only the highest version. - FM

|
* Fixes for FreeBSD. - FM

01-12-95
|
|
* Made the "ls -l" emulation in local directory listings a compilation
|
|
option (see the top level Makefile). - FM
|
|
* Made inclusion of "Up to" parent links in local directory listings a
|
|
compilation option (see top level Makefile). - FM

* Message fix for checkmail on Unix. - FM
|
|
* Fixes for SCO with gcc. - FM
|
|
01-11-95
|
|
* Restored original hash table function in HTAnchor.c without (hopefully 8-)
|
|
reviving anchor deletion problems. - FM
|
|
* Fixed typo in HTAccess.c. - FM
|
|
* Added code in HTFile.c from Timothy Newsham (newsham@aloha.net) for
|
|
generating long style Unix listings (ls -l). - FM
|
|
01-10-95
|
|
* Escape dashes in lynx.man. - FM
|
|
* Added NetBSD support from Bryan T. Vold (btv@wiley.HealthPartners.COM). - FM
|
|
* Made anchor searches in hash tables case-sensitive (so paths which
|
|
differ only in their case can be distinguished, as people using the
|
|
DIRED support kept requesting) without (hopefully 8-) reviving anchor
|
|
deletion problems. - FM
|
|
01-09-95
|
|
* More Makefile and code fixes for building properly with various systems
|
|
and compilers. - FM
|
|
01-06-95
|
|
* Numerous fixes for handling signals (e.g., SIGWINCH) received during
|
|
keystroke fetches, without (hopefully 8-) reviving the problem of
|
|
runaway CPU's on undetected terminal disconnects. - FM
|
|
* More Makefile and code fixes for building properly with various systems
|
|
and compilers. - FM
|
|
01-05-95
|
|
* Changed define for syslog() logging to SYSLOG_REQUESTED_URLS and picked up
|
|
logging of ISINDEX search requests that don't go through getfile(). - FM
|
|
* More fixes for redirection returned via ISINDEX searches. - FM
|
|
* Fixed missing newline character at end of last .lynxrc entry. - FM
|
|
* More Makefile tweaks. - FM
|
|
* More additions in LYCurses.h for compilers which fail to check whether TRUE
|
|
and FALSE are already defined before defining them in curses.h. - FM
|
|
01-03-95
|
|
* Fix for redirection returned via ISINDEX searches. - FM

|
--- RELEASE of 2.3.8 BETA ---
|
|
12-22-94
|
|
* The WFEB code as of 12-15-94 has been archived at UKans as lynx2-3-7,
|
|
so we'll make this lynx2-3-8 to avoid confusion. - FM
|
|
* Added bookmark_exec restriction for disallowing use of lynxexec URL's
|
|
in the user's bookmark file or converted Mosaic hotlist. - FM
|
|
* Enable any lynxexec URL in JUMPFILE if EXEC_LINKS has been defined.
|
|
This allows you to set both LOCAL_EXECUTION_LINKS_ON_BUT_NOT_REMOTE
|
|
to TRUE and a single TRUSTED_EXEC rule that will always fail (e.g.,
|
|
TRUSTED_EXEC:none), so that *ONLY* the lynxexec URL's in the jumps
|
|
file will be acted upon. - FM
|
|
* Disallow lynxexec URL's in G)oto if no_shell is set or if
|
|
LOCAL_EXECUTION_LINKS_ON_BUT_NOT_REMOTE is TRUE. - FM
|
|
12-21-94
|
|
* Include LYFLAGS in the BSDI_Makefile. - FM
|
|
* Numerous mods based on patches from David Trueman - FM:
|
|
* Changed SUN4 ifdef for implementing the "reverse clear screen hack" to
|
|
REVERSE_CLEAR_SCREEN_PROBLEM since not all sun4 systems experience this
|
|
problem.
|
|
* Changed a few messages to use key_for_func() instead of a hard-coded
|
|
key mapping.
|
|
* Allow control-C as well as control-G to abort or cancel on Unix (as
|
|
already on VMS). On VMS, control-C and control-Y evoke a "Do you really
|
|
want to quit?" prompt, and a 'n'o reply gets handled as if control-G
|
|
has been entered in the first place. On Unix, control-C is treated
|
|
simply as a synonym for control-G, and control-Y is not an interrupt
|
|
signal. This seems the best way to handle those control signals, based
|
|
on what VMSers versus Unixites would expect them to do.
|
|
* Added code to disallow the writing of files beginning with a dot if
|
|
NO_DOT_FILES is set TRUE in userdefs.h and/or lynx.cfg.
|
|
* Added possibility of logging URL access via syslog() on Unix (ifdef'd
|
|
with LOGGING).
|
|
* Improved and made more flexible the security for lynxexec URL's. The
|
|
default behaviour is the same as now, but source locations and the path
|
|
(Unix) or name (VMS) of programs to be executed can be restricted via
|
|
TRUSTED_EXEC rules in the lynx.cfg file.
|
|
* Convert ~ in lynxexec paths to $HOME on Unix.
|
|
* Several changes in DIRED support. Tidied and consolidated code. Changed
|
|
the way tags are freed (fixing a bug where they did not always get cleared
|
|
properly). Changed all programs to *_PATH defines. Changed the display
|
|
of tags so they work with numbered links.
|
|
* Added another restriction to disallow telnet port specifications in
|
|
G)oto URL's.
|
|
* A bit of special case code in jump handling. If key mapping is G, allow it
|
|
to be typed as "go target".
|
|
* Change strncmp in remap() to strcmp() (bug fix).
|
|
* Report offending bad option in main().
|
|
* In mainloop(), make \r same as \t and \n.
|
|
* Combine LYK_REMOVE code with LYK_DEL_BOOKMARK so that they can share the
|
|
same key map.
|
|
* If show_cursor is true, position cursor 1 position before the link, which
|
|
makes it less likely that the link is obscured in defective terminal
|
|
programs
|
|
12-15-94
|
|
* More fixes in LYno_attr_char_case_strstr() and LYno_attr_char_strstr() - FM
|
|
* People didn't like having to erase the default WHEREIS ('/') search string
|
|
when it wasn't what they wanted in a new document (though most didn't know
|
|
that it can be done easily via ^U), and Lynx doesn't have real editing via
|
|
LYgetstr() (just deletion from the end of the string), so I got rid of the
|
|
the editing offer. The previous search string is still buffered across
|
|
document fetches, and can be used across documents via NEXT ('n'). You
|
|
also can use WHEREIS without a search string entry to turn off highlighting
|
|
within the current document, and then NEXT to restore it. If control-G is
|
|
used instead of a blank string to cancel a WHEREIS command, it does not
|
|
turn off the highlighting. So everything everyone asked for is now
|
|
possible (once you figure out how to do it 8-). - FM
|
|
12-14-94
|
|
* Oops! Fixes in tcp.h for MULTINET with DECC/VAX had left SOCKET_ERRNO
|
|
undefined for all the other VMS TCPIP packages. That's what I get for
|
|
working on this stuff too late at night. - FM
|
|
* Additional ANSI compliance fixes in HTTCP.c for builds with DECC/VAX and
|
|
non-MULTINET VMS TCPIP packages. - FM
|
|
12-13-94
|
|
* Modified searches for strings within the currently displayed document
|
|
('/', as opposed to 's' for ISINDEX searches) so that the highlighting of
|
|
the search string is not retained when the current document is changed,
|
|
and added recall buffering of the search string so that it's offered as
|
|
the default for editing or reuse on subsequent '/' commands. Also, we
|
|
now force redraws on invocations of such searches so that hits will be
|
|
highlighted even if they occur on the current page. Links with hits such
|
|
that they have embedded highlighting of the search strings will not have
|
|
the embedded highlighting restored when the cursor is moved onto and then
|
|
off of them (helps to distinguished whether it's intended or the due to
|
|
the search), but will be restored whenever the page is redrawn. All
|
|
embedded highlighting also is restored when the 'n'ext command is used to
|
|
repeat the search in the current document, even if the returned hits do not
|
|
cause a page change. Note that these searches first search only the links,
|
|
and position you on the first link with a hit occurring after the current
|
|
link. If there were no hits in the links, then the text is searched and
|
|
the first hit occurring after the current link is positioned at the top of
|
|
the page. They never did, and still do not, search both the link and text
|
|
portions of the document simultaneously. Also note that ISINDEX searches
|
|
never have and still do not yield highlighting of the query string(s) in
|
|
the returned document.
|
|
* Fixed LYno_attr_char_case_strstr() and LYno_attr_char_strstr() in
|
|
HTStrings.c so that they properly ignore any attribute characters in
|
|
the comparison string and return a pointer to the correct location
|
|
of a match with the target string. - FM
|
|
12-12-94
|
|
* Modified FTP gateway to display 230- as well as 250- information/help
|
|
messages, and on non-Unix as well as Unix systems. - FM
|
|
--- RELEASE of 2.3.7 BETA ---
|
|
12-11-94
|
|
* Further tweaked explanatory comments in the configuration and samples
|
|
files, and updated the instruction files. - FM
|
|
12-09-94
|
|
* Modified PassesTest() in HTInit.c to avoid the overhead of system() calls
|
|
by using getenv() when test -n "$DISPLAY" and test -z "$DISPLAY"
|
|
commands are encountered in the mailcap file. Otherwise, needlessly
|
|
expensive system() calls potentially could be made for virtually every
|
|
viewer mapping in that file!. For Lynx, those two strings in the mailcap
|
|
file now are equivalent to the :XWINDOWS and :NON_XWINDOWS flags,
|
|
respectively, for VIEWER: assignments in lynx.cfg. - FM
|
|
* Also modified PassesTest() so that it simply treats test -n "LYNX_VERSION"
|
|
as success. Why spawn a system() command to see if Lynx is running, when
|
|
it obviously is!. However, that string can be included in the mailcap
|
|
file for assignments that should be restricted to Lynx if other software
|
|
also uses the file. - FM
|
|
* The above two mods make it unnecessary to actually use a "test" script for
|
|
differentially setting viewers in XWINDOWS versus NON_XWINDOWS environments,
|
|
so VMSers also can use the mailcap files for differential assignments of
|
|
viewers, without those DCL error messages about "test" which have been
|
|
mystifying so many people. However, yesterday's mods do make it possible
|
|
for VMSers to use a "test" script for checking other environment or system
|
|
features, and thereby setting viewer switches differentially, analogously
|
|
to the command line switches for Lynx itself. - FM
|
|
* Modified comments in samples/mailcap to indicate these enhancements. - FM
|
|
* Modified comments in userdefs.h to describe correctly what the Lynx code
|
|
does as of v2.3: Any SUFFIX or VIEWER mappings in lynx.cfg will be
|
|
overridden in src/HTInit.c if they also appear there. Then, any mappings
|
|
in mime.type or mailcap will override those from lynx.cfg and src/HTInit.c.
|
|
The XLOADIMAGE definition is used in src/HTIinit.c, and you can use
|
|
mailcap, but not lynx.cfg, to override it. - FM
|
|
* Modified comments in lynx.cfg and samples/lynx.cfg to indicate what Lynx
|
|
really does, and the use of mailcap files to do what lynx.cfg had claimed
|
|
it could do but doesn't. - FM
|
|
* Fully implemented multiple submit button support for both POST and GET
|
|
forms. - FM
|
|
* Added LYK_RESUBMIT keymap (with default binding to 'x' and 'X') for forcing
|
|
submissions of forms to servers (i.e., never use cache). LYK_ACTIVATE
|
|
(with default binding to right-arrow and RETURN) still fetches from cache
|
|
if available. Statusline help describes these commands when positioned
|
|
on a submit button. - FM
|
|
12-08-94
|
|
* Fixed HText_submitForm() in GridText.c to handle submitting INPUT types
|
|
(e.g., type="image") which have name/value pairs. - FM
|
|
* Modified DCLspawn to recognize -1 on failure and 0 or 1 on success as
|
|
return or exit values of scripts, and report -1 or 0 as it's own return
|
|
value. If a "test" script is used on VMS in conjunction with .mailcap
|
|
for setting viewers, it should return -1 if the test fails and 0 or 1 if
|
|
it passes (the "test" script can be DCL or an exectutable, and should be
|
|
defined as a foreign command). If you don't have a "test" script, don't
|
|
include that instruction in .mailcap. - FM
|
|
* The tmpaddress pointer in do_www_search() of GridText.c needed to be
|
|
initialized to NULL. - FM
|
|
12-07-94
|
|
* Made sufficiently ANSI compliant to build with DECC on VMS without using
|
|
the /stand=vaxc qualifier, and further modified so that Lynx will build
|
|
and run (extremely well 8-) with DECC/VAX. Whooh, that took some doing!
|
|
These mods are also desirable for builds on Unix. - FM
|
|
12-02-94
|
|
* Fixed the query recall buffer in do_www_search() of GridText.c to restore
|
|
the +'s to spaces and unescape properly. - FM
|
|
* Include file and define fix ups, for SOCKETSHR/NETLIB support and convex
|
|
builds, in tcp.h, LYShowInfo.c and top level Makefile. - FM
|
|
11-27-94
|
|
* Fixed bugs associated with failure to check the post_data element in
|
|
addition to the address element when making push/pop decisions for the
|
|
history stack, and when checking whether a requested document has been
|
|
loaded successfully. The address element is insufficient for documents
|
|
returned by POST'ed forms. - FM
|
|
* Check -trace switch earlier in LYMain.c so that trace messages associated
|
|
with setting up the Lynx configuration will actually be displayed. - GL
|
|
11-23-94
|
|
* More fix ups for the SOCKETSHR/NETLIB support. Close to "all set" but needs
|
|
more field testing with the full range of TCPIP packages for VMS. - FM
|
|
* Added HP_TERMINAL define for the DIM workaround to the REVERSE problem with
|
|
HP terminals. If not defined, SNAKE builds will not make that substitution
|
|
(would be better to do this in a way that checks the terminal at run time,
|
|
but we'll hold off on that for now). - FM
|
|
--- RELEASE of 2.3.6 BETA ---
|
|
11-21-94
|
|
* Replaced ucx$inetdef.h with socketshr_library:ioctl.h for the
|
|
SOCKETSHR_TCP builds. Note that the ioctl.h is not presently included
|
|
in the binary distribution of SOCKETSHR/NETLIB. You have to get it from
|
|
the sources distribution. - FM
|
|
11-18-94
|
|
* Added Andy Harper's (A.Harper@bay.cc.kcl.ac.uk) "first round" support for
|
|
SOCKETSHR/NETLIB (see SOCKETSHR.ANNOUNCE). Note that it is presently
|
|
including ucx$inetdef.h which is not provided with SOCKETSHR or NETLIB
|
|
source sets, and may not be available to non-UCX sites. We're checking
|
|
into how to deal with that. - FM
|
|
* Made recall buffering of shortcuts for the 'J'ump command a configuration
|
|
file option (in userdefs.h and/or lynx.cfg). - FM
|
|
* Added clearerr() before the GetChar() in LYStrings.c. - FM
|
|
* Made the optional novice help lines conform to the "standard default"
|
|
key bindings. Edit them appropriately in userdefs.h if you plan to use
|
|
other bindings with that feature.
|
|
* Added George Lindholm's (lindholm@ucs.ubc.ca) Makefile patch for making it
|
|
just a tad easier to set up local compile options. - FM
|
|
* Eliminated serial free() in LYSanctify() of LYGetFile.c. - FM
|
|
* Restricted all "hack to fix reverse clear screen problem" code to
|
|
SUN4 (had missed one 8-). - FM
|
|
11-15-94
|
|
* Eliminated separate list and atexit deletions of redirecting anchors. - FM
|
|
* Added Rick Dyson's (Dyson@IowaSP.Physics.UIowa.EDU) updates of the
|
|
descrip.mms files. - FM
|
|
11-12-94
|
|
* Worked in Malcolm MacArthur's (mcscs2mm@zippy.dct.ac.uk) mods for reading
|
|
a printer's page length from the configuration file and calculating the
|
|
correct number of pages for the statusline query on whether to continue
|
|
if the document is longer than 4 printer pages. Further modified that
|
|
code to use the current LYlines for the computation when the built in
|
|
"print to screen" option is selected. See the comments concerning
|
|
"PRINTER:" definitions in lynx.cfg for more information. - FM
|
|
* Fixed HTInetStatus() in HTTCP.c to use SOCKET_ERRNO instead of errno,
|
|
based on the platform/transport-specific definitions in tcp.h. Thanks
|
|
to Danny Mayer (mayer@ljo.dec.com) for tracking down this glitch. - FM
|
|
11-10-94
|
|
* Added David Trueman's latest clever enhancement: The command line option
|
|
-homepage=URL separates the notion of a home page (or main screen) from
|
|
the start file. So, lynx -homepage=URL1 URL2 will start up with URL2
|
|
but the MAIN_MENU key will take the user to URL1 rather than URL2. This
|
|
is useful for public accounts that start up with an information page or
|
|
form, that then leads the user to a URL for the actual home page. The
|
|
MAIN_MENU key can thereafter be used whenever the user wishes to return
|
|
to the actual home page. - FM
|
|
* Enlarged string buffer in LYEdit.c to handle large paths. - FM
|
|
* Made 'K'eymap title and descriptions easier to edit for alternate languages
|
|
(e.g., Dutch or Greek) as required by Dick Wesseling (but, alas, the editing
|
|
still has to be done in LYKeymap.c, because it's too much to move into
|
|
userdefs.h; someday Lynx will have real internationalization code 8-) - FM
|
|
* Added titles to tops of jumps files so that the nesting level will be reset
|
|
on reloads. - FM
|
|
11-09-94
|
|
* More prototyping and include file fixes in LYJump.c and LYMainLoop.c - FM
|
|
11-08-94
|
|
* Prototyping fix in LYJump.c. - FM
|
|
* Miscellaneous fixes in src/descrip.mms. - FM
|
|
* Hadn't included patch for latest LYUtils.c in lynx2-3-5.patches. - FM
|
|
11-07-94
|
|
* At popular request (already 8-), changed the "Jump to:" query to work
|
|
exactly like the "goto:" query. The previous entry is recalled, a '?'
|
|
must be entered explicitly to fetch the shortcut list (with an instruction
|
|
about that added to the prompt), and a blank entry or Control-G returns
|
|
the user to the current document. - FM
|
|
--- RELEASE of 2.3.5 BETA ---
|
|
11-05-94
|
|
* Numerous wonderful enhancements based on patches from David Trueman, and
|
|
extensions of those mods. Briefly:
|
|
* Implemented 'K'eymap command for showing all of the key bindings currently
|
|
in effect, with a description of their functions. This is faster and
|
|
more helpful than the online help's description of the default key
|
|
bindings. Must be uppercase 'K' if VI keys are ON, otherwise the command
|
|
is case-insensitive. Try it, you'll love it! - FM
|
|
* Implemented 'J'ump command for using "shortcut" names to access URL's in a
|
|
local "jumps.html" file that has a sorted DL list which maps each target
|
|
(shortcut) DT to it's full URL DD (see the sample jumps files added to
|
|
the distribution). The URL's could be local or remote resources, or
|
|
lynxexec or launch file URL's for system utilities (e.g., the shortcut
|
|
"news" could invoke the news reader, "mail" the mail utility, "swing" the
|
|
VMS File/Directory Management Utility, etc.). This feature is enabled by
|
|
defining JUMPFILE in userdefs.h or lynx.cfg, and can be disabled via at
|
|
run time via -restrictions=jump as a commandline switch. Must be uppercase
|
|
'J' if VI keys are ON, otherwise the command is case-insensitive. Try it,
|
|
you'll love this too! - FM
|
|
* Added a CHECKMAIL symbol which if set TRUE in userdefs.h or lynx.cfg will
|
|
report the existence of unread mail at Lynx startup, and arrivals of new
|
|
mail, via statusline messages. VMSers can block unsoliticed system NEWMAIL
|
|
screen broadcasts ($ SET BROADCAST/NOMAIL) when using this feature. It
|
|
can be disabled at run time via the -restrictions=mail switch, which also
|
|
disables standard mail functions in Lynx, but still allows 'J'umps via a
|
|
"mail" shortcut to a lynxexec URL for a script which could perform security
|
|
functions before permitting or rejecting access to the mail utility. The
|
|
hackers will really love this! - FM
|
|
* Added ability to toggle the novice help line to show all of the principle
|
|
commands. - FM
|
|
* Miscelleanous bugs and memory leaks found and fixed in conjunction with
|
|
adding and enhancing the above features. - FM
|
|
* The code may need some tweaking to build and run properly on some flavors
|
|
of Unix (appears to be all set for VMS). - FM
|
|
11-01-94
|
|
* Fixed bug if editor is dereferenced. - David Trueman (david@cs.dal.ca)
|
|
* Enable alternate boxing of popup windows via defines for BOXVERT and
|
|
BOXHORI in userdefs.h - Dick Wesseling (ftu@fi.ruu.nl)
|
|
* Check for LYCursesON before making any Curses calls in cleanup() - DW
|
|
10-31-94
|
|
* Looks like the last of the problems deleting anchors has been solved
|
|
by Dick Wasseling, so the bypass is lifted again. - FM
|
|
* If CANT_EDIT_UNWRITABLE_FILES is defined on Unix, write access is
|
|
required to edit files (write and delete access are always required
|
|
on VMS). - Alex Whittaker (alex@biu.icnet.uk)
|
|
* Moved "Press RETURN ..." text to userdefs.h. - AW
|
|
10-28-94
|
|
* Uncache documents or bookmark file before reloads (via Control-R or
|
|
'r'emove command) in LYMainLoop.c. - FM
|
|
* Uncache showinfo display or print, download, option, etc, menus before
|
|
reloading those in GridText.c. - Dick Wesseling (ftu@fi.ruu.nl)
|
|
* Above two fixes still don't completely solve the anchor deletion problem,
|
|
so we're still bypassing.
|
|
* Enable iso entity translations inside TITLEs - DW

* Problems when deleting anchors have been reported, apparently for
|
|
documents which have been (re)loaded with LYforce_no_cache. So,
|
|
we'll restore the bypass until that problem is tracked down. - FM
|
|
10-25-94
|
|
* Added coded for disabling mail for -anonymous via CAN_ANONYMOUS_MAIL in
|
|
userdefs.h, and via -restrictions=mail (default is enabled). - FM
|
|
10-21-94
|
|
* Added Danny Mayer's (mayer@ljo.dec.com) samples/lynx.com - FM
|
|
10-05-94
|
|
* Modified tcp.h to deal with conflicting typedefing in the MultiNet
|
|
types.h and time.h versus those for DECC. - FM
|
|
* Define FANCY_CURSES for linux-ncurses. - FM
|
|
09-30-94
|
|
* -restrictions help list in LYMain.c should indicate "option_save" (not
|
|
"options_save") for disabling the saving of options in .lynxrc. - FM
|
|

|
|
Mods based on patches from George Lindholm (lindholm@ucs.ubc.ca) - FM:
|
|
* Fixed problem when IGNORE_CTRL_C is defined, that was created by the
|
|
fix for runaway processes on Unix when undetected terminal disconnects
|
|
occurred.
|
|
* Added options to disable rlogin and/or ftp access.
|
|
09-28-94
|
|
* Use "hack to fix reverse clear screen problem" in GridText.c if SUN4 is
|
|
defined (still need clarification on the exact nature of the problem
|
|
to decide if this is the best way to handle it; it bothers me to have
|
|
this kind of hack in the code 8-) - FM
|
|
Mods based on patches from George Lindholm (lindholm@ucs.ubc.ca) - FM:
|
|
* Move the "quit" text to userdefs.h from LYMainLoop.c for easier
|
|
customization.
|
|
* Typo fix for buttons submit value in GridText.c
|
|
* Reenable SIGINT signal for SVR4 machines if control-c is to be ignored
|
|
when editing.
|
|
* Solaris fixes for LYCurses.h.
|
|
* Recognize pico as a special editor.
|
|
* Fix -restrictions help text.
|
|
* Fix -telnet and -news options so that they actually do something.
|
|
* Fix upload code so that you can have more than one uploader option,
|
|
and fix for freeing a static variable.
|
|
* Various prototype fixes.
|
|
* -editor command line option signals that the editor can't be changed.
|
|
* Added a SYSTEM_EDITOR option to lynx.cfg for a locked editor.

--- RELEASE of 2.3.4 BETA ---
|
|
09-27-94
|
|
* Alas! I think I've tracked down and fixed all the bugs that were causing
|
|
ACCVIOs/CoreDumps if anchors were deleted/freed when freeing the cached
|
|
documents. So now we do delete/free them. This plugs a major memory
|
|
leak in Lynx (which we knew about, but heretofore had to live with). - FM
|
|
* Added Danny Mayer's (mayer@ljo.dec.com) fix so that MIME types are handled
|
|
case-insensitively. - FM
|
|
* Restored text/html (WWW_HTML) as the default MIME type when an HTTP/1.0
|
|
server fails to send it in the headers. This happens because it's the
|
|
default in Mosaic and developers using that don't realize their server or
|
|
script code is failing to send it (other MIME types will be caught as an
|
|
error, and the code will be fixed by the developers). Garrett's change to
|
|
application/octet-stream (WWW_UNKNOWN) was technically correct. You can
|
|
change it back to that where indicated in HTMIME.c if you prefer that Lynx
|
|
be technically correct but functionally wrong when dealing with this
|
|
situation. - FM
|
|
--- RELEASE of 2.3.3 BETA ---
|
|
09-22-94
|
|
* Finished up redirection handling. Will now handle serial redirections
|
|
across multiple sites (with an arbitrary limit of 10, to prevent the
|
|
possibilily of an infinite loop of circular redirections), works properly
|
|
with redirections via the VALUE fields of OPTION tags, and no longer alters
|
|
any anchor addresses, avoiding all the problems that caused in the hash
|
|
table. - FM
|
|
* Worked in Rick Mallett's (rmallett@ccs.carleton.ca) fix for runaway
|
|
processes on Unix when undetected terminal disconnects occur. - FM
|
|
* Added Eric Jon Rostetter's (ERIC@uoft02.utoledo.edu) code for proper
|
|
keyboard handling with DEC eightbit terminals. - FM
|
|
* Added David Greer's (david_greer@robelle.com) mods for curses on
|
|
HP terminals. - FM
|
|
--- RELEASE of 2.3.2 BETA ---
|
|
09-17-94
|
|
* More fix ups of forms structure handling, freeing and redirecting. - FM
|
|
* Fixed problem with free's of startfile, thanks to Dick Wesseling
|
|
ftu@fi.ruu.nl - FM
|
|
09-14-94
|
|
* More memory leak and redirection fix ups (still not perfect). - FM
|
|
* Various mods to speed up memory management with VAXC on VAXen (still
|
|
slow compared to DECC on AXPen). - FM
|
|
09-13-94
|
|
* If an ISINDEX document is one returned by a previous search, the 's'
|
|
command puts up the query which returned it, for editing as a new query
|
|
(use Control-U to erase, Control-G to abort) Otherwise, no string is
|
|
offered in the prompt for a database query. If the previous query is
|
|
submitted without modification, a message to use Control-R to resubmit
|
|
the same query is display (so that the search will not be repeated
|
|
inadvertently). - FM
|
|
09-12-94
|
|
* Fixed failure to load the popped menu properly when a gopher search was
|
|
selected and a NULL string, Control-G, or arrow key is entered to cancel
|
|
the prompt for a query. - FM
|
|
* Hit lists/documents returned by ISINDEX searches are now always displayed
|
|
at their tops. They no longer inherit, inappropriately, the page and link
|
|
numbers of the previous list/document. - FM
|
|
09-11-94
|
|
* Fixed redirection handling so that the hash tables are updated and the
|
|
history stack works properly, including with forms that have VALUE
|
|
fields in OPTION tags that return Location: URL's for searches (e.g.,
|
|
the CUSI forms at Nexor). Whew, that took some doing! - FM
|
|
09-05-94
|
|
* Fixed up remaining problems with OPTION VALUE="foo" handling and the
|
|
associated popup window positioning and scrolling. - FM
|
|
* Fixed bugs and several inadequacies in the history structure and code
|
|
(still needs some redesigning to deal more effectively with all aspects
|
|
of documents returned by forms and/or redirection). - FM
|
|
* Now deals properly with anchors in a single document returned by
|
|
a form. - FM
|
|
* Command line file specs on VMS can now be any valid explicit, wildcarded,
|
|
partial, or relative VMS specification, and will be converted to a valid
|
|
file://localhost/ URL, so that partial or relative URL's within the file
|
|
also will be interpreted properly. - FM
|
|
* Now trims trailing white space and won't get tripped up by '=' characters
|
|
when reading configuration files. - FM
|
|
* Miscellaneous bug fixes and enhancements. - FM
|
|
* Tracked down and eliminated more memory leaks. - FM
|
|
--- RELEASE of 2.3.1 BETA ---
|
|
7-08-94
|
|
* Correction handling of OPTION VALUE="" implemented.
|
|
* Miscellaneous bugs corrected.
|
|
6-17-94
|
|
* Option to log memory leaks at exit by defining LY_FIND_LEAKS at compilation.
|
|
6-17-94
|
|
* Check amount of allocated memory, rather than just number of documents
|
|
cached, before deciding to remove the oldest document (implemented for
|
|
VMS with VAXC, not yet for Unix or VMS with DECC).
|
|
6-16-94
|
|
* VMS bookmark file version numbers are reset on additions of bookmarks.
|
|
6-16-94
|
|
* Gopher URL's with /hGET%20/ are converted to http URL's, as in the UMN
|
|
Unix/VMS gopher+ client.
|
|
6-16-94
|
|
* Added DIRECT_WAIS support for VMS
|
|
6-16-94
|
|
* Added build support for VMS TCPWare TCP/IP
|
|
5-28-94
|
|
* Increased nesting of HTML elements from 40 to 400. Hopefully this will limit
|
|
won't be encountered often.
|
|
5-28-94
|
|
* Modified for handling of Telnet URLs with spaces/other characters in the
|
|
username.
|
|
5-26-94
|
|
* Began terminating memory leaks with extreme predjudice.
|
|
5-24-94
|
|
* WAIS searches will now work when they are of type "www/present" as opposed
|
|
to only viewing the source.
|
|
5-23-94
|
|
* Added VMS CMU TCP/IP support, thanks to Andy Harper.
