- Version 1.00 beta 18-Apr-1992
-
- + Initial release.
-
- Version 1.10 beta 28-May-1992
-
- + Added FILES.BBS support for file announcements.
-
- The following keywords were added to the
- configuration file:
-
- FILESBBS_FileName [full FILES.BBS specification]
- FILESBBS_Files [path name of data files]
- FILESBBS_AnnounceName [tag name of area]
-
- If FILESBBS_FileName is defined, then this file
- will also be searched for new incoming files to
- announce, in addition to any .TIC files in the
- inbound directory. The format of the FILESBBS
- file is:
-
- FileName FileDescription
-
- FILESBBS_Files is the directory in which the
- actual files reside.
-
- FILESBBS_AnnounceName is the name to use in the
- Announcement Definition below when referring to
- new files found in the Files.BBS.
-
- If this option is used, ALL FILESBBS_xxxxx
- statements must be defined, and in the order of
- FileName first, Files, and then AnnounceName.
-
- Up to 40 Files.BBS files may be defined.
-
- + Added duplicate checking ability via an announce
- file. The following keyword was added to the
- configuration file:
-
- AnnounceList [full file specification]
-
- This file contains a list of all the files that
- have been announced, one file name per line.
-
- It is a good idea to define this if using FILESBBS
- statement. It will be checked to prevent
- duplicate announcements if you haven't had a
- chance to move the files from your "newup" areas
- since the last run of FAN.
-
- It can be deleted periodically if it grows too
- large.
-
- Version 1.20 beta 19-Sep-1992
-
- + Added 'Months' keyword
-
- In order to support multiple languages, each month
- name can be customized. See Fan.Cfg for more
- details.
-
- + Fixed case sensativity for Area and Announce
- names. These names can be any case.
-
- + Can now define different network addresses on an
- area-per-area basis. However, the origin of the
- *file* for FILES.BBS files will be the primary
- address. For TIC files, it will remain whatever
- the 'origin' keyword is in the .TIC file.
-
- + Corrected bug with log levels and log message
- output to the screen.
-
- + Enhanced the description formatting for messages.
- Can now specify an optional left and right margin
- for the %x token as follows:
-
- %[left_margin:right_margin]x
-
- See Fan.Cfg for more details.
