- This is what's called a "maintenance" release of ANSIED. What that means
- is that I got tired of releasing AFIX files. This version fixes a few
- stupid little bugs in ANSIED v2.43. If you're using ANSIED v2.43, you
- should apply these merges instead.
-
- You recompile RBBS-PC the exact same way that you did in version 2.43.
-
- This ANSIED release is compatible with RBBS as of version 17.3/0518 as far
- as all of the additional RBBS merges.
-
- So, what's fixed?
-
- a) ANSIED could be invoked for extended file descriptions.
- b) Message subjects that were highlighted could crash ANSIED.
- c) The last AFIX fix for b) just wiped out the whole damn subject.
- d) Local cursor keys could invoke RBBS functions rather than working
- correctly as cursor keys.
- e) ANSIED line numbers were out of order, causing complaints by BLED.
- f) If a user enters a message that contains no characters at all, the
- message would be saved as 99 blank lines.
- g) ANSIED didn't use the RBBS extension for help files.
-
- h) PUIs that were supposed to be limited to a main PUI prompt also worked
- from the Q)uit command.
- i) RBBS files prompt screwed up.
- j) Files N)ew prompt doesn't list S)ince as an option.
-
- BTW, there really aren't any more upgrades planned for ANSIED, short of bug
- fixes. If you'd like something in, let me know and I'll see what I can do.
