- Rokicki of Radical Eye Software for help in getting this going.
- Syntax: dvifax texfile.dvi -o faxfile.afx
-
- 24-Mar-92
- ***** IMPORTANT ****** Config options changed *******
- Version 1.23 of faa and afaxsend now use the RSetup and WSetup
- config options, if set, for total modem setup. The config lines take
- multiple space-separated strings, each MUST be preceded by an AT.
- If you use these lines, you MUST put in the correct modem setup strings.
- See the example on the distribution.
-
- 27-Apr-92
- Added RRate to distribution Config file. Code to use it has been in
- 1.25 all along. No revision number change.
-
- 27-Apr-92
- New FifoBBS, works with VLT version 5.517. New script files to go
- with it. Probably not 100%, but much better than previous version.
-
- 3-May-92
- Bug-fix for mkafax (why has no-one reported it before ?) Changing fax
- fonts during a document would not work if the .font was left off the
- font name. New version mkafax 1.26
-
- 16-May-92
- Added vertical flip option to ViewAFax, currently off 'i' key.
- ViewAFax version 1.28.
-
- 23-Jul-92

- locking system. Modified getty from UUCP1.16 to include in
- distribution. (Note that you can still use 1.15 style locking by
- defining the variable "Lock115"
- Added environmental variable support. All Config-file variables can
- be environmental (ENV:) variables now. This will take precedence.
-
- 27-Jul-92
- Minor changes to AFaxPrt, hopefully should fix some problems being
- encountered by testers where program would appear to loop.
- Local as well as global environmental variables added (under 2.0 only)
- Version numbers bumped to 1.30
-
- 16-Aug-92
- Fixed ViewAFax to work in Productivity and other "non-standard" modes.
- Most modem commands and status codes now configurable as Config file
- or environment variables. Variables are:
- +FCON +FCSI +FTSI +FDCS +FDIS +FK +FPTS +FET +FHNG
- +FDT +FDR +FLID
- (Version 1.31)
-
- 18-Aug-92
- Null-string environment variables for +FLID, +FDIS and +FET commands
- now result in nothing being sent or expected. (No AT prefix sent)
- fxfx now added to distribution (reg. and demo, no docs yet)
-
- 30-Aug-92
- Fax decoder was clearing 1 byte too many in raster, causing mungwall
- hits. Fixed in ViewAfax (1.32) and AfaxPrt (1.31)
-
- 17-Sep-92
- New versions of afaxprt (1.32,1.33) which fix enforcer hits, also
- tidy up operation considerably. MinLines (config) now has new function.
-
- 25-Sep-92
- Some decoder fixes, viewafax will once again display all scales.
- ViewAfax 1.33
-
- 17-Oct-92 (or before)
- Support for Commodore 'Version' command added, in addition to 'uident'.
- Will appear in modules as recompiled.
- Use 'Version filename full'
-
- AFaxSend has had XON/XOFF support added, as part of experimental
- support for NetComm M7F, based on Rockwell chipset, which has a bug
- in the CTS/RTS hardware handshake code.
-
- Faa has had -p option added, bumps priority by one. On request of
- Georg Sassen. (1.32)
-
- 01-Nov-92
- MkAfax (1.34), added style option to .FONT command, also .STYLE and
- .ENDF commands added. Fonts and styles now nest.
- Also added (limited) AFAX file inclusion capability.
-
- 07-Nov-92
- fifo-handler with WaitForChar() support added to distribution. Matt
- has now added this support to his sources. Version 37.4WFC
-
- 13-Nov-92
- afaxilbm (1.34), now handles "Standard Resolution" fax to ILBM by
- doubling height. Consistent use of ILBM size, allows resulting ILBM
- to be transmitted as Standard or Fine at correct aspect.
-
- 17-Nov-92
- faa (1.34) has -Q option, allows setting baudrate when run in Getty
- mode, for use with TrapDoor
-
- 9-Dec-92
- faa (1.35) now issues an ATZ to reset the modem when terminating in
- standalone mode, following several requests. Note that this would
- happen on DTR drop anyway if modem was in recommended AT&D3 mode.
-
- afaxsend (1.35) Now has a 30 second timeout on writes, which may
- avoid some reported problems where transmit lockups occurred. Also
- possible to ^C abort during read and write requests (faa also),this
- is logged to log file.
-
- PasTeX compatability programs donated by Martin Steppler and
- Martin Horneffer added to distribution. (1.35)
-
- 27-Jan-93
- Added the "undocumented" switches -s (standard) and -f (fine) to fxfx.
- This will force the vertical resolution flag, without modifying the
- data at all. For a fax machine in Brazil that sends in Fine mode, but
- insists it is sending standard. "fxfx -f" lets the pages be printed
- normally.
-
- 9-May-93
- AfaxILBM would occasionally crash decoding corrupted fax files.
- Fixed version, 1.36
- (reported by Nils Goroll)
-
- 21-May-93
- Due to loss of 210M system HD, source to above change was lost, as
- well as sample file provided by Nils to provoke problem. Executables
- were retained. Remade fixed version, now labelled 1.36B. Please
- report any problems with it.
-
- ZyXEL released Vn6.01 ROMs which don't require byte-aligned EOLs,
- just in time so I don't have to provide this! If anyone needs it, let
- me know.
-
- 9-June-93
- Added "SyncEOL" config flag for mkafax, forces faxes to have
- byte-aligned EOL markers. May fix rare problems with ZyXEL modem
- versions before 6.00. Increases fax file size.
- Versions 1.37/1.37D.
-
- 11-Aug-93
- Vn 1.37 of faa should handle long quoted remote IDs better now.
-
- 03-Oct-93
- Minor modification to getty, may fix occasional timing problems with
- some Supras. (Timeout extended on CARRIER message)
-
- 31-Jan-94
- Finally got a few hours to look at the fax printer-driver. New
- programs afax.driver (for DEVS:Printers) and printsymb. Prelim.
- version is graphics-mode print only. Some mods made to afax to interface
- to it. While working on this, I finally tracked down an elusive bug
- that showed up in afaxprt, turned out to be the old = instead of == in
- a general request handler. The fix should show up in several of the
- modules now. General version number 1.38.
- Also added FPrint (fax print redirector) so don't need to change prefs
- for 1-off fax prints. Could hot-key via FKeys.
-
- 17-Feb-94
- Afaxsend was crashing when dialing out to LONG (40 digit) numbers,
- due to buffer-overflow. Buffer length has been doubled.
- Problem found by Krzysztof Adamski. New version 1.38.
-
- 19-Feb-94
- Several changes to printsymb and afax.driver after testing with
- Final Copy II. Also added afax.driver.debug to distribution.
-
- 06-Mar-94
- Added ClipPage config option for printsymb, which clips white-space
- from the bottom of each page when set. (Testing - may allow value to
- configure clipping top/bottom/both/none ?)
-
- 10-Mar-94
- Added Afax.library to support licence management, and allow single
- distribution for registered and demo (for ftp, etc). This will allow
- limited-use licences for evaluation, etc., and could also use to
- move fax functions into library later on.
-
- 15-Mar-94
- Converted documentation to TeXInfo format, allowing same source for
- TeX, ASCII text and AmigaGuide documentation.
-
- ============= Release 1.40 ===============
- AmigaFax1_40.lha 15-Mar-94 14:49:39 Size 389398
-
- 07-Aug-94
- New config variable, FaxPrintNotify, used by printsymb. Can be used
- to define another program to run when the fax printer driver has
- captured a fax, rather than afax. The program will be called with a
- single parameter, the name of the captured fax file.
-
- 12-Aug-94
- The fax spooler will now obey a spool file line "SendOK:" which
- gives a list of allowable times to call out, in the same format as
- used by uucico in L.sys.
-
- 15-Aug-94
- Added latest FaxGetty from uucp117, V1.17-beta.16, to distribution.
- This should operate identically to the previous version.
-
- 01-Sep-94
- Thanks to Chris Quonoey's persistence, I located a bug in the FTSI
- parser which left the leading " in place. Fixed in faa 1.41.
-
- 01-Sep-94
- Added FaxInfo utility. This was written as a quick way to get info on
- a fax file, and is only a few lines of code, but may be useful to
- others. Extension proposals welcome!
-
- 03-Sep-94
- Fixed a divide-by-zero in afaxprt, when printing a corrupt fax file.
- Reported by Michael Krauss. Fixed in AFaxPrt 1.41

- parameters, and adds more information to email notification.
-
- 14-Nov-94
- Changes to make Class-2.0 compatible, via "FCLASS 2.0" config
- variable. New faa and afaxsend, released as 1.42beta to testers.

- Getty V1.17-beta.17 Nov 14 1994
-
- 16-Nov-94

- Reported by Jonas. Change response code to allow this.

- XonXoff now sets send-buffer size, if greater than 1.
-
- 27-Jan-95
