- Voyager-NG Prerelease Demo #2
- =============================
-
- Welcome to the second Voyager-NG V2.0 pre-release Demo.
-
- * Please note: This version doesn't claim to even remotely
- * fix all the bugs that have been reported about the first
- * release of V-NG. It's a snapshot of work in progress
- * which fixes a few of the most serious bugs. So don't worry
- * that your bug report or suggestion got lost; new releases
- * coming soon.
-
- This is a preliminary release which brings this fantastic
- new Web browser to the Amiga community and allows
- Voyager-NG to benefit from the largest testing base
- possible. Some non-critical problems are known and in the
- process of being fixed, though you may discover others
- yourself. If you hit any bugs, don't scream and have a
- heart attack, please help us out and write a bug report to
- <voyager-bugs@vapor.com>.
-
- Please state the exact Voyager version, your OS version,
- machine configuration, whether you use a graphics board
- and which graphic support library and, esspecially with
- image related bugs, what kind of screen V runs on. A
- enforcer/mungwall/poolwatch log which be extremely helpful
- if your system permits running these useful tools.
-
- Due to the beta nature, Voyager is currently updated
- frequently. Check out the V-NG web page at the following
- URL;
-
- http://www.vapor.com/voyager/
-
- Updates will appear here regularly. Updates are also
- announced on the Voyager mailing list. If you are not on
- it yet, you are encouraged to subscribe. Mail to
- <voyager-request@vapor.com> and put "ADD" in the body of
- the mail. Put "HELP" there to obtain a complete
- description on how to use the mail server. The mailing
- list is also a good place to discuss enhancement
- suggestions.
-
- Major changes to Voyager since Version 1.0:
-
- ╖áSupports Frames as introduced by Netscape 2.x
-
- ╖ Uses internal image decoding routines. Visually incremental
- on-the-fly image decoding, leaving the program operational
- during decode. No more hassle with datatypes related bugs.
- Optimized memory usage. The routines are optimized for speed
- and are very fast. Full support of CyberGFX HiColor/TrueColor
- screens.
-
- ╖ Supports HTML tables. Many more HTML commands
- and Netscapism's are understood (including FONT SIZE and
- HR WIDTH). Improved general compatibility with broken
- and nonstandard HTML code.
-
- ╖ Supports versatile plugin interface for vanilla
- extensions
-
- ╖ Shipped with a web search engine plugin
-
- ╖áSupports T/TCP "TCP for Transactions" requests,
- allowing for much faster establishment of HTTP links
- to servers. This is currently supported by
- Miami 2.x only. Specified in RFC 1644. As far as
- we know, Voyager is the first browser on any
- platform supporting this!
-
- ╖áTotally reworked preference setting. The transfer anim is
- now configurable, too.
-
- ╖ Supports Shift & Click downloading of files even from
- servers with broken configuration which state
- that binary data is of type "text/plain" (which
- happens frequently with .lha and .lzx files,
- because these suffixes are missing in many
- http server example mime.types files)
-
- ╖áPopup menus for links offering link specific options.
-
- ╖áAdded internal SMTP send capability. Also
- supports mailto: forms now. Improved news
- handling.
-
- ╖ Many minor enhancements, and of course
- All The Popular Bugs were fixed, too.
-
- A full list of changes is included below.
-
- Installation Notes
- ------------------
-
- Please use the included Installer script to
- install Voyager on your system. If
- you have any problems with the Installer,
- please mail them to <vgr@best.com>.
- Don't forget to include a Installer log.
-
- The format of the configuration and cache
- files is compatible to V1.0, but due to
- configuration changes, many of the new
- settings will appear as defaults,
- and a few old ones may get lost, because
- they are replced with more fine tuned
- versions.
-
- Known deficiencies
- ------------------
-
- As stated above, this is a beta version
- which is not supposed to reflect the
- final release. Known deficiencies
- which are to be fixed within the
- next few release, include:
-
- ╖ Image decode only works for GIF and JPEG
- images in the moment. No internal support
- for PNG, nor fallback to datatypes
-
- ╖áOn AGA systems with interleaved bitmapped
- screens, transparent GIFs tend to flicker
- heavily
-
- ╖áSome of the GIF anim disposal methods
- aren't supported yet
-
- ╖áHeavyily nested frames sometimes cause
- a messed layout
-
- ╖áUnder certain circumstances, frame targets
- don't work as expected
-
- ╖áFrames are not yet resizable
-
- ╖ Some of the preference items are not
- functional yet
-
- ╖ ftp://user:password@host schemes don't work
- yet
-
- ╖áPrinting doesn't work when V is running
- on a Truecolor/Hicolor screen. This is
- actually a printer.device limitation.
-

- which may increase overall speed under some
- circumstances.
-
- V1.51beta
- ---------
- - fixed URL target handling for frames
- - fixed a rather serious bug in the http stream
- module. Upon downloading data without

- to nuke really hard.
-
- V1.43beta
- ---------
- - on file:/// URLs, the internal progress
- counter for bytes read was set before
- the data was actually read, thus causing

- - GIF anims where some frames
- don't have a local color map were
- displayed hosed
-
- V1.27alpha

- incremental (caused by a wrongly set flag
- telling the net loader to only report data
- when the whole download was finished)
- - net loading of images was totally hosed
- (due to text/html being filled in)

- screens.
- - fixed a longstanding background rendering
- bug which involved a wrong X offset
- into the pattern to be used, thus
- creating false display with nifty
- backgrounds.
- - fixed internal total messup caused by
- the image decoder sending messages
- to the virtgroup container which
- in turn broadcasted this to all

- If a GIF specifies transparency,
- but in fact doesn't use the transparent
- color, the mask is freed to spare memory
- and reduce blit times.
- - fixed GIF anim background refresh problem
- (without additional memory usage for
- double buffering :-)

- with other means than closing all
- active windows

- images as memory permits, including auto
- flush with low memory handler. Uses
- cybergfx when available, including proper
- handling of Non-Colormapped destinations
- (HiColor/TrueColor screens). Incremental
- display speed is scaled depending on
- "how fast" image data comes in.
- - removed "Broken Image" image. Image boxes
- now stay textual until some image is loaded.
- Broken images are alttext'ed with '╫' prefix,
- still loading ones with '╖' prefix.
- - the logo anim is now loaded from disk
- instead of being hardcoded into the program.
- Filename is "TransferAnim". Plain IFF file
- with frames in horizontal order. Use an icon
- with tooltype "FRAMEWIDTH=pixels" to specify
- frame width, otherwise totalsize/16 is assumed.
- Recognizes WIDTH for IB compatibility :)
- Recognizes "FRAMETICKS=milliseconds" as
- a frame timer (defaults to 150). First
- frame is considered "idle image" and not
- included in the anim. FRAMES= and HEIGHT=
- are not required.
-
- V1.15alpha
- ----------
- - no longer wraps images in <PRE> environment
-
- V1.14alpha
- ----------
- - http loader didn't strip #fragments from the URL
- when first accessing a object thus causing
- "object not found" errors.
- - redirect caused <freed memory> to be send
- as Referer:, causing poolwatch hits and
- possibly crash.
- - fixed handling of <BLOCKQUOTE> which was
- broken all the time (handled like <PRE>).
-
- V1.13alpha
- ----------
- - fixed <PRE> handling
- - improved rendering of small background images alot

- when expected to
- - fixed text fitting ignoring width extending styles.
- - fixed object size calculation bug which happened
- when a text string fitted exactly into the provided
- space
- - added a workaround for broken HTML where
- <TD WIDTH> plus table borders exceeds <TABLE WIDTH>.
- Fixes http://www.cam.org/~ericgir/amiga.html :-)
- - now parses broken <MAP> which uses blanks to seperate
- coords.
-
- V1.12alpha
- ----------
- - fixed word wrap loosing one char sometimes.
- - reenabled Goto/Location switch in main
- URL gadget with MUI 3.7++
- - fixed excess status bar refreshes
- while the mouse is over a table cell
- object
-
- V1.11alpha
- ----------
- - now honours <IMG WIDTH|HEIGHT> tags and draws
- an empty box of appropriate size (with the alttext)
- to avoid layout cluttering while images come in
- - fixed refresh bug
- - fixed severe memory trashing when hitting
- an image map area with more than 4 coordinates.
- Has been in there since client side image map
- first implementation.
-
- V1.10alpha
- ---------
- - fixed <INPUT TYPE=hidden> (or unknowns) causing
- the layout to be sucked up <stacktrash> pixels
- width or height.
- - fixed several other small layout bugs
-
- V1.9alpha
- ---------
- - fixed <LI> image sizing
- - fixed <LI> images sometimes causing a crash on clear
