3        'zlog in' will now take an optional thrid argument to set the
4             'tty' variable before setting the zlocation
[42abb10]5        There is now a 'zlist' command that acts like 'znol -l'
6        'l' is bound to 'zlist'
[62f24bc]7        Fixed memory leak uninitialzed memory read in fmtext
[3a2daac]8        viewwin will now say "End" instead of "More" when at the end

[1583c90]13        Fixed a bug in moving the poiner after an expunge
[f9c43ae]14        Fixed up the normal scrolling code.  Now it should always
15          land on a message, but it's still not optimal.
16        Added the variable 'smartstrip' which will strip kerberos
17          instances out for the 'reply' command.
18        Added -R/usr/athena/lib to the build for Athena
[bde7714]19        Started updating the intro document
20        Small changes to help / about
21        The 'subscribe' and 'unsubscribe' commands (and their aliases) now
22          update .zephyr.subs by default.  If either is given the '-t'
23          (for "temporary") option the .zephyr.subs will not be updated
[5a6e6b9]24        Turned off beeping for hitting the top or bottom of the list of
25          messages
26        Made daemon.webzephyr a special case for smartstrip
27        Added 'out' as a default filter for outgoing messages
[425c013]28       
[60ffe04]291.2.3
30        Added filters "ping", "auto" and "login" by default.
[75be7c0]31        Added "body" as a valid field to match on in a filter.
[4b464a4]32        Temporary fix to bug where C-SPACE would cause the key handler to
33             lock up.
34        Messages now have a direciton (in, out or none).  Filters can
[5145235]35             match on this direction
[4b464a4]36        Outbound messages are no longer type 'admin' but are of the
37             appropriate message type (i.e. 'zephyr') and are direction
38             'out'.
39        Smartnarrow now works on outgoing messages
40        'info' updated to show more information for admin and outgoing
41             messages
42        Renamed pretty_sender to short_zuser and renamed long_sender to
43             long_zuser
[56330ff]44        Moved zsig generation to the zwrite object
45        Print the zsig used for outgoing messages
[61e79a9]46        The tty variable now controls the zephyr location tty name
[60ffe04]47       
[1fd0b25]481.2.2
49        Added the 'search' command.
50        '/' is a keybinding for 'search'
51        '?' is a keybinding for 'search -r'
52        Fixed stristr, which was completely broken
53        renamed owl_fmtext_ztext_stylestrip to owl_function_ztext_styletsrip
54             and put it in functions.c
[59cf91c]55        Attempts to stay near the current message when switching views.
56             When switching from an empty view to one we've previously
57             been in, the new current message position will attempt
58             to be close to the current position from the last
59             time we visited that view.
[67103d4]60        Fixed bug in readconfig.c that prevented building under perl 5.005.
61        Switched "C-x C-x" to only "startcommand quit"
[9bd2c17]62        'getsubs' prints closer to the order you sub in.
[5eeea3b]63        Modified the behavior of last so that "> >" will clear the screen.
64        The new behavior of last is:
65              Moves the pointer to the last message in the view.
66              If we are already at the last message in the view,
67              blanks the screen and moves just past the end of the view
68              so that new messages will appear starting at the top
69              of the screen.
70        Fixed a typo in the help for smartzpunt.
71        Fixed functions to handle curmsg being past the end of the view.
72
[8509c08]731.2.1
74        New framework for command handling.
75        New framework for keymap handling.
76        Added commands for everything that is bound
77             to a key (do 'show commands' to get the full list).
78        Added 'multi' and '(' commands to allow multiple commands
79             to be specified on a line.             
80        Added user keybindings with bindkey command.
81        Added command aliases (eg, "alias foo bar").
82        Added undelete command that parallels the delete command.
83        Added additional options to delete command.
84        The reply command now takes arguments.
85        Added 'edit:insert-text' command.
86        Added 'show zpunts' to show active punt filters.
87        Added 'show variable <name>' and 'show variables'.
88        Added 'show command <name>' and 'show commands'.
89        Added 'show keymap <name>' and 'show keymaps'.
90        Added 'M-u' to undelete all messages in current view.
91        Fixed dotsend so that the zephyr will still send if there
92             is whitespace after the dot but not on the same line.
93             This should resolve an issue where dotsend wouldn't work
94             if you'd gone up and edited a zephyr.
95        Bug in page down fixed
96        C-t will transpose characters
[aa2f33b3]97        Fix the scrolling bug where we would sometimes fail to scroll
98             the screen down, leaving the current message off
99             the bottom of the screen.
[8509c08]100        Refixed 'login or login' typo in help
101        Fixed M-u description
102        Removed 'first' and 'last' from basic command help
103        Added M-N to basic key help
104        Added M-D, M-u to basic key help
105        Fixed a quoting problem in configure.in
106        Changed top of help to use 'show' instead of M-x
107        Fixed a bug in the summary field for user-created aliases
108        Added "reply zaway" which sends a zaway response to the current msg.
109        Added "edit:delete-prev-word" command and bound M-BACKSPACE to it.
110        Some buffer overruns fixed
111        Variables now have a summary and a long description.
112                Only the summary is shown with help.
113                The long description is shown with "show variable foo".
[aa2f33b3]114        Added a 'scrollmode' variable which determines how the screen
[8509c08]115             will scroll as the cursor moves.  The default behaves
116             identically to previous versions of owl.
[aa2f33b3]117             The following modes are supported:
[8509c08]118             normal      - This is the owl default.  Scrolling happens
119                           when it needs to, and an attempt is made to
120                           keep the current message roughly near
121                           the middle of the screen.  (default)
122             top         - The current message will always be the
123                           the top message displayed.
124             neartop     - The current message will be one down
125                           from the top message displayed,
126                           where possible.
127             center      - An attempt is made to keep the current
128                           message near the center of the screen.
129             paged       - The top message displayed only changes
130                           when user moves the cursor to the top
131                           or bottom of the screen.  When it moves,
132                           the screen will be paged up or down and
133                           the cursor will be near the top or
134                           the bottom.
135             pagedcenter - The top message displayed only changes
136                           when user moves the cursor to the top
137                           or bottom of the screen.  When it moves,
138                           the screen will be paged up or down and
139                           the cursor will be near the center.
140        Added owl_sprintf which returns the formatted string, or NULL.
141                The caller must free this string.
142                This will allocate enough memory and thus
143                avoid potential some buffer overrun situations.
144        Simple implementation of 'zwrite -m' (doesn't yet log an outgoing
145                message as having been sent.)
146        The "Not logged in or subscribing to messages" error
147                now includes the name of the recipient.
148        The "disable-ctrl-d" variable may also be set to "middle"
149                which will result in ctrl-d only sending at the
150                end of the message.  This is now the default.
151                This also added a command "editmulti:done-or-delete".
152        Fixed a bug in the "reply -e" command.
153        Always clear the command buffer before executing the command.
154                (So that interactive commands can sanely do start-command.)
155        Fixed preservation of e->dotsend across owl_editwin_clear().
156        Added history for multiline edit windows (eg, for zephyr composition).
157                The M-n and M-p keys will cycle through the history ring.
158                In particular, it is now possible to edit the command line
159                of a zephyr being composed:  C-c it and restart it
160                and then M-p to get the aborted composition back.
161        Added owl::send_zwrite(command, message) to the perl glue
162                to allow for the direct sending of multi-line messages.
163                For example:  owl::send_zwrite("-c foo -i bar", "hello");
164        Changed owl_fmtext_print_plain to return an alloc'd string to
165                avoid buffer overrun risks.
166        Added owl::ztext_stylestrip("...") function to perlglue
167                 which returns the ztext with formatting stripped out.
168        Added colorztext variable which can be used to disable @color()
169                 strings arriving in messages after it is set.
170                 (Currently, changing its value won't reformat messages).
171        Outgoing zephyr logging now obeys the logpath variable.
172        The '~' character in logpath and classlogpath now gets
173                 replaced with the user's home directory.
174        Added simple implementation of smartnarrow-to-admin that
175                 creates a "type-admin" autofilter.
176                 This was done mostly so that M-C-n and M-C-p do something
177                 sane on admin messages.
178        Added opera to the allowed options to the webbrowser variable.
179        Fixed some buffer overruns in the "reply" command.
180        When repying to "all" on a message that begins with "CC:" (eg, sent
181                 with "zwrite -C", the reply line will be constructed
182                 from the sender and the usernames on the CC: line
183                 of the message being replied to.
184        There is no such thing as C-R, so left C-r as it is but added:
185                 M-r --- edit reply to all
186                 M-R --- edit reply to sender
187        Added RCS Id strings to all files.
188        'show keymaps' shows details of all keymaps after summary list.
189        Added --no-move option to delete command.
190                In particular, delete-and-always-move-down may now
191                be implemented with
192                '( delete --no-move ; next --skip-deleted )'.
193        Folded the nextmsg and prevmsg commands and functions together into
194                one command which takes arguments.
195                Added '--filter <name>' option (eg, for next_personal),
196                '--skip-deleted' option, and
197                '--last-if-none'/'--first-if-none' options.
198                Help updated accordingly. 
199                In particular, the 'personal' filter is now used
200                for 'next personal'. 
201                Added --smart-filter and --smart-filter-instance options
202                to the next and prev commands.
203        Updated examples/owlconf.erik with the above.
204        Made owl_function_fast*filt return a string and not do the
205                narrowing, to make it more general.
206        Added a smartfilter command that creates a filter
207                based on the current message and returns the name
208                of the filter.
209        Added M-C-n and M-C-p keybindings to "move to next message
210                matching current" and "move to previous message
211                matching current"
212        Added variables edit:maxfillcols and edit:maxwrapcols which
213                will limit how wide editing paragraphs may get before
214                they get wrapped.  This is a max and may be narrower
215                depending on the current size of the window.
216                If 0, the max is unlimited.  Default is 70 columns for
217                edit:maxfillcols and unlimited for edit:maxwrapcols.
218        Added smartzpunt command with key binding of "C-x k".
219                This starts a zpunt command filled in with
220                the proposed zpunt.
221        Fixed a memory reference bug in delete and undelete commands.
222        Added support for perl to call directly back into owl.
223        Changed the implementation of owl::command("...") to immediately
224                call back into owl.  This allows perl to get the return
225                value of strings returned by owl commands.
226        Added the getview command which returns the name of the current
227                view's filter. 
228        Added the getvar command which returns the value of a variable.
229        Added an example to examples/owlconf.erik which uses TAB to
230                narrow and restore the view. 
231        Added an example to examples/owlconf.erik which uses M-c to
232                color messages matching the current one green.
233        Integrated change to fix problem with popup blinking on new zephyrs.
234        C-l and resizes will now refresh an open viewwin (eg, help).
235        Updated doc/code.txt to include info about filters, commands,
236                contexts, and keybindings.
237        Exec commands cleaned up to not have buffer-size limitations
238                and to not mess up spaces.  exec also returns a string
239                of the output now.
240        Integrated changes from 1.1.3, and added docs for "zlocate -d"
241                and new show commands.
242        Show with arguments produces help on show.
243        Fix a bug in readconfig caught by efence (where we'd try to read before
244                the beginning of a string if it was empty).
[7d4fbcd]245        The perl command doesn't do makemsg directly, but instead
[8509c08]246             returns the string and it will get printed if it
247             was run interactively.
[7d4fbcd]248       
2491.1.3
250        'show subs' and 'show subscriptions' are now the same as 'getsubs'
251        zlocate now takes an optional -d argument

261        'show terminal' includes whether the terminal can change colors
262        fixed off by one bugs in paging / scrolling viewwin
263        don't downcase the sender when getting the log name for personals
264        support @owl::fields as well as @fields
265        downcase class/inst filter names in auto filters
266
2671.1.2
268        Fixed memory mishandling bug
269        Fixed bug in redfining the filter attached to the current view
270        M-n will narrow to message, instance on non-personal, class
271             MESSAGE messages
272        M-N behavies like M-n except that on class messages it narrows
273            to class and instance

365        Fixed an arg checking bug in delete command
366        Added owl::id to perl namespace with message id
367        Fixed a memory corruption bug in readconfig.c (where right
368              after the strdup to "out", we'd strcat a \n onto the end.
369              This would be triggered whenever owl::format_msg returned
370              a string not ending in a newline
371        Added 'X' keybinding which expunges and then switches to
372              a view defined by the variable "view_home" which defaults
373              to "all"
374        Consolidated readconfig.c somewhat to remove duplication.
375              owl_config_execute now returns a string.
376        Added an example config file that does vt-style formatting.
377              (examples/owlconf.vtformat)
378        Added the 'perl', 'aperl', and 'pperl' commands which will
379              evaluate perl expressions.
380        Fixed bug where pclose zsigproc would cause zombies
381        Can set zsigproc or zsig to "" to disable
382        Added support for multiple browsers (galeon and none were added).
383              Configure with the "webbrowser" variable.

385        Added zsig variable which will be used if no zsigproc and non-empty.
386        Added "make test" rule to Makefile which will run regression tests,
387              and added regression testing framework to tester
388        Fixed codelist.pl to ignore static declarations.
389        Added dict.c which contains string->ptr dictionary routines
390              and the owl_dict type.
391              These include regression tests.
392        Overhaul/rewrite of variable handling.  Variables are now managed
393              in an owl_vardict (in g.vars) which contains a dictionary
394              of owl_variable's.  Each owl_variable has dispatch functions
395              for validating values, setting it and getting it,
396              and for setting it to and from string values.
397              The variable.c file contains the list of variables.
398              Stubs for the owl_global_<varname>_get functions and friends
399              are generated from variable.c by stubgen.pl.
400              The help.c messages for variables now calls into variable.c
401              so all information about most variables is in one place.   
402        Cleaned out code from global.c and command.c that was made obselete
403              by variable overhaul.
404        The set command now takes a -q option to not log a message.
405        Fixed a bug where set and print with no arguments would
406              print "Undefined variable" in addition
407              to running owl_function_printallvars.
408        debug is now a variable that can be turned on and off.
409        Fixed mail,inbox message parsing in examples/owlconf.erik
410        Made zaway_msg and zaway_msg_default into variables
411        Changed owl_function_makemsg and owl_function_debugmsg
412               to use varargs (ie, so they can now take a format
413               string with args).
414        Don't allow " and \ characters in URLs with the "w" command.
415        Removed lots of build warnings.
416        Popwins are wider by default so help messages fit better.

418        Fixes to work with an older version of libzephyr.

423        Added appendtosepbar variable which may contain text which will
424              be appended to the sepbar.  This allows the configfile
425              to put information about pings and logins into
426              the sepbar.  (It may be worth also providing a variable
427              which enables this by default, but for now this allows
428              for experimenting with what works well.)
429        Added doc/code.txt which gives a brief overview of the code.
430        Added tags makefile rule and added TAGS to distclean rule.
431
