2qwk! progress



[Received from Tom Larson, edited and added to by me for accuracy.]


2.01b5 - Send a secret message, send it by a worm.

    1.  New & improved since 2.0 release

       - Insert mode in editor

       - Delete key action in editor

       - Printing of messages (now with linefeeds!)

       - Esc cancellation of export & print

       - Insertion mode for editor imports

       - Setable mouse slot? (cmd)

       - Message header can be modified from editor

       - Cmd when launching creates Rep

       - Export (and printing) write (or print) a final ^m (or ^m^j) so
         as to make things real purty-like (form feed?)

       - Control codes in messages are now shown as inverse characters

       - New preferences item: hardware (clock, mouse, printer slot,
         add linefeeds to print jobs  ... I don't have a printer so you
         will have to figure your own printer driver requirements)

    2.  Fixed since 2.0 release

       - More than 255 messages in a conference

       - Really large messages

       - Mouse?

       - This may be just a sick manifestation of my own host (but possibly
         all os/2 pcboards) but it has taken to putting null bytes at the
         end of the message text (but not the physical end of the message)
         so attempts to read a conference sequentially didn't work.

       - Carbon copies

    3.  Fixed since 2.01 release

       - The overstrike-up-scrolling error is fixed

       - Print crashing

       - Multiple single file exports don't crash
