ANSITerm Version 2.1

[paul.parkhurst@uttsbbs.uucp (Paul Parkhurst)]

DIALING DIRECTORY ENHANCEMENTS:

*   Directory has been expanded to 50 entries
*   New housekeeping features include sorting,
deletion of entries, insertion of entries,
and moving entries around.
*   More information is now stored with each
directory entry, including:
- Delete key mode
- Backspace mode
- Number of lines to scroll
- Cost per minute online
- Cost per hour online
- All ASCII Text Send settings
- Default transfer protocol
- Send and receive Binary II flags
- MS-DOS file name setting



FILE TRANSFERS ENHANCEMENTS:

*   The estimated time of completion for the file
currently being transferred now appears in the
transfer dialog.  This estimate is recalculated
after each packet of information is received,
so it gives you an up-to-the-second approximation
of when the file transfer will be completed.
*   Up to 64 files may now be selected for a batch
send from any directory and volume.
*   ASCII Text receive has been completely changed.
All ANSITerm commands and macros will work during
an ASCII receive.  ANSITerm Version 2.1 will now
just buffer any received text, filtering control
codes or not depending on your preference.  You
can pause, cancel, or finish the receive at
any time and save it to a text file.
*   ANSITerm can now automatically add a Binary II header
onto any sent file using xmodem or ymodem.
*   Binary II extraction will now work with ymodem batch
receives.
*   ASCII Text send will now perform intelligent word wrap,
depending on the line size setting.  See SEND TO MODEM,
above for more details and other new features.



OTHER ENHANCEMENTS AND NEW FEATURES:

*   The Set File Attributes option in the Disk
Utilities will now lock and unlock files
with a single keystroke.
*   Up to 64 files may now be copied at one time
using the Disk Utilities.
*   You can now enter a valid command while the
Help Window is displayed and go directly
to that command.
*   View command will now work with Appleworks
Classic AWP files.  You may also specify
virtual baud rate, CR mode, whether or not
to perform word wrap, and whether or not to
add the viewed file to scrollback.
*   High-speed serial port drivers will now perform
software handshaking when their buffers are
getting full.  This prevents character loss
during high-speed message dumps.
*   File Dialogs will now sort directories and
display file names in both upper and lower
case.  Selecting directories has been made
more convienient and saving files will now
display a file dialog.
*   ANSI emulation now fully supports the PC
function keys and special keypad functions,
as well as arrow keys.
*   New three-line chat duplex, usable with
any emulation.
