This is ScrollZ IRC client changelog

Meaning of flags:
+ = new stuff
! = fixed stuff
- = removed stuff
~ = changed stuff

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ScrollZ v1.8m, 15.10.2001

    ~ AUTORECON crash (reported by Tero)
    - debian subdirectory
    ~ default compile time flags in defs.h.in
    + man page (contributed by Debian maintainer Mike Markley)
    ~ distclean now removes auto generated header files
    ~ prefix/lib to prefix/share/scrollz
    ! compile without -DWANTANSI
    + EXTPUB to show status on public messages (@/+ in front of nick,
      requested by entropy)
    + WINDOW SIZE (requested by MadHack)
    ~ changed .ircquick to .scrollzquick
    + permanent ignores (the ones set with IGNORE command) are now saved
      to ScrollZ.save (requested by ogre)
    ! channel settings not being set upon join from .scrollzrc (thanks
      to gamo for figuring this out)
    + define for alphabetically sorted nicks in CSCAN to defs.h
    - AUTORECON since it is handled by a SET
    + anonymous channel topic handling on hybrid7 (reported by braneded)
    + numeric 308 (server admin) on hybrid7 (patch submitted by braneded)
    ! -DCELECOSM without -DCELE compile (reported by braneded)
    ! numeric 477 for IRCNet
    + numeric 276 (virtual channels) on hybrid7 (request by braneded)
    + INSTALL.ScrollZ in doc subdirectory (hello Exodus)
    ! handle ! channels on ircd 2.10 properly, not the ircII way
      (reported by Ahnberg)
    ~ tabkey handler, when line starts with /MSG we adhere to the pre 1.8l
      tabeky behaviour (line is cleared when tab is pressed and next nick
      from the list is inserted, requested by several users)
    + re-added ^T bind so one can use it to insert nicks when line starts
      with /MSG (see above)
    ! status bar bug where string was cut one column too early (reported
      by jaska)
    + CHPASS filter - now removes user's password (suggested by braneded)
    ! WHOIS in -DGENX now honours value of STAMP (reported by kore)
    + time stamping to CSCAN
    + -DALTERNATE_PUBLICS to defs.h which uses () in publics instead of <>
      (requested by several users)
    + halfops handling for hybrid7 (% denotes halfop status in status bar,
      EXTPUB, CSCAN, etc., coded by braneded)
    + halfops in friends lists, flag is h (coded by braneded)
    + WHO now accepts -HOPS for halfops (coded by braneded)
    + -H and -NH for SHOWUSER (coded by braneded)
    + $chanusers(#channel 1) returns %nick for halfops (coded by braneded)
    + HOP, DHOP, MHOP, MDHOP (coded by braneded)
    ~ mass commands take -F to mean affect/don't affect friends. we'll still
      accept -O in case scripts use it. MHOP only sends +h for non opped
      users. MASSV only sends +v for non halfopped / opped users. they're
      also more specific when nobody's to be affected. i.e. MOP -O said
      "no users to op on #channel". now says "no friends to op on #channel"
      (coded by braneded)
    + MC sends -a on hybrid7 servers (coded by braneded)
    + halfops stuff in CHANST and improved look (coded by braneded)
    ~ index is now a section in ScrollZ.help (idea by braneded)
    + handle numeric 263 (load too high). it resets internal links flag so
      we can do another LINKS et al. as soon as we like (coded by braneded)
    - Cdcc handling via messages
    + timestamp to DCC chat (requested by ogre)
    + TOPICLOCK and TOPICUNLOCK to lock/unlock topic (requested by acidflash)
      only available if compiled with -DEXTRAS
    ! don't lose mode lock when we part a channel
    ! don't lose mode lock when we have joined too many channels
    + FCLINE, FLLINE to filter C: and L: lines (requested by ogre)
    + timestamp to WHO reply
    ! ORIGNICK losing QUIET setting when ORIGNICK without args was executed
      (reported by fox)
    + semi-colon is now allowed in SET DCC_PORTS (a-la iptables or ipchains)
    + netsplit/netjoin messages and signon/signoff messages now use value
      of timestamp to format the output
    ! hash function to work with high ASCII nicks (used on Russian servers,
      reported by Koban)
    - orignick based on notify signoff
    + ORIGNICK now allows multiple nicks (separate them with comma, requested
      by fox)
    ~ annoying PONG notice when connecting through psyBNC (thanks to markalso
      for debugging) but other things might not work 100% because psyBNC mucks
      with the data stream between client and server
    ! don't crash doing MAP if no LINKS info is returned by ircd (reported
      by braneded)
    + customizable timestamp format (SET STAMP_FORMAT to see default example,
      code submitted by braneded, thanks)
    ! don't skip IRC operators in FTRACE (reported by Hans)
    ! show command that caused error in ScrollZ.save file

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ScrollZ v1.8l, 3.7.2001

    ! TOPIC ircII bug (reported by Tero)
    ! MOP/MDOP/MASSV/MASSDV bug in huge channels (reported by ogre)
    ! ORIGNICK saving to ScrollZ.save (reported by Tero)
    ~ new logo by juice
    + parsing of @#channel so it is recognised as channel wallop
      (requested by fox)
    + time stamping to notice display (thanks to fox for reminding me)
    ! crash when kicked from a channel during TBAN (reported by ogre)
    ~ MODELOCK w/o args now shows stored mode locks for all channels
      (requested by ogre)
    ~ MODELOCK info is no longer lost when we part channel, I wonder how no
      one reported this for the past 2 years
    ! status %! and %y ate one character when invalid args were supplied
    ! status bar and input prompt now honour the value of SET DISPLAY_ANSI
      (found out by ogre)
    + people with Cdcc flag in userlist are exempt from queue and minspeed
      checking (requested by Blaxthos)
    ! display all settings properly not just ORIGNICK
    ! close slow DCC if file transfer does not meet minimum speed (stale
      connections or when user disconnects but client does not notice it)
    + CTCP yournick CDCC QUEUE will tell user their queue position
      (requested by Blaxthos)
    + LLOOK can now store and load information from a file (requested by
      Ahnberg, see help for more information)
    ~ new and improved tabkey handling, if input line starts with /msg nick
      client cycles through msg list otherwise it cycles through nicks
      matching word to the left of the cursor, this can be used to complete
      one channel too (idea by Ahnberg and fox) - this means tabkey in the
      middle of input line is now possible
    - NICK_COMPLETION is gone because of the above
    ~ ^T is back to TRANSPOSE_CHARACTERS
    ! DIRLSM now sends encrypted message to a user if encrypted communication
      with that user is established (reported by Tero)
    ! use current channel for WHO SHOW_SERVER if none specified
    ~ FKLINE now accepts optional -TEMP argument, read shelp for more info
      (requested by ogre)
    + SET AWAY_FILE to specify away file (requested by Ahnberg)
    + user's publics can now be ignored for specific channel only (example:
      IGNORE nick!#channel PUBLIC, requested by blazini)
    + SHOWSIGN to show signoff in all channels user was in (requested by
      Ahnberg and fox)
    + quarantined nicks, full I: line and X: line warning parsing to OV
      (requested by ogre)
    ! crash in input line history search (ircII bug)
    + TIME option to LASTLOG (example: LASTLOG -TIME 19:00-20:00 would only
      print lastlog entries between 19:00 and 20:00), it works only with
      STAMP enabled, lines without time stamp are exempt from matching

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ScrollZ v1.8k, 22.1.2001

    + multiple channels can now be bound to one window (requested by Ahnberg)
    + WINDOW BIND #chan1,#chan2,... is now possible (requested by Ahnberg)
    ! SERVER + bug
    + exclusive REPWORD (see help for more info, requested by Ahnberg)
    ! WHO and MODE #channel b bug on ircnet servers when joining &oper
      channels (thanks to Tero for help)
    ! bug in ENCRMSG encryption, passwords test and testtest were both
      able to decrypt encrypted messages (read help for compatibility issues,
      thanks Viha)
    ~ better handling of server pings for splitted servers (requested by ogre)
    ~ upon loading of ScrollZ.save CDCC PTIME and NTIME are set to two hours
      (requested by many users)
    + environment variable DCCHOST can be set to IP address for DCC offers
      (this is useful in combination with SET DCC_PORTS if you are behind a
      firewall)
    ! FTRACE bugs with clients containing [ in nickname, also colorized and
      formatted the display (reported by Ahnberg)
    + WHO -SHOW_SERVER to show server in WHO (requested by Tero and others)
    ! prevented excess floods upon CTCP CDCC LIST with huge offers (reported
      by Myrlin)
    ! whois queue handling with servers that in some cases return only
      numeric 401 but not numeric 318 (thanks to markalso for helping me
      with this one)
    ~ STAMP to show time stamp for a lot more events, read help for more
      information (rule of thumb: time stamp is displayed where SCROLLZ_STRING
      would be displayed in older releases when STAMP is set to MAX)
    + new argument NOMODES in OV to supress sending user modes to server when
      OperVision is enabled/disabled (see help for more information, requested
      by crystlize)
    + SET AUTO_RECONNECT to enable/disable automatic reconnect, SET is used so
      it can be set prior to connect in ~/.scrollzrc (aparently some servers
      K: line you for doing this, requested by Jakes)
    ~ LASTJOINER_KICK will only kick target user from channel they joined
      (requested by ogre)
    ~ BK, BKI and BKT now accept (optional) channel name
    + parsing of SERVER to OperVision for IRCNet, also SQUIT now shows reason
      (requested by Tero)
    + encrypted communication is now indicated by [!] in publics and private
      messages (requested by Ahnberg)
    ! REMS failing when nicks were different
    ! core dump when removing last server from the server list (ircII bug)
    + merged ircII 4.4Z changes
    + optional QUIET arg in ORIGNICK to supress messages during attempt to
      gain nick (requested by kitten, read help for usage information)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ScrollZ v1.8j, 15.8.2000

Note that the below log is in some cases inconsistent because it was
written accross the v1.8i# (#=1-6) series. Hopefully from now on I'll
be releasing new version in shorter intervals. Also new web page is
in works and will be announced when it will be ready! The changelog
for versions pre 1.8j has been deleted and will be available on the
web page.

    ! Cdcc min speed bug (reported by EA)
    + flags are now used in ScrollZ.save for userlist and shitlist entries
      instead of cryptic numbers
    ! auto nick completion bug
    ! CDCC LOAD now updates number of offered packages
    + added MKILL (in -DACID) by acidflash (DEFKILL is default reason, it is
      saved in ScrollZ.save)
    ! core dump on WHOIS in some cases when country was defined
      (reported by PreZ)
    ! userlist/shitlist bug related to whowas buffer
    ! keyboard handling when prompting for key (URL, SETAWAY,...)
      (reported by ack)
    + REMCHAN (opposite of ADDCHAN, requested by JMnemonic)
    + -ALL to LK (it will kick all non opped users)
    + IDLEKICK AUTO channels is now possible, it will kick non opped idle users
      (requested by JMnemonic)
    ! STATS K core dumping on FEFnet
    ! nasty ircII bug that sometimes led to crash on window kill
      (thanks to c9c1 for help and hints)
    ! bug when you join too many channels (reported by Fryguy)
    + encryption for userlist passwords (if you use this feature ask
      for utility that will update ScrollZ.save, requested by cain)
    ~ changed encryption for ScrollZ.save, if you use this feature ask for
      new decode utility
    ~ URL catcher now ignores dupes (requested by arc)
    ~ client will now start DCC send from queue when CDCC LIMIT is increased
      (requested by arc)
    ! reconnect on kill, should now work with multiple windows connected
      to different server
    + $8 to DCC_LIST hook, it stands for filesize (requested by nas)
    ~ INSERT_TABKEY to INSERT_TABKEY_NEXT
    + INSERT_TABKEY_PREV (default bind is alt-i, requested by Myrdraal)
    + DCC, Cdcc, tabkey and auto-reply are now multiple servers compliant
      (requested by several users)
    + SET DCC_PORTS, usage is /set dcc_ports low_port-high_port, this
      tells client to only use ports from range low-port-high_port for DCC
      connections (this is useful for people who are behind a firewall so
      they can open only a limited number of ports), when set to 0 it has
      no effect (requested by someone whose nick I forgot, if you are
      reading this please remind me to put your name here). Note that this
      is only used for DCC CHAT and DCC SEND.
    + CHSIGNOFF to -DEXTRAS, when set to on it will display list of channels
      when user quit IRC (requested by Merlin)
    + STAMP, when enabled client will show time in front of publics
      (requested by acidflash)
    + if channel in CDCC CHANNELS starts with + it means client will use
      CDCC NOTICE instead of CDCC PLIST for that channel (requested by Zig)
    ! when DCC chat is established nick is added to tabkey list (reported
      by ogre)
    ! JOIN 1,2,3 now joins #1, #2 and #3 (reported by Merlin)
    ! odd bug on join where channel would be suddenly bound to completely
      unrelated window, it had to do with the way ircII maintains window
      list and whowas buffer for channels
    ! crash when user sent large ammounts of files (reported by arc)
    ! shitlist bug with ident being 10 characters long
    ! CHSIGNOFF always showing regardless of setting (reported by kali)
    ! WALL ignoring SHOWWALLOP value from ScrollZ.save
    + WALL now accepts optional target channel as first argument (requested
      by Zero)
    ! status bar not showing usermode +z when set
    ~ DCC ACTIONs now go to window with level DCC or to window whose query nick
      matches DCC nick (reported by Myrdraal)
    ~ orignick will not react on notify signoff if your userhost matches
      userhost of person that signed off, but you have to be on
      a channel for this to work (requested by arc)
    ! wallops not displaying nick when OperVision was active (reported
      by pier)
    ! input prompt bugs shown with ANSI prompts (reported by [Una])
    ~ Cdcc queue now ignores dupes and files already present in DCC list
      (requested by art3mis)
    ! fixed $szvar() core dumping with NULL strings (thanks to whitefang
      for figuring this one)
    + DIRLM, DIRLN, DIRLSM and DIRLSN are now multiple servers compliant
      (requested by several users)
    + last join in status bar and LASTJOINER_KICK are now multiple server
      compliant
    + CDCC VERBOSE, when set to off remote Cdcc messages are hidden
      from user (requested by Zig)
    + COLOR SBAR2
    + new status modifier %y#, # is digit or letter in range a-c,
      digits 1-6 represent color1 through color6 from COLOR SBAR
      whereas digits 7-9 and letters a-c represent color1 through
      color6 from COLOR SBAR2 - take a look at default status bar
      variables to see use of this then try COLOR SBAR BLACKBG to
      see it at work (idea and coding by Zakath)
    ! crash when there were no servers in server list (there were
      two related bugs, one on my part and the other is from stock
      client - this is system dependant, reported by Myrdraal)
    ! bitch mode bug (reported by ogre)
    + ability to complete first matching channel name on ^T and
      TAB (try /M #first_few_letters_of_channel<TAB> or
      #first_few_letters_of_channel<^T>)
    + Cdcc hooks now also work on CTCP your_nick CDCC LIST
    + FTRACE to -DACID
    + NWHOIS now accepts filter (requested by TrN)
    + MIRC STRIP which strips mIRC color crap (requested by Sparhawk)
    ! crash related to tabkey (reported by Psylocke)
    ~ SHOWUSER, it now allows multiple filters and N flags (check
      help for more information)
    + ability to send files with spaces in filenames (surround filename
      by double quotes ("), requested by arc)
    ! properly handle mIRC colors by ddd
    ! stock client logging bug for good (reported by justme_)
    + merged ircII 4.4F code
    + CDCC SAVE now saves number of gets for each pack, and CDCC LOAD restores
      it (requested by Zig)
    + AUTOOPDELAY (requested by enkil)
    ! IGNORE * CRAP preventing client from caching topic (reported by
      Sparhawk)
    + new friend list flag X for instant op

      support is being worked on)
    + random signoff messages
    + cele.sz script
    + COLOR CELE

      length of the channel shown in publics. For example:
      *** Wizner (w@blah.somehost.com) has joined channel #reallylongchannel
      <Wizner:#real> hi
      *** Value of TRUNCATE_PUBLIC_CHANNEL set to OFF
      <Wizner:#reallylongchannel> hi
    + QUICKSTAT command, which uses STATUS_FORMAT3. Default bind is F6.
      This should be considered work in progress.

      moved to general client, it is ON for Celerity and OFF otherwise)
