.----------------------. --| X-Chat ChangeLog |-------------------------------------------- `----------------------' To see more details of bugs, go to this URL: http://sf.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100239&group_id=239&aid=NUMBER Where "NUMBER" is the bug number. This log DOES NOT apply to XChat for Windows. There are always more changes than listed here, these are just the highlights. The full CVS log is available at www.xchat.org/cvslog/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2.8.10 - dd/mm/yyyy ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Perl (Lian Wan Situ) * Added two new options to hook_print, run_after_event and filter. See documentation for details. * When building on Windows, generate the name of the DLL for the Perl library based on information from the header files instead of hardcoding the value. * Fixed a bug in the reinit handling code. The bug prevented the plugin from cleaning up properly. Which includes unloading scripts and removing their GUI entries. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2.8.8 - 30/May/2010 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Made balloon time adjustable via /set input_balloon_time (Nicoleau Fabien). - Fixed a crash in the /SET command if a boolean value was loaded from config file that isn't set to 0 or 1. - Added -on and -off parameters to the /SET command. This can be used to set bits, for example gui_tweaks. - Made scrolling backwards for the search window act better (Richard Hitt). - [2045483] Made ESC key close the search window (Richard Rowell). - Improved the reconnect logic. If a network is already open but disconnected, it'll now get re-used if you use the Network List and connect to that same network. - Improved scrollback reloading speed significantly (Soeren Sandmann Pedersen). - [2957047] Handle CTCPs when IDmsg is used correctly (Lian Wan Situ). - [2987626] Allow /GHOST's password arg to be optional (Ori Avtalion). - Added networks: 7-indonesia, ChattingAway, GeekShed, TURLINet. - When switching tabs, make the treeview only scroll if the selected item isn't visible [treeview-less-jumping.diff] (Brian Evans). - Selecting an item in the nickmenu will now copy it to clipboard (Alex Kutepow). - New icons for notification area (systray): file offer, message and highlight (Brian Evans). - Defined a comparison routine for contexts in Python (Brian Evans). - For the auto-join command, added an 'x' filler for empty keys. This works around a bug in ircd-seven. - When a single channel MODE changes, xchat will no longer re-issue a MODE request for the titlebar display, but figure the new modes intelligently (Brian Evans). - Various text event changes (Brian Evans): 1. Added "Private Action", "Private Action to Dialog", "SSL Message". 2. Added "Identified text" parameter all the 'action' events. 3. Added a $3 parameter to "Server Text". - Perl (Lian Wan Situ) * Fixed a bug that resulted in timer hooks being leaked because "return REMOVE" from a timer callback was not unhooking like it was supposed to * Reverted the unintentional change to how the server argument of print() and command() is interepreted when it is undef * Add hook_fd to the 'hooks' export tag * Fixed a leak in XS_Xchat_get_list(Vincent Pit) * Change Xchat::register so that scripts calling it without a name or version will still show up in the plugins and scripts window. * Added calls to PERL_SYS_INIT3 and PERL_SYS_TERM which are required on some platforms * Added some additional guards to prevents bits of scripts from spilling into each other * Added "modes", "win_ptr" and "xchatdirfs" to the list of keys that are returned by context_info() * Changed the information displayed in the "Plugins & Scripts" for scripts that do not call register() to show up as "" for the name and description and "unknown" for the version * /reloadall will now reload scripts in the same order they were loaded * Make xchat_send_modes available as Xchat::send_modes * Add support for getting the network list using Xchat::get_list( "networks" ) * Xchat::strip_code will now strip off ANSI escape codes as well -------------------------------------------------
INSTALLATION
============
Installation is straightforward. You need Audacious 1.4 or higher and D-Bus.
Open up the Makefile, check to make sure PCIIDS points to your pci.ids file.
	(Symptom if you get it wrong: raw PCI ID's (XXXX:XXXX) emitted by /VIDEO and friends).

Run: make
Run: make install

Voila!

NOTES:
`make install' copies the compiled library (something like xsys-v.v.v.so) to
$HOME/.xchat2/xsys-plugin.so for autoloading. If $HOME/.xchat2/xsys-plugin.so
exists, it is removed first.

See "Fill Spaces" setting in Setup->File Transfer (Fuentes Xavier). - Included some makefiles for ms visual c. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.8.2 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Fixed kick messages showing only the first word of the reason. - Fixed GTK warnings thrown up when closing a dialog window. - Fixed a bug in sending quit reasons. - Fixed a problem with handling op/voice modes that caused halfops to appear in the userlist when using bahamut. - Kanji conversion is now turned ON when locale is ja (Akira TAGOH). - Saved some memory when loading .conf files (about 40k). - When changing fonts, it now changes in the inputbox without having to restart. - Added safeguard to stop recursive user commands. - Added two /set variables dialog_width and dialog_height. Use these to set the default size of dialog windows. - Win32: fixed crash of 'Auto Accept DCC Send' menu item. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.8.1 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Fixed crash in having server tabs ON and channel tabs OFF. - Fixed crash when closing the channel list window AFTER all its server windows were closed. - Fixed potential crash of the font dialog in settings. - Made /exec read data line-by-line (Richard Fuchs). - Disabled the menubar while in shelltabs (it was dangerous to use it anyway). - Fixed the banlist window's Unban, which selected the wrong rows sometimes. - The Perl interpreter is now started only when loading the first script, to save memory when not using scripts. - Fixed lag/throttle meters not updating when set to text-only. - Fixed two small memory leaks. - Directories in your logmask are now created, so you can use masks like "%c/%y.log" in Setup->Logging (Tobias v. Koch). - xtext: FontSet rendering speedups. - Win32: made word and line selection work in xtext. - Win32: added url handler that sends to windows' shell. - Win32: rendering 8bit characters should now work. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.8.0 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Fixed a memory leak in popup menus. - Fixed crash in receiving private actions. - Added /set variable 'perccolor'. Options effect input box are now: perccolor: parse %C,%B,%U etc (default ON). percascii: parse %XXX (where XXX is an ascii value) (default OFF). Note: if perccolor is OFF, percascii will not work. - Win32: Fixed incorrect calculation of ping time. - Win32: Server lookup and connect is now threaded. - Win32: Server connection error now reported correctly. - Win32: A simple identd server is now builtin. - Win32: Copying text from xtext to clipboard now works. - Updated Swedish translation (Christian Rose). - Updated Spanish translation (Antonio de la Torre). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.7.8 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - xtext: Fixed parsing of "%C2, " to match mIRC, i.e. bg color is not reset, fg changes to 2 and the comma is printed (Fuentes Xavier). - xtext: a fix for multibyte text wrapping (Tetsuo YAMAMOTO). - Made notify NOT announce everyone offline when you first login. - Multiple WATCHes are sent on one line for notifies, to reduce lag. - Added an internal /unban command which takes multiple masks. You might want to remove the old usercommand (Tobias v. Koch). - Banlist window now sends multiple modes per line. - Fixed a memory leak in perl (Martin Persson). - Removed the tooltip for userlistinfo, it seemed to cause corruption on some gtk+ themes. - Made xchat not interpret %C,%B etc when percascii is OFF, .e.g: /set percascii OFF - Fixed ops/voice counts when networks allow you to voice/op people that are already voiced/oped (like EFnet). - Fixed building with --disable-glib. - IPv6 reverted to off by default, use --enable-ipv6 to enable. - Win32 fixes: dcc send/recv now works and fixed a bug in loading some .conf files by using the O_BINARY flag. - Changed the xchat icon - old one was a bit too dark. - Updated Greek translation (Fanis Dokianakis). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.7.7 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Re-added support for '+' channels when there's no 005 numeric. - Made the new $3 null terminated (works better that way). - Fixed Doubleclick-user when disabling userlist icons. - Fixed SSL build. - Win32 port (some code from Alex Badea's 1.5.11win32 port used). - More code cleanups, removed all extern prototypes from fe-gtk/. - Titlebar text now shows unknown channel modes too. - Made persist chans work with /reconnect aswell. - Avoid pastes of common unix directories being treated as irc commands (Chema Celorio). - Removed the Delete word forward/backward functions from KeyBindings. GTK handles these already, why were they ever there? - Made %h work for dialog windows' popup menu too. - Fixed treeview not setting channels red and blue. - The info above the userlist now gets a tooltip which gives you some extra info. - The nickgad (to the left of your nickname) now gets a text prefix char if userlist icons are disabled. - Timestamp format is now configurable in Setup->IRC Input/Output. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.7.6 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - xtext: tweaks to make url highlights less flickery. - Added some support for ircd numeric 005. MODES>=6, CHANTYPES, CHANMODES, WATCH and PREFIX are supported. This means dynamic support of different channel and user modes. The userlist icons only support *@%+ though (admin, op, half op, voice), will have to find a way to make these dynamic in the future. Also, made a new file modes.c and rewrote mode handling in general to support this, so what did I break? - Added option 'Userlist icons' (default ON). Lets you turn off userlist icons for ops, voice etc and get the plain text @+ (in Setup->Interface). Might be useful for ircd's that have weird and wacky access levels. - Added support for WATCH command for use in notify list. Numeric 005 must list WATCH for this to work. - Added an extra arg $3 for channel message printevents. This is the prefix char of the person talking, e.g. '@' for Ops. - Resolve irc-server name only if using a non-socks4 proxy. This allows you to connect even with a non-working dns. Also made the socks5 code more "correct" (Richard Fuchs). - Some code cleanups, got rid of most of the extern functions in c files and moved them to h files. - Perl has a valid context at startup again (broken in 1.7.4). - Fixed leak of awaymessages for "Show away once" feature. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.7.5 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Fixed some buggy catalogs for gettext 0.10.37 (OpenBSD users). Compiling with 0.10.35 will now break, there's always ./configure disable-nls. - Fixed python autoloading due to new serverlistcode (Richard Fuchs). - Made perl/python/plugins autoload when first irc window is open (rather than when serverlist opens), incase they need to print. - Changed serverlist opening behaviour. It now obays the 'No ServerList on startup' setting regardless of auto-connects. - Fixed buggy Quit menu item (1.7.4 bug). - DCC cleanups, including some endian fixes. - DCC windows don't go to front when new xfers appear (1.7.3 bug). - Rewrites to a few vital xtext functions. This seems to have speed up rendering with a FontSet and fix the -/+1 line bug. - Fixed Shelltab not opening sometimes (actually a 1.7.4 ipv6 bug). - Added ability to change font for Shelltabs only: /set font_shell ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.7.4 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - On startup, serverlist now opens without any other windows, looks neater, less confusing for newbies. If you disable serverlist at startup, a normal irc will open instead. - Made a few things more userfriendly, "DCC Send" -> "File Send". No need to refer to the protocol in the GUI! - Fixed a xtext bug rendering a background color of 1 incorrectly. - Unprintable characters used to cause problems to xtext (who would have thought gdk_char_width returns a different value to gdk_text_width?) - fixed. - xtext renders only once when switching tabs (used to render twice because gtk gives us 2 expose signals, why?). - When you change your nick it changes in the titlebar now too. Server name is now reported in dialog windows' titlebar. - Having Strip mIRC Color ON will now strip it from dcc chats too. - Added (really this time) perl functions add_user_list, sub_user_list, clear_user_list for manipulating the userlist of a channel (Lloyd Williams). - Various code cleanups, including a rewrite of the IPv6 code. Removed /6server and 'Use IPv6' check-box in the serverlist. It automatically handles IPv6/IPv4 addresses now. - Added a check-box in the serverlist edit window for "Use Proxy". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.7.3 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Added server hostname as $3 for quit print event (Bjorn Olievier). - Some fixes to the gnomepanel code. Panel no longer asks to restart applet on quit, removing the applet doesn't exit xchat (George). - Fixed fd leaks in /exec and python (Richard Fuchs). - user@host gets logged in query windows (Richard Fuchs). - Fixed the 'Marked Away' & 'Save Settings on exit' check menu items (when using --disable-gnome). - Workaround for ipv6 build failing on some glibcs (Tobias von Koch). - DCC won't try to resume if local file is bigger than remote offer. - Fixed xtext drawing/wordwrap and textmarking bugs. - Horizontal scrollbar appears in channellist window when needed. - Fixed color paste. Does this affect multibyte pasting? Please report (Darell Tan). - Fixed titlebar text for notices/snotices tabs. - The topic box gets a tooltip of the current topic. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.7.2 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Fixed some Python mem leaks and signal/event handlers can now return non-null integer to tell xchat to stop processing the event (like perl handling functions) (Richard Fuchs). - Got rid of the Linger timeout. This was a lame solution to stop the loss of QUIT messages when closing the socket too early. Now xchat just delays closing sockets by 5 seconds (even on quiting the app). No more 1 second delay when you close a tab or the whole app! - Fixed some memory leaks in the banlist window. - Added 'B' channel-mode button to access the banlist. - Added Turkish translation (Ozgur Dogan GUNES). - Updated Spanish translation (Antonio de la Torre). - Fixed the throttle setting (which was reversed! who did that?). - Added IRC::notify_list. (Matthew Gabeler-Lee). - Don't crash when bind fails for dcc send. - Don't send garbage to server when ban_type is invalid. - Rewrote a whole heap of bad code in maingui.c. When opening a new tab/window it always uses the same functions instead of having the code repeated a few times. This is pretty big so expect some things to break. This also means dcc/chanlist etc tabs get the < > buttons too. - /KICKBAN now deops users first (Tobias von Koch). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.7.1 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Turning off server tabs should work again (1.7.0 bug). - Some ipv6 fixes. - Added a few TextEvents that used to be hardcoded. - Updated jcode (Takuo Kitame). - Fixed possible crash in palette window (1.7.0 bug). - Rewrote the EscapeCode->mIRC color conversion for /exec. - Added option to explicitly set your dcc IP (Jim Seymour). - Added Opera and w3m to default URL Handlers. - New serverlist/window icon - just for a change. - Updated Korean translation (Kim SeungBaeck). - Added hook_timeout to the XChat.XChat() python class so you can XChat.XChat().hook_timeout(delay, handler). It is a one time function like the perl version (Donald Kjer). - /RECONNECT can now takes args like /SERVER, the difference being that it'll rejoin all your channels (Angel). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.7.0 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Updated German translation (Benedikt Roth). - Updated Spanish translation (Antonio de la Torre). - Updated Japanese translation (Takuo Kitame). - Added Norwegian translation (Kjartan Maraas). - Fix for bug in 1.4.x serverlist.conf loading. - Away status and reason is re-send to the server if you get disconnected (Daniel Rall). - Added option to have one tab for notices, configurable under Inferface/Window layout (Alex Badea). - Added another meter component that measures the server send queue from the throttle system (pref: throttlemeter), added UI support for showing the lag and throttle as either progress bars, info boxes, both, or none (Alex Badea). - Added a command to flush the send queue (/FLUSHQ) and one for forcing a new lag check (/LAGCHECK) (Alex Badea). - Added option 'persist_chans', when ON once a session is created for a channel, no other channel will be assigned to that session, regardless of any parts or kicks (Alex Badea). - Compile errors while loading a perl script are printed on the main window. Warnings issued by perl scripts are also printed on the main window. This allows script writers to use the perl command 'warn' to point out strange things. Perl errors no longer make xchat crash. The error message is written on the main window and the command execution is stopped (Frodo Baggins). - Added IPv6 support for making server connections. See ./configure --enable-ipv6 and /6SERVER command (\\bonxo\\@IRCnet). - Added Banlist window (Salvatore Insalaco). - You can now specify which dir ssl is in, e.g.: ./configure --enable-openssl=/usr/local/ssl (Richard Fuchs). - Added InterScan proxy traversal support (is this the correct name for this proxy? Looks like a httpd proxy to me) (Alex Riesen). - Added Japanese code conversion support, see ./configure --enable-japanese-conv (Takuo Kitame). - xtext: smooth (pixel-based) scrolling. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.6.4 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Fix for using a DCC port range (Lawrence Gold). - Fix for building on UnixWare 7 (Ronald Joe Record). - Added Chinese translations - zh_TW.Big5 and zh_CN (Kevin Peng and Anthony Fok Tung-Ling). - Added Finnish translation (Jarkko Ranta). - Revamped the default URLHandlers to add Galeon and Mozilla. - Clicking Accept on a DCC chat that you offered would loop - fixed. - Fixed percentage display for DCC receive (Matthew Gabeler-Lee). - Fixed bug in indent and timestamps (Dmitriy Zavin). - Fixed crash bug in xchat-text and DCC send being aborted remotely. - Made /lastlog more efficient for very large scrollback buffers. - Beep on private actions too (Richard Fuchs). - /MSG'ing a channel or nick will show up in the destination tab instead (Richard Fuchs). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.6.3 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Updated Swedish translation (Christian Rose). - Updated Spanish translation (Antonio de la Torre). - Right-click toggle menu items used to crash under gnome (bug in gnome-libs?) - work around. - xtext: Efficiency improvements: text mark, word and line select. - xtext: fixes for multibyte characters (UNO Takeshi). - Fixed bug in resizing a tinted-transparent window (deb bug #79674). - Some OS2 compilation fixes (pla). - Fixed PONG parsing (Stefano Barbato). - Fixed a leak of file descriptors. - Fixed /ALLSERV. - Fixed /BAN to replace ~ with * in username (Stefan Scholl). - Fixed /ME through DCC CHAT while not connected to server (#81031). - Work-around for UnrealIRCd's duplicate /NAMES bug. - Fixed DCC receiving filenames with spaces. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.6.2 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - xtext: Fixed the mark-clear bug (gnome bug #34584). - Updated German translation (Tamer Fahmy). - Commas are replaced with %2c in URLs, as to not confuse poor old Netscape (deb bug #70905). - Bluestring to 300 chars (deb bug #79138). - Added option /SET percascii, which can disable/enable translation of %XXX into an ascii value while typing (deb bug #76122). - New hotkey hook: key_action_put_history. Only inserts line into history, but doesn't send it to the server (DaP). - Lots of SSL updates: * Make accept_invalid_cert optional on /sslserver (DaP). * Print verbose information of SSL session on connect (DaP). * Clean up code at X509_V_ERR_DEPTH_ZERO_SELF_SIGNED_CERT checking (DaP). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.6.1 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - xtext: Fixed lockup with certain sized fonts. - xtext: Made some changes to improve efficiency when using really large scrollback buffers (only noticable when doublebuffer off). - Fixed a bug in /help crashing on longer than 10 char UserCommands. - Fixed autoreconnect while using a proxy server. - Never-give-up ReConnect does just that (even more so than before :) - Fixed the channelmode buttons mouse-over problem. - Fixed percentage display for large files in dcc recv/send gui. - StartTime in dcc chat gui no longer Jan 1 1970. - Fixed DCC send behind IP-Nat (Bernhard Valenti) . - Added Lithuanian translation (Gediminas Paulauskas). - The < > buttons arn't shown for non-tab windows (Aaron Lehmann). - Fixed the (-1,-1) transparency problem for non-tab windows. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.6.0 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - xtext: More efficient handling of expose events, text marking and url highlighting when double buffer is OFF. - xtext: Fixed a very rare bug that could cause BadGC errors or the separator bar not to be drawn. - Fixed crash in right-clicking URLs in the URL Grabber window. - If Check-For-Replace is in the keybindings for Return, it'll actually work again. - USER login command now sends your nodename instead of 'localhost' to please some IRCNet servers. - Updated Swedish translation (Christian Rose). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.5.11 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Updated Slovak translation (Stano Visnovsky). - Updated Swedish translation (Christian Rose). - Updated Greek translation (Fanis Dokianakis). - Updated Spanish translation (Antonio de la Torre). - If Never-Give-Up Reconnect is ON, it won't give up on DNS failer. - '/me is back' is sent again when Announce Away Messages is ON. - If channelmode buttons were OFF and you joined a channel with a userlimit xchat would crash - fixed. - /sslserver's password arg. is now optional (Daniel Richards). - SSL accepts self signed certs (Daniel Richards). - Fixed the unnecessary window resizes when opening a new tab. - Changed the tinting code a bit (thanks gnapster :). - Transparent shell tabs update too when they are moved. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.5.10 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Added "Enable double buffer" toggle in Setup->Channel windows. - Double buffer is now OFF by default (seems to use less CPU). - Timestamps didn't turn ON while indent was OFF - fixed. - Updated Swedish translation (Christian Rose). - Added some extra text events: Channel Msg hilight, Channel Action hilight (near top of the list). No more cardcoded color codes! Also hilighting in actions works, and you can make the whole message hilighted if you change the event text. - Initial window size is actually set to your settings (this will never be perfect I guess, sometimes to the window still resizes itself without warning). - Hidemenubar setting didn't work properly for non-tabs and when delinking windows - fixed. - Notices appear in front tab even when server tabs are enabled. - Changed Away behaviour again. No more /back, /away with no args brings you back. The menu-item's state is what the server tells it, it even changes when you switch tabs to another server. Xchat assumes you are not away when you first connect. irc::get_info(5) returns the away state. One day the other UserModes menu items will show correct states. Is everyone happy now? - Translation tables didn't work for outgoing text - fixed. - Cleaned up a few xchat.conf names, a few settings may not load up from 1.5.9 - just set them again. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.5.9 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Updated Spanish translation (Antonio de la Torre). - Added Hebrew translation (Dan Fruehauf). - Fixed crash bug when partreason was not set. - Dialog tabs obay the hidetopicbar setting now too (the one in the right-click menu). - Cleaned up the settings gui: the whole window is more compact now, some toggles in two columns, numbers use a spin-button, entry boxes are larger and option-menus are more consistant. - The "o=xx v=xx t=xx" display is finally changed. - Changed most of xtext.c to use gdk instead of Xlib. - Added configure option: --disable-xlib disable use of xlib (for non X11 systems) This might help compile xchat on other GTK supported systems like BeOS and Win32 (havn't tried it though). - Neater /set list. - You can now set a nickname per server (see serverlist edit window). - Changed the behaviour of /away and added /back (James Crawford). - Away reason can now be a text file of random reasons too. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.5.7 -> 1.5.8 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Updated Spanish translation (Antonio de la Torre). - Updated Swedish translation (Christian Rose). - Updated Greek translation (Dokianakis Fanis). - Updated German translation (Tamer Fahmy). - Added Catalan translation (Pablo Saratxaga). - Added option "Always timestamp logs" which timestamps log files even if on-screen timestamps are off (Mike Guidero). - Added entry "Part Reason: ". Also part and quit reasons can be a filename of random reasons (filename relative to ~/.xchat/). - Took out /unban as a internal command, add it as a usercommand /quote MODE %c -b &2 instead. - Added a text event for banlist. Try /banlist and it'll be a bit more readable now. - Changed output throttle system (undernet style) (Alex Badea). - Added 1 second linger socket option to stop QUIT msgs from being lost (they still get lost sometimes, why?). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.5.6 -> 1.5.7 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Fixed transparency-leak problems in 1.5.6 - New code to create shaded transparency, taken from latest zvt. (is it better?) - URL handlers are now executed without a shell. (http://www.securityfocus.com/vdb/bottom.html?vid=1601) - Fixed a bug in xchat.conf and serverlist.conf loading. - When spliting msgs (longer than the IRC 512 limit), it used to loose some chars - fixed. - Added feature to choose DCC port range (Lars Sundqvist). - Fixed perl-stack overflow probs in irc::userlist() and others. Added perl functions user_list_short() and perl_script_list() (Mike Guidero). - MHz is now detected on FreeBSD 4.x/5.x (Jonathan Perkin). - It's now possible to "/dcc close chat nick" within a DCC perl input handler without crashing xchat. (Geoffrey Higginson). - Fixed a problem with the usermenu not updating sometimes. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.5.5 -> 1.5.6 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Added option pingtimeout, which pings the server instead. /set pingtimeout 90 is default (small values will malfunction). You also need the lagometer enabled for this to work. - No longer using fnmatch() for ignore etc (because the way it handles [ and ]). Using function from ircu2.10.08. - Some fixes to code & configure.in to make it compile using Solaris C (Albert Chin). - New Spanish translation (Antonio de la Torre). - New Russian translation (Alex Samorukov). - New Hungarian translation (Horvath Szabolcs). - Added Portuguese translation (Vitor Antunes). - Added Slovak translation (Martin Pekar). - Added /allserv and /allchan . They send a command to all currently connected servers and joined channels. Also added usercommands /ame and /amsg which make use of this. - Added sock5 traversal, see Setup->Proxy Server (Alex Badea). (The numbers for proxy_type are now 0=disabled, 1=wingate, 2=socks4, 3=socks5). - A few more buffer overflow checks (nick & channel length). - Mapped mIRC color 99 to "no background" (mIRC lame!). - Some efficiency tweaks to xtext. - Added SSL support (see --enable-openssl and /help server) (DaP). This seems to be highly experimental, as I don't know of any IRC servers that can do SSL yet. - Changed history behaviour, more like GNU (DaP). i.e. Doesn't wrap and the bottom line is blank. - Added option "InputBox Always In Focus" (DaP). - Added option "Show Nickgad" (DaP). - Added option "Show invites in the active Window" (DaP). - Added option "Send /Whois" in notifies section, which sends a /whois when someone comes online (DaP). - Added an event for numeric 341, you inivited someone (DaP). - Title bar text changed/improved a bit (DaP). - Added actions for EditKeyBindings: MoveFrontTabLeft and MoveFrontTabRight, like the <> buttons, but for keyboard (DaP). - Implemented timeout events in the text frontend (Alex Badea and fixed by me :). - Dcc Recv/Send tabs won't resize the window when open. - Added configure option --disable-glib. - Transparent windows update when background changes (Aaron Lehmann). - serverlist.conf is slightly changed! You WILL be able to load your old 1.5.5 or 1.4.x server list, but older versions WON'T load lists from 1.5.6, so backup your serverlist.conf if you need to. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.5.4 -> 1.5.5 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Fix for show/hide menu under gnome. - Added -a and --noauto arg (don't auto connect to any servers). - Added internal /list command, which sends the correct args according to ircd type (it detects undernet and dalnet to send >0,<10000). Remove any old /list usercommands you might have. - /op /deop ... etc send up to six modes per line if using undernet. - As discussed in the mailinglist, changed DCC resume to send and expect to receive ACKs as an absolute, rather than an offset from the resume point. It *should* work with mIRC now, but break with old versions of xchat and probably BitchX. - Added option "Limited Tab Highlighting" (Francis Litterio). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.5.3 -> 1.5.4 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Lack of gdk_pixbuf is detected correctly now (configure script). - textmarking is no longer a timeout event, is this better or worse? - Added Turkish translation (Fatih Demir). - Added Russian translation (Valek Filippov). - Added Ukrainian translation (Yuri Syrota). - Added configure option --disable-zvt. Also, zvt shell tab can be compiled in even without gnome (and is by default, if gnome-config can be found to provide the LDFLAGS). - Added "Delete Word Forward" function in Edit Key Bindings. Bind this to Alt-d for that emacs feel (Francis Litterio). - Ping times show one extra decimal place. - You can now hide the menubar too, click left mouse in the text area to get a popup version of the menu (middle mouse in dialogs). - Added the proxy settings to the GUI, Setup->IRC->Proxy Server. - Added a keyword TOGGLE for usermenu. Delete your old usermenu.conf to see the new default one. - Configure script now cleans up the CFLAGS & LDFLAGS (removes duplicate words), let's hope this doesn't break on some boxses. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.5.2 -> 1.5.3 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Fixed a rare overflow bug in auto_insert(). - Pressing OK in the settings window on slow machines (p233?) was pretty slow, maybe it's faster now. - Corrected some inputgad behaviour (Aaron Lehmann). - Fix for 64bit machines (alpha) in xtext (word clicks). - Updated German translation (Benedikt Roth). - Updated Danish translation (Birger Langkjer). - If you disconnect (/discon, /quit...) a server during the reconnect delay, it is actually removed now. - Added option "Give the userlist style" (DaP). - Translation tables support can be turned off (--disable-trans), for you minimalist freaks. - Added Hebrew support, compile time: --enable-hebrew, run time: /set hebrew 0/1 (Dan Aloni). - Added new setting, "nick completion character" (Francis Litterio). - Added new setting, "Old-style Nickname Completion", which makes it act much like 1.4.x (Francis Litterio). - Added "Delete Word" function to EditKeyBindings (Francis Litterio). - Now using gdk-pixbuf for decoding pictures and tinted transparency. (Tints don't seem to work 100% yet). (Andreas Persenius). - Added halfop support (mode +h). This includes support in the userlist, /hop, /dehop, /mdehop and new textevents (Elizandro G. Roos). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.5.1 -> 1.5.2 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - --disable-gnome should work again. - Fixed a bug in right-click nick menu. - Should compile with glibc 2.1.3 (no more 'struct user' errors). - Added Romanian translation (Dan Damian). - CTCP flood protection won't kick in for ACTIONs. - Removed the theme code. - Made pixmaps.c, all code to decode/free/etc pixmaps is in here. - WM_HINTS icon is set for the app. - Removed the "-c" flag (it's automatic now). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.5.0 -> 1.5.1 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Shell tabs are now delinkable. - Added a "show/hide topic bar" button (bottom right), I didn't know where else to put this. - Hidding the userlist is saved and any new tabs/windows open will have the userlist hidden. - You can now turn off/on perl warnings with /set perlwarnings 0/1. - Tab-key nick completion even more like GNU readline (Gerard Daubar). - Rewrote the function that handles %variables in userlist buttons, user commands and ctcp replies (all use the same function now), please report any bugs (especially if someone can overflow you from remote ;) - as a consequence, you can use % and & (word/word_eol) for ctcp replies now. Also added %m for machine info. - Nickname-popup-menu, URLmenu and Usermenu all use the same code now (it means you can make submenus in all 3). - Double eval back in perl.c - Dialogs/querys also have a toolbox button (just for consistancy). - Added lagometer (/set lagometer 0 to turn it off), this isn't quiet finished yet (and doesn't work on IRCNet because it refuses to reply to pings correctly). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.4.2 -> 1.5.0 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Some changes & cleanups to the parser code (inbound/outbound). - Ran all source through indent, using: indent -bli0 -bls -ce -ts3 -i3 (please use this in your patches, I used GNU indent 2.2.4). - If you send a message (channel or query window) longer than 512 bytes (maximum allowed by the ircd) it will be split into two smaller messages instead of being truncated. - Some gui touchups and changes. - You can now enable/disable the output throttle with /set throttle. - Added /timer. - Overhauled the ChannelList window (Joshua Gough). - Added proxy traversal support for socks and wingate, no gui yet so use /set proxy_host, proxy_port, proxy_type (1=socks, 2=wingate). - Added /userlist. - Opaque-window-move used to be slow on some windowmanagers even with transparency turned off - fixed. - Tab-key completion is more like GNU readline (Wes Peters). - Now possible to use modules in perl scripts (Andreas Scherbaum). - irc::get_info(4) returns the current xchat dir (Mike Guidero). - Added irc::get_prefs() (returns a /set variable) (Leo Cacciari). - /set is now possible. - Added Show-Userhost-in-Userlist option (Nicolas Dimitrijevic). - Build tree cleaned up so 'make dist' can work. - Added flood protection from CTCP and mass-dialogs-opening (Bruj0) rdiazleven@ubp.edu.ar. (see variables *_limit). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.4.1 -> 1.4.2 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Compilation fixes for IRIX (David Kaelbling). - Compilation fixes for AIX (Rodrigo Barbosa). - Compilation fixes for OpenBSD. - Should now compile with certain beta/alpha versions of Perl. - "Scrollbar snapping to top" bug fixed. - Corrected some text marking behaviour. - Made use of fnmatch(), if available (for chanlist, ignore etc). - Configure script is now generated with a sane version of autoconf. - Alt-minus and Alt-plus now wrap around (AGL). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.4.0 -> 1.4.1 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Fixed a bug that could make new text not appear while marking text. - xtext: Further improved performance when double buffering is turned off (marking text & URL hilights are almost flicker free). - xtext: Double buffer is now freed at each render operation, this should reduce memory usage if you have many tabs open. - If you closed a server while it was in the reconnect-delay, xchat would crash - fixed. - No more zombies when doing /discon while connection in progress. - Added "/clear all" command (Paul de Regt). - Hilights only work on full word matches now (Brendan O'Dea). - Some Solaris compilation fixes (David Morgan). - Danish translation updated (Birger Langkjer). - Italian translation updated (Stefano Fava). - Greek translation added (Fanis Dokianakis). - Dutch translation upated (Arjan Scherpenisse). - Removed some very old translations: fr_CA, no, pl, ru and sv. (If someone wants to update these, you're welcome to). - Channel mode "+h nick" (half Op) is now reported correctly (still not supported in the userlist though). - Having indent nicks OFF in channel windows and ON in dialog windows didn't work - fixed. - Sometimes ignores wouldn't save - fixed. http://www.xchat.org
