1.4 (2003/12/27)
* Major cleanups - remove most uses of strcpy() and strcat(), except
in virus.c, replace with snprintf.
* Add support for mailing users while they are playing.
[nh343-simple_mail.diff is needed]
* Rip out some crazy getopt code that was causing virus to go crazy
after a "q!" Since dgamelaunch only passes up to argv[1] to virus
*ever*, just make it use argv[1] and panic if argc < 2, which should
never happen anyway.
* Add a confirmation to the change password screen so people like me
don't change their passwords by accident all the time.
* Remove many unused variables and make some functions void because
they don't return anything.
* Add some function prototypes in dgamelaunch.c to quell warnings.
* Make some vars unsigned to quell warnings.
* 'capital letter. experimental' section made irrelevant by use of
tolower(3) around getch()
* Change big conditional block to use a switch.
* Replace a global with a static variable within the function.
* Replace the giant size 64000 static buffers with dynamically
allocated structs
* Checking for colons in user fields is made simpler using strstr(3)
* Allow page up and page down on the watch games menu
* Merge BSD compatibility patches
* All licenses in source code mentioned in COPYING
* Use fcntl for all file locking; flock(3) is not portable
* Fix some troublesome uses of strncpy() with strlcpy
* ditto for strncat->strlcat
* Make sure only one session can be played at once at all and
SIGHUP the rest, ensuring the death of "Destroy old game? [yn]"
* Replace two colossal conditionals with calls to isalnum(3).
* Shift from static #defines to a configuration file system
powered by lex/yacc.
1.3.10 (2003/10/22)
* Added a mode flag to the open call for inprogress lock files.
(jilles)
1.3.9 (2003/09/06)
* Fixed the bug where editing options file wouldn't work on same
session as registration.
* Changed ttyplay timeout to 20 minutes with a better error msg.
* Made a zero length response on registration just dump you
back to the main menu.
1.3.7 (2003/09/06)
* Fixed the infamous hlen bug! I was rewinding to the beginning
of payload, not header.
1.3.5 (2003/09/05)
* Returned SIGWINCH to defaults after exiting virus. This was
probably the screen resize crash bug. (maybe?)
1.3.1 (2003/08/30)
* First shot at an engine to strip out graphics sets. It is a lot
harder than I would have thought, but doable at a 99% or so
success rate, I think, which should at least allow people to
view games in other graphics sets somewhat.
1.2.22 (2003/08/29)
* Expanded README
* Hope to have caught the error in a partial read of the error.
1.2.21 (2003/08/28)
* Added a README since I noticed people were downloading this.
1.2.20 (2003/08/24)
* Added additional check on payload length. Just a sanity thing.
1.2.19 (2003/08/24)
* Fixed (hopefully) that nasty bug that occurs when a partial read
after header read returned, and caused the next header read to
basically read random data (and thus a random length).
1.2.18 (2003/08/14)
* After determining select() on files sucks ass, I've just reduced
the polling interval on the ttyplay engine to 100ms, and given
up on an otherwise proper select call. Humans shouldn't notice
the latency, but I always will... grrr...
1.2.17 (2003/08/14)
* Put in the 50ms delay from header read until payload read during
preads in order to hopefully hack/wait around the race condition
99% of the time.
* Added a sleep(10) after receiving SIGHUP until sending one
to the child process in the mild hopes that this gets around
whatever condition is causing it not to receive and handle
the SIGHUP now.
1.2.16 (2003/08/14)
* All code is now run through indent(1) for cleanliness
* Game playback in progress now finds the last term reset and plays
forward from the last header before that reset.
* Some effort has been made to trap SIGHUP better and pass that
along to child processes as well. This still needs work for
nethack itself, but dgamelaunch is clean so far.
1.2.6 (2003/08/08)
* Viewing games in progress now works pretty well.
1.2.0beta2 (2003/08/07)
* Added initial ttyrec integration, although everything is very
broken at this point. Once I learn more about tty libraries than
I ever want to know, maybe everything will work again.
1.1.6 (2003/08/06)
* The last few revs included minor bugfixes found in production use,
changed some text in the program, and 1.1.6 is some minor packaging
changes for the purposes of a release to the public of the source
code.
1.1.1 (2003/08/02)
* Introduced virus (vi editor) code, and provided a new option to edit
personal nethack rc files.
1.0.0 (2003/08/01)
* Since 0.2.3 has been in production for over a year and a half, it
is hereby dubbed 1.0.0.
0.2.2 (2001/11/11)
* added change password feature. also is the way to get password crypt()ed
0.2.1 (2001/11/11)
* moved more of the crucial config into defines
* removed the echo of password on login
0.2.0 (2001/11/11)
* added crypt() support for the password file. Now the program first
checks for the crypt() password, then the plaintext one for legacy
and for ease of admins changing passwords.
