Revision history: v1.0 04-13-94 FJP Initial release appears to work at my end. FTick support not yet included, but intended for a future release. This is also not a compiled version. That will have to wait until some more money rolls by for the purposes of buying Rexx Plus. (Anyone who'd like to use a copy of Rexx Plus Compiler in lieu of a postcard is certainly allowed to do so!) v1.1 04-17-94 FJP Already found a bug! The level of a HOST was not being used to limit attaches/etc., only queries. Also added a new feature: privelege bits. Combined with levels, this lets you group your echos any way you like, rather than only linearly. v1.2 05-26-94 FJP The previous version's release archive had a file that was about one byte wrong, but it was wrong enough that the BITS keyword didn't work. What's worse, a bug (or at very least, a very bizarre wart) in ARexx prevented even the real version from working quite right. Both are now fixed. Many thanks due to Peter Deane, who is now both the first and only registered user and the only beta tester of this program. v1.2a 05-29-94 FJP Added linking of messages to replies, per a suggestion by Peter Deane. This version is not being released generally, because I want to wait until I've done at least one of the two other things on my to-do list before I call it a whole new release number. v1.3 06-26-94 FJP (Internal version, never released) Updated a few files in the archive to ensure all the rest works. Implemented COUNT command to make startup quicker for people with big host files. Implemented new keyword formats for compatability with the GCF; CrystalFix now has its own section in GCF files. Fixed problem with doubled MAIN lines. Made CrystalFix less dependent on Mail: assign or Fido.cfg filename. Added CrystalFix LOGFILE command to maintain separate logs; also, CrystalFix no longer confused by LOGFILE commands in other sections like TrapSched. Changed the grouping method to eliminate the use of bitmasks; not only does this free me from fighting the never-ending sequence of bitand() bugs, but it also makes it a LOT easier to explain. Added the ability to rescan by creating a temporary config, which avoids dupes being sent to all points in an area. Now supports the continuation character \ on the end of lines, though it will not keep them when it rewrites the file. v2.0 07-01-94 FJP FTick support; tick areas treated just like message areas, except of course they can't be rescanned and there are no pass- through areas or request forwarding. Added aliases RAID and ALLFIX to be detected by CrystalFix. Added HELPFILE command thus removing the last dependency on the Mail: assign. Eliminated the reliance on 4D addresses. Added ADDAREACMD command. Added support for [+] instead of + for people who are very dim. Added the TAGLENGTH and PATHLENGTH commands. Added support for non-4D message headers pretending to be 4D message headers in FidoSetInfo and FidoGetInfo. A compiled C version available to registered users in a separate archive. Note: to convert from version 1.0-1.2a, you'll need to do some work in your Fido.cfg file again. See Upgrade.readme for more info.
