SEE MY WEB PAGE at http://www.teamos2.org/software/iadventure/ for
newest info !!

===================================================================
                          N O T I C E
===================================================================
This IS a shareware package, and does require a registration fee if
you choose to continue using it after 30 days.  The registration
fee for this product is currently $30 US. When Internet Adventurer
is out of beta, this price will grow for new registrations, so
register now while it's cheap !.

Note that after v2.99 I might select that your registrations have
expired, and you need to re-register in order to upgrade to versions
higher than 2.99.

See the file REGISTER.TXT for more information about how to register


===================================================================
                      L E G A L   S T U F F
===================================================================
As usual with shareware, I'm not responsible for any damages you
may suffer by using Internet Adventurer in any form or way. If you
are going to jail because of unpaid huge phone-bills, then it's not
and never will be my problem. Any damages/faults/whatever arising
from the use of Internet Adventurer is entirely your own problem.
If your harddisk vanish after installing, or your wife leaves you
it's your own problem - got it ?


===================================================================
                     R E Q U I R E M E N T S
===================================================================
Internet Adventurer requires OS/2 Warp, with min 8Mb Memory - it
probably will run on 4Mb, but I wouldn't to it :) It seems to work fine
under Warp 4 (Merlin)

Also, WebExplorer from IBM is required. At least BETA web0814 is
required, you can get the newest from ftp.ibm.net /pub/WebExplorer
You also need to have internet software, at least TCP/IP v3.0 (or what
your WebExplorer needs) is required.

Also, I recommend installing fixpack 17, and the updated PMMERGE.DLL.
Doing so, really fixes alot of traps especially in PMCTLS and PMMERGE.

I haven't tried fixpack 22 yet - I've heard conflicting stories about it
some say that after installing it, they couldn't open the settings dialog,
and some say that it has improved pretty much everything. I've also heard
of problems with the InetAdv settings-notebook - please let me know if you
have any problems there.

===================================================================
                  A C K N O W L E D G E M E N T S
===================================================================
I would like to thank all the people in #os/2 and #os2prog who have
helped me with this, especially the ones who have given me sample
code, and tolerated my bugs :)

Internet:      krasmus@post3.tele.dk - but if at all possible, _please_ use
               my mailing-list for all questions/suggestions about InetAdv !!
           
IRC:           I can usually be found hanging around in #os/2 or #os2prog
               you might even catch me in #inetadv :)
               My nickname is usually Starlord_, but look for Kim Rasmussen
               in my real-name.

Mailinglist:   Cliff Wood has setup a mailing list for me, to join it send a
               mail to <majordomo@infinity.beve.blacksburg.va.us> This mail
               MUST have the first line in the BODY of the message set to
               "subscribe inetadv-l" - without the quotes.

Support:       I'll try to help as much as I can, go to #inetadv on IRC, or
               use the mailing list. If you can't reach me in other ways,
               send an email to krasmus@post3.tele.dk


------------------------
2. Current Features List
------------------------

 - Consistent userinterface - all the sections of Internet Adventurer share
   the same toolbars, and the same look and feel - you can even drag toolbar
   items from eg. the WWW window to an IRC window.

 - IRC (rfc #1459 compliant)

 - CTCP (Client to Client Protocol) commands supported

 - DCC CHAT fully supported (private chat - remember to set your IP address)

 - DCC Multiple concurrent filetransfers are fully supported, both ways

 - Multiple Threads, one per IRC channel

 - Fully multithreaded 32-bit code - no 16-bit code at all

 - No class libraries, uses PM functions directly, for maximum speed

 - Multiple Windows - one window for each channel or for private messages

 - Multiple colors, get a complete overview in seconds, configure strings
   that will be shown with different colors.

 - Configureable fonts and colors

 - WWW support, using WebExplorer's API, to ensure that the newest available
   browser technology is supported. You should even be able to use Internet
   Adventurer with a newer version of WebExplorer (no guaranties though...)
   It's even faster that WebExplorer !

 - Proxy and Socks support for WWW, gopher and FTP

 - You never need to cancel loading of an URL, to begin loading another, you
   just click on the link you want, even if the page you're currently loading
   isn't complete yet.

 - REXX Scripts support, compatible with the GammaTech IRC-Client v2.00.

 - Nickname list in channel-windows

 - User Configureable toolbars, click on the toolbar with your right mouse
   button, and add/edit/delete buttons. You can also drag buttons to other
   windows, if you press ctrl while dragging, they get copied.

 - DLL PlugIn's - support for extending Internet Adventurer with customized
   tools.

 - Fully configureable quicklist with support for multilevel groups, where
   you can put your URL's. One group for eg. "Internet Search Engines", one
   for "OS/2", one for "Fun stuff" etc....

 - Smart URL resolving by 'nickname', enter eg. 'Yahoo' - and that will take
   you to http://www.yahoo.com, or enter 'inetadv' - which will take you to
   http://home3.inet.tele.dk/krasmus/

 - Intelligent URL handling and interfacing, from a www document, select a link
   called 'irc:/server irc.dd.chalmers.se' and InetAdv will open up an IRC
   window, and connect to the specified server.

 - Viewing HTML source, saving to disk, displaying from disk.

 - Registration via registration keys - easy upgrading of registered versions.

 - URL Parsing REXX scripts - You can completely customize the URL handling.

 - Quicklist database accessible from REXX scripts

 - Importing of WebExplorer quicklist

 - Quicklist supports Drag & Drop
 
 - URL objects can be dragged into the quicklist

 - IDENTD support for those IRC servers that require it.

 - Newsreader with both online and offline newsreading support

 - Support for multiple simultaneous newsservers (requires registration)

 - Support for UU-Decoding both news and mail messages

 - Mail, support for retrieving via POP3 and sending via SMTP

 - Multiple mail accounts (requires registration)

 - Selectable loading of plugins - eg. if news/mail is never used, it can
   be left out, and thus never uses any memory.

 - Automatic recovery of any eventual damaged quicklist/news databases

 - Threaded viewing of News and Mail - True news threading (by references)

 - Lot's of other features - too many to mention here


-------------------------
3. Known Bugs/Workarounds
-------------------------

 - 'Time' is not updated in filetransfers, but always set to 00:00:00


-------------------------------
4. Missing Features / ToDo List
-------------------------------

 - Full MIME support will be in the next version

 - Global address-book, where you will be able to put name, URL, email
   telnet, notes etc. into the book, and thus use a common entry for both
   email, telnet etc.

 - Filters for news and mail - both static and REXX filters

 - Custom folders for news and mail

 - Password protected folders for news/mail groups

 - Example REXX scripts - I'm currently working with the authors of IRC/2 and
   GTIRC to create a standard for REXX scripts that we can all agree on, so
   when we are ready, there should be lots of sample scripts.

 - Presentation mode in WWW - for now, you can disable the toolbars to
   make the window overhead as small as possible.

 - I'll document the PlugIn DLL API real soon, I have already gotten some
   indications of people wanting to write either new plug-ins, or write
   scripts in C - mail me if you have anything specific you want, and I will
   try to rush it even more.

 - I'll clean DCC up a bit, I don't like the way it works now - I'll add
   tons of options for blocksize etc. and I'll make one DCC window that shows
   the status of all the current DCC filetransfers instead of the tons of
   windows you see now.

 - WAV file support, I'll add lots of options, for playing different WAV files
   depending on what is going on. I'll also add more options for eg. switching
   the WWW window to the foreground after an URL has completed loading.

 - Connections to multiple IRC servers simultaneously

 - DCC firewall support is almost ready

 - Flood protection to come...

 - Gopher and FTP is currently only supported via the WebExplorer API
   I probably won't touch gopher, but you'l get a beefed up FTP, with support
   for upload/download etc.

 - Telnet isn't supported yet

 - If you have any suggestions for other features, please email me at
   krasmus@post3.tele.dk and tell me what you want.

 - I have a _huge_ todolist, and tons of small yellow pieces of paper glued
   to my monitor - so don't dispair if you can not see your suggestions here.

-------------------------
5. Command-line arguments
-------------------------

Syntax is: INETADV.EXE [/I:<inifile>] [/P:<pluginfile>] [URL]

Example: INETADV.EXE /I:inetadv.ini http://home3.inet.tele.dk/krasmus/
Example: INETADV.EXE http://home3.inet.tele.dk/krasmus/
Example: INETADV.EXE irc:/default /P:www_only.cfg

URL is an optional URL to retrive immediately after starting Internet Adventurer.

/I:<inifile> where <inifile> is the name of the ini-file to use for storing the
settings. If this option is not specified, OS2.INI is used. The .cmd file copyini.cmd
can be used to copy settings to/from OS2.INI - uninst.cmd must be used for uninstalling
and deleting settings from OS2.INI

/P:<pluginfile> where <pluginfile> is the name of a plain text file, where each
line in the file contains the name of the DLL to load - eg. 

---- Cut here ----
IA_WWW
IA_IRC
IA_NWSML
---- Cut here ----

Note that only the firstname of the DLL should be present - not the extension !

If you never use IRC, you can just delete it from the file, and same memory by not
loading the IRC DLL. Note that if you do not load it, and have any toolbar buttons
that have some kind of IRC action, InetAdv will complain about the buttons and you
must then change or delete them.

The default pluginfile is called "iaplugins.cfg" - if this file is found in the
current directory when InetAdv starts up, it will use it. If no file is found, all
the DLL's will be loaded.


-------------------------
6. Supported IRC Commands
-------------------------

In a channel window, if you just write a string, it's sent to that channel
if you put a '/' in front, it's treated as a command.
eg. to get statistics (uptime) from you server, type '/STATS U'

All RFC 1459 commands are supported, just type '/' in front, and whatever
you type will be sent to the IRC server directly (with exceptions)

The exceptions are:

/JOIN <channelname>
/CHANNEL <channelname>
   Join a new channel, eg. "/JOIN #os/2" joins the #os/2 channel.

/CTCP <nickname> <command>
   This commands send's a CTCP request <command> to <nickname>
   eg. /CTCP Starlord_ VERSION to get the version of Starlord_'s client.

/DCC CHAT <nickname>
   Ask <nickname> to open a private chat conversation with you. This causes
   Internet Adventurer to open a socket, waiting for a call from the other
   client. Data on this session are NOT sent through the IRC server, and you
   are therefore sure that no IRC-Operators can listen in.

/DCC SEND <nickname> <filename>
   This command is used if you want to send a file to <nickname>.
   This causes Internet Adventurer to open a socket, and wait for a call from
   <nickname>'s client. If <nickname> accepts, he will then connect's to you
   for receiving the file from you.

/ME <text>
/ACT <text>
/ACTION <text>
   Use this command to tell that you're performing an action, if your nickname
   is Starlord_, and you type "/me thinka Internet Adventurer is great", it
   will be displayed to the other people on the channel as:
   "* Starlord_ agrees that Internet Adventurer is great"

/MSG <nickname> <text>
   Uses this command to send a private message to <nickname>, this message
   will not be sent to the channel you're in, but only to the <nickname> you
   specify. If you wan't to be sure that no one can intercept your message,
   you might consider using /DCC <nickname> CHAT instead, to get a true
   private connection.

/LEAVE
   This command causes the window for the current channel to be closed, and
   it leaves the channel - it's the same thing as closing the window by
   double-clicking on it's icon.
   If this command is issued in a DCC Chat window, the chat connection is
   disconnected, and the window is closed.

/SIGNOFF
   If issued in a channel-window, this command causes the connection to the
   server to be closed. The windows will still remain on the screen.
   If issued in a DCC chat window, the DCC connection is closed.

/BEGONE
   This command removes all the windows, and disconnects.

/VERSION <nickname>
/VER <nickname>
   These commands do the same as /CTCP <nickname> VERSION - it ask's
   <nickname> for his version.

/USERINFO <nickname>
   This command does the same as /CTCP <nickname> USERINFO - it ask's
   <nickname> for his userinfo.

/FINGER <nickname>
   This command does the same as /CTCP <nickname> FINGER - it ask's
   <nickname> for his finger info.

/PING <nickname>
   This command does the same as /CTCP <nickname> PING - it ask's <nickname>
   to return the ping response, so the delay between the two clients can be
   measured.

/EXECUTE <command>
   This executes the given command, eg. to put a directory listing into a
   file, you can use "/exec dir >\file.txt".

/SERVER <hostname:[port]>
   This command closes the connection to the current server, and connects to
   the new specified server.

/MODE <channel/nicname/*> [mode parameters]
   This command changes the mode of either a channel, or a nick. If * is
   entered instead of channel-name, the current channel is used.
   If no parameters are given, the mode is queried instead of set.

/TOPIC <channel/*> This is a topic
   This command changes the topic of a channel. If * is entered instead of
   channel-name, the current channel is used. If the topic itself is excluded,
   then the current topic is displayed.

/CLEAR
/CLE
   These commands clear/erase the contents of the current window.

/QUERY <nickname>
/PRIVATE <nickname>
   These commands open a private window, where all messages you type are sent
   to the nickname as private messages.

/SCR <script name> [script parameters]
   This command executes a REXX script and passes the script parameters
   (if any) directly to the script. The other parameters passed to the script
   are the same as the one passed to the incoming/outgoing scripts.

/RUN <filename>
   This command executes each line in the file, just as if each line was a
   command, entered on the command-line. This command can be used to "type"
   a file to the channel.

/QUIT <quit reason>
   This quits - you can optionally specify a quit reason, eg.
   "time for dinner", or "gotta install new version of InetAdv" :)

/LOG ON <filename> | OFF | DELETE
   /LOG ON <filename> enables logging, and writes all lines in the window
   you specified to the file you specified. /LOG OFF disables logging again
   /LOG DELETE deletes the current logfile. - when log is started, logging
   is always appended to the logfile.

/IRCTRACE ON <filename> | OFF | DELETE
   /IRCTRACE ON <filename> enables irc tracing, and writes all incoming and
   outgoing lines to the file you specified. These lines are exactly as they
   are received from / set to the IRC server. /IRCTRACE OFF disables tracing
   again /IRCTRACE DELETE deletes the current trace-file. - when trace is
   started, new trace info is always appended to the trace-file.

//<string>
   This one sends the <string> unmodified to the server. This might be
   usefull for some people.


---------------
7. REXX Scripts
---------------

There are currently 2 kinds of REXX scripts: URL parsing, and IRC scripts.

--- URL Parsing scripts ---
You can specify one script in the General settings in the Settings Dialog.
This script will then be called with the URL as a parameter everytime an URL
needs to be resolved. This can happen when eg. selecting a link in the WWW
Window, or pressing a toolbar button that's linked to an URL.

The script gets only one parameter (the URL) and it _must_ return either an
empty string (if it has handled the URL itself) or the URL that could be
parsed by Internet Adventurer.

These scripts give you a chance to fully customize Internet Adventurer, you
can eg. use them so all ftp:// URL's are parsed to an external FTP client
that downloads the appropriate file - it's up to up, the possibilites are
virtually endless.


--- IRC Scripts ---
Yes, I now support REXX scripts in IRC. I've tried to make them compatible
with GT-IRC, as far as possible, this means that you are able to run eg. the
IceBerg scripts for enhancing the IRC client.

NOTE: IRC Scripts can now also be used to change the messages to/from the
server - see 'Return codes' for info about what to return.

 --- First, a warning ! ---
REXX scripts can really eat away at your CPU, it can take some performance,
especially for large scripts. I'm currently working on it, to see if I can
speed the performance of the REXX scripts up, but for serious scripting, you
should use the DLL plug-in interface that I'll soon be adding.

They work the following way:

You specify the name of 2 rexx script files, one which is called for every
command typed by the user (outgoing), and one which is called every time
the host sends a line (incoming).


The incoming messages scripts are called with 3 parameters as follows:

script.cmd <hwnd> <current_nickname> <string>


The outgoing commands scripts are called with 4 parameters as follows:

script.cmd <hwnd> <window-name> <current_nickname> <string>


The <hwnd> must be used when displaying messages, the <current_nickname> is
for the script to use if it want to, and the <string> is either the command
that the user has typed, or the line received from the IRC server.

The window name is one of the following:
   - Channel name (starting with # or &) - if command is issued in a channel
     window
   - Nickname (not starting with #, & or !) - if command is issued in a
     query/private window.
   - ! if command is issued in another window (usually main window)


--- Return codes ---

The script must return an empty string if Internet Adventurer should not
process the command, they must return "OK" when InetAdv should process the
command unaltered, and finally, they can return a modified command that InetAdv
will then handle. This can come in handy, for eg. scripts that needs to do
translation of special characters.

Example of return codes:
-------------------
return ''               - This causes InetAdv to ignore the command
return 'OK'             - Causes InetAdv to process the original command
return 'anotherstring'  - Causes InetAdv to process anotherstring instead of
                          the original command. This is especially usefull for
                          scripts that do any kind of translation, because if
                          IrcRexxCommand is used, the script is called again,
                          causing delay and it makes the script more complex
                          because it must be sure that it doesn't translate the
                          string again. Returning the modified/translated command
                          does NOT cause InetAdv to call the script again, but it
                          immediately processes the command.
-------------------

There are 5 functions available to the script writer:

IrcRexxDisplay(<text>, <hwnd>)
   This function displayes <text> in the window <hwnd> if <hwnd> is a
   null-string, the text will be displayed in the main irc window.

IrcRexxCommand(<text>, <hwnd>)
   This function let's the rexx script enter a command. This command will be
   processed by Internet Adventurer in the excact same way, as if the user
   typed the command himself. The command will be passed to the script again.
   Note however that playing recursive commands should be avoided, eg. a script
   handling the command "/PLAY" should never send the same command in response
   to a "/PLAY" command.

IrcRexxSend(<text>)
   This function can be used by the script to send a command directly to the
   server. Internet Adventurer will not do any processing of the command, but
   it will forward it directly to the server.

IrcRexxWildCard(<wildcard>, <string>, <options>)
   This function check if a given wildcard matched the string. If a match if
   found, "MATCH" is returned, otherwise "NOMATCH" is returned.
   <option> is optional, and can currently only have one value if specified.
   The value is: 'NOCASE' to turn case sensitivity off.

   Wildcards that can be used are ? to match one char, and * to match any
   number of characters. Use \* or \? to look for * or ? as characters.

   NOTE: The pattern matching matches the whole string, eg. "a" does _not_
   match "abcdef", but "a*" matches "abcdef". "c" does not match "abcdef",
   neither does "*c", but "*c*" does !

IrcRexxIsOp(<channel>, <nick>, <hwnd>)
   This function can be used to query if the nickname is currently operator on
   the specified channel. If channel is "*" then the current channel is
   assumed. This function returns "YES" if the user is op, "NO" if he isn't,
   and "ERROR" if the channel can't be found, or the user is not on that
   channel. NOTE: This command can be used to determine if a user is on a
   given channel.
   
Also, if you need any special function, let me know, and i will probably put
it in.

-----------------
8. REXX Quicklist
-----------------

Internet Adventurer stores all it's quicklist entries in a database. This
database can now be accessed via REXX scripts, and a sample script for
importing the WebExplorer quicklist is also included (import.cmd).

General note about return codes:
   All the functions (except IARX_QOpenDatabase) returns an error code which
   says if the requested operation has succeeded. A return code of 0 means
   that everything went OK, and another return-code indicates an error.

For examples on how to use it, look it the .cmd files - a reference of the
available functions comes here:

IARX_Register
   This function must be the first one to be called from the REXX script.
   It registers all the other functions with REXX, so they can be resolved.

IARX_QOpenDatabase
   This function opens the quicklist database, and makes it available for
   reading. Remember _always_ to close the database after use.
   This function returns a string with an error-message if the database could
   not be opened, and it returns an empty string if the database was opened
   successfully.

IARX_QCloseDatabase
   This function closes the opened database

IARX_QCreate
   This one is use to create a new record in the quicklist, this can be
   either a group or an item.
   It needs one parameter, the name of a stem variable that holds the record
   to insert, eg.  rc = IARX_QCreate("q") - where the stem variable _must_
   have been setup like this:
      q.id            - Record ID
      q.parent        - Parent ID
      q.children      - Number of children
      q.type          - Type (0 = Group, 1 = URL/Item)
      q.title         - Title of Item of Folder
      q.nick          - Nickname of item (must be unique and non-numeric)
      q.url           - The URL (if type = 1)
   Upon successful return, q.id contains the assiged ID.
   If this function fails, it is usually because either the stem variable is
   not setup correctly, or because an item already exists in the quicklist
   with the same nickname.

IARX_QUpdate
   This one is used to update a record in the quicklist, and it will fail if
   it does not already exist.
   It needs one parameter only (look at IARX_QCreate for info about it)

IARX_QDelete
   This one is used to delete a record from the database, note that you must
   only delete a group if it is empty - trying to delete a non-empty group
   could cause bad things to happen to the quicklist database.
   It needs only one parameter, which must contain the ID of the record to
   be deleted.

IARX_QGet
   This function retrieves a record from the database, it requires two
   parameters, the id of the record to read, and the name of the stem to
   place the results in.
   Note that the parent of all quicklist records had ID 0


IARX_QMakeTree
   This function is used to read an entire level of entries, it takes two
   parameters, the first is the name of the stem variable to place the
   results in, the second is the id of the parent record, eg. specifying 0
   as the parent ID gives a list of all the records in the root-level of the
   quicklist tree.
   The stem will look like this on output: rc = IARX_MakeTree("tree", 0)
      tree.items        - Number of items returned
      tree.1.id         - ID of record
      tree.1.parent     - ID of parent
      tree.1.children   - Number of children
      tree.1.type       - Type (0 = Group, 1 = URL/Item)
      tree.1.title      - Title of Item of Folder
      tree.1.nick       - Nickname of item (must be unique and non-numeric)
      tree.1.url        - The URL (if type = 1)

      this continues with tree.2. tree.3. etc. up til tree.items has been
      reached.

   Note that this function will later be enhanced, so it returns the contents
   of the entire tree - this can be done manually in the REXX script now, but
   just calling it again for each group discovered.


WARNING: Before you make your own script to play around with the quicklist,
be sure to take a backup of your quicklist database first, this can be done
by copying quicklst.* to another directory, and copying them back (after
stopping Internet Adventurer) if something goes wrong.

9. Toolbars
-----------

Internet Adventurer supports user-configureable toolbars. That means that you
can create your own buttons on the toolbars, and assign actions to them.

To change the buttons on a tool-bar, click on it with the right mouse button,
and a menu will appear.

You can then select 'Create item' to create a new button, and a notebook will
appear where you can assign actions to it. Select an action, and enter
eventual parameters for it. After assigning an action, you need to give the
new button a name and/or a bitmap. You can select from a list of built-in
bitmaps, or you can load one from a file.

It is also possible to drag/drop buttons from one toolbar to another.


By default, the following actions exist:

1. About InetAdv
   Parameters: None
   Action:     Pop's up an about-dialog for Internet Adventurer.
         
2. Execute program
   Parameters: Programname, and eventual parameters for the program
   Action:     Starts the selected program with the command
               "start /N <program"
   Example:    To start intercom.cmd, you must set the parameters to:
               "cmd.exe /c intercom.cmd" to call the cmd-shell, and let it
               start the .cmd file.
               To start a .exe file, just type the name of the .exe file in
               the parameter list.
      
3. Open URL
   Parameters: The URL to open
   Action:     This command opens an URL.
   Example:    Set parameters to "settings:irc" to open the settings dialog,
               and to "http://home3.inet.tele.dk/krasmus/" to open my homepage.
               You can also type "mailto:krasmus@post3.tele.dk" to send a mail to me,
               or even "irc:default" to open an IRC connection with the
               default setup.
               Internet Adventurer will look at the protocol, and decide what
               way to initate the communication.

4. Settings
   Parameters: Notebook Tab Name
   Action:     Opens the settings dialog
   Example:    Set the parameter to "IRC.HOST". Pressing the button, will
               open the settings-notebook, and display the Host page under
               IRC settings.

5. IRC: Connect
   Parameters: None
   Action:     Opens an IRC session to a server, this is actually the same as
               opening an URL called "irc:default"

6. IRC: Join Channel
   Parameters: None
   Action:     Opens the 'Join channel' dialog, and let's up select the channel
               you want to join.

               command-line, eg. "/msg Starlord_ Internet Adventurer is great"
               will send the message "Internet Adventurer is great" to
               Starlord_.

8. IRC: Userlist
   Parameters: None
   Action:     This will display the list of active users in the channel. Note
               that this action only has effect if the window it's issued from
               is an IRC channel-window.

List of URL protocol types currently recognized:

Protocol    Parameter
settings:   <settings-page> (eg. IRC.FONTS)
irc:        <irc-action>    (see explanation)
mailto:     <emailaddr>     (eg. krasmus@post3.tele.dk)
http:       <http_host>     (eg. home3.inet.tele.dk/krasmus/)
ftp:        <ftp_host>      (eg. hobbes.nmsu.edu)
gopher:     <gopher_host>   (eg. gopher.almaden.ibm.com)
file:       <filename>      (eg. InetAdv.htm)
quicknick:  <nickname>      (eg. yahoo)
quicklist:  None            (brings the quicklist to the foreground)
news:       None            (Starts the newsreader)
mail:       new             (Checks for new mail)


Explanation of 'irc:<irc-action>' :
The action can be:

1 - default
   This causes a normal connection to be established

2 - /command
   This executes the specified IRC command. The command will be treated as if
   it was entered in the main IRC window. (eg. "irc:/join #inetadv"

NOTE: You can use this to create a button that connects to a certain IRC
server, just set the action of the button to "Open URL", and the parameters to
"irc:/server irc.epix.net" - this will open the IRC window, and connect to
the specified server.


Explanation of 'quicknick:<nickname>' :

This 'nickname' will be looked up in the quicklist database, and if a match is
found, the matching URL will be taken instead. Imagine that you have in the
quicklist an item called 'Searc Yahoo', with nickname set to 'Yahoo' and URL
set to 'http://www.yahoo.com'.
When InetAdv sees 'quicknick:yahoo' then it will look up yahoo in the quicklist
database, and change the URL to 'http://www.yahoo.com' This URL will then be
used.

Also note that in the WWW URL-line, just 'Yahoo' can be entered if you want to
connect to http://www.yahoo.com - this can be a _great_ timesaver.


---------------------
10. Database recovery
---------------------

If you quicklist database get's damaged, it is now possible to recover as much
as possible from it. just follow these steps:

 - close Internet Adventurer
 - start an os/2 window and switch to your inetadv directory
 - Now, you should make a backup of your quicklst.* files before tampering
   with them.
 - run qexport.cmd - this will export the quicklist into quicklst.txt
 - delete quicklst.ix* and quicklst.dat
 - run qimport.cmd - this will then recreate the database with all the quicklist
   entries from quicklst.txt
 - exit the os/2 window, and restart Internet Adventurer
 - Now, the database should be fixed again - if you still have any problems,
   please let me know. If you find a way to reproduce any damaging of the
   database, please let me know that also.

If something bad happens to your news database, you can delete the current one
by simply deleting the art* and newsgrp* files. This will cause all your mail
and news to be destroyed, so beware !!

You should take frequent backups of your news/mail database to make sure that
it won't be totally destroyed. If you get the message "Newsgroup database has
been currupted - delete newsgrp.* and artlist.* and start again" - and you've
got some real important messages in it, then let me know, and I'll try to see
if there is a way to recover the database. I'm going to build an automatic
recover utility into InetAdv soon !!

   side-effect that most windows can now be fully resized (made real small)

   use the TMP environment variable setting.
 - Pressing 'Back' while loading a page in www, could trash the history list.

   an empty nickname list.
 - IRC text can now be marked and copied to the clipboard
 - Added /CHANNEL command
 - if a command is started with // then the rest is sent directly to the
   server - eg. //MODE #os/2 is sent to the server instead of being processed
   by InetAdv.
 - /MODE command can now be issued with only channel as parameter, to query
   the current mode.
 - When the slider was moved to the top in IRC windows, the text didn't scroll.
 - You can now double-click on an URL or quicknick in any IRC window.

Version 0.24
 - Fixed the bug that made toolbar bitmaps green in > 256 colors. This was a bug
   in the UCMenus toolkit I use for my toolbars.
 - Moved all configuration from INETADV.INI to OS2.INI - this unfortunately
   means that you configuration needs to be entered again (not the quicklist
   items, but the rest) but it also make InetAdv MUCH MUCH FASTER when loading
   and saving settings.
 - Fixed bug that caused identd to work only once. This also caused InetAdv to
   slow down when connecting to some servers.

 - Fixed a lot of bugs related to the /server command - sometimes you could
   risk being connected to two servers at a time, and receive all messages
   twice :(

   even you do not close the windows before closing the main InetAdv window.
 - WWW History list is much improved - now it also shows the title of the
   page, not just the URL. Any given URL can only appear once in the list.
 - You can now double-click the entry-field in WWW to clear it.
 - Quicklist records are now displayed sorted alphabetically
 - I have spent _alot_ of time on news, and it's almost ready - however, I
   have decided to wait a little longer before I put it out in beta - I want
   it to be rock stable when you first try it, so you won't be put off.
   However, I can tell you that it's going to beat all the current newsreaders
   out there - both in functionality and in looks !

Version 0.25
 - If a TMP variable was not defined in the config.sys, the WWW part would
   trap immediately after starting it.
 - In some cases the quicklist database was reported as corrupted, even
   though it wasn't.
 - I've made rexx scripts for importing/exporting the quicklist. Look at
   qimport.cmd and qexport.cmd - These scripts are a but crude at the moment,
   but they are enough for saving your quicklist if the database get's
   damaged.
 - If you double-click with the right mouse button in the WWW entryfield, the
   field is cleared, and the contents of the clipboard is pasted to it.
 - I have changed some of the bitmaps on the buttons - thanks to
   Seth McFarland (ptackbar@vnet.net) for the new bitmaps !
 - Sometimes, the IRC nicklist was empty when joining a channel - this should
   be fixed now - please let me know if you see this problem again !
 - Fixed a trap in WWW - sometimes, when moving back and forth between pages,
   InetAdv would trap trying to deallocate an invalid pointer.
 - Nicknames in IRC can now be up to 32 characters - REMEMBER: this is only
   possible on some servers - eg. on EFNet servers you can only have nicks
   up to 9 characters long.
 - Newssupprt is now added - both online and offline newsreading is possible,
   and support of up to 10 simultaneous connections to the newsserver is
   implemented. This means that eg. while you are retrieving the list of new
   articles, you can still download a single article and look at that.

Version 0.26
 - If the IRC notify list was large, the server would think I was flooding
   it when I sent ISON requests for all the nicknames in the list - so now
   I send one name at a time.
 - 'gopher://' URL's were replaced by 'gopher://gopher://' oops :((
 - Fixed a trap in news, that could occur after retrieving marked articles
   twice.
 - Names sometimes still didn't show up in the userlist - I thought it was
   fixed in 0.25, but obviously it wasn't :(
 - Channel-list window implemented in IRC
 - A command-line parameter has been added to inetadv.exe - /I:inifilename
   This allows you to specify another .INI file than the default, which is
   to use OS2.INI - Using OS2.INI is much faster than using a private ini
   file, but it uses a little extra memory (around 20K, depending on number
   of channels, nicknames etc.) in OS/2 for caching OS2.INI
   A private ini file has the advantage over OS2.INI that you can copy it
   to another computer.
 - copyini.cmd added - copyini.cmd can be used to copy settings to / from
   OS2.INI.
 - install.cmd and uninst.cmd added.
 - When unsubscribing a group, or deleting headers, the articles did not
   get deleted.
 - Select/Unselect all headers in news is now possible.
   NOTE: If the newsgroup is very large, and contains many articles, this
   will take a long time. I will look at these performance problems once
   the basic functionality is completed.
 - Cross-posted articles generated error 2 if they were retrieved in
   more than one group.
 - You can now doubleclick on an URL inside the article-window - this
   will load the URL.
 - IRC would trap if a string > 500 chars was entered on the command-line.
 - News articles can now be sorted by article-id, subject, author, date and
   by number of lines. Sorting can be both ascending and descending
 - You can now select all headers (the ones without articles) and delete
   them.
 - Search in headers implemented - later search inside articles will come
   too.
 - Colors added - unread articles / headers have other colors in the
   subject than the ones that are read.
 - Marking messages / headers read / unread now possible.
 - Presentation parameters (colors/fonts) now saved for quicklist and for
   all the news windows.
 - News toolbars now follow the 'show toolbars' setting.
 - URL Command-line parameter added - you can now load an URL when you start
   InetAdv.exe - just add eg. http://something or news: or irc: etc.. to
   the parameters.
 - IRC - if scrolling back using the mouse to move the slider, cut/paste
   could get corrupted.
 - Authinfo support added in news.
 - News and WWW statusbars enhanced visually
 - Offline posting of news articles now possible - the articles will be
   sent as soon as you are online again - InetAdv will periodically try
   to send articles.
 - Posted articles are saved in a 'sent' group, for later reference.
 - Articles can now be saved to a file (right-click the article window)
 - New option for doubleclick on an article header - should it mark it for
   download, or retrieve it ?
 - Option for wrapping posted messages on x (default 72) characters
 - IRC /QUIT command now works with spaces in the quit reason - eg.
   "/QUIT will be back later" - previously, only "QUIT will" was shown.
 - Support for signature files added.
 - Multiple newsserver support added - every group now has it's own
   newsserver.
   NOTE: Only registered users can specify multiple newsservers !
 - Support for autogetting all new article bodies added - usually this
   function should be used on a per-group basis, and only for groups with
   relatively few messages - eg. comp.os.os2.announce
 - Option for marking all articles headers read before retrieving new
   headers added.
 - In IRC, you can now see who changed the topic.
 - Alt/Ctrl up/down can now be used to scroll between messages.
 - Ctrl-U and Ctrl-A can be used to select the next unread header, or the
   next unread article.
 - Option for specifying the desktop as parent of all the news windows now
   implemented. This was a pain - all menu accelerators had to be resolved
   manually, because the windows are no longer children of the one which
   contains the menu.
 - Newsgroup names can be changed before subscribing them - this means you
   can now subscribe to any newsgroup/server.
 - Clicking on the news-icon now puts the newswindow in the foreground
   instead of giving an error message.
 - All dates (in the newsreader) are now parsed and displayed in national
   language format.
 - Download directory moved from IRC settings to main settings
 - News can now decode single-part UUEncoded files.
 - % counter now shown when retrieving article bodies.
 - If an old news-database is found, the user is warned that he should
   delete it.
 - UU-Decoded files can now be viewed - great for all those alt.binaries
   groups :)

Version 0.95
 - Blank (empty) lines were not always shown in the MLE window.
 - When sorting on subject, and 2 equal subjects are found, they are now
   sorted by date.
 - Memory allocation tweaked here and there - a few people have experienced
   traps, relating to memory overwrites.
 - Fixed a strange bug - if sorting on article-id was selected, selecting
   to sort articles descending caused a trap.
 - Logging added to IRC
 - The signature file was not used when creating new messages.
 - In the outgoing folder, and the sent folder, CR characters were
   displayed as a flag - they shouldn't have been there at all.
 - After unsubscribing a group, all database operation would slow down.
 - Doubleclicking on an article header where the article exists, brings
   the article window to the foreground.
 - When deleting articles, you now get asked if you want to delete the
   headers as well as the articles, or if you want to leave the headers.
 - Fixed a huge bug in the newsreader - if the newsserver was fast (really
   fast) then news could halt/hang and required restart of InetAdv.
 - /irctrace command added to IRC.
 - Fixed a bug, when doubleclicking on an URL in News, a linefeed could
   sneak it's way into the URL.
 - If an URL ends with a . then it is now removed. This ensures that links
   like "(http://www.something.com)." can be resolved.
 - If settings for a group was opened, while the database was heavily used
   then sometimes the settings couldn't be found.
 - install.cmd has been modified to handle directories with spaces in them.
 - When retrieving news articles, the last already retrieved article was
   retrieved again.
 - The WWW Window now jumps to the foreground whenever you tell it to load
   a new URL.
 - If posting a follow-up message to multiple newsgroups, the server for
   the newsgroup would not be used, and the message could not be sent.
 - When a quicklist item was edited, and the nickname was empty, the
   change was not always saved in the database.
 - Even if CTCP replies was disabled, an error-msg would still be sent if
   a partial CTCP command was received.
 - News database performance increased a lot, but it has been change to
   single-user mode, which means that only one instance of InetAdv can
   use the database at a time - if you want to invoke multiple instances,
   you have to run them from different directories.
 - Added option to only show unread articles/headers, and hide read ones.
 - Max. number of simultaneous connections to the newsserver had been
   increased to 20
 - Mail is ready - up to 5 simultaneous accounts are supported now - if
   you need more than one account, you must register. Mail can be
   retrieved via POP, and sent via SMTP.
 - Added checkmarks to the sort menuitems, so you can see which one is
   selected.
 - Fixed a trap that sometimes occured when DCC ended.
 - Added <unread>:<total> number of messages to the groups list, so you
   can get a quick overview of how many unread/total messages a group
   contains.
 - Added the /P: option, so now you can select which DLL's to load. eg.
   if you never use IRC, you can leave that out - see the command-line
   options section for details.
 - Changed the quicklist database to single-user mode - this means that
   you can only run one inetadv.exe from any give directory - if you
   want to run more than one, you have to do it from different
   directories. You also can not run eg. import.cmd while InetAdv is still
   running.
 - Fixed a bug where a few garbage characters sometimes were appended to
   posted articles.
 - Automatic recovery of a corrupted database is now added.
 - News and mail articles can now be viewed threaded ! The threads are
   sorted alphabetically by subject, but with threads containing unread
   messages at the top.
 - Expired article headers (the ones that are not on the server anymore)
   are now deleted after retrieving the article list, instead of being
   deleted one the group is shown.
 - It is now possible to perform actions on entire threads, eg. you can
   delete all articles in a thread, mark them read/unread etc.
 - Presentation parameters are now saved for both the news and www
   statuslines. Colors can now also be changed.
 - A new article window can be spawned from the current one. This window
   will not change content when another article is selected, so you can
   thus view the contents of multiple articles simultaneously. The window
   positions and presentation parameters are saved (for up to 10 windows)
 - Option to confirm delete of articles added.
 - New icons added, and toolbars have been modified a little, so now you
   can set the size of the bitmaps to 0
