`^''----`
A totally frightening, scary, disturbing creation... containing plenty
of horrifying details:
- SR37 was an internal release... long, banal, uninteresting story, not
even worthy of a beer. Not even a light beer.
- Whats really scary? Almost all of today's pop music is crap. And yes,
there was a recent scientific study conducted to prove this as fact; so
don't bother flaming me with "its a generation thing" nonsense.
- The internal message editor has been significantly updated for 43/50
screen mode and will automatically enlarge reading and writing messages.
In DOS, either type MODE 80,43 or MODE 80,50; or on Windows, change the
properties for whatever D'Bridge shortcut you created so that the number
of lines is either 43 or 50.
- In 43/50 screen mode, all multiple-line entry windows/questions are now
automatically enlarged in the mailer to really take advantage of the
bigger screen size. It really makes a difference when working with large
configurations, routing tables, BinkD sessions, etc.
- In 43/50 screen mode, the new question "8x8 Font Usage" in CONFIG-BASIC
allows you to override this for the DOS session; some video cards may
need this to be enabled. (Do NOT enable unless you really need to)
- The BinkD log is now user-definable... sorry for that!
- Slight updates to both the manual and the F1-Help screens
- A new dummy/semaphore file, DBRIDGE.HVA (Hide Violated Areafix) can be
created. If this file exists, and an Areafix request comes in for an
Echomail/EchoFile area that is not authorized, the returned receipt
will say the area does not exist, instead of "Not authorized".
This was done simply for those of you who prefer to hide unauthorized-
areas instead of revealing to remote systems that they do in fact exist.
- Fixed a very rare problem of not being able to select BADECHO from the
internal message editor.
- Jamie Lee Curtis will always and forever be the scream-queen.
- Fixed the F1-Help "bottom" text to match all questions now
- Address Synonym definitions can no longer conflict with Flag Overrides
in the CONFIG-NODELIST screen.
- "Destinations" in the F8/Multiple recipient command has been enlarged
in the internal message editor.
- Flag-Dialing in Config-COMM MODEM SETUP was slightly reworked/adjusted.
- Under a very rare condition, changing the settings in CONFIG-BBS
CONFIGURATION would cause a system crash on a carrier-signal detection.
- Pretty sure I fixed the "NTVDM encountered an error" condition for good.
Trick or treat...
