BSD-2-Clause
* Mon May 06 2024 Martin Hauke <mardnh@gmx.de>
- Update to version 1.2.1
* Potential crash fixed if an article is selected while article
tree/list widget update is still in progress (race condition).
* FLTK 1.3 may crash if Fl_Text_Display widget contains very long
lines. With FLTK 1.3 articles containing lines beyond 1000
octets are no longer displayed. It's still possible to store
the raw data to a file. With FLTK 1.4 the behaviour is unchanged.
* Inconsistent permissions of created files fixed.
* Conversion from multiple seldom used 8-bit codepages to Unicode
fixed.
* Unicode database updated to version 15.1.0.
* Connector lines in article tree are now solid for better
visibility.
* Sun Aug 27 2023 Martin Hauke <mardnh@gmx.de>
- Update to version 1.2.0
* French translation added for NLS support.
* Option to skip to next group while searching for next unread
article added.
* Support for custom colors in displayed article added.
* Support for user defined TCP connection timeout.
* Header field "Newsgroups" can now be extracted from overview,
if present. Scoring rules of type "group" are applied to all
groups of an Xpost in this case.
* Support for LIST OVERVIEW.FMT command (RFC 3977) added
* Experimental support for NNTP MAXARTNUM extension added.
* Zero-width space (ZWSP) is now used too as line breaking hint
for the format "flowed" decoder.
* Soft hyphens are now handled consistently with all FLTK
backends (formerly X11 rendered all SHY characters visible,
as defined by ISO 8859-1, while Pango and Cocoa rendered SHY
characters invisible).
* Unicode database updated to version 15.0.0.
* The experimental option USE_CUSTOM_FONTSIZE has been removed
Since FLTK 1.4 there is a resize feature via keyboard
(Ctrl-+/-).
* Examples for postprocessor added in subdirectory "postproc".
* Example for external editor added in subdirectory "editor".
* Sat May 28 2022 Martin Hauke <mardnh@gmx.de>
- Update to version 1.1.0
Bug fixes:
* CORE: Authentication without password is now rejected.
* MAIN: Potential deadlocks in thread-safe replacement functions
fixed.
* GUI: State machine modified to avoid race condition when
articles are marked read while group is not completely loaded
yet.
New features and improvements:
* GUI: Option to automatically check for new articles added (an
interval in minutes can be configured with the new
"refresh_interval" entry in configfile).
* GUI: Checkbox "Tools->Debug mode" removed. Debug mode must be
enabled with command line option "-debug".
* NNTP: Protocol logfile is only created if debug mode was
enabled (and unlinked otherwise, if present). "Tools->Protocol
console" window now requires debug mode.
* GUI: Support for estimated article count in subscription window
added
* GUI: Support for group descriptions in subscription window
added
* NNTP: Support for LIST NEWSGROUPS command (RFC 3977) added
* GUI: Support for subscription proposals from server added
(offered to user after server was changed and group list is
empty)
* CORE: Support for subscription proposals from server added
* NNTP: Support for LIST SUBSCRIPTIONS command (RFC 6048) added
* GUI: File save operations now suggest a pathname in the file
selection window.
* GUI: File save operations now ask the user before an existing
file is overwritten.
* CORE: Function added to suggest a pathname (created from home
directory, program name and timestamp).
* CORE: Message-IDs are now generated with algorithm A3 (uses a
modified Base64 alphabet with "/" replaced by "-"). This
allows to generate RFC 5538 conformant "news"-URIs without
percent-encoding.
* Thu May 13 2021 Martin Hauke <mardnh@gmx.de>
- Update to version 1.0.0
Important notes:
* The new configuration data format is not compatible with versions 0.x
(indicated by the major number bump)!
A script is provided to automatically convert existing configuration
data to the new format. Read "migration/README" for details.
* Because the location of the configuration has changed (see new XDG
module below), the configuration for versions 0.x is preserved.
* It is still possible to downgrade flnews to 0.x, the preserved old
configuration data is used again in this case.
* Now the release version contains 3 numbers "x.y.z"
Major (x) indicates compatibility with configuration data
Minor (y) is incremented for new features
Patch (z) is incremented for bug fixes
Bug fixes:
* CORE: Request for group information is no longer rejected with error
if the group list is empty.
* GUI: After unsubscribing the last group, the article tree/list was not
cleared and the user can click on articles for which the associated
data no longer exists. Such operations will crash the program
(reported by Martin Schnitkemper).
* CORE: Line length limit (998 octets) is now checked before injection.
* GUI: On macOS with system menu bar the status updates to menu entry
"Group->Sort by article number" work now (patch from Dennis Preiser).
The required method update() is not available with old FLTK 1.3
libraries, the option CFG_COCOA_SYS_MENUBAR now requires FLTK 1.4.
* ENC: URI percent encoder for scheme <news> fixed: The characters
defined as <gen-delims> (RFC 3986 Section 2.2) are now encoded
(reported by Marcel Logen).
* GUI: The URI parser now accepts empty <host> for scheme <news>.
* GUI: The current group selection is now restored after a click into
the empty space below the group list (reported by Christian
Schumacher).
* GUI: The article list/tree is now cleared after selecting an empty
group (formerly articles of an unrelated group may still be visible).
* GUI: Some FLTK versions accept selection of deactivated items. There
is now a workaround implemented to make such selections nonfatal.
* GUI: Horizontal scrolling to highlighted result of search fixed.
* GUI: Use FLTK default forground color for group subscription window
too. This should make the content readable with dark background
(reported by Christian Schumacher).
* NLS: German translation "Artikel herunterladen fehlgeschlagen" fixed
(reported by Marcel Logen).
* GUI: If there are multiple signature separators ("-- ") present, now
the last one is used according to "Usenet Best Practice" draft 01
(reported by Marcel Logen).
New features and improvements:
* XDG: Moved default configuration directory to location defined by XDG
* Base Directory Specification 0.7 ("$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/$CFG_NAME").
Other modules now ask the XDG module for the configuration path.
* MAIN: The new command line option "-confprefix" can be used to
override the configuration directory (proposed by Helmut Waitzmann).
* GUI: It is now possible to mark all articles in all groups as read
(menu entry "Group->Mark all groups as read").
* MAIN: New command line option "-debug" to enable debug mode early.
* CONF: configfile entry "domain" replaced with "fqdn". Some users
saw the hostname field in Message-ID algorithm A1 as privacy problem.
A <dot-atom> can be configured for the new entry "fqdn" (should be a
fully qualified domain name, but without root domain). It is used as
<id-right> element when a Message-ID is created with algorithm A2.
* Support for SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH Specification 1.1 added to build system.
Reproducible build option CFG_REPRODUCIBLE removed from CONFIG.
The SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH variable from the environment now overrides the
dates in the GUI, the output of the "-v" command line option and the
man pages (original patch from Bernhard M. Wiedemann).
* Support for target "install-strip" added to build system. The target
"install" no longer strips unnecessary symbols from binaries
(proposed by Martin Schnitkemper).
* EXT: Support for external inews added.
Pathname can be specified with the new "inews" entry in configfile.
* TLS: Protocol versions 1.0 and 1.1 are now disabled as required by
RFC 8996. Both versions are still available in "weak" encryption mode.
* GUI: New menu entry "Group->Mark subthread as read".
* GUI: If there is only one entity to display for a MIME multipart
message (e.g. the selected one with multipart/alternative), the
entity header is now displayed too.
* GUI: An initial greeting phrase can now be specified with the new
"initial_greeting" entry in configfile. It is inserted into articles
that start a new thread (proposed by Wolfgang Bauer).
* FUTIL: Function added to create (multiple) missing directories of a
path.
* FILTER: New scorefile syntax to eliminate the workaround with type
"extended". All score rules now have a wildmat in the first field.
* FILTER: Simplified default regex for test group detection to
"\.test$|^test$", removing the ".*" part at the beginning (proposed by
Urs Janßen).
* POSIX: Support for POSIX.1-2008 and SUSv4 added.
No local replacement functions are used anymore on modern operating
systems. snprintf() replacement function now uses SUSv4 semantics.
* ENC: MIME encoded-words are now generated with "US-ASCII" charset
declaration if there is no 8-bit data to encode in the header field
(e.g. to represent words like " =?-?= " in a RFC 2049 conformant way).
This follows the "lowest common denominator" principle decribed in
RFC 2046 Section 4.1.2.
* TLS: Deprecated functions from OpenSSL 3 API are no longer used.
* GUI: Modified question popup windows to handle pressing ESC key as
"No" or "Reject" respectively.
* GUI: Some entries moved from menu "Article" to "Group".
