3unix/uufnflt - filenamefilters 3 - allow for 1023 octet headers instead of the standard
4Changes - his changes into uulib? 4 255 octet ones.
5 - major scanning and decoding speed-up (by a factor of 3),
6 by replacing ultra-slow _FP_gets and improving IsKnownHeader.
7 - new option OPT_AUTOCHECK to disable O(n) UUCheckGlobalList
8 call after every loadfile, majorly speeds up large decodes.

60.2 101.12 Mon Oct 13 14:11:01 CEST 2008
11 - use the yencode filesize as additional matching criterium
12 to avoid false matches.
13 - made the example decoder more verbose w.r.t. error handling.
14 - removed potentially confusing decide_temp calls from
15 example decoder.
16
171.11 Fri Jun 13 15:32:30 CEST 2008
18 - don't ask.
19
201.10 Fri Jun 13 14:22:42 CEST 2008
21 - fix an infinite-looping problem when scanning in freestyle
22 mode (testcase provided by Pieter Geens and Reinhard Pfau).
23
241.09 Fri May 25 19:38:11 CEST 2007
25 - create something sensible, trust a windows program to fuck
26 it up: work around literal "(null)" filenames in yenc-encoded
27 files.
28 - some minor cleanups.
29
301.08 Sat Dec 16 23:27:13 CET 2006
31 - URGENT update, the last release did not
32 decode files correctly, usually not at all.
33 - my last patch was, of course, completely bogus.
34 (sorry. looked simple...).
35
361.07 Sun Dec 10 17:41:46 CET 2006
37 - fixed an uninitialised variable based on analysis
38 and patch by Mark Martinec.
39
401.06 Tue Dec 6 00:56:05 CET 2005
41 - fix a number of int/long format errors in the encoding part and
42 fix some signed/unsigned char problems of unknown relevance,
43 reported by Jonas Smedegaard.
44 - new EXPERIMENTAL options OPT_RBUF and OPT_WBUF to set default
45 stdio buffer size for reading and writing files.
46
471.051 Thu Mar 3 18:00:52 CET 2005
48 - change of contact address.
49 - updated perl parts to GPLv2.
50
511.05 Fri Feb 25 22:50:27 CET 2005
52 - fix a (likely exploitable) segfault problem, (tracked down
53 and/or reported by Mark Martinec and Robert Lewis).
54
551.04 Tue Dec 28 15:08:44 CET 2004
56 - slightly improved subject filename extraction.
57 Also see the filename callback in the example-decoder.
58
591.03 Sun Apr 18 22:05:43 CEST 2004
60 - upgrade to uudeview-0.5.20, which supposedly fixes a few buffer
61 overflows. However, judging from the patch these vulnerabilities
62 were not present in the Convert-UUlib version (I might err, though,
63 documentation on the actual exploits is scarce).
64 As every uudeview update usually brings more instability than stability
65 I advise against using this version until it has proven itself
66 to be stable, or 1.02 is proven to contain the same buffer overflows.
67
681.02 Sun Apr 18 16:47:26 CEST 2004
69 - renamed crc32 to uulib_crc32, to work around yet another
70 shortcoming in this oh-so-outdated macosx.
71
721.01 Sun Feb 1 19:49:51 CET 2004
73 - make it compile with 5.005_03 (reported by Anton Berezin).
74 - very short files might not be detected because the header
75 parsing code might skip them.
76
771.0 Thu Nov 6 14:32:08 CET 2003
78 - change bracket policy to give priority to (x/y) over (x),
79 and use the last bracket found otherwise.
80 - part numbers at the end of the subject are now recognized.
81 - updated to uulib-0.5.19. Differences and bugfixes kept.
82
830.31 Wed Oct 16 01:22:34 CEST 2002
84 - no internal code changes.
85 - much better documentation, now considered "useful".
86 - removed the procedural interface.
87 - fought the wish to perl-5.8'ify and thus simplify the code :().
88 - stress-tested version 0.3 against 70000 data postings since sunday.
89
900.3 Sun Oct 13 15:12:11 CEST 2002
91 - updated to uulib 0.5.18. As expected, some but not all of my bugfixes
92 have went into uulib, so the number of differences decreased a bit
93 again.
94 - I found out that the library is being sold commercially by Frank
95 Pilhofer, disregarding the GPL and ignoring the rights of the people
96 who sent in patches :(
97 - vastly more useful documentation in the .pm file.
98 - much smaller distribution filesize ;)
99
1000.213 Sat Jul 27 21:16:30 CEST 2002
101 - fixed another buffer overflow, also added a santity check to fgets.
102
1030.212 Sat Apr 6 03:52:13 CEST 2002
104 - fix yEnc decoding support.
105 - new option OPT_DOTDOT, that makes uulib unescape dot-escaping.
106 - increased linelength to 1195.
107
1080.211 Fri Apr 5 23:56:46 CEST 2002
109 - *sigh*. new version of uulib, new braindamaged buffer overflows
110 fixed. Diffs like "line length 256 => 300" should have
111 alerted me...
112
1130.21 Sun Mar 31 22:06:05 CEST 2002
114 - bumped uulib from 0.5.15 to 0.5.17 (adds some yEnc support, YENC_ENCODED).
115 - source-renamed FP_*-symbols to _FP_* again, but still define them
116 to be FP_* in the object file.
117 - new callback: SetFileNameCallback (actually documented ;)
118
1190.201 Sun Sep 16 03:43:38 CEST 2001
120 - fixed another segfault-bug in uulib, thanks to Lars Hecking who
121 provides all the test files ;)
122

12 - merged uulib-0.5.15 129 - merged uulib-0.5.15
130 - optimize decode_file to not copy the file contents when a rename
131 succeeds (TMPDIR same disk as destination).
132 - updated documentation.
