PROGRAM HISTORY |
6 |
|
|
--------------- |
7 |
|
|
|
8 |
|
|
(remember that all _dates_ are dd.mm.yyyy) |
9 |
|
|
|
10 |
|
|
0.1 (15.06.1994) |
11 |
|
|
----- |
12 |
|
|
First release. Took less than a week of coding. Most features should work now. |
13 |
|
|
All files I encountered can be decoded properly. Some special cases, however, |
14 |
|
|
are still untested. This version was updated two or three times without |
15 |
|
|
upgrading the version number because that were just minor changes. |
16 |
|
|
|
17 |
|
|
0.2 (23.06.1994) |
18 |
|
|
----- |
19 |
|
|
DOS support! After getting some requests for a DOS version, many portions of |
20 |
|
|
the code have been completely rewritten so that the file data is not loaded |
21 |
|
|
into memory. Instead, just an index is saved. Added +e option to select file |
22 |
|
|
extensions. Added +i option to disable user questioning. |
23 |
|
|
Some special cases to evaluate the part no. of the subject line added |
24 |
|
|
Automatic uncompress / gunzip (need to have them installed) |
25 |
|
|
Tar file handling - extract files right out of a tar archive. This is done |
26 |
|
|
from uudeview itself, so you won't need an external tar. |
27 |
|
|
|
28 |
|
|
0.3 (30.06.1994) |
29 |
|
|
----- |
30 |
|
|
Getting smarter every day. After I found some postings with spelling mistakes |
31 |
|
|
in the subject line (namely "something.zip" instead of "something.arj"), I |
32 |
|
|
began to program "Smart Part Merging System" (SPMS (R)). It detects that the |
33 |
|
|
parts of "something.zip" are just the missing parts of "something.arj" and |
34 |
|
|
merges both files. This feature will still need a lot of maintenance, since |
35 |
|
|
there are a lot of special cases. |
36 |
|
|
Added a ton of features. Now you can list the files or enter commands to do |
37 |
|
|
anything with them (you can enter "xv $") to watch the file. |
38 |
|
|
Installed a signal handler for SIGINT (Ctrl-C). If the program was interrupted |
39 |
|
|
by the user, it left LOTS of temporary files in /usr/tmp. They will now be |
40 |
|
|
cleaned. |
41 |
|
|
Again, the user interface was changed. I did that in 0.2, so why not again |
42 |
|
|
in 0.3. I hope you'll agree it's a bit better now. |
43 |
|
|
The program now checks if gunzip has failed (it tests if the resulting file |
44 |
|
|
has less than 2 bytes). |
45 |
|
|
Fixed a bug with filenames that contained spaces at the end. |
46 |
|
|
Linked files in tar archives are now ignored. |
47 |
|
|
In 0.2 each file was decoded before the user was prompted what to do. This |
48 |
|
|
was quite slow on some machines. Now the files are only decoded on request. |
49 |
|
|
|
50 |
|
|
0.3.42 |
51 |
|
|
-------- |
52 |
|
|
I'm quite lazy with documenting all the changes I made to the source code. |
53 |
|
|
I hope I will keep online this time. To do this, I have invented the patch- |
54 |
|
|
level number. Since I have made a lot of changes to the original 0.3 release, |
55 |
|
|
I start with patchlevel 42. |
56 |
|
|
|
57 |
|
|
0.3.43 |
58 |
|
|
-------- |
59 |
|
|
- gets suspicious if it finds multiple begins/ends within the same post |
60 |
|
|
and opens up a new file record |
61 |
|
|
- Treats "BEGIN -- CUT HERE" line exceptionally, because it frequently looks |
62 |
|
|
like valid uuencoded data and fooled the program. The 4-line-safety barrier |
63 |
|
|
didn't catch because the real data followed immediately. |
64 |
|
|
|
65 |
|
|
0.3.44 (25.01.1995) |
66 |
|
|
-------- |
67 |
|
|
- added lots of patches to allow for Mime Base64 decoding ... mostly because |
68 |
|
|
I want to decode this Lion King MPEG from alt.binaries.multimedia |
69 |
|
|
|
70 |
|
|
0.3.45 (29.01.1995) |
71 |
|
|
-------- |
72 |
|
|
- added XX decoding scheme. Was really simple after having to change every- |
73 |
|
|
thing for the above MIME stuff anyway. Just another decoding table. Hope |
74 |
|
|
it works. |
75 |
|
|
|
76 |
|
|
0.3.46 (01.02.1995) |
77 |
|
|
-------- |
78 |
|
|
- included groundworks for desperate mode. I don't know -- should I leave |
79 |
|
|
the '-d' command line option out? |
80 |
|
|
|
81 |
|
|
0.3.47 (03.02.1995) |
82 |
|
|
-------- |
83 |
|
|
- written my own more function. previously, I just called system(), but this |
84 |
|
|
was (a) unstable and (b) didn't work in QuickWin |
85 |
|
|
- included '(i)' action to show file info; either part 0, or part 1 up to the |
86 |
|
|
begin line |
87 |
|
|
- desperate mode finished. Moved the original '-d' (decompress) option to |
88 |
|
|
'-x' (didn't use it anyway, and needs major rewriting) and replaced it |
89 |
|
|
with new desperate option |
90 |
|
|
|
91 |
|
|
0.3.48 (04.02.1995) |
92 |
|
|
-------- |
93 |
|
|
- wrote an case-insensitive string compare function. Have migrated the |
94 |
|
|
extension detection to case-insensitivity |
95 |
|
|
- added some code to detect some common file suffixes (jpg, gif etc.) |
96 |
|
|
added SPMS check: parts of files will not be merged if they have different |
97 |
|
|
but correct suffixes (if one of the files' suffix is not recognized, it |
98 |
|
|
might just be spelled wrong, so this doesn't prevent merging). This should |
99 |
|
|
stop SMPS from merging together complete junk. |
100 |
|
|
- generalized Unix Makefile. Now I only have to change a version number in |
101 |
|
|
one place (well in three places if I consider DOS&Windows with other make |
102 |
|
|
files). |
103 |
|
|
- added multiple passes to SMPS. In first pass, only "exact fits" are merged, |
104 |
|
|
in second pass only files with minimal differences, in third pass, everything |
105 |
|
|
- stripping some boring headers in file (i)nfo |
106 |
|
|
- now it should also accept files with less than 4 lines of data |
107 |
|
|
- finally found the 'bug' that declared some final lines as invalid -- the |
108 |
|
|
encoder has stripped unnecessary chars. Added more checks ... |
109 |
|
|
|
110 |
|
|
0.4 (06.02.1995) |
111 |
|
|
----- |
112 |
|
|
- After getting no bugreports for a few weeks (either nobody uses the program |
113 |
|
|
or it does work after all), I renamed 0.3.48 to 0.4. There is so much dif- |
114 |
|
|
ferent from the original 0.3 that I simply need to indicate these changes |
115 |
|
|
to users. And besides, it's my birthday :-) |
116 |
|
|
- Deleted "ALPHA" indication from the windows version. Now fully integrated. |
117 |
|
|
- moved MIME check in front of UUdata check. Strongest semantics first. |
118 |
|
|
|
119 |
|
|
0.4.1 (08.02.1995) |
120 |
|
|
------- |
121 |
|
|
- Added additional check for a part number on the subject line: |
122 |
|
|
"test.gif 3 of 4" was detected to be 4, now done correctly. |
123 |
|
|
|
124 |
|
|
0.4.2 (10.02.1995) |
125 |
|
|
------- |
126 |
|
|
- bugfixed uudeview.c:IsKnownExtension() which would core dump on some |
127 |
|
|
systems due to NULL read access. Thanks to J. Wilkinson, |
128 |
|
|
<jcw@stuey.eng.pko.dec.com> for pointing out the problem. |
129 |
|
|
This isn't fatal for DOS, and also shouldn't be fatal in Windows. |
130 |
|
|
|
131 |
|
|
0.4.3 (14.02.1995) |
132 |
|
|
------- |
133 |
|
|
- some people couldn't compile the Unix version because I used two |
134 |
|
|
non-standard string functions, strrstr() and strdup(). Thought they |
135 |
|
|
were defined everywhere. Now I've written them on my own. |
136 |
|
|
- moved _FP_strnicmp() to uuutil.c |
137 |
|
|
|
138 |
|
|
0.4.4 (24.02.1995) |
139 |
|
|
------- |
140 |
|
|
- trimmed comments in header files because some compilers warned about |
141 |
|
|
"nested comments" |
142 |
|
|
- fixed annoying bug in CheckGlobalList() that caused infinite loops |
143 |
|
|
and may also have caused core dumps if more than 98 parts were missing |
144 |
|
|
from a posting |
145 |
|
|
- added another clause to the detection of a part number on the subject |
146 |
|
|
line after getting a file by the name of abc-1019.gif, where a part num- |
147 |
|
|
ber of 1019 was detected |
148 |
|
|
|
149 |
|
|
0.4.5 (02.03.1995) |
150 |
|
|
------- |
151 |
|
|
- Added workaround for Netscape, which completely messes up encoded data |
152 |
|
|
on some setups. It replaces &,<,> by their html equivalents and occasio- |
153 |
|
|
nally inserts some junk HREF links. Now whenever an invalid line is found, |
154 |
|
|
it is NetscapeCollapse()d, in the hope it's decodeable afterwards. |
155 |
|
|
|
156 |
|
|
0.4.6 (11.04.1995) |
157 |
|
|
------- |
158 |
|
|
- wow, I just see that it's been a long time since the last bugfix. I guess |
159 |
|
|
it is indeed getting better :-) |
160 |
|
|
- UUdeview would ignore files with double-spacing (one line of data followed |
161 |
|
|
by an empty line). Now, all empty lines are ignored. I just hope this |
162 |
|
|
doesn't add problems elsewhere. Thanks to Gary for this one. |
163 |
|
|
- a slight bug in the Base64 detection made the program fail to pick up the |
164 |
|
|
destination filename when quoted |
165 |
|
|
|
166 |
|
|
0.4.7 (07.05.1995) |
167 |
|
|
------- |
168 |
|
|
- the mime detection was looking for the "Content-Type" message. Now, this |
169 |
|
|
tag is accepted case-insensitive. |
170 |
|
|
- if no trailing lines were at the end of a Base64-encoded file, some data |
171 |
|
|
was written twice, resulting in trailing garbage data. |
172 |
|
|
|
173 |
|
|
0.4.8 (22.05.1995) |
174 |
|
|
------- |
175 |
|
|
- all string compares are now case insensitive, especially because I |
176 |
|
|
found mime headers in all kinds of variations |
177 |
|
|
- small bug fixed that caused uudeview to ignore some files where the |
178 |
|
|
first part didn't have encoded data |
179 |
|
|
- included checking if files exist, prompting the user whether it shall |
180 |
|
|
be overwritten. suggested and coded by Kevin B. York |
181 |
|
|
- new: the encoding engine! incorprorated into the launcher in Windows, |
182 |
|
|
for Dos/Unix, it's in the external 'uuenview' program. |
183 |
|
|
|
184 |
|
|
0.4.9 (07.06.1995) |
185 |
|
|
------- |
186 |
|
|
- allows an 'end' after the encoded data with only an _empty_ line |
187 |
|
|
inbetween. Previously, I expected a valid encoded line with zero |
188 |
|
|
data, meaning that the single character on that line is '`' (UUE) |
189 |
|
|
or '+' (XXE) |
190 |
|
|
|
191 |
|
|
0.4.10 (14.06.1995) |
192 |
|
|
-------- |
193 |
|
|
- funny bug fixed: if the decoder found a valid UUencoded line in a |
194 |
|
|
supposed MIME-data file, it decoded the single line and exited. In |
195 |
|
|
my case, a MIME header triggered this. |
196 |
|
|
- fixed bug with more than one MIME-encoded file in a single message. |
197 |
|
|
- serious bug fixed when overwriting an existing file: I had forgot- |
198 |
|
|
ten O_TRUNC when opening the file, causing some undefined behavior. |
199 |
|
|
|
200 |
|
|
0.4.11 (16.06.1995) |
201 |
|
|
-------- |
202 |
|
|
- renamed all variables 'this' and 'new', as some C++ compilers don't |
203 |
|
|
like using these keywords as names |
204 |
|
|
- renamed the variable 'inpfile' in uudeview.c:more(); I had a type |
205 |
|
|
of the same name (ec@matufia.sp.TRW.COM) |
206 |
|
|
|
207 |
|
|
0.4.12 () |
208 |
|
|
-------- |
209 |
|
|
- more smartness (although I now can't remember where, probably everywhere) |
210 |
|
|
- fixed problem with multiple MIME attachments in a single mail |
211 |
|
|
- can now decode news articles from lynx, which were messed up similar |
212 |
|
|
to Netscape news files, only worse. |
213 |
|
|
- one appearance of strdup() in uuio.c slipped through. Now replaced |
214 |
|
|
by _FP_strdup() |
215 |
|
|
- Instead of having to choose to rename or overwrite existing files each |
216 |
|
|
time, you can now enter 'a' once to overwrite them all. |
217 |
|
|
- The Ultrix C compiler ignored hex escape sequences, which were used in |
218 |
|
|
uuenview.c for CRLF. Now they're in octal. |
219 |
|
|
- not so picky if the last line is longer than expected. some encoders |
220 |
|
|
(more than one!) failed to let the last line end where it was supposed |
221 |
|
|
to end. |
222 |
|
|
- complete rewrite of uuenview. It can now email and post files direcly. |
223 |
|
|
For the purpose of posting, a mini inews program, written by Steven Grady, |
224 |
|
|
<grady@postgres.berkeley.edu>, is included in the distribution |
225 |
|
|
- finally: manual pages! And make install works as well as make install.man! |
226 |
|
|
Thanks to all the people who have been bothering me for months :) |
227 |
|
|
- uudeview and uuenview can now behave similar to uudecode and uuencode |
228 |
|
|
if called like that (ln -s uudeview uudecode). Of course, you don't |
229 |
|
|
loose any smartness. My ultimate goal is to replace these outdated tools. |
230 |
|
|
- attempt to enforce stronger subject-line semantics. uuenview prints the |
231 |
|
|
part numbers in brackets (partno/numparts) and the file name in hard |
232 |
|
|
brackets [ filename.tar.gz ], and this is what the decoder looks for first. |
233 |
|
|
|
234 |
|
|
0.4.13 (20.10.1995) |
235 |
|
|
-------- |
236 |
|
|
- after sending out so many 'beta' versions of 0.4.12 and being asked |
237 |
|
|
whether there's a new one available, I've decided to skip an official |
238 |
|
|
0.4.12. |
239 |
|
|
- Scan speed greatly improved. And if you're sure you only have one article |
240 |
|
|
per file, you can use the undocumented "-f" option for even more speed. |
241 |
|
|
But then everything becomes quite unsafe, as incomplete files are only |
242 |
|
|
detected when decoding. |
243 |
|
|
- don't ignore RETries |
244 |
|
|
- reworked most documentation, and rearranged the rest. All packages now |
245 |
|
|
only include the documentation the reader really needs |
246 |
|
|
- Win version includes a new version of the Launcher, compiled with the |
247 |
|
|
new encoding routines, and also remembering its screen position and size |
248 |
|
|
- Oops, the Netscape repair code was partially broken and needed some repair |
249 |
|
|
itself. |
250 |
|
|
- xxdecoding was broken because of over-tolerant uudecoding |
251 |
|
|
- uudecoding was broken because of over-tolerant uudecoding :( |
252 |
|
|
|
253 |
|
|
0.4.15 (20.01.1996) |
254 |
|
|
-------- |
255 |
|
|
- Implemented my own version of fgets() that allows to transparently read |
256 |
|
|
lines terminated either with LF (Unix), CRLF (DOS) or CR (Mac). Sadly, |
257 |
|
|
it's slower than the original. |
258 |
|
|
- in previous versions, I have very much relaxed the checking for uudecoded |
259 |
|
|
lines (valid_data()). Now I only allow the less strong code (meaning, |
260 |
|
|
allow the data look more weird, more off the specs) if I'm sure it actually |
261 |
|
|
_is_ uuencoded data. This should work in all cases because it was usually |
262 |
|
|
only the last line with was "erroneous" |
263 |
|
|
- included option '-b' to let part numbers in [] take precedence over () |
264 |
|
|
this only affects the kind of brackets uudeview looks to find a part |
265 |
|
|
number _first_ |
266 |
|
|
- fixed problems with multiple MIME attachments |
267 |
|
|
- got rid of the 'Ignore Replies' switch. It caused lots of confusion and |
268 |
|
|
didn't really help anything. |
269 |
|
|
- included option '-f' for fast scanning. Only works if each input file |
270 |
|
|
contains at most one article. Many sanity checks cannot be performed |
271 |
|
|
because much less data is gathered, thus many invalid files may get |
272 |
|
|
processed. |
273 |
|
|
- added e(x)tract command; but (d)ecode stays default. |
274 |
|
|
|
275 |
|
|
0.4.16 (21.01.1996) |
276 |
|
|
-------- |
277 |
|
|
- a tiny typo, which was introduced for debugging purposes but not removed, |
278 |
|
|
broke 0.4.15. This was especially problematic for the Windows version. |
279 |
|
|
|
280 |
|
|
0.4.17 (09.02.1996) |
281 |
|
|
-------- |
282 |
|
|
- once again a stupid 16 bit problem introduced in 0.4.15. In uunconc.c: |
283 |
|
|
uunconc(), the variable pppos, used to remember the file position, was |
284 |
|
|
declared as int. Because of this, on 16 bit systems, it looped over and |
285 |
|
|
over, but the file pointer never reached maxpos :-( |
286 |
|
|
This patchlevel was only released as uudv[dw]04h but not as Unix version |
287 |
|
|
because 32 or 64 bit systems weren't affected. |
288 |
|
|
|
289 |
|
|
0.4.18 (not publicly released) |
290 |
|
|
-------- |
291 |
|
|
- this is an intermediate beta test version. With all the changes going |
292 |
|
|
on, I expect everything to settle into a 0.5 release sooner or later. |
293 |
|
|
- got rid of some bugs |
294 |
|
|
- Base64-encoded lines can now have arbitrary length (not limited to |
295 |
|
|
multiples of four) |
296 |
|
|
- support for BinHex decoding added. No encoder yet. |
297 |
|
|
- complete re-layout of the code. All the encoding/decoding stuff has |
298 |
|
|
been moved into a seperate, system-independent library, while the |
299 |
|
|
enveloping standalone programs uuencode and uudecode are just front- |
300 |
|
|
ends to this library. |
301 |
|
|
- another front-end has been added, uutcl, which makes the library |
302 |
|
|
functions available to Tcl/Tk programs |
303 |
|
|
- A Tcl/Tk script, xdeview, uses these functions and provides a graphical |
304 |
|
|
frontend |
305 |
|
|
- support for decompressing and tar files has been removed. They didn't |
306 |
|
|
work reliably, and aren't the job of a decoder anyway. |
307 |
|
|
- BinHex and Base64 lines may have space characters at the end of the |
308 |
|
|
line |
309 |
|
|
|
310 |
|
|
0.4.19 (not publicly released) |
311 |
|
|
-------- |
312 |
|
|
- More changes everywhere. Fixed another problem with Base64 files. |
313 |
|
|
- Improvements everywhere :) |
314 |
|
|
- Added progress meter to the decoder |
315 |
|
|
|
316 |
|
|
0.5.0 (07.06.1996) |
317 |
|
|
------- |
318 |
|
|
- Well, thought I have to release the stuff sooner or later. |
319 |
|
|
- Fed the code into CVS for better revision control. |
320 |
|
|
|
321 |
|
|
0.5.1 (10.06.1996) |
322 |
|
|
------- |
323 |
|
|
- Fixed problem with multiple tiny Base64 files in a single message. |
324 |
|
|
|
325 |
|
|
0.5.2 (15.06.1996) |
326 |
|
|
------- |
327 |
|
|
- Cleaned up some code; now using size_t parameters for fread() and |
328 |
|
|
fwrite() and such. |
329 |
|
|
- Fixed problem with short BinHex files. |
330 |
|
|
- Use the initial and trailing colon `:' of BinHex files as |
331 |
|
|
`begin' and `end' markers. |
332 |
|
|
- Only encode to message/partial embedded messages if we really |
333 |
|
|
have more than one part; otherwise encode directly to toplevel |
334 |
|
|
MIME body. |
335 |
|
|
|
336 |
|
|
0.5.3 (23.06.1996) |
337 |
|
|
------- |
338 |
|
|
- Complete rewrite of the scanning routines, which have been moved |
339 |
|
|
to uuscan.c and grown into the largest chunks of code. |
340 |
|
|
- Mime files are properly treated with a pretty complete Mime par- |
341 |
|
|
ser. Outside of Mime messages, the scanner falls back to the old |
342 |
|
|
behaviour. |
343 |
|
|
- Offers to `decode' plain text (and quoted-printable text) files |
344 |
|
|
with -t option. |
345 |
|
|
- Intermediate preview release. |
346 |
|
|
|
347 |
|
|
0.5.4 (21.07.1996) |
348 |
|
|
------- |
349 |
|
|
- Rewrote encoding functions. The system-dependent stuff has moved |
350 |
|
|
to the outside of the library. |
351 |
|
|
- Minor changes not affecting the frontend. |
352 |
|
|
|
353 |
|
|
0.5.5 (21.08.1996) |
354 |
|
|
------- |
355 |
|
|
- Bugfixes: |
356 |
|
|
- Sometimes, the file pointer wasn't properly rewound to the beginning |
357 |
|
|
of the headers after bumping into them. |
358 |
|
|
- The Binhex RLE decompressor produced garbage with repetition counts |
359 |
|
|
greater than 127 (which were expanded into negative integers) |
360 |
|
|
- Stripping the last CRLF of a plain-text message was fatal if the |
361 |
|
|
piece was really an unhandled message/multipart part. |
362 |
|
|
|
363 |
|
|
0.5.6 (28.08.1996) |
364 |
|
|
------- |
365 |
|
|
- The Mime-Id buffer in uuencode.c:UUE_PrepPartial() was too small, |
366 |
|
|
causing it to be partially overwritten |
367 |
|
|
- Added code to read part number and file name from UUEnview-Style |
368 |
|
|
headers. Especially important for filename detection with pure |
369 |
|
|
Base64. I consider this an ugly hack, but users call for it. |
370 |
|
|
|
371 |
|
|
0.5.7 (04.09.1996) |
372 |
|
|
------- |
373 |
|
|
- Added "attach" option to uuenview: read a msg from stdin and attach |
374 |
|
|
one or more files using proper MIME multipart/mixed style. |
375 |
|
|
- Fixed configure script: we might need $x_includes for <tk.h> |
376 |
|
|
- Fixed rules for "make install" |
377 |
|
|
|
378 |
|
|
0.5.8 (13.09.1996) |
379 |
|
|
------- |
380 |
|
|
- Fixed output filename when encoding dotfiles |
381 |
|
|
- Fixed uudecode compatibilty mode (would crash when reading stdin) |
382 |
|
|
- Fixed bug with long header lines (was actually a bug in _FP_strncpy) |
383 |
|
|
- Fixed bug when mailing directly from uuenview. The recipient address |
384 |
|
|
length must be added when composing the command. |
385 |
|
|
- Added configure options --enable-sendmail and --enable-inews |
386 |
|
|
|
387 |
|
|
0.5.9 (29.09.1996) |
388 |
|
|
------- |
389 |
|
|
- Fixed percentage display for >20Meg files on 32bit systems, where |
390 |
|
|
100*fsize becomes > MAXINT ... |
391 |
|
|
- Fixed problem with "--- cut here ---" lines that were misinterpreted |
392 |
|
|
as MIME boundaries. |
393 |
|
|
- A user tried to decode a file with an early truncated MIME message |
394 |
|
|
and another message later with the same boundary. Consequently, all |
395 |
|
|
data inbetween was ignored. Added check for a Content-Type with the |
396 |
|
|
same boundary when scanning a subpart. |
397 |
|
|
- Allow to specify more dumbness on UUDeview's command line to ignore |
398 |
|
|
subjects as well as part numbers. Fixed a problem with dumb mode as |
399 |
|
|
well. |

401 |
|
|
0.5.10 (01.10.1996) |
402 |
|
|
-------- |
403 |
|
|
- Plugged memory leak in uucheck.c:PreProcessPart() |
404 |
|
|
|
405 |
|
|
0.5.11 (03.10.1996) |
406 |
|
|
-------- |
407 |
|
|
- Added workaround for broken uuencoded files sent from MS Exchange. |
408 |
|
|
|
409 |
|
|
0.5.12 (23.12.1996) |
410 |
|
|
-------- |
411 |
|
|
- Fixed bug with aborted decoding runs that the tempfile was deleted, |
412 |
|
|
but UUFILE_TMPFILE was still set. |
413 |
|
|
- Make uudeview return a more or less sensible return value: 0 if all |
414 |
|
|
files were decoded successfully, 99 for miscellaneous errors, 2 if |
415 |
|
|
all files failed to decode, or 3 if some files were decoded okay |
416 |
|
|
and others failed. |
417 |
|
|
- Added -n option to uudeview to not print progress bars. |
418 |
|
|
- You can now set global options for UUDeview in the UUDEVIEW environ- |
419 |
|
|
ment variable. Options set there may be overrridden on the command |
420 |
|
|
line. |
421 |
|
|
- Some tweaking to make some troublesome input files (for example with |
422 |
|
|
interleaved blank lines) decode. |
423 |
|
|
- Fixed bug that caused erroneously decoded data when UUencoded data |
424 |
|
|
looked like Base64 (because of the overlapping alphabet) |
425 |
|
|
|
426 |
|
|
0.5.13 (09.01.1997) |
427 |
|
|
-------- |
428 |
|
|
- Fixed bug in uuscan.c. |
429 |
|
|
- Fixed another bug in uuscan.c which happened when a filename |
430 |
|
|
on the Content-Type line happened to contain a header keyword. |
431 |
|
|
- Fixed infinite loop when trying to descramble Netscape data; |
432 |
|
|
in one place we were looking for <a href=, but we would only |
433 |
|
|
be unscrambling this if a double-quote was following. |
434 |
|
|
|
435 |
|
|
0.5.14 (30.04.1997) |
436 |
|
|
-------- |
437 |
|
|
- Fixed problem with the uuencode compatibility of uuenview. |
438 |
|
|
- Do not throw away plain text or quoted-printable parts which |
439 |
|
|
have explicit filenames. |
440 |
|
|
- Fish out another one of those stupid "--- this is the end ---" |
441 |
|
|
lines that looked like uuencoding. |
442 |
|
|
|
443 |
|
|
0.5.15 (08.06.2001) |
444 |
|
|
-------- |
445 |
|
|
- Fixed problem with quoted-printable MIME messages, whose decoding |
446 |
|
|
included their header. |
447 |
|
|
- Added handling for AOL folder files which resemble a MIME multipart |
448 |
|
|
message without a header -- they start off with a boundary line. |
449 |
|
|
- Fixed a buffer overrun problem by adjusting output line size |
450 |
|
|
- Always "decode" MIME bodies which have a filename set in their |
451 |
|
|
Content-Disposition field |
452 |
|
|
- Fixed an end-of-line problem with MIME bodies |
453 |
|
|
- Hopefully fix some Base64 false detections by ignoring seemingly |
454 |
|
|
Base64-encoded lines that are shorter than 40 characters |
455 |
|
|
- Added -a option to uudeview to auto-rename a file if the target file |
456 |
|
|
exists (i.e. foo.gif would become foo.gif.1). |
457 |
|
|
- Make xdeview compile and run with Tcl&Tk > 8.0 |
458 |
|
|
- Do not use "dangerous" gets in minews, replace by fgets |
459 |
|
|
- If the file looks like MIME, be more strict when scanning "text/*" |
460 |
|
|
parts for encoded data. |
461 |
|
|
- Add +o option to never overwrite files (useful in non-interactive |
462 |
|
|
mode) |
463 |
|
|
- Add -c option to autoclear input files from which anything was decoded. |
464 |
|
|
Use with care - UUDeview does not care about anything else in that file. |
465 |
root |
1.2 |
- Add -z option for improved MIME compliance on MIME messages. |
466 |
root |
1.1 |
- Improved encoding detection, it should now be less sensitive to data |
467 |
|
|
that looks both like uu and Base 64. |
468 |
|
|
- Add -r (Reply-To:) and -f (From:) options to uuenview |
469 |
|
|
- Support encoding as quoted-printable |
470 |
|
|
- Support "encoding" as plain text |
471 |
|
|
- Add -t and -q options to uuenview for that |
472 |
|
|
- Make the encoding to be used depend on the last -ubxtq option, so that |
473 |
|
|
you can send plain text and binary attachments on the same command line. |
474 |
|
|
- Make uuenview read the $UUENVIEW command line option |
475 |
|
|
- Tag attachments as "text/plain" if plain text or quoted printable is |
476 |
|
|
used and no other mime type is appropriate. |
477 |
|
|
- Recognize a boundary when scanning a file in "freestyle" mode. This is |
478 |
|
|
similar to the AOL handling above. |

- fix for yEnc files in UUInfoFile |
493 |
|
|
- patch by Matthew Mueller: |
494 |
|
|
- add CRC generation and checks for yEnc |
495 |
|
|
- accept yEnc files where the tab character is not escaped |
496 |
|
|
- improved error checking for yEnc files |
