Changes:
2.9.4
(1) SSL support can now be used incoming.
(2) Added three new configuration entries to handle new features:
listenex [--ssl][--limit <maxusers>][--localhost <hostname>] <port>
privatekey <filename>
publickey <filename>
2.9.3
(1) SECURITY FIX: FD_SETSIZE overflow DOS
(2) SSL support can now be used if configured with --with-ssl
SSL connection is done by passing -s
ex. /quote conn -s ircs.server
Note: this is only partially secure since SSL is only supported
outgoing.
2.9.2
(1) Added flush to logging
(2) General code changes to fix compiling on some compilers
(3) Fixed problems binding to listening address
2.9.1
(1) SECURITY FIX: password check, was only letting incorrect passwords in
(2) Fixed IP binding on listen
2.9.0
(1) Added trailing newlines to log records
(2) Added extra error handling on accepting connections
(3) Fixed buffer overflow in getnickuserhost (reported by Leon Juranic)
(4) Added extra check for gethostbyname2
(5) Made password check more thorough
(6) Fixed ipv6 dns resolving to random ipv4
2.8.9
(1) Fixed backspace security flaw (reported by Yak)
(2) Fixed compile errors related to compound statements
(3) Rewrote logic of /vip command
(4) Rewrote docked session listing code
2.8.8
(1) Added support for setting a specific IP to listen on
(listen <[host:]port> [maxusers])
(2) Enhanced bncsetup to use new conf format and new question to handle
specific host entering.
(3) Changed the Makefile to list libraries last, some crypt libraries
predefined their own main function which prevented compiling.
(4) Reorganized the connection code to fix a bug where a user gets
disconnected while connecting to an irc server.
(5) Socket length was not being set before accept. (Thanks chris)
(6) Removed old hack code for systems that do not support snprintf.
(7) Increased error checking in recv code.
(8) Better parsing of messages
(9) Server buffers always cleared when connecting to a new server.
(10) Initial IPv6 support. Added -6 option to the CONN command
(i.e. CONN -6 irc.ipv6.org) which is only necessary on ambigious
addresses or when connecting via dns.
(11) Listen host can be specified in conf as an ipv6 address by putting
the address in []'s (i.e. LISTEN [2000:610:0:23::]:6669)

the modules are statically-linked into the ircservices executable.
This fixes the installation of chat/ircservices on platforms where
dlopen() doesn't obey its "mode" argument, e.g. RTLD_NOW. Unfortunately,
NetBSD/amd64 currently falls into this category (port-amd64/30570),
but this will also fix installation on any a.out NetBSD or OpenBSD
platform.

package) into "Makefile".
- Don't include "pkgsrc/devel/glib2/buidlink3.mk" because the package
inherits that dependence automatically from the "gtk2+" package.
While here, reintegrate Makefile.common into Makefile since xchat-gnome
has been removed from pkgsrc and there is no further need for Makefile.common.
tron@ says do it.
Several changes are involved since they are all interrelated. These
changes affect about 1000 files.
The first major change is rewriting bsd.builtin.mk as well as all of
the builtin.mk files to follow the new example in bsd.builtin.mk.
The loop to include all of the builtin.mk files needed by the package
is moved from bsd.builtin.mk and into bsd.buildlink3.mk. bsd.builtin.mk
is now included by each of the individual builtin.mk files and provides
some common logic for all of the builtin.mk files. Currently, this
includes the computation for whether the native or pkgsrc version of
the package is preferred. This causes USE_BUILTIN.* to be correctly
set when one builtin.mk file includes another.
The second major change is teach the builtin.mk files to consider
files under ${LOCALBASE} to be from pkgsrc-controlled packages. Most
of the builtin.mk files test for the presence of built-in software by
checking for the existence of certain files, e.g. <pthread.h>, and we
now assume that if that file is under ${LOCALBASE}, then it must be
from pkgsrc. This modification is a nod toward LOCALBASE=/usr. The
exceptions to this new check are the X11 distribution packages, which
are handled specially as noted below.
The third major change is providing builtin.mk and version.mk files
for each of the X11 distribution packages in pkgsrc. The builtin.mk
file can detect whether the native X11 distribution is the same as
the one provided by pkgsrc, and the version.mk file computes the
version of the X11 distribution package, whether it's built-in or not.
The fourth major change is that the buildlink3.mk files for X11 packages
that install parts which are part of X11 distribution packages, e.g.
Xpm, Xcursor, etc., now use imake to query the X11 distribution for
whether the software is already provided by the X11 distribution.
This is more accurate than grepping for a symbol name in the imake
config files. Using imake required sprinkling various builtin-imake.mk
helper files into pkgsrc directories. These files are used as input
to imake since imake can't use stdin for that purpose.
The fifth major change is in how packages note that they use X11.
Instead of setting USE_X11, package Makefiles should now include
x11.buildlink3.mk instead. This causes the X11 package buildlink3
and builtin logic to be executed at the correct place for buildlink3.mk
and builtin.mk files that previously set USE_X11, and fixes packages
that relied on buildlink3.mk files to implicitly note that X11 is
needed. Package buildlink3.mk should also include x11.buildlink3.mk
when linking against the package libraries requires also linking
against the X11 libraries. Where it was obvious, redundant inclusions
of x11.buildlink3.mk have been removed.
- internal libgadu now work with gnutls instead openssl library.
- fixed crash while start.
- Tlen.pl configuration moved to .gg2/tlen file
- Then to Everaldo www.everaldo.com for his Jabber icons.
- close bugs #177,#146,#170,#141,#148
- fixes of parsing links in chat window
- and others.
Changes:
- Fixes for two remotely exploitable crash bugs. See
http://gaim.sourceforge.net/security/ for more information.
- Removed parts of the font selection dialog that were not respected
- Fix being invited to a multi user chat on MSN
- Multiple SILC accounts should work now (Pekka Riikonen)

- Fix gevolution plugin to remember buddy name when someone added you
and you then add them
- Formatting in jabber chats works
- Fix to prevent MSN disconnecting if you change status while
- connecting
- Change to correctly handle adding jabber buddies on ejabberd servers

And always is defined as share/examples/rc.d
which was the default before.
This rc.d scripts are not automatically added to PLISTs now also.
So add to each corresponding PLIST as required.
This was discussed on tech-pkg in late January and late April.
Todo: remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR uses in MESSAGES and elsewhere
and remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR itself.
0.11.7.3:
A serious bug in naim's HTML rendering engine has been identified and
corrected. Additionally, changes to the packaging have reduced the source
tarball size from 529 kB in 0.11.7.2 to 452 kB for 0.11.7.3. naim now
completely passes "make distcheck", and distcheck is used to create source
tarballs. FireTalk now allows you to send messages to the :RAW target before
signing on, to allow passwords to be sent to the server during signon. The
IRC driver now handles /names replies from servers that use non-standard
status identifiers (such as those who implement "halfop" and other
statuses). The UI includes code to suppress duplicate messages and redundant
message targets. The embedded Libtool was upgraded to match the stock 1.5.10
release. A new "proto_user_onlineval" chain was added to allow module
authors to track buddy online status.
0.11.7.3.1:
On some systems, naim's build system was unable to generate a list of
special characters to read, which caused naim to interpret the Home key as
Ŋ, etc. naim's build system has been changed to work around the issue.
No other changes have been made since 0.11.7.3.
patch by Evan Hall in PR 29964 (slightly modified)
0.80 - 04/13/2005
* Changed keepalive messages to FLAP channel 0x05 messages, as recommended.
* Re-implemented idle time reporting. Any keystroke in bsflite now resets
your idle time, rather than only on sending a message.
* New option "respond_idle_only" to send away message auto-response only
when away and idle.
* Fixed the terminal line erasing problem previously detailed in the README
both in UNIX (using vt100 sequences), Windows (using console functions)
and DOS (using conio functions). Plan 9 is unaffected since the rio
terminal properly supports reverse line wrap.
* Screen names longer than 16 characters are trimmed to the first
13 characters plus "..." in the buddy list display. Use 'wf' to
see the entire name. This is necessary now with @mac.com and
@thematrixonline.com accounts.
* New command 'G' : write away messages in ~/.bsflite/awaymessages,
one per line, and use 'G' to set them.
* Finally added server-side buddy lists. Buddy add/delete now stores the
information on the server. If you have a buddies file, run this
new version with it once, then delete it.
* Optional "netspeak cleaner" - see cleaner.c and config file
* Cleaned up and sped up login sequence.
* Fixed a mysterious bug where mobile users would disappear from the
buddy list even though they were online.
* imcomm now supports sending more than one packet at a time, which
seems to be how other clients do some things. The fetch awaymsg/profile
command now takes advantage of this, which seems to improve the rate
limit situation a bit. Also, the 'b' command works most of the time
without triggering a rate limit warning.
* Buddy list display now adjusts with screen size.
* Added a configuration file. See config-example for details.
* Changed default paths to ~/.bsflite/[config,log,profile,buddies,icon]
* Fixed the endlessly repeating error messages on certain platforms.
* l command now shows the last 20 lines instead of 10.
* Implemented MD5-based login in IMComm instead of the old, "roasted"
password algorithm. This improves things on three fronts:
- your password is no longer sent in plaintext
- you can login with a @mac.com account
- you can login with an ICQ UIN
This is the way the official client has done things for a while. I used
MD5 routines developed by L. Peter Deutsch (md5.c, md5.h in imcomm/)
for this, at least until I become inspired enough to write my own.
Changes:
- convert to options.mk
1.0.2:
======
Due to the new SILC Server release with support to the UTF-8 nicknames and
channel names new version of the SILC Client is released as it seems the
older ones do not function very well with the new server. This version
includes support to the UTF-8 encoded nicknames and channel names, however,
certain problems may still exists, as this is a slight premature release.
- Added support for UTF-8 encoded nicknames and channel names.
- Command queue implemented for better UTF-8 support.
- --with-silc-includes and --with-silc-libs added gto configure to use
pre-installed SILC Toolkit.
Changes:
- convert to options.mk
0.9.19p1:
=========
A little update with this 0.9.19p1. After such a major release problems
were expected and the p1 fixes some crashes. Upgrade strongly
recommended.
0.9.19:
=======
And after a long break new SILC Server is out. This version finalizes the
SILC protocol version 1.2 development and introduces UTF-8 nicknames, channel
names, usernames and host names. It is now possible to create practically any
kind of nicknames and channel names. Practically all letters, numbers and
punctuation marks are supported. Special characters, control characters and
various odd symbol characters however are not allowed. Several minor and
major bugs has been fixed as well. Upgrading is strongly recommended. Old
clients that does not yet support UTF-8 encoded nicknames and channel names
are still able to connect and function normally as long as they do not need
to handle odd UTF-8 encoded names.
- Added support for UTF-8 encoded identifier strings, such as nicknames
and channel names.
- Fixed founder mode handling on JOIN on normal/backup on empty
channels.
- Fixed WATCH command handling on backup router.
- Fixed WATCH command announcing. The WATCH and SILC Gaim buddy list
should work better now.
- Simplified INVITE and BAN string handling in server. Announcing
INVITE and BAN strings should work more reliably now.
- Fixed several bugs from the backup and resuming protocol.
- Fixed, hopefully, all the wrong server statistics numbers.
- Fixed CLOSE command to handle backup routers correctly.
- Fixed various detaching and resuming bugs.
- Fixed announcing to not announce unregistered (ghost) clients.
- Fixed reconnect_keep_trying and QoS settings in server config files.
- Several other bugfixes were made.
4.14.0
------
Because of the mistake I made in the previous version, the 'u' letter was
eaten by the RTF parser when processing messages from windows icq clients.
It looked for unicode chars, but ate all 'u' characters it used to found.
Fixed that.
A memory leak problem when checking RSS was fixed.
Gadu-Gadu module used to produce a segfault when it was unable to obtain
a registration token from the server. Now it doesn't crash, though the
impossibility to register a new UIN is still there. The serve simply
doesn't find an appropriate document by the registration URL. Too bad.
Applied a small patch by Paul Chitescu so that it's now possible to start
centericq with all protocols set to offline.
Another type of external event was added. Now you can execute your actions
when someone goes offline. Hope someone finds that useful.
4.20.0
------
PGP encryption support was implemented for the Jabber module. In a nutshell
this means that with a proper setup your communications get a way more secure.
GPGME library is needed to build the PGP support.
Fixed the RTF parser that takes charge when a message from a Windows ICQ
client is received. One problem was that it used to treat backspace characters
wrong sometimes. Another problem with utf-16 was fixed with a patch submitted
by Vadim Nosovsky.
After ICQ dual login detection centericq used to try re-connecting, though it
wasn't supposed to. Fixed.
During a long time noone reported me the bug related to libicq2000's header
files getting installed each time "make install" was run for centericq. Finally
Wolfram Schlich noted this one, so I fixed it.
Logging on Yahoo! didn't work on Sun Sparc machines. Fixed that. That might
also revive Gadu-Gadu on bigendian architectures.
A couple of interface related bugs were fixed, such as a mistake in the group
organization dialog as well as not clearing pending messages for contacts in
non-chat communication mode.
Security fixes for three DoS vulnerabilities:
Remote DoS on receiving malformed HTML
Remote DoS on receiving certain messages over IRC
Jabber remote crash
Changes:
- URL escaping now works with UTF-8 text. This may break some old
log files.
- Revert to XOR auth for ICQ as the md5 is not fully functional
- Fix bug with going away while in a jabber chat
- MSN bug fixes (Felipe Contreras)
- Escape things properly in IRC

EPIC4-2.2
*** News -- 11/09/2004 -- Changes to way spaces are handled *** IMPORTANT ***
Up until this point, the technical definition of what is a "space"
(the term used for an Internal Field Separator (IFS), that is, the
thing that separates one word from another word)
EPIC has always had three sets of IFSs
1) Character 32 only ("space")
2) Characters 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 32 ("my_isspace()")
3) Whatever your locale says is a space ("isspace")
In the C locale (the default for unix users), sets #2 and #3 are
exactly the same. I don't know about other locales.
Now we are going to only use set #3. Changing Set #2 to Set #3 is
easy, and nobody should notice any difference there. The one that
is going to cause pain is Set #1. Consider this situation:
One<tab>Two
Is this one word, or two words? In some places in epic, it is one
word, and in other places it is two words. As a result of this
change, it will now always be two words every place.
Here is a list of the places that were using Set #1 that will change
to use Set #3, and you should be on the lookout for changes!
*) /AWAY separated the end of its flags with spaces.
This means
/AWAY -ALL<tab>Hi there!
will now work properly.
*) $pop(....) removes the last word from the argument list.
Whereas $pop(one two<tab>three) used to return "two<tab>three"
is will now only return "three"
*) Commands are separated from the argument list by a "space".
Whereas
/one<tab>two blah blah blah
parsed "one<tab>two" as the command, now "one" is the command
and "two" is part of the argument list.
*) In expressions, a variable name may be separated from an
operator with a space. Whereas things like
@var<tab> =foo
might have failed because <tab> is not a valid character in
a variable name, it will now treat <tab> the same as a space.
*) Places that expect a number did not accept a string that contained
a <tab> so that things like
<tab><tab>9
was not accepted as a number. Now it will be.
*) The /IGNORE command used to consider a string containing a <tab>
to not be empty. This means that
/IGNORE <tab>
would not list the ignorance list, but rather would try to show
the ban value for an ignore matching <tab> which isn't reasonable.
*) The % wildcard pattern stopped matching only when it saw char 32.
Now it will stop whenever it seems a Set 3 type space.
So whereas before "%" matched "one<tab>two" now it won't,
because "one<tab>two" is two words, not one word.
*) In /xdebug extractw mode, tabs before or after double quotes were
not considered to start or end a double quoted word. So previously
this string:
one <tab>"two three" four
contained four words, because the <tab> before "two nullified
the double quoting. Now that <tab> is treated like any other
space, the above word has three words, not four.
Places that use Set 1 and will NOT be changing to Set 3, because
they are parsing IRC protocol data, which stipulates that the IFS
MUST be a space solely:
*) CTCP requests and replies are formatted only with spaces
*) Words in protocol messages are separated only with spaces
*** News -- 11/09/2004 -- You may now mangle ALT_CHAR characters
And ALT_CHAR mangling is included in ALL. This was an oversight
that was fixed in epic5.
*** News -- 11/02/2004 -- Mangling "ALL,-BOLD" no longer mangles "ALL_OFF"
In general, if you use ANSI (ALL includes ANSI), the mangled string
has its six attributes (COLOR, REVERSE, UNDERLINE, BOLD, BLINK,
ALT_CHAR) rewritten into canonical form. This will add some ALL_OFFs
to your string that weren't there originally. So if you strip all of
the attributes (as ALL does), then epic will strip ALL_OFF off as well.
This retains backwards compatability with ALL.
But if you use ANSI and don't want to strip all 6 of the attributes,
then it's important that ALL_OFFs are not removed, otherwise your
string will not appear as it should (the ANSInator uses ALL_OFFs to
turn off attributes). So EPIC automatically will not strip ALL_OFFs
if you use ANSI and do not mangle one of the 6 attributes.
Examples:
$stripcrap(ALL this is ^B^_bold underline^_ not bold)
will strip everything as it has always done.
$stripcrap(ALL,-BOLD this is ^B^_bold underline^_^B not bold)
will strip everything but not bold and all_offs, because if all_offs
are stripped, then "not bold" will be in bold!
The entire point of this is to allow /set mangle_logfile ALL to
work the way it has always worked, and $stripcrap(ALL,-BOLD ...)
to work the way it *should* work.
*** News -- 10/06/2004 -- Support for +e and +I numerics from efnet
EFNet has +e and +I channel modes, which act like +b does.
These numerics are now handled by epic like +b is.
*** News -- 10/06/2004 -- New status bar expandos, %{2}W and %{3}W
These two new expandos expand to the same value as %W.
%W Expands on each input window on each screen that has
two or more visible windows.
%{2}W Expands on all visible windows on all screens.
%{3}W Expands on each input window on each screen, even on
screens that have only one visible window.
*** News -- 10/06/2004 -- Support for ircnet's "numeric nick" feature
On ircnet, each user is given a unique numeric identifier, which
is their one true nickname. In addition to this numeric id, they
can have a rfc1459 nickname, but they are not required to have one.
Further, the special numeric id 0 is reserved and refers to the
user's own numeric id. EPIC now fully supports all of this,
particularly in the following ways:
/NICK <unique id>
/NICK 0
To turn off your rfc1459 nickname.
$serverctl(GET <refnum> UNIQUE_ID)
$serverctl(SET <refnum> UNIQUE_ID)
To retrieve and change your unique nickname.
Changing your unique id is probably a bad idea.
/USERHOST <unique id>
You may USERHOST unique id's now.
'epic 0'
You may now use the nickname 0 on the epic command
line if you don't want to use an rfc1459 nickname
on an ircnet server.
Using unique numeric id's on non-ircnet servers is probably
fraught with peril. Try to avoid that.
*** News -- 10/06/2004 -- /SET INDENT maxes out at 1/3 screen width
Previously, if you did /set indent on, and the width of the
first word on the first line was > 1/3 of the screen's width,
then the second (and subsequent) lines were not indented at all.
This was the historical ircII behavior. It seems more sensible
to cap the indent level at 1/3 of the screen's width and indent
it to there.
EPIC4-2.0
*** News -- 02/03/2004 -- ERASE_LINE behavior slightly modified
The ERASE_LINE input function has been modified to not overwrite the
input buffer when it is called on an empty input line.
EPIC4-1.2.9
*** News -- 01/25/2004 -- Slight changes to /ON SSL_SERVER_CERT
|Rain| pointed out that /ON SSL_SERVER_CERT was not terribly useful
because $1 (cert subject) and $2 (cert issuer) could contain spaces,
and so you couldn't really use $1 and $2 to fetch them. He proposed
that we hook a url-encoded version of the subject and issuer (so they
won't contain any spaces) and you can use $urldecode($1) to get the
subject and $urldecode($2) to get the issuer.
EPIC4-1.2.7
*** News -- 01/18/2004 -- New functions $cofilter() and $corfilter().
These are compliments of $copattern().
*** News -- 12/27/2003 -- New $dccctl() modes.
Added $dccctl(get [ref] writable) and $dccctl(writables). This is
useful for sending lots of data out on a raw or chat dcc. Epic will
(iirc) normally drop the data in such cases rather than blocking or
buffering. This isn't a complete solution. Writable means that a
certain amount of data can be written, so data can still be lost.
*** News -- 12/27/2003 -- Added /SET DCC_DEQUOTE_FILENAMES
This turns the double quoted space decoding feature added recently for
received DCC SEND requests on and off.
*** News -- 12/27/2003 -- $rest() also removes chars from the right.
Using a negative first arg causes $rest() to strip chars from the right
hand side of the string. This makes it a compliment to $right() as
well as $left(), but if a script relies on it returning the original
string the way it did before, it may now cause compatibility problems.
If it does, talk to CrazyEddy on #epic efnet.
*** News -- 12/27/2003 -- Added $splicec() in functions script.
This works much the same way as $splice(), but on characters, not
words. It won't work seemlessly on local vars though.
EPIC4-1.2.5
*** News -- 12/13/2003 -- Default of AUTO_REJOIN is now OFF
Per the poll taken on the epic mailing list, the preponderance of
opinion being in favor of changing the default value of AUTO_REJOIN
to OFF, as of commit 672, the default value is changed. You will
want to put /SET AUTO_REJOIN ON in your ~/.epicrc to get the old
value.
*** News -- 12/11/2003 -- Command parser ignores spaces after semicolons
Since the dawn of the modern ircII syntax, the following syntax
has caused consternation with scripters:
/eval {two; three}
because it runs the /two alias, and then outputs the text "three"
to the current target (channel-or-query). This is because the
command parser does not ignore spaces after semicolons; a leading
space results in ircII assuming you are wanting to run the empty
command (yes, there is actually an empty command), which just
happens to be the /say command. Well, enough is enough. I'm
putting a stop to this. If you depend on this horrifically broken
behavior, then the time has come to switch to using /SAY. The
rest of us will enjoy not having to freak out about spaces after
semicolons.
*** News -- 12/11/2003 -- New /WINDOW verb, /WINDOW SCROLLADJ [ON|OFF]
When the default value of ON is used, when you "GROW" a window,
or otherwise cause the size of a window to be increased, the top
of the scrollable view is moved back so you can see more of the
lines that have recently scrolled off the screen. If you change
this to OFF, the behavior is more like ircII, where when something
scrolls off the window, nothing will bring it back unless you go
into scrollback mode.
*** News -- 12/11/2003 -- New /ON, /ON WINDOW_BEFOREKILL
The value of $* is the window refnum (number) of the window that
is about to be killed. You cannot stop the kill from happening,
but you do get this opportunity to save any information about the
window that you might want. *DANGER*DANGER*DANGER* EPIC does not
try to stop you from doing something really dumb in this /ON, and
if you try to change the window being killed, or you affect the
visibility or invisibility of any window, you run the definite chance
of confusing EPIC and causing a panic. This is not a bug, this is
just your peril if you ignore this warning. Use /DEFER to run
commands safely from within /ONs.
EPIC4-1.2.3
*** News -- 12/05/2003 -- New built in function $numlines() (fudd)
The first argument to $numlines() is the width of a line (which you
can get from $geom() if you want to use that), and the rest of the
text is some text. The return value is the number of screen lines
that will be taken up if you were to /echo the text to a window of
the given number of columns.
*** News -- 12/03/2003 -- New command line arguments, -o and -O
POSIX termios allowed systems to define "extended characters" (IEXTEN)
which are interpreted by the kernel and are not passed onto the
application. In 4.4BSD in particular, these "extended characters"
are ^V and ^O. This means that by default, you cannot use these
two characters in a binding. By using the -o option, you ask
EPIC to specifically turn these extended characters on, and by
using the -O option, you ask epic to specifically turn these
extended characters OFF. If you do not specify either option,
epic does not change the current default value.
EPIC4-1.2.2
*** News -- 12/03/2003 -- New /WINDOW verb, /WINDOW SWAPPABLE [ON|OFF]
You may now control whether your windows are "swappable". The
default (backwards-compatable) value is ON. If you set this to
OFF on a visible window, then that visible window cannot be made
hidden, via /WINDOW HIDE or /WINDOW SWAP. If you set this to OFF
on a hidden window, then that hidden window cannot be made visible,
via /WINDOW SHOW, /WINDOW SWAP, /WINDOW BACK or /WINDOW NEXT. You
must reset this value back to ON before you try to swap the window
back in or out.
*** News -- 12/03/2003 -- New /SET, /SET STATUS_NOSWAP
Whenever a window has /WINDOW SWAPPABLE OFF, the %{1}W status expando
will expand to the value of this /SET
*** News -- 12/03/2003 -- SWAPPABLE accessable via $windowctl()
You can now $windowctl(GET <refnum> SWAPPABLE) to get the window
<refnum>'s current swappable status.
* Support for Perl scripts is turned off
* Support for skins compatible with Gadu-Gadu
* Fixes and stabilisation of the code for status changes
* Fixes in tlen.pl plug-in
* Now builds basic modules on MacOSX
* Improvements of "dockapp" plug-in
dircproxy is an IRC proxy server ("bouncer") designed for people
who use IRC from lots of different workstations or clients, but wish
to remain connected and see what they missed while they were away.
You connect to IRC through dircproxy, and it keeps you connected to
the server, even after you detach your client from it. While you're
detached, it logs channel and private messages as well as important
events, and when you re-attach it'll let you know what you missed.
This can be used to give you roughly the same functionality as
using ircII and screen together, except you can use whatever IRC
client you like, including X ones!
* THIS IS AN UNSTABLE DEVELOPMENT RELEASE OF DIRCPROXY. IT HAS HIGHER
* THEN USUAL RISK OF DESTROYING YOUR SYSTEM.
*
* FOR A STABLE RELEASE USE THE LATEST 1.0.x
* Notification when a user is typing
* Advanced Data Forms capability (x:data)
* Mac version uses the menu bar and also has a new color scheme
* Slightly improved new user dialog
* Drag and drop File Transfer
* Ability to specify a status messages when going offline
* The tray icon under X11 should now be more beautiful
* Show self-contact is now a toolbar button instead of a normal option
* There is now an option for all chat windows to be compact by default
* Bugfix: file transfer sometimes wouldn't send the whole file
* Fixed many other small bugs

This is the portable OTR Messaging Library, as well as the toolkit to
help you forge messages.
Off-the-Record (OTR) Messaging allows you to have private
conversations over instant messaging by providing:
Encryption
No one else can read your instant messages.
Authentication
You are assured the correspondent is who you think it is.
Deniability
The messages you send do not have digital signatures that are
checkable by a third party. Anyone can forge messages after a
conversation to make them look like they came from you. However,
during a conversation, your correspondent is assured the messages
he sees are authentic and unmodified.
Perfect forward secrecy
If you lose control of your private keys, no previous conversation
is compromised.

From changelog:
0.73 - 02/06/2005
* Fixed a small compilation bug on 64-bit architectures.
* Now shows a different prompt when away message is set.
* Profile/away display now at least shows line breaks, so things
are a bit easier to read. It's still a little buggy as before,
and no other HTML is supported.
* HTML stripper now strips
* Ported to Bell Labs' Plan 9 operating system. I believe this is
the first AIM client for this platform, so it's quite neat. Thanks
a bunch to Thomas Miller for giving me the idea and support, and
Takeshi Yamanashi and the rest of tip9ug. jp for providing a Plan
9 system to use while I got my own system set up (and for helping
me get that set up, too). Thanks!
* Added a 5-minute keepalive to IMComm by default.
* Added two new commands: A and P, to get just the away message or profile for
a user.
* Finally displays error message when IM is sent to a user who is not online.
* Added support for talking to users with @mac.com accounts.
* Buddy icon support (and accompanying changes in imcomm's structure)
added. This is still somewhat experimental.
* Support added for sending and receiving messages to and from
ICQ users. ICQ users can add your screen name to your contact
list, and you can add their numeric UIN's to your buddy list.
* Fixed a bug where Yahoo! would lose messages (and any other packet really).
* Correctly show the time when incoming Gadu-Gadu messages were sent
(Carl-Daniel Hailfinger).
* Fixed crashes with glib 2.6.
* Fixed MSN crash when conversations time out after the conversation window
was closed.
* Fixed an html parsing bug, CAN-2005-0208.
From the BSFlite homepage:
BSFlite is a rather small and "minimalistic" client for AOL(R)'s Instant
Messenger(TM) service. Instead of having a full screen console interface,
BSFlite employs a command shell interface that allows your fingers to
do all of the work without needlessly sifting through windows.

* portable to many unix (POSIX) systems
* console interface (using curses)
* full unicode (UTF-8) support for input and output
* multiple threads (using pthreads)
* SSL support (using OpenSSL)
* notification window (external Tcl/Tk script)
* spoof typing user
* HTTP gateway
Luke: Yet another bug fix release, many thanks to everyone who has
helped to make gaim more stable!
Stu: I fixed too many Yahoo HTTP proxy bugs, I should just go and
write some core HTTP support that works better. A good all round
bug fix release otherwise.
fixing the following issues:
- chat/eggdrop builds without zlib support on systems without
native zlib support.
- chat/eggdrop compiles without modules on platforms where it
does not explicitly know to support them, missing a few items for PLIST
Luke: Another Bug fix release. This one featuring a fix to the HTTP
Method for MSN users and other MSN fixes. A big thanks to Stu and
Felipe Contreras for those. Stu also spent a long time in valgrind
and so this brings you a Gaim release with fewer memory leaks. This
release is on time primarily because I want to see the MSN fixes
make it into Debian and Fedora before freezes. Expect further bug
fix only releases to come at longer intervals, at Mark's request.
Daniel: This is my first NEWS! (YaY) I didn't really do too much for
this release. There are a few bugfixes, mostly wingaim stuff. Oh, and
I like the new XP System Tray icons.
Sean: I'm down here today. I haven't really been paying too much
attention to these boring bugfix releases, but I'd like to thank
David and welcome him to the team. I'd also like to thank Steven
and Nathan from Silverorange who redid the webpage.
Tim: Another bug fix release. I didn't really fix any bugs, so
I didn't exactly do much for this one. The autopackage will now
work with mozilla-nss, if anyone has that, and not gnutls11. (It
works with either gnutls11 or mozilla-nss, but not gnutls10)
I started working on Gaim-vv again though, and I merged someone's
custom msn smiley patch into the 2.0.0 tree, so expect good things
whenever that's released (no, don't try it now, you won't like it).
Oh and welcome to the team Daniel. Of course, he was already on my
Gaim-vv team.
Stu: Welcome Daniel! you've done some good stuff already. Felipe did some
good work on MSN yet again, so you can all use the HTTP method now. I
didn't do all that much, other than let valgrind tell me what to fix, and
a couple of easy bug fixes from the bug tracker. Hopefully Ethan will get
well soon, so he can get back to merging patches and fixing things.
Nathan: I think I made some Jabber fixes, at least one of which is
ChangeLog'd. I will continue to make empty promises about new features,
especially for 2.0.0. Until then, welcome Daniel!

background, Richard Bullington-McGuire (original ver), Additional
components defined in jabberd.cfg get started as long as they are in
the same directory as the jabberd script (useful for mu-conference
installed through jcr) The script can daemonize itself with the "-b"
switch after starting the various programs it watches over, unless the
debug option is set.

Alvaro's Messenger, or Another MSN messenger clone is a modified and
multilanguage version of Compu's Messenger (CCMSN). It's a Tcl/Tk script
as was CCMSN and Tcl/Tk must be installed to run it. This means it is
multiplatform and can run on any OS having Tcl/Tk installed (Linux, Windows,
Macintosh).
It's a clone of the original MSN Messenger, having the same look and feel.
Some of it features are:
* Sound for Events
* Look and Feel similar to original MSN Messenger
* Multilanguage (Around 40 languages currently supported)
* Running multiple instances of AMSN at once for multiple logins
* File Transfers
* Group Support
* Normal and Animated Emoticons with sounds
* Chat History
two different forks (ayttm and eb-lite). Packaging any of these two could
result on completely different packages than the current ones (mainly because
one uses GNOME2 and the other Qt, and is modular).
Furthermore, IM software tends to get useless as protocols change, so I doubt
these old versions are of any use today. Not to say that they appear broken
on some bulk builds.
No objections in tech-pkg@.
It includes the correct buildlink3.mk file from either Linux-PAM
(security/PAM) or OpenPAM (security/openpam) and eventually will
support solaris-pam. pam.buildlink3.mk will:
* set PAMBASE to the base directory of the PAM files;
* set PAM_TYPE to the PAM implementation used.
There are two variables that can be used to tweak the selection of
the PAM implementation:
PAM_DEFAULT is a user-settable variable whose value is the default
PAM implementation to use.
PAM_ACCEPTED is a package-settable list of PAM implementations
that may be used by the package.
Modify most packages that include PAM/buildlink3.mk to include
pam.buildlink3.mk instead.
* Allow SILC authentication via public key if your key is password
protected (Michele Baldessari)
* More MSN bug fixes (Felipe Contreras)
* Drag-and-drop to conversation window file transfers work again
* Disable the delete button on pounces that aren't saved yet anyway

* Fixed#151737 (Martyn)
* Group chats now support tabbed windows (Geert-Jan)

Bump PKGREVISION.
Centericq now builds fine with gcc 3.4.
A new command-line parameter, --debug, was added. This way, there is no need
anymore to re-build the program in order to enable debug output. However,
when using this mode, make sure you understand what it says in the log
window
and in ~/.centericq/debug.
There are two passwords for an IRC account now. One is for Nickserv and
the other one is for regular IRC authentification, which wasn't
supported before.
Online and free-for-chat mode have the same priority now. So your [f]
contacts won't stay all the time in the top of the list anymore.
Unicode characters in rtf-encoded icq messages aren't lost anymore.
Instead, they are recoded into the primary charset. So now, for example,
Cyrillic sent with gnomeicu, won't disappear.
Segfault when accepting Yahoo! file transfers was fixed.
For online users, centericq now shown the time during which it sees
those contacts online. Check out the first page of user info for an
online contact.
Among the other stuff that didn't let me release .13 earlier was my
moving to Germany. Now I am in Berlin on permanent basis, so if you're

there :)
Patch supplied by Luciano Rodrigues Furtado <lrfurtado@yahoo.com.br>
in private mail.
module directory has changed (eg. "darwin-2level" vs.
"darwin-thread-multi-2level").
binary packages of perl modules need to be distinguishable between
being built against threaded perl and unthreaded perl, so bump the
PKGREVISION of all perl module packages and introduce
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED for perl as perl>=5.8.5nb5 so the correct
dependencies are registered and the binary packages are distinct.

MSNre is a lightweight but powerful console-based MSN Instant
Messenger clone. It has many features, including instant messaging,
sending messages to cell phones, file transfer, complete
contacts/groups management, email notifications, auto-away messages,
netmeeting support, aliases, messages logging, event scripts, local
contact list, multi-user chat support, ability to encode characters in
the system locale, and much more.
New Features:
* Binary relocable. Gaim will find its files even if it's installed
in a location other than the --prefix it was ./configured with.
Pass --disable-binreloc to ./configure to disable.
* IRC now has fallback encodings, and tries harder to display
something useful during an encoding error.
* New MSN protocol icon (Felipe Contreras)
Bug Fixes:
* Fix some leaks (Miah Gregory, Felipe Contreras)
* Fix crashes when removing buddies in certain situations (Andrew Hart)
* Eliminate MSN switchboard errors (Felipe Contreras)
* Fix MSN buddy icon syncronization (Felipe Contreras)
* Correctly display file transfer dialogs for filenames containing &, < or >
* Correctly display MSN authorization dialogs for friendly names containing
&, < or >
* Properly align the right-click docklet menu with the docklet icon in
*nix.
* Fix a crash if the MSN buddy list is not available
* Fix a bug in the request api (Gary Kramlich)
