most important changes: (for full summary see ChangeLog in the distfile)
========================================================================
- Beginning with 2.40, the reference version of Frotz (the DOS version) is
distributed under the GNU Public License rather than the old "no
commercial profit" license. And so is the Unix version.
- V6 games supported by drawing the outlines of pictures. True display of
the graphics are on hold until the X11 with GTK version is complete.
- Classical Infocom sound effects supported through the OSS drivers. I'm
only aware of "Lurking Horror" and "Sherlock: The Riddle of the Crown
Jewels" as having such sound effects. See the INSTALL file for
information on where the sound files should go.
- Quetzal save format is now the default. Old Zip 2.0 format is still
supported by command line option or config file setting.
- History searchs has been added. Type the beginning of a past command
and hit the up or down arrow key.
[bjn] SECURITY: Use is_uploaded_file() function to validate all attachment
uploads (prevent spoofing).
[bjn] SECURITY: Fix attachment upload to use tempnam(). (Jarno Huuskonen
<Jarno.Huuskonen@uku.fi>)
[cjh] SECURITY: Fix attachment viewers to use tempnam().
[cjh] Fix mysql warning with php 4.0.7.
[max] Move all JavaScript URLs to the onclick event handler to prevent
breaking IE SSL in certain circumstances.
[cjh] Add addslashes() to mysql db library.
[bjn] Bug 577: umask fixes to prevent world-writable /tmp files.
(<andreas@conectiva.com.br>)
[bjn] Bug 517: Fixes for LDAP searching--bogus LDAP filters when some
drop-downs were switched away from default values. (Robert Marchand
<robert.marchand@UMontreal.CA>)
[cjh] Allow '+' to terminate URLs.
[max] Move all JavaScript URLs to the onclick event handler to prevent
breaking IE SSL in certain circumstances.
[cjh] Browser detection recognizes ie6.
[cjh] Added locale/se (Daniel Andersson <daniel@addelei.nu>).
[bjn] Ignore errors from PHPLIB session.inc posix_getpid (which isn't
supported by Windows 95/98/ME).
[cjh] Run $language through basename() before returning it in select_lang()
to avoid possible exploits, though a seperate bug in php needs to be
present to really exploit this.
[cjh] Reject From: addresses containing spaces, ';', or '&', and don't put
quotes around addresses (since sendmail doesn't strip them). If this
is too strict, we'll reconsider later.
- Made raw error message accessible from the new error display via
an unobtrusive link.
- Fixed Apache tests when started by a non-root user.
- Added short-circuits for Apache tests on Win32 and on systems with
Apache configurations that cannot be properly parsed.
- Completely redesigned error display. The new display includes a
contextual source listing and readable stacktrace. You can access the
old error behavior with the raw_html and raw_fatal error modes.
- Fixed $m->file to close its filehandle between uses.
- Fixed bad interaction with Mason 1.01 and CPAN module, by adding
version number to ApacheHandler.pm.
- Fixed $m->top_comp to work as documented, and made documentation
- Fixed specification of a component root as "foo => /foo"
- Added 'use Apache.pm' to ApacheHandler.pm, necessary for some
mod_perl installations.
- Implemented configuration of Mason from httpd.conf via PerlSetVar
directives. This removes the need for a handler.pl file in many
cases.
- Revamped ApacheHandler tests to use a real Apache web server and
mod_perl (assuming this is installed). This allows for much better
testing of Mason. However, the test suite takes a bit longer to run
as starting and stopping the server can take a second or two each
time.
- ** Fixed handling of POST requests with query strings via CGI.pm;
the query string arguments were previously ignored, and are now merged
with POST arguments. This is an incompatible change only for those
whose code relied on the arguments missing.
- Added basic validation of arguments to Parser, Interp,
and ApacheHandler constructors.
- Added interp->die_handler, allowing you to install your own
subroutine as $SIG{__DIE__} to catch errors during component
execution. Alternately, you can simply turn the special error
handling off.
- Added interp->use_dhandlers and interp->use_autohandlers, more
intuitive ways to turn on/off dhandlers and autohandlers.
- Eliminated interp->verbose_compile_error, which is no longer needed
and has not worked for some time.
- Documented that you cannot call return() from a <%shared> or <%once>
section.
- Fixed documentation of escaped newline behavior.
- Fixed incorrect code for using mod_perl args method in
eg/session_handler.pl.
The Params::Validate module provides a flexible system for validation
method/function call parameters. The validation can be as simple as
checking for the presence of required parameters or as complex as
validating object classes (via isa) or capabilities (via can),
checking parameter types, and using customized callbacks to ensure
data integrity.
(2) Use devel/readline/Makefile.readline to get readline support, and note
why GNU readline is required.
(3) Make this package work with xpkgwedge...the app-defaults file was
always being installed under ${X11BASE}.
