Clark Development is pleased to announce! PCBoard v15.3 is Shipping! This exciting new release includes all features of PCBoard v15.23 and adds new functionality to several key areas of PCBoard. The upgrade will be available to all PCBoard sysops with current PCBoard Download Access. PCBoard ======= + A new PCBoard display macro has been added, to display the assigned Internet address of the current node. + Users can now choose to view single line file descriptions when accessing the PCBoard file system. + When reading messages online, the system will beep when a message addressed to the user is displayed. + A new online sysop function has been added, allowing the sysop to easily view the contents of a directory. + PCBSetup has been modified to include an on-screen display of the PCB= environment variable overrides for Node and Comm port settings, if they apply. + PCBSetup supports a new name search capability, allowing you to jump directly to a conference by name rather than by number. + PCBSetup now includes a Global Search & Replace option, making it easy for you to globally change drive assignments or directory names all at once. + PCBoard verifies the existence of each file selected for download as they are flagged for download. If the files reside on a hard disk or dedicated CD-ROM this verification is very quick, but can result in excessive delays if the files are stored on a CD-ROM changer. A new file index option allows PCBoard to flag the file for download without verifying that it exists first. + Some networks support a quicker, but proprietary, method of copying files from network drives to the local hard disk. The slow-drive copy routine now supports an option to shell out and run the specified program for copying files to the local hard disk before downloading. + PCBoard will now automatically handle U/L and D/L byte totals exceeding 4Gig. + Various other enhancements necessary for your PCBoard BBS to co-exist with a MetaWorlds server. The combination of PCBoard v15.3, MetaWorlds and the PCBoard-MetaWorlds Interface Kit will allow you to operate your PCBoard BBS and your MetaWorlds system concurrently with both systems sharing the PCBoard message bases and file areas. This means that you can install the new MetaWorlds system without taking your PCBoard BBS offline. Your users can then logon to either system, making the transition to the new MetaWorlds system as easy as possible. PPLC ==== + The encryption routine has been modified (again) to make it more difficult for decompilers to recover your source code. UUCP ==== + If the name of a text file is specified in the alias.out list, outbound messages addressed to the specified alias will be sent to each email address found in the file. This provides an easy way for you to send the same email message to many recipients and provides the foundation for listserv activities. + Prior versions of UUOUT automatically split file attachments into 45K segments. With this release, you can now override this by specifying the maximum size yourself. + Automatic decoding of MIME messages received via email. + Built-in Support for Multiple file attachments FIDO ==== + PCBoard v15.3 includes all of the Fido enhancements listed in the PCBoard v15.23 description.
