Note: KWQ Mail/2 Version 1.2d addresses specific bugs found in the version 1.2c release as reported by a number of users. It is a maintainence release and supplies little new functionality. Fixed in Version 1.2d, 10/28/93: 1. With version 1.2c, when a heavy system load (such as running a DOS-based BBS that polls for system events without giving up CPU cycles) is incurred, the internal editor and message envelope for the external editor do not display To/From/Subject fields properly, and may not display taglines as well. This is due to a background thread starving for CPU cycles. The thread priorities have been adjusted to allow for better performance. 2. Sort by date does not take into account time values properly (AM/PM). 3. Alt-D deletes 1 too many character in the internal editor. Note: KWQ Mail/2 Version 1.2c addresses specific bugs found in the version 1.2b release as reported by a number of users. It is a maintainence release and supplies little new functionality. See the file "WHATS.NEW" for details on enhancements added in this release. Fixed in Version 1.2c, 10/19/93: 1. Fixed SYS3175 on replies due to problems synchronizing background thread with Save and Cancel buttons. 2. KWQ Mail/2 now prompts to Pack replies if messages are recovered from a previous session. 3. Save the last used tagline between uses of the message envelope; if random taglines is off and taglines are turned on, KWQ should just remember the last tagline and display that in the envelope. 5. Tagline file would strip non-ASCII characters out of the lines read. 6. Bugs fixed where taglines where not always appearing. 7. Viewer sometimes cuts off a few lines on NEWFILES.DAT and other files read from the 'Packet' menu. 8. Scrolling problems fixed for large (>1000 line) messages. 9. Reply creation should blank-pad message, instead of NULL pad. 10 Problems with messages not posting to proper conference due to background thread processing of dialog in the internal editor. 11. Fixed problems where current directory was not set properly by program objects, and 'CONTROL.DAT Not Found' message was appearing when .QWK files are unpacked. 12. Fixed crash for message (>4000) .QWK files. 13. Fixed problem where posting a reply caused the conference dialog to reset from the current conference. 14. Put 'All' in 'To:' field for writing a new message. 15. Fixed message cutoff reading messages with embedded NULLs (byte 00). 16. Fixed instability when Netmail conference is extracted during a 'Write New' command. 17. Some editor arguments not were passed properly if no .EXE was found in the name (eg. "EPM 'margins 1 70' /M" ) Note: Version 1.2b addresses specific bugs found in the version 1.2a release as reported by a number of users. It is a maintainence release and supplies little new functionality. Fixed in Version 1.2b, 08/21/93: 1. Last message in conference not displayed for some packets. 2. Complaints of KWQ hogging system message queue for no known reason have been addressed: KWQ no longer depends on short WM_TIMER messages to update the clock display. I don't know if this will fix the problem. 3. Type of archiver used to create QWK packet is not saved between sessions when doing a 'Quick Exit'. 4. Display of XGA-2 metrics not working properly (can't resize small enough in the horizontal direction). 6. Handling of CR embedded paragraphs does not translate CR into CR-LF pairs. 7. Not saving background colors from setup notebook. 8. Directories that have spaces (ie-'E:\ZIP UTIL\PKUNZIP.EXE') would cause errors. 9. Executable configurations give an error when there's paramters supplied. 10. Taglines read thread wait for creating message on first opening packet. 11. Delete packet and cannot open another without changing the selection in the open dialog. 13. Archivers dialog has selection going to wrong edit field when clicking on a label. 14. Add and drop not working properly for some doors. 15. Saving fonts not working properly 16. Next/Previous subject skipping too many items. 17. Taglines sometimes not opening properly. 18. Closing KWQ from the task list does not potentially save out the work, etc. 19. Accelerator keys 'i' doesn't work if caps lock is on. 20. Confirmation to put 'To/From/Subject' information on message creation would follow with removal of envelope dialog. 21. Silver Xpress door compatability added. KWQ does an extended scan for conferences when the conference number is greater than 256 to get around a bug in Silver Xpress's creation of the MESSAGES.DAT file. If you find that messages are being placed in the wrong conference and you are not using packets from the Silver Xpress door, add 'SET KWQ1CONFPASS=TRUE' to your CONFIG.SYS. NOTE: this problem is not known to happen at this time but KWQ has been enabled to help if this does occur. 22. Date formats of xx/xx/xx are now parsed properly Note: Version 1.2a addresses specific bugs found in the version 1.2 release as reported by a number of users. It is a maintainence release and supplies no new functionality. Fixed in Version 1.2a, 06/27/93: 1. CONTROL.DAT parsing broken for some bulletin boards that have punctuation characters in their name. (For example, as reported by Dean Stacey on OS/2 Shareware, the bulletin board with mail packet name INV-FAC.QWK would create a .REP file called INV.REP). 2. CONTROL.DAT parsing not handling date and time properly. 3. Conference selection not consistent when using auto-jump feature.
