Added the (now) all new gtkconsole program, with all the changes needed in +dxspider to run it (yet another cmd interface (sigh)). You will need gtk2-perl +installed (most modern linux distros do this automatically).

Added changes to wpxloc.raw (prefixes) suggested by Jim AD1C. +2. Made a change to prevent xml data being interpreted unless we are +configured for it. +3.

Fix spurious announce from previous year appearing in sh/ann. +15Jan06======================================================================= +1. Fix some obviously long standing problems with create_sysop.pl and also +with initialising the User file. +2. Fixed the problem with certain things not being shown in sh/log (because of +a regex that rejected too many things). +3. Speeded up sh/log quite a bit at the same time. +4. Add a default limit of the last 36 months for sh/log querys. +14Jan06======================================================================= +1. undo frequency rounding change, it causes more problems than it solves. +11Jan06======================================================================= +1.

Fix problem with rcmd sh/fdx +27Dec05======================================================================= +1. put some more flesh on the SQL stuff (which may turn out to be a bit of a +red herring as it doesn't appear to be significantly faster (for spots) than +the existing code). +21Dec05======================================================================= +1. Add start of optional SQL working. +2. Fix BadWords so that the simple word check splits words on word boundaries. +13Dec05======================================================================= +1. upissue version no to 1.52 +07Nov05======================================================================= +1.

Now all non-input filtered +PC23s will be sent on. Previously only the first successful new WWV was +rebroadcast. +2. fix the problem with by_dxcc and origin_dxcc not working on WWV. +29Aug05======================================================================= +1. try something else to resolve/prevent more of these spot dupes. It appears +that there is software out there chopping off variable amounts from the ends +of comment fields. This makes the task of detecting dupes that much harder. +10Aug05======================================================================= +1. trim dx spot duplicate length after normalisation +2. Do the same for announces +08Jul05======================================================================= +1. new CTY.DAT encorporated +27May05======================================================================= +1. change copyright in dbg message at startup. +25May05======================================================================= +1.

Important security change. +5. add missing input filter for WWV +16Mar05======================================================================= +1. make the correct correction to the DL entry in wpxloc.raw (left out the +'N' of 'North' in the latitude). +2. Severely reduce the dupes caused by some of the badly configured / written +spot suckers out there. +13Mar05======================================================================= +1. There has been a mix up in the Aranea1 branch. I have managed to merge a +change that I have been meaning to do for ages. I have now made that change +here. +27Feb05======================================================================= +1. fix duping on bad spot suckers that copy the prefix that is put at the end +of the comment section by AR-C nodes becoming the whole comment. +26Feb05======================================================================= +1. Added show/grayline command from Steve K9AN. This is also aliased to +show/greyline :-) +2. fix spot dupe ambiguity on spotter having an SSID (remove it). +25Feb05======================================================================= +1. Changed the way spot deduping is done. This is likely to make deduping much +stricter. In essence a person cannot spot the same call on the same frequency +more than once an hour (configurable) unless he makes a (non-duped) comment +as well. +2. Added Swains Island +3. Added TO4G for Glorioso +19Feb05======================================================================= +1. changed ssb allocation on 40m to add missing 5Khz. +2.

Fix a long standing (ie since the first bulletin was sent) bug with old +mail not being deleted until a restart was done. +2. As well as a duplicate check on existing bulletins, I have added a check +the message is not (already) too old. +3. fix problem for perl < 5.6 in Thingy.pm +03Feb05======================================================================= +1. Added latest Spanish translations courtesy of Angel EA7WA. +2. Force all languages to use pr in en in Messages, as the prompt is +the same for all. +19Jan05======================================================================= +1. More Spanish changes by Angel, EA7WA. +2. add language dependant motd files. You can now have motd_{lang} and +motd_nor_{lang} (eg for Spanish: motd_es and motd_nor_es) for normal and +non-registered (if you use registration) users respectively. Based on an idea +from Angel, EA7WA. +18Jan05======================================================================= +1. Added missing Spanish translation courtesy of Angel EA7WA. +2. Really incorporate latest cty.dat (11Dec04) as opposed to merely thinking +I had (and still add 3X0Y as well). +3. fix ? all in non english language +4. Alias sh/st and sh/sta back to show/station from show/startup. +17Jan05======================================================================= +1. Added 3Y0X to Peter Island 3Y in cty.dat. +16Jan05======================================================================= +1. Added the changes to Canadian Prefixes so that usdbraw.gz from Charlie +K1XX's website (http://dxc.k1xx.com/download) dated after 1Jan05 will include +Canadian city and province data as well the existing US data. +2. Improve the apropos command to take better account of language and do +a better job of only showing english stuff for commands where there really is +no local language version. +15Jan05======================================================================= +1. knocked over a few possible ways of people annoying other people thru +the use of scripts +2. Fixed problem in DXCommandmode with an indirect call that did not work +in perl < 5.8.0. +3. Add Spanish translations of new scripting commands in help, from Angel +EA7WA. +13Jan05======================================================================= +1. Fixed prompting in languages other than English. +2. Fixed language problem with spoof, but that simply hides a whole can of +worms that I shall have to address later. +3. Added make clean to src Makefile (!!!) +12Jan05======================================================================= +1. Add $main::bumpexisting variable which allows a new connection for a user +call to disconnect an existing connection with the same call. The default for +this variable is 'true' (1). This means that existing behaviour has changed. +set/var $main::bumpexisting = 0 to return to original behaviour. +2. Remind a user every hour (as default) that they have new messages. +set/var $DXCommandmode::msgpolltime = 3*3600 to set it to 3 hours. +3. Allow some substitutions in set/prompt (call, date, time and +cluster call) and add dxspider just before the > as standard. +4. Add $main::allowdxby variable so that sysops can switch off the +'DX BY ' that causes only the first word of the +comment to be recorded. +6. Fix bug counting backwards over a leap year in Julian.pm which meant that +sh/dxstats doesn't start at 'yesterday' anymore. +7. Added set/startup and show/startup commands to allow users and sysops +to create and display startup scripts. There is also an unset/startup to +remove a script. +27Dec04======================================================================= +1. add improved VE data from Charlie K1XX. You should update usdb as well. +22Dec04======================================================================= +1. Changed all the names of US prefixes to be prepended with their State code. +thus "Alaska-KL7" becomes "AK-Alaska-KL7". +21Dec04======================================================================= +1. added AGW port no after an example by IW5DEZ. +2. modified links command to suggestions by Charlie K1XX. +3. added show/groups command to show recently used chat groups by Tommy +SM3OSM. +4. fixed T8 / V6 ambiguity (at least basically). 20Dec04======================================================================= 1. updated create_prefix.pl to only use (supplied) wpxloc.raw and cty.dat 2. Added IG9, GM/S, 4U1V and some other detail changes to make it compatible
