 Legend: !  Bug Fix     
 *  New Feature         
 &  Change of Operation 


Each line begins with one of the modification types listed in the legend above
and then followed by a single digit (0-9) rating the importance/severity of
the modification (0 being least significant).


&4 Internet posts can now be replied to via NetMail with the 'M' command
   from the reading messages prompt.

*3 Automatically loaded Baja modules can be specified in SCFG->System->
   Loadable Modules. This is for specifying .BIN modules that you want
   to have loaded automatically without having to edit all of your command
   shells. Available triggers are Logon, Logoff, and New User.

!5 Relative swap directory disallowed by SBBS and SCFG (i.e. ..\etc) which
   would cause problems when swapping to disk for external programs that
   have start-up directories. If a swap directory is specified, the complete
   path must be specified.

&2 More intelligent directory/drive checking in SCFG when saving changes.

!4 Problems resolved with private posts not being exported into QWK type
   networks.

*2 External programs can be configured to suspend the user's time online
   while running the program (Free Time).

&7 File directory listings are re-listed if using batch flagging prompt.
   If a selection other than [More] is selected, the current page of files
   is redisplayed.

!0 When CID(Editor's Note: Caller ID) is used to reject a caller, the log
   showed a random amount of time used.

!0 Fixed problem with @EXPDAYS@ showing expired users with large numbers of
   days till expiration.

!0 Fixed problem with @TUSED@ showing incorrect time used under some
   circumstances.

*4 Private node-to-node chat now uses a split-screen mode for ANSI users.

!1 Messages posted to "SYSOP" and read by user #1 will be marked as READ.

!3 Fixed problem of users being able to extract files from directories they
   were not allowed to download from.

!3 Multiple extractions from the same file would not work properly unless the
   command was given multiple types ('E' for example), from the transfer
   section.

*4 New toggle option in SCFG for each directory to specify if directory
   should be excluded from new file scans of all libraries/directories.
   This helps speed up new-file scans when there are large numbers of CD-ROM
   directories where no new uploads are likely to occur.

*5 New toggle option in SCFG for each directory to specify if directory
   should be exluded from Auto-ADDFILES search for new FILES.BBS entries
   (for use with ADDFILES v2.10 or later).

*2 New options in SCFG->Nodes->Node X->Toggle options. Logons via user number
   can be disallowed, logon via user "real name" can be allowed (in addition
   to alias), and passwords can be prompted for each logon attempt (even if
   the user name is not found).

&3 Any keys left in the local keyboard buffer by an executed program are
   ignored by Synchronet. Some programs (namely DSZ) have a nasty bug where
   they leave random key sequences (like Ctrl-Break and Alt-Tab) in the
   keyboard buffer sometimes. These "magical" keystrokes are now purged from
   the keyboard buffer.

*1 If an external program creates the file HANGUP.NOW in the node directory,
   Synchronet will immediately hang-up the user upon return and log the user
   off without logging a "Hung-up" in the log file or the HUNGUP.LOG file.

No release date as of yet.
