Jan 2011 2.00.6
buffer.c Added better multi-line scroll back handling when word wrap is
disabled.
telopt.c Braces are now properly converted in raw gmcp data.
highlight.c Fixed a bug causing only the first highlight on a line to
trigger.

verbosity on the given commands.
buffer.c The first match for #buffer find is now 1 instead of 0.
buffer.c Added support for negative page numbers, causing #grep to search
from the beginning to the end of the scroll back buffer. The
first page is now page 1 instead of page 0.
buffer.c Added a NULL check to prevent possible crashes, not ideal as it
hides an underlying bug.
net.c Added the RECEIVED OUTPUT event with %0 containing the received
output from the server. Can be used to create multi-line
triggers, though it wouldn't be very efficient.
main.c No longer enabling DECCKM on startup so keypad mode works
correctly with MinTTY, it should also result in more reliable
cross-terminal behavior. This might change the sequence of key
presses on some systems, so remap macros that stop working.
mapper.c Added #map resize <size> option to increase the maximum number
of rooms.
mapper.c Added #map get worldsize option.
mapper.c Added #map get worldflags option and fixed some displaying issues
in the #map exit command.

%0 to %6 hold year, month, week, day, hour, minute, and second
for each event.
math.c Added support for automatic dd:hh:mm:ss time to second
conversion. For example, #math test 1:12:32:17 would store
131537 in test. #delay 10:00 #bell would ring the terminal bell
after 10 minutes. This change will effect associative arrays
consisting of numbers and colons.
tinexp.c Updated #replace to support regular expressions. Like with the
#regex command the &1..&99 arguments can be used.
Oct 2010 2.00.5
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

due to php calls messing up the terminal settings.
terminal.c Added the refresh_terminal() function which will reset the
terminal settings to the tintin default.
mapper.c Fixed the MAP EXIT ROOM event, it was reporting the next room
rather than the current room for %0. %1 now holds the new room,
and MAP ENTER ROOM will hold the old room in %1.

42 or MAP ENTER ROOM 27.
vt102.c Fixed bug in the VT102 state handler.

mode, by default an overwrite is performed.
path.c Added the option to use #path load {n;e;s;w;u;d}
path.c When using #path run {delay} you can remove pending run commands
(fairly) safely using: #undelay PATH %d
This will also work for #map run {location} {delay}
Jul 2010 2.00.3
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
mapper.c When path finding the path will be highlighted on the map.

substitution of variables, functions, colors, and
escape codes in the given argument.
config.c Added a config option to enable BIG5 support.

calling #map get on an invalid vnum results in the variable
being set to 0 while #map set calls on invalid vnums do
nothing.
terminal.c Added SCREEN RESIZE event.
session.c Added SESSION ACTIVATED and SESSION DEACTIVATED events.
nest.c Nested variable calls to non existing nests now return

response for if checks, but this is obsolete with the
much more reliable &variable[] call.

scrollback buffer in show_buffer(), needs a better fix but I
don't have the time and patience.

values. Background colors are set with <AAA> to <FFF>
tintin.h Added gtd->flags for global flags instead of using cludgy
flags on gts->flags.
cursor.c Added cursor_redraw_line routine which adds readline input
scrolling behavior. Tintin will probably work quite poorly on
non VT100 terminals now.

stuff they weren't originally intended for. Updated list parsers
throughout the source code.
main.c Added a signal handler for SIG_TSTP to handle ctrl-z smoothly.

legenda is: 250 223 222 200 220 186 201 204 221 188 205 202 187
185 203 206 246
mapper.c Added a flag to draw 6x3 ascii graphics which allows displaying
rooms going ne, nw, se, sw, u, and d.

will send the given argument directly to the mud. Useful for
sending escape sequences because you cannot start a mud
command with an escape sequence.
scrsize.c If in character mode tintin depreps the terminal temporarily
when sending NAWS. Yet another annoying readline bug.
chat.c Added DND (do not disturb) feature. When enabled tintin will
no longer accept new chat connections.
Fixed a bug in the DNS lookup routine for addresses starting
with a number.
Can now chat to people by entering their ip address. Useful to
deal with auto ip bans.
parse.c Complex multi words aliasses are now possible.
data.c Priority lists are now sorted alphabetically per priority level
class.c #class class read <file> no longer parses files for the given
class. The code was too messy to maintain. Instead it'll open
the class, read the file, and close the file.

chat.c Added #chat public option, accepts the all argument.
chat.c Added #forward all which included session output
chat.c Added #color which sets the default color

chat.c Fixed formatting bug causing chat messages containing %s to
crash the client.
chat.c #chat who now shows user flags
parse.c Removed old code that allowed using " " instead of { } in
a couple of commands such as #format. While I used it in
some example scripts the code is causing problems.
data.c Can now use #unmacro by exactly matching the macro instead of
having to use \\ for a single \.
input.c TinTin now enables character mode with echo off and SGA enabled.
December 2005 1.95.7
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

substituted now, allowing variables as variable names.
parse.c No longer sending message spam when using an alias
buffer.c Fixed a long standing crash bug in the buffer cleanup routine.
tinexp.c Now matching arguments in triggers like the old tintin did. This
will interfere with a couple of triggers but shouldn't be too
big a problem. %0 to %9 will capture the smallest possible
amount of text instead of the biggest.
telopt.c IAC EOR and GA spams are dealt with better with {debug telnet}
enabled.
telopt.c Dealing with packet fragmentation in the odd case an IAC EOR or

instead of exiting the program.
chat.c Added back the chat module that was originally included with
version 1.86. I pretty much rewrote it while at it.
configure BIG5 configuration was giving me issues on slackware.
Since I didn't feel like figuring out how the script works
I changed it from --enable-big5 to --big5 and fiddled with
the script till it seemed to work again.
July 2005 1.95.3
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
tinexp.c Now substituting functions and arguments (if needed) in a
function's argument list.
tinexp.c Ending a command with \ will escape the EOL (\r\n) which won't
be appended to the end of the line. Same story for #showme.

evaluation time.
Juny 2005 1.95.1
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the correct line instead of 0.
rl.c reading the default readline init file when leaving tintin.
Should help with a couple of shells not handling this properly.

session.c added #session {-|+|number} options to switch between sessions.
files.c no longer showing output while using #scan to speed things up
for huge log files.
misc.c Added #return which used in an #if check allows bailing out of
a semicolon seperated command string. If used in a #function
you can also add an argument to it to set the result, as
opposed to setting the $result variable directly.
June 2005 1.95.0
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
macro.c Added prompt handling for macro's. Still not perfect.
scrsize.c Fixed resetting of split data when resizing the screen.

ever need them.
rl.c Checking internal messages for prompt gags now
May 2005 1.94.9
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
files.c Added #scan {filename} which will read in a file and send it to
the screen as if it was send by a mud. This allows one to view
raw color logs, turn on logging and save the file in a different
format, as well as adding gags and other text filters to make
things more readable. I set the default logging mode to raw
since ansi log files can now be converted to html ones.
data.c updatenode_list was acting odd, fiddled with it till it stopped
crashing. Not sure what the problem was.
May 2005 1.94.8
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
rl.c Now adding all keyboard input to the scrollback buffer.
rl.c When in #split mode with no #prompt defined tintin tries to
mimic normal behavior, which includes placing input at the
end of the prompt.
prompt.c #prompt matched lines are now written to the scrollback buffer,
to simulate the old behavior make an #action executing #gagline.
May 2005 1.94.5
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

tick.c #delay now works in the startup session. Tickers are still
disabled.
class.c #class <class> read <file>, now only reads in stuff that belongs
to the given class name. Hence in order for this to work you
need #class <class> open, and #class <class> close, calls in
the file itself for this to work.
help.c Removed David Chan from the credit screen shown when starting
up TinTin++. I'm sure he had the best intentions, but he spend
two years making insignificant changes, fiddling with variables,
adding patches written by others, before vanishing into thin air.
April 2005 1.94.4
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
tintin.h Now using strtoll instead of atoll since old platforms only
support strtoll.
telopt.c With #config {CONVERT META} set to ON mud output will have
it's meta characters translated, this to aid in making color
triggers.
split.c Using #split 0 0 will create an input line without the split
line. Useful for people who don't use #prompt.
April 2005 1.94.3
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
log.c Now flushing the log stream after every call so tailing a log
file is an option.
class.c Finished the #class command.
split.c placed #prompt stuff in prompt.c
tinexp.c Added option to start a trigger with ~ in which case colors
are included in string comparisons and substitutions.

tables.c Set substitute priority to save correctly.
May 2005 1.94.1
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

for example 1000 into 1,000.
May 2005 1.94.0
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
rl.c mainloop now uses a threaded call for the old mainloop. This
because the readline() function is blocking and I'm too lazy
to code the stuff readline takes care of.
The new mainloop tries to go at 100 loops per second.
session.c Got rid of connect_delay for connecting sessions. Now using
1 timer.
tick.c Changed #ticker to use floating point precision.
Added delay command: #delay {seconds delay} {command}

%U to print the number of micro seconds since epoch, increased
the number of arguments from 10 to 20.
misc.c Removed the #sleep command, never worked well and should be
obsolete with the #delay command.
misc.c #gagline, when called within an action it will gag the line.
rl.c The #snoop code wasn't working, fixed it up.
data.c Increased the buffer of show_list a little to avoid an overflow
macro.h Changed how macros work, fixing problems like needing a \n at
the end, needing an empty line, macros being added to the
command history. Still can't find a way to have rl erase macros.
Players can enter a command within a line of text using
[[ command ]].
Example: tell bubba (long line) [[chat hi bibbi]] (more text)
rl.c Added the option to delay displaying and parsing possibly broken
packets. Delay in micro seconds can be set with the PACKET PATCH
config option. By default it's set to 0 (disabled).
variables.c Fixed #replacestring which got messed up while I added variable
substitution to it.
rl.c Fixed echoing of commands in split mode.
split.c Changes split and prompt to work more logical, people might
have to change their scripts, new syntax:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
tinexp.c Now only converting ; to : for actions, not for aliasses etc.
path.c Made END OF PATH message triggerable.
variable.c added the do_internal_variable command, which does the same
as do_variable, but allows to set a blank variable. Used by
do_format and do_replacestring.
rl.c added the show_message function which only shows messages from
setting aliasses, variables, etc when called from the command
line, unless debug is enabled.
rl.c Now using the more_output buffer previously only used by the
scrollback buffer to double check actions.

allow escaping braces at a later date with this config option
causing trouble.
June 2004 1.93.0
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
log.c added variable substitution to *arg
misc.c added variable substitution to *arg
parse.c changed escape character behavior, #format will need %+4s
instead of %4s if used in an argument or action. Used to
be possible to use \%4s but that's no good.
tinexp.c \a \e \n \r \t are now translated to the according characters.
(\a equals what #bell does, \r\n would equal #cr, \e is ESC)

routines. Escaped characters are dealt with when data is send
to the mud or screen.
April 2004 1.92.0
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

added %T to #format, which will print the military time
of the provided number as: hours:minuts
added %d to #format, which will print the military data of the
provided number as: day:month:year (if there's no such thing
as a military date I hope you still know what I mean)
-rl.c set tintin to 100 loops per second, might seem too much, but
it doesn't matter cpu wise, and it's always fun when tintin's
triggers beat those of most other client.
-math.c added + - ! and ~ to the mathexp interpreter.
-regexp.c added color support. codes are entered as <abc> and is pretty
much translated as : \e[a;b+30;c+40m with '8' counting as
a skipped color code. People can write their own functions to
make tintin display colors of their own choice.
-variables.c added %R to #format, which will print a number between 1 and
the given number in the argument. Removed #random command.
added %m to #format, which will do the same as #math
-regexp.c added option for end of line terminator ^ so adding ^ to the
end of the line will make tintin return false if the regexp
returns with an unfinished match string.
-main.c I update the credit screen, figured it would appropriate to
put my own name on it after all this work. I turned it into
a helpfile while at it, #help credits should show it.
-regexp.c made the substitute recursively double check variables and
functions if they hold a variable of a different kind, useful
for variables or functions holding color codes.
-misc.c added ignore and debug commands, debug won't do an aweful lot
as of yet though.
-variable.c figured I should add some more color support, so added a way
to format tintin color names, using #format %c {name}
-variable.c #format again, %h will create a tintin header line
-variable.c fixed how variable assignment was being dealt with in triggers,
can now change and display variables correctly on the fly.
-rlhist.c changed command repeation behavior.
-rlhist.c removed the history command, no longer needed to look up the
index, just a working short memory.
-config.c added repeat on enter option in config
-parse.c the command part of a line received by parse input
has vars and functions substituted right away.
If passing a command to another session the functions and
variables are substituted as well, setting the values of
the controlling session.
-math.c Added the tintoi and tincmp functions, which are enhanced
versions of atoi and strcmp.
net.c Added some code to stop enters being written to the scrollback
buffer, useful for people using #cr to bust a prompt.
rl.c Got rid of the prompt saving stuff, now using brute force,
refresh the prompt everytime the screen is updated. This to
work around a bug in readline that gives odd behavior with
cursor movement.
March 2004 1.89.0
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- math.c Added a close to complete mathematical expression routine.
Needs some work still but it works. Also allows for comparing
strings <= >= == != if you enclose the strings in " ". It's
quite a bit better than the old one, though it's not supporting
T, F, and '!' since it's string based, shouldn't be too hard
adding some better string support.
- ivars.c stripped all the stuff that is now covered by math.c or
variables.c only leaving #ifexits. And then it occured to me
that #if {"$variable" != "$*"} {true} {false} would
very well replace the 'ifexits' check. So ivars.c is no more.
- data.c deletenode_list now properly keeps track of a global update
node. Can only use one noderoot->update per program state.
- session.c cleanup_session now properly keeps track of a global update
node. Can only use one gtd->update per program state.
- rl.c fixed up the split screen behavior, should be a stable prompt
and correct text presentation in split mode now.
February 2004 1.88.0
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- net.c added telopt negotiations in net.c for naws, terminal type,
and mccp (version 2)
- tintin.h added the zlib library and a session buffer for mccp
- tintin.h added a 64KB output buffer, I'll just asume that the mud
output contains a linefeed before BUFFER_SIZE is reached. This
should make output processing a bit smoother, and saves me
from fiddling too much with chopped up data.
- rl.c added the tintin_printf and tintin_printf2 functions which
format the argument list and pass the data on to tintin_puts
or tintin_puts2
- tintin.h changed the node list struct to work with a head/tail pointer,
and turned it into a double linked list, updated all .c files
affected by this change.
- *.c cleaned up the code, using tabs instead of spaces and aligning
the brackets.
- main.c switched from rand to rand48, it's seeded once upon startup
which is sufficient.
- main.c added a global tintin session (gts) the idea is to get rid of
most global variables.
- tintin.h added a bitvector to the session structure which will contain
all session flags, various changes throughout the code changing
global variables into flags.
- rl.c fixed up the cursor positioning for split mode and fixed the
linewrap routine which was off by 1 character, resulting in
extra lines on a perfect match.
added a special flag for mud output for split mode, to avoid
color loss when restoring the cursor (which also restores the
cursor color, hence the color loss)
- tables.c new c file, which will contain some tables, the current setup
is a bit tedious.
- tintin.h moved all header files into tintin.h cause the old setup with
40 headerfiles was giving me a headache (literally).
Grouped it into typedefs, globals, constants, macros,
structures and functions
- tintin.h changed all commands to use the COMMAND typedef, as well as
all commands now use universal arguments and naming, this to
make a command table.
- *.c There's always a session now, with a few checks for gts (global
tintin session) which cannot send or receive data. Passing
session data along with a couple of functions which should
make background sessions less spammy.
- strhash.c Added a simple string hash routines which I'll be using for a
scroll back buffer. It uses a bit of memory, but should save a
lot more for big scroll back buffers.
- main.c changed tstphandler to call kill with a null pid, otherwise it
wouldn't work when tintin was started from a script
- ivars.c removed backwards compatibility for fixedmath
- buffer.c scroll back buffer and a grep command added
- rl.c made the init_readline function actually initilize readline,
added 4 default keybinds for the scrollback buffer.
- tintin.h added a keymap to the tintin_data structure, which will be
used for keybinding.
- text.c got rid of the linewrapper in rl.c and added a word wrap
routine instead.
- log.c all vt102 codes cept the linefeed are stripped for logged data,
the lowlog thingie can still be used.
- chat.c Removed this entirely, it's a mess and there are many stand
alone p2p chat programs available.
- *.c moved some more global data to the session and data structures
- rltick.c removed entirely
- ticks.c removed entirely
- tick.c wrote a new ticker from scratch, uses alarm(1) to sleep 1
second, the user can now define a list of tickers, pretty much
like aliasses, they'll trigger when the timer expires. Added
the 'tick' and 'untick' command for manipulation.
- macro.c added 'macro' and 'unmacro' commands for keybinding, I couldn't
figure out how to actually undo the real macro's though
without using a messy hack, so I just skipped that till later
for now.
- session.c Got rid of the zombi code, will try to add a better connection
handler at a later data, but the zombi code is not the answer.
- tintin.h Changed architecture further turning the lists from individual
lists into an array of lists. Added an array in tables.c for
additional data.
- substitute.c Changed the default #gag char from '.' to character 255, this
to prevent weird behavior when a dot is displayed on an empty
line for any kind of reason.
- config.c Added a configuration menu, defaults are loaded upon startup.
- walk.c Removed, didn't really look into it deeply, but I adjusted
path.c to allow user progged walking using a ticker.
- parse.c Added 2 action checkers, first one checks priority 0 to 4,
after that substitutions are checked, priority 5 to 9 is
checked after substitutions.
- parse.c do_one_line now strips colors per default before passing the
text on to check_one_action
- action.c rewrote the %0 - %9 check_one_action regexp routine, it's
a bit cleaner and slightly faster now.
- action.c rewrote substitute_vars, ';' is changed to : per default
- variable.c rewrote subsitute_myvariables, no longer supporting $number
variables. ';' is stripped per default. This also easily
allows a change so variables can contain numbers.
- variable.c #format {variable} {format} {arguments}
This allows string formatting, numbers are not supported.
Added a format parser for further functionality, for now %l
will lowercase, %u will upper, and %r will reverse the
argument given. There's a maximum of 10 arguments.
- variable.c Due to the format command, prepad, postpad, tolower, and
toupper are no longer required, so I removed the commands.
I realise this generates a backward compatibility issue, but
it's easier to find the new commands without 70 old commands
spamming the help files and command lists.
- split.c moved the split screen stuff from rl.c to this new file, and
placed the prompt commands/routines there as well.
