Please let me know in the XanaNews support forum om the forums.talkto.net server Version 1.15.2.4 29/05/2003 * Default message base location moved. Previously the message base was stored in subdirectories relative to the location of the program file. For new users it is stored in the local application data directory. This change means that each user of your computer can use XanaNews independently of each other - without seeing each other's messages. I have incorporated a wizard for existing users. When you start this version of XanaNews you will be asked if you want to move the message base to the new location. Although it's optional, I strongly recommend that you click 'Yes' to move the message base! If you click 'Yes' the following happens: 1. The subdirectories for all accounts get moved to the new location 2. The 'Archive' subdirectory gets moved. 3. The 'Mail' subdirectory gets moved. 4. Sig files for each identity get moved. 5. Bookmark files get moved. I have deliberately used the 'local app data' directory rather than the 'app data' directory so that your entire messagebase doesn't get transferred in your roaming profile. It's typically too big to make make this worthwhile. The new location is now typically: c:\Documents and Settings\ \ Local Settings\ Application Data\ Woozle\ XanaNews It may be in a different location on non-English versions of Windows. * Reentrancy bug fixed in HTML message display. This could cause access violations. * Focus set to the 'subscribed groups' tree at startup. * Bug fixed where illegal file names were generated for search results bookmarks on non-english systems.

This contains some options that were previously incorrectly displayed on the 'message tree' tab. * Experimental 'Change Subject' option moved to the Test menu.

It's still far from perfect, but I discovered how to prevent it running scripts, Java, etc. It now shows inline images, background wallpaper etc. in Outlook Express messages. Because I didn't get the right-click menu to work correctly I left it so that it still displays the images separately at the end, too. so you can right-click on these. * The Queued Requests pane background colour now gets set to match the Subscribed groups tree. * Bug fixed where double-clicking on dummy messages (ones with article no of 0) could corrupt the message base. * Fixed bug in Search to bookmark where each found message was displayed in turn, slowing things down and making it look flickery * Fixed status bar flicker problem (thanks to Leonel) * Fixed bug where MIME messages with NNTP-style inline UUEncoded attachments were not decoded correctly if there was no preamble text. * Fixed bug where the green 'new groups' indicators could appear round a server icon incorrectly (thanks to Leonel) Version 1.15.2.1 13/05/2003 * Bookmarks added. Press Ctrl+B or select 'Show Bookmark Pane' from the View menu. Once the bookmark pane is showing. - Drag articles into the bookmark pane, or press the 'Add Article to Bookmark Set' toolbar button to add them to the current bookmark set. - You can have articles from different groups or even different accounts in the same bookmark set. - When you select an article in the bokmark pane, xananews automatically selects the correct account and group and displays the bookmarked message - Other buttons on the toolbar remove articles from the current bookmark set, delete the current bookmark set, and create a new bookmark set. - There's a new 'Search to Bookmark' checkbox on the Search dialog. If this is checked, the first 200 matching articles are added to a bookmark. Subsequent clicks on the Find buton added the next 200 articles. * Bug fixed where cancelled messages weren't purged. * New 'Reverse Selected Text' option. * 'Copy' button on newsgroup list dialog copies selected group names to clipboard. * Speeded up newsgroup list dialog even more.

Click it again on an article by the same author to quickly remove them from the Bozo Bin. - Articles you've already downloaded from the Bozo will then be displayed with a 'Bozo' goofy-face symbol next to them. (Well as goofy faced as you can get with a 16x16 bitmap!) - New articles by the Bozo will not be downloaded. - Select 'Bozo Bin' from the Tools menu to enter the Bozo Bin Management dialog, where you can add, delete or change Bozo details. * Version added to the title-bar. Version 1.14.3.10 05/05/2003 * The wizard that new XanaNews experienced was broken. Now fixed. Version 1.14.3.9 05/05/2003 * AV in Virtual Tree DoValidateCache fixed. * Problem where the message pane shows only the signature on some systems fixed. * AV when clicking news:// links fixed * Problem where searching, filtering, etc. didn't work on messages with a MIME header fixed. Version 1.14.3.8 03/05/2003 * Batch selector combo on start menu. * Finally removed the 'Crash' button from the toolbar. It's now in Tools/Test * Speeded up 'Show Newsgroup List' dialog. Also it now shows the total number of groups in an accound and how many you're subscribed to. * Now uses the latest (beta) version of madExcept. * Identities now support a 'sigfile'.
