A-Shell 6.5 Development Notes

1739.1.1

Fix

TRACKER bug fix (affecting SWPSBR, MSBOXX, and TCRTs 202-203) - the reverse video attribute created by TAB(-1,32) was not being properly saved in the screen map when using a 'mode' emulation (like am75g) under Linux.

1739.1.2

Fix

Status line display:  bug fix: the top 2 pixels of the system status line messages were being clipped.

1739.1.3

EIR

WEBCACHE / http image: the system status line now displays the URL of any files being downloaded either automatically due to WEBCACHE or due to an explicit http:// or https:// filespec.

1739.0.1

EIR

FOREACH: if the specified starting key is not found, the iteration now starts with the next key. Previously, the result would have been an empty iteration.

1739.0.2

EIR

FOREACH'REVERSE: the starting key is now recognized; previously it was ignored. And as with FOREACH, if not found, the iteration starts with the next key—i.e. the next one lower in the collating sequence.

1739.0.3

New

Add convenience operator for assigning elements from a CSV-formatted string to an array in a single operation.

1739.0.4

EIR

WEBCACHE: switch internal implementation for https:// addresses to use {lib}ashnet instead of {lib}ashtls.

1739.0.5

EIR

Web / Image: XTREE and AUI_IMAGE now support loading loading images from a web server using an http:// or https:// specification, either directly, or via WEBCACHE (with OPENI and LOOKUP enabled). In the non-WEBCACHE XTREE case, most likely you would want to set ImgDir to the http:// or https:// directory location where the images are, and then just pass the image name.ext in th individual cells.

Note that even when WEBCACHE is not enabled, images pulled down from the web will be cached in the local %MIAME%\webcache directory.

1739.0.6

EIR

CSV2XL.SBX 2.1(286): SetBanner now supports the fontname and fontsize attributes, e.g.:

//XL,SetBanner,text="This is a Banner",fontheight=20,fontname=Broadway
