It took a while longer than expected to get 7.1.4 together. This was *almost* going to be a release based fully on patches submitted by the user base - something that I thought was very cool. But then I started adding some new features as well (based on suggestions from some of you). Hopefully you think it was worth the wait. The man pages have been updated to explain the new options and config file syntax. Patches for man pages to add details or explain things clearly are always welcome! :-) version 7.1.4 (Jan 21, 2002): - console -[PqQ] didn't work - patch by Han Pilmeyer <han@zk3.dec.com> - maxfiles() didn't check FD_SETSIZE - patch by Justin Grudzien <grudzien@31337.com> - New -o and -O server flags for automatically reconnecting downed consoles - patch by Benn Oshrin <benno@columbia.edu> - Automatic reconnection of consoles on read failures, retried every minute - Up to nine break sequences can be defined in the configuration file and assigned to consoles individually, accessed via new ^ecl[?0-9] escape sequences - console logs are marked with "up" and "down" timestamps The following based on code by John R. Jackson <jrj@cc.purdue.edu> - sequential timestamps merged into one range during playback - timestamps done on "nice" boundaries (hour, minute, etc.) - lots of code cleanup, optimizations, etc. Bryan Stansell
