HYLAFAX CHANGE INFORMATION
This document describes the changes made to the software between the
previous and current versions (see above).
If you don't find something listed here, then it was not done in this
timeframe, or it was not considered important enough to be mentioned.
The following information is located here:
GENERAL CHANGES:
- a new file COPYRIGHT has been added for inclusion in
   binary distributions
CHANGES IN THE SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION:
- -Dsco is now correctly set for compilation on SCO
- bash versions prior to 1.14 are not accepted for
    SCRIPT_SH because they contain bugs that cause some shell scripts
    to not function correctly
- _PATH_DEV is defined if not found in <paths.h>
CHANGES IN THE MODEM CONFIG FILES:
- a new file was added for ZyXEL modems operating in Class 1
   (as supported in firmware revision 6.14 and later)
- prototype config files were updated to use the new parameters:
   Class1HFLOCmd, Class1SFLOCmd, Class1NFLOCmd
   Class2HFLOCmd, Class2SFLOCmd, Class2NFLOCmd
- syntax errors were corrected in the Telebit T3000 and WorldBlazer files
CHANGES TO FAXQ:
- the kill time for a job is now adjusted to take into account delays
   introduced by time-of-day restrictions
- the initialization of the TimeOfDay configuration parameter
   has been corrected
- the ps2fax script invoked to rasterize PostScript is now
   executed directly (an intermediate shell used to be used)
- a bug was fixed where output from ps2fax was not being
   properly written to the job request file; this should correct the
   problem where output from failed PostScript conversions was not
   being returned in the notification message
CHANGES TO FAXSEND:
- when a modem is set into Class 1, 2, or 2.0 the drivers now
   send a configurable command to force setup of the current
   flow control scheme; see
   Class1NFLOCmd, Class1SFLOCmd, Class1HFLOCmd,
   Class2NFLOCmd, Class2SFLOCmd, Class2HFLOCmd
CHANGES TO FAXGETTY:
- the Class 1 driver now recognizes
    "CONNECT ...something..." to mean
    a data connection was established; this is useful for Class 1 modems
    that support adaptive answer
- a bug that caused core dumps after a data connection has been fixed
- the tty device mode and ownership are now properly restored after
    getty exits
CHANGES TO PAGESEND:
- multi-line text messages no longer have newline characters
    converted to carriage returns
- some tracing messages have been added to catch all
    protocol state transitions
CHANGES TO FAXADDMODEM:
- the entry in inetd.conf is now checked to
   make sure faxd.recv is run by the proper user
- several operations have been significantly sped up
- the consistency checking of the scheduler configuration file was corrected
- new configuration files are now created using a scheme that
   insures existing data will not be lost if a filesystem is full
- configuration files are not updated unless something has changed
CHANGES TO FAX2PS:
- uses an entirely new algorithm contributed by Bret Whissel; this
   new scheme generates more compact PostScript that should execute
   faster and with fewer imaging artifacts
CHANGES TO FAXALTER:
- a bug was fixed that made it impossible to alter
    a job's scheduling priority
CHANGES IN THE HTML MATERIALS:
- make clean now works correctly
- a problem compiling man2html on some systems was corrected
CHANGES IN THE MANUAL PAGES:
- a construct that confused groff has been changed
