v0.7.17 1999-10-09 Timo Sirainen <cras@irccrew.org> [unstable]
+ Irssi text widget! (replaces zvt)
- supports proportional fonts
- FAST
- background pixmaps (scaled, tiled, scrollable, shaded)
+ Proxy plugin - Unlike other irc proxies, this is more than just a
simple proxy. You can connect to it from multiple clients at the
same time, but each client will use the _same_ irc session, so you
can keep one irc client open all the time in your home, one at
work, one at wc, etc. All the clients get the same "normal"
messages from server, but if you request a /whois or /who or some
other commands, the reply will be sent to only the client that
requested it. Check README how to use it.
+ Irssi is now much faster catching up things after joined to
channel, it asks channels' MODE and WHO first, all with the same
command (WHO #a,#b,#c), after them it asks the ban lists etc. less
important things.
+ Workaround for GTK themes eating X server's memory
+ Command line arguments:
-c server [-p port] : connects to server at startup
-! : don't autoconnect to any servers
-n : specify nick to use (override setup)
+ Server lag displayed in statusbar, you can also set irssi to
automatically disconnect from server if it is too lagged
+ Channel limit and key is displayed above nicklist
+ Number of ops and total number of nicks in channel is displayed
+ Nicklist background color can be changed
+ Each window can have it's own command history buffer
+ Try to let the server disconnect the socket (5 sec timeout) to make
sure that quit message gets through.
+ Improved /gwhois dialog
+ Setup dialogs are resizeable
+ You can specify what port to use with DCC.
- Channel dialog fixes: after editing channel, it was moved to the
end of the list, opening multiple channels edit dialogs didn't
work right
- Reconnecting to server didn't work (always)
- Giving multiple nicks for /gwhois messed up irssi
v0.7.16 1999-09-13 Timo Sirainen <cras@irccrew.org> [unstable]
+ Started bot plugin, it has simple user management functions and
auto-opping/voicing done (but it does it well :)
+ "channel synced" text doesn't trigger channel activity anymore
+ Rawlog displays where event was redirected
+ /wjoin - you can join multiple channels in same window
+ /window goto #channel - moves you to window with the
channel, query or dcc chat
+ /window goto active - moves you to first window with activity
+ /list and /names complains if they're run without any arguments,
-YES overrides this
+ Giving -nogui parameter to /list and /who commands doesn't use the
GUI dialog
+ All the dialogs that have clist widget: you can resize columns and
sort the list by clicking the headers
+ /list and /who dialogs displays total number of items and the list
is searchable
+ Autojoining to channels work with irssi-text too
+ /gwhois dialog has now refresh button, /gwhois is used when clicking
whois from nicklist popup menu
- Restoring saved window size didn't work very accurately, restoring
position also had some problems..
- Rawlog doesn't crash anymore if not connected to server
- Notifylist and checking of who uses your nick uses WHOIS again,
WHO didn't display user info unless s/he was -i or in same
channels..
- You had to run /list a couple of times until it worked..
- WHO was sent to people who joined channel to find out who they
were, unfortunately it had a small bug and didn't work..
- DCC didn't work with IPv6
v0.7.15-3 1999-08-31 Timo Sirainen <cras@irccrew.org> [unstable]
* _TOO_ many bugs in .15, mostly compilation problems, I really
should test things better when I release them. This will be the
last time, I swear :)
+ Rawlog window, /rawlog <file name> also saves it.
+ --without-imlib configure switch
- After opened themes dialog, "(none)" window appeared, after opening
it, irssi crashed.
- "day changed" message was displayed at startup
- Addresses in DCC connections were displayed wrong
- Didn't compile without gnome
- The first .15 didn't compile without IPv6 support, -2 fixed it
v0.7.15 1999-08-29 Timo Sirainen <cras@irccrew.org> [unstable]
* Only week since last version, much better :) Lots of internal
changes, hope they work right. No "weird crashes" found since last
version, 0.8.0 can't be too far away :)
CVS is also working again, no anonymous but I can give access if
someone wants.
+ IPv6 support - yet another thing irssi is one of the first to
support ;) Give --enable-ipv6 switch to configure to compile it.
Because of IPv6 addresses naming style (xxx:xxx:xxx..), /server
server:port doesn't work anymore, you have to use /server
server port instead.
+ Sound plugin updates, should work much better
+ Default config file is build into irssi, it's used if no other
configuration file is found
+ Implemented "idle queue", list of commands which should be sent to
server when there's nothing else to send.. Changed CTCPs to use
this.
+ "massjoin" signal is sent when people join to channel, if many
people join to channel quickly (netjoins), it waits for a while
before everyone are joined and then sends the signal. This is used
to update nicklist more quickly and some other internal stuff.
+ /msg <tab> completion: after you send msg to someone, the nick will
go first in completion list.
+ Giving --with-servertest to configure now builds test irc server
which you can use to try crash irc clients :)
+ /sv displays system name and revision and irssi's website url
+ You can give server password to /server as /server server port pass
+ /unban completion, eg. /unban *!*@*.de unbans *!*@hu232hu2.blah.de
+ /rmreconns removes all servers from reconnect list. I hate it when
some server is down and irssi tries to reconnect it every 5 minutes
and there was no way to cancel it..
+ Displays day change message in all windows if you're using
timestamps
+ Realname is displayed in statusbar when mouse is moved over nick
in nicklist
+ /last displays the last buffer only from the current window
+ option: beep when you receive private message
+ Typing /dcc without any arguments is same as /dcc list
+ Some code rearranging, moved more code to ui-common from gui-xxx
+ IPv6 for /ban, it bans all the last 64k addresses .. not sure if
it's THAT good idea but did it anyway.
- DCC resume was broken.
- If someone quit from one ircnet but stayed on another, the nick was
removed from both ircnets' channels.
- Irssi tried to find it's default config from
$prefix/etc/irssi/irssi/config (one irssi too much :)
- You couldn't use ~/ when saving window buffer
- Trying to save window buffer twice crashed irssi
- ZVT transparency couldn't be removed on the fly
- Using find/new/close buttons in toolbar crashed
- Doesn't complain anymore about "You're not channel operator" with
some irc networks that don't understand e or I modes
- /ban removed ident-character from username (~blah@ -> blah@) so bans
didn't work..
- /knockout calculated the time left wrongly.
- irssi added -I/usr/include to compile parameters which broke
compiling with several platforms..
- Irssibot notified about new development version when there was none
- Some problems/crashes fixed with plugin support
- --without-socks didn't do anything..
- Password should first be sent to server first, not after nick/user.
At least MUH (irc proxy) didn't like it.
v0.7.14 1999-08-22 Timo Sirainen <cras@irccrew.org> [unstable]
!!! My E-mail changed to cras@irccrew.org, don't use the old one
!!! anymore!
* Hm.. Again a month since last version, 3 weeks should be max :)
Hopefully this one will be bugfree, so I could finally release a
"stable" version.. (somehow I think I'll end up with 0.7.14-2
anyway.. ;)
* Irssi uses now libPropList to read and save configuration file, so
you need to have libPropList installed, it's also in different
format so your old config file doesn't work anymore.
Configuration file is located now in ~/.irssi/config file.
Themes are also now stored in separate files in ~/.irssi/*.theme
+ Irssi can now notify you about new versions, you can also directly
download them with DCC. (This will probably be changed to HTTP
instead of using irssibot in IRC..)
+ User interface changes (settings, menus) as suggested by
James M. Cape <jcape@jcinteractive.com>
+ You can use ctrl-b,c,g,v,- when setting realname
+ /version [server] - prints irssi version and irc server's version
+ /ver [nick/channel] - sends ctcp version to nick/channel
+ /sv [nick/channel] - sends irssi version text to nick/channel
+ Added widget depends to several places, changed several modal
dialogs to use gui_widget_depends() instead
+ Added Socks5 initialization, maybe it works now?
+ You can specify what host address you want to use if you have many..
+ Away and kick reason dialog have history
+ irssi-text option: activity list can be sorted by window number
You can change this with /set toggle_actlist_moves=yes/no
+ /msg <text><tab> completes now people in current channel too
+ You can set channel password in channel dialog
+ /SET [key [=value / [key [key..]] - /SET displays all settings,
/set key key2 displays values of key and key2, /set key=value sets
key to value.
+ DCC GET now gets all the files coming from user if file name isn't
specified. DCC CLOSE also can close all dcc connections from user.
+ The whole usermode is now displayed in statusbar, it used to display
only the modes it knew (+iwsr)
+ Ctrl-N and Ctrl-P go to next/previous window
- When using zvt and joining to new channels, window size grew bigger
- /msg <tab> completion was a bit buggy, if someone sent you multiple
messages, you had to press tab multiple times until the nick changed
to someone else..
- Defaut format for signon time in whois displayed nick instead of
the signon time..
- Disconnecting server while it was still trying to connect hung irssi
- If old configuration file wasn't found, irssi (could have?) crashed
on startup .. Could this really happen?!? Why did nobody tell me??
- irssi-text finally handles screen resizing right
- Gnome panel applet works with "old" (like non-cvs now :) panels
too.
- If you left from channel before syncing was done, syncing stopped
working after it..
- Removing ban exceptions didn't update irssi's internal list
- Rejecting dcc chat didn't work properly, when receiving reject
get/send irssi didn't remove it from dcc lists
- Save/find dialogs weren't working after being closed.
- irssi-text complained about "Not enough parameters given" when
pressing entry in empty line
- Mirc colors weren't removed properly for logs and could have
crashed irssi
- Using /ban with mask (x!x@x) instead of nick crashed
- gui_widget_depends() wasn't working properly - didn't harm much :)
v0.7.13-2 1999-07-22 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi> [unstable]
* Again, a small bugfix release
+ You can specify what string to send to IRC proxy after connected,
this lets at least some proxies work with irssi.
+ Notifylist now displays which irc network nick joined/left (or if
unknown, just IRC)
- After closing some window, the numbers in window tabs didn't get
updated
- /window next and prev didn't work properly
- status/msgs windows got destroyed a while after joining to channel..
or simply by doing "/mode (status)" command ..
- We don't try to DCC SEND file via dcc chat if the other side is
using mirc ctcps.
- Default setting or autodetection of mirc ctcps weren't working.
- Actions from mirc users in dcc chat was displayed in double.
v0.7.13 1999-07-21 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi> [unstable]
* %p in text formats is changed to $, looks much cleaner :) Old
formats in configuration files are automatically converted.
* I got some documentation done! :) I wrote a list of all commands
irssi knows with (very) short descriptions, see COMMANDS file
+ Hebrew support by Ronen Tzur <rtzur@shani.net> - see README-HEBREW
+ Users with gone-flag are displayed with different color in nicklist
List is updated with USERHOST commands in small pieces every now and
then..
+ Statusbar with some information in it ..
+ Away message is displayed differently in /whois and /msged people
who's gone
+ /window goto <n>, /window prev, /window next
+ /window level [+/-]pub/msgs/...
/window level msgs - creates messages window
/window level all -msgs - creates status window
+ /bantype <normal/host/domain/custom>
- Normal - *!user@*.domain.net
- Host - *!*@host.domain.net
- Domain - *!*@*.domain.net
- Custom [nick] [user] [host] [domain]
eg. /bantype custom nick domain - nick!*@*.domain.net
eg. /bantype custom user host - *!user@host.domain.net
+ /version - just displays version number..
+ You can use different font in each channel
+ Alt-q..o changes channels to 11..19
+ Color configuration changes..
+ irssi-text : Reading manuals help ;) Text's backgound color isn't
changed to black anymore so pixmaps etc. should show up nicely :)
+ /notify nick!mask@* [ircnets], /unnotify
+ When trying to connect to server, you can abort it with the
cancel button in statusbar
+ First parameter of /disconnect is now * (current server) or
server tag
+ You can now use !channels with their short names (not always)
+ Right clicking nick in channel pops up nicklist menu
+ You can select multiple nicks from nicklist and execute the command
for all of them.
+ Panel applet supports panel size changes
+ Window tabs have numbers now
+ Ctrl-N changes to next window, Ctrl-P changes to previous window
- Max. autoget size didn't work right, it got the file if the file was
bigger than the max. size.. and it was compared as bytes, not kB's.
- Panel applet should now work right
- Hilight words feature was completely broken
- DCC Chats were displayed twice in status dialog
- Closing DCC chat still had a few problems
- After trying to join to channel where you could get in (invite only,
banned, etc.) the created channel window wasn't destroyed.
- configure didn't check -lnsl right..
- Channel settings weren't read in the correct order -> autojoining
to channels created the windows in reverse order every time.
- ZVT in GNOME CVS broke irssi.. Fixed.
- Quit message wasn't displayed if there was some commands waiting
for transmit - quit was added to transmit queue and connection
closed..
- Matching irc masks (nick!host@address) was case-sensitive..
v0.7.12 1999-07-06 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi> [unstable]
* #irssi is now started in IRCnet
* Release #2 :) The next day..
+ configure checks for -lnsl too
+ changed default font to fixed size so I wouldn't have to hear all
the time how screen is messed up with zvt :)
- background color couldn't be changed with zvt
- irssi-text sometimes crashed at startup because of uninitialized
variable..
- you had to use --without-gnome-panel even if you didn't build
fwith gnome
+ Colorless theme, should be easy to start a new theme with using
this. You need to copy the [theme:colorless] section to
~/.irssi.conf (or ~/.gnome/irssi whatever you happen to use..) from
included irssi.conf to use this..
+ You can DCC send and get files via DCC chat (don't need to be
connected to server), don't know if this works with any other client
or if any other client has this ability.. BitchX didn't seem to
have.
+ /WALL [#channel] message - Send notice to all ops in channel
+ /last [-pub -msgs etc..] <text> for text mode version
+ Text mode version statusbar: -- more --, away (zZzZ)
+ The "-!-" and "-!- Irssi:" texts and timestamp is now configurable
+ Channel windows aren't destroyed anymore after getting disconnected
+ /window close
+ Outgoing flood protection: all commands you send to server are are
queued and sent every 2 seconds. (if queue is empty, the command is
sent immediately)
+ Notify list popup dialogs are now optional
+ /unalias (you could already do this with /alias)
+ You can send Mirc style CTCPs now in DCC chat (preferences/dcc),
also if mirc user first sends ctcp, it's automatically set to
default for that dcc chat session.. You can also set it with
/mircdcc [y|n] or select from menu.
+ Default color number in setup, this color is used if nothing else
is specified.
+ Server reconnection - you can add several irc servers to setup with
same ircnet and autoconnect set and irssi goes through that list
every time server gets disconnected unintentionally.
+ irssi-text word splits the lines. also if it needs to split the line
it leaves 10 empty spaces at the start of the next line.
+ --without-gnome-panel switch to configure
- http://blah@a.b opened e-mail client instead of http client
- I set the socket non-blocking AFTER connect(), argh! This caused
irssi to hang when trying to dcc get from bogus IPs or something.
- Background color wasn't read right
- Log dialog had some bugs
- Banning ip addresses didn't work right
- Some DCC problems fixed..
- Some irssi-text bugs fixed
v0.7.11 1999-06-06 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi> [unstable]
* Because of the color system changes, remove the [colors]
section from irssi's configuration file or you will get some weird
colors..
The colors are pretty much taken from BitchX, IMO it looks nice :)
But somehow I think many of you don't like it, so I made theme
selector. Just need to make a few default themes..
+ Color system changed, the old one looked pretty ugly especially in
text mode version.. You can now have more than one color/line by
adding %fg[,bg] codes to text formats.. fg and bg are the normal
0-15 colors, in GUI version (without ZVT) you can use up to 99
user specified colors.
+ Theme selector
+ Text mode version: Entry line editing is working great! Command line
history works, scrollback buffer works, statusbar is working (again,
copying bitchx..), reads configuration file .. This is starting to
become usable :)
+ ZVT working better: font can be changed, transparency and background
pixmap can be changed on the fly, the ugly block cursor isn't
displayed anymore and wordclicking (urls, etc.) works.
+ New GUI dialogs for /list, /who, /gwhois and when receiving invites
to channels.
+ Channels dialog changed a bit. New "Quick join" dialog where you can
specify server and channel to join
+ Mirc DCC resumes are working. By Trever Adams
(trever_adams@bigfoot.com)
+ List of text strings to hilight
+ Notify dialog is created when someone in notify list joins irc.
+ Nick completion improvements, /msg nick<tab> works and in channels
you can complete nicks anywhere in the entry.
+ Window save size/position dialog
+ DCC send added to popup menus
+ Removing lines from GtkText is really slow, so now they're removed
with several lines at a time. (default is 20)
+ /window new [hidden] creates new window, /window server <server tag>
changes server in current channel, useful in text mode version..
+ You can try to find memory leaks with giving --with-memdebug switch
to configure
- Still some bugs with DCC SEND fixed..
- DCC list dialog crashed if there were dcc chats open, it also caused
some random crashes when running..
- Maybe window size/position saving finally works right?
- g_(s)list_remove_link() didn't work as I had always thought .. It
moves the link into separate list and doesn't free memory used by
it like I thought.. So, inserted a few g_list_free_1() calls.
- When not using menubars, popup menu should have displayed all the
items in it, it got broken in .10.
- signal_add_after() didn't work right.. actually it had a wrong name
too, changed to signal_add_first() and made it to run these events
before the normal events. This makes ignoring work again.
- /notice was buggy
- Configuration file handling (GTK version) was still a bit buggy..
- Lots of small bug fixes here and there..
v0.7.10 1999-05-09 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi> [unstable]
* ALL KNOWN CRASHES FIXED !! Weird, after changing the code with
creating channels to empty windows, GtkText widget started working
again, it used to crash after running the test ircserver for a
while.. Maybe a few more versions and I'll release a "stable"
labeled version again (08.0).
+ GNOME version can use ZVT widget to draw texts. This is a lot faster
than GtkText and with it you can use nice non-scrolling backgrounds
and transparency! However, you'll have to use the default colors
with it for now and Window/Save Buffer or Find doesn't work in it.
!!NOTE!! ZVT in gnome 1.0.9 is buggy, it sometimes crashes when
destroying zvt widget (leaving channels). It should be fixed in next
version (which doesn't currently exist..)
+ DCC transfer dialog, display list of all going dcc transfers, the
old dialogs can also be created.
+ Channel specific background pixmaps, if you don't have Imlib you can
use only .xpm images.
+ /ban and /unban changed, they accept multiple arguments and channel
name may be specified as the first argument
+ dcc actions from mirc should work now
- Text widget size is now saved instead of the window's size, should
work better.
- Right clicking text widget created a popup menu, but select
selection got broken after it
- Some potential bugs fixed after got kicked from channel
- Log dialog was buggy
- If dcc chat was closed but the query window was still there, trying
to chat again with the same nick created another query window but
used the old one..
- C-C, C-B, etc. add the character at the end of the entry, not at the
current position
- Redirecting commands was a bit buggy, it always expected to receive
the specified events. This worked with ISON command, but I forgot
that WHOIS could also return "no such nick" events.. So, notifylist
should now work right instead of sometimes printing whois results.
- You couldn't use the normal control-? keys (c-left, c-right,
c-insert, ..)
- mirc colors were displayed with wrong colors
- Changed all isspace(), isdigit() and isalnum() calls to cast their
argument as (gint) to remove warnings when compiling with IRIX.
- Speech plugin wasn't working again..
- After changing text format from setup, you couldn't change any
other lines without closing setup dialog first
- Font couldn't be changed by editing the entry line
- /knockout format changed, it's now /knockout [timeout] nick reason
(so the reason can have number at the start of it..), it also used
to crash when unbanning
- DCC send fixed, fast send didn't work and without it it was eating
all cpu.
- DCC sending files with spaces in their name didn't work (they're
changed to _ now.)
v0.7.9 1999-04-22 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi> [unstable]
+ Server/status dialog, displays list of all connected servers,
channels, queries and dcc chats.
+ Host resolving is now done in a child processes. Hopefully works
better than threads which aren't used anywhere anymore..
+ Window/Save window size and Save window position, next time the same
window (status, msgs, channel, query) is opened the saved size
and/or position will be used.
+ gui_widget_depends_data(), widget will be automatically destroyed
if the specified signal is called with the specified argument. Used
to destroy DCC request dialogs when they're closed manually, timed
out or rejected at the other end..
- Fixed lots of memory leaks which some might have caused crashes..
src/memdebug.c has the debug functions I used ..
- DCC CLOSE closed always the last dcc connection instead of the one
that matched the parameters
- Commented out all GUI_INPUT_EXCEPTIONs .. I don't even know when
exceptions are sent and why (I thought that only when some error
occured..), Linux doesn't seem to send them ever? IRIX however sends
them all the time which made irssi eating all cpu.
- Fixed compiling gui-text with systems that had only slang/slang.h
- gui_widget_depends() had some bugs
- adding irc networks by typing it's name when adding server didn't
update the GUI of ircnets list.
- If some plugins were already loaded, and loading new plugin failed
and it called plugin_deinit(), the call (might have) called some
other plugin's plugin_deinit() and crash.. Some updated to change
all global plugin functions to plugin_name_* calls so they wouldn't
call other modules functions..
- If day changed when logging, the log file contained the day change
lines before each line after that..
- Channel labels were hilighted even when the channel was selected..
v0.7.8 1999-04-12 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi> [unstable]
* This version has lots of internal changes, I haven't tried them
much so hopefully everything works right..
+ external plugin, reads commands from named pipe and executes them
+ sample plugin updated, creating new plugins should when based on
this one
+ gui-none is built, it tries to run bot plugin which doesn't exist..
+ Moved the configuration code to the lowest level, made settings
to be common with all guis.
+ /set command: /set [category[/key[=value]]] [all]
+ /alias, /ignore and /unignore commands work again
+ Nick completion finally working, and better than ever (unless it
has bugs of course ;). It tries to be smart when completing, first
it checks if someone with same letters had recently written message
to you, then it checks for nicks that recently wrote messages and
finally for the rest of the nicks in channel. Clicking tab more
scans the list. Clicking tab in empty line completes to /msg <nick
who sent you last message>. Before trying to complete nicks, tab
completion checks if the word is in setup's completion list.
+ Wrote some functions to make possible handling events in different
places depending where the command which created the event was sent.
This is useful for example to notify list which needs to send ISON
requests but user should still be able to use /ison command
normally (this has always worked btw).
+ Notify list's notify event now displays user's host and real name
(made with the previous functions which grabbed WHOIS). Notify list
GUI also updated for this
+ You can use user/host masks with notify lists, wildcards are
allowed. Nick must always be specified (could be fixed but everyone
is invisible anyway so it would be useless). Examples:
friend!*friend*@*, friend_!*friend*@*,
another!*@*.blah.com, altnick!*@*.blah.com
+ "your nick is owned by blah (blah@blah.org)" when connected
+ Text formats page uses now GtkText widget, it displays colors too.
It's not perfect but better than before...
+ There's now three different colors indicating what's happened in
channel: red = some text was written there, bright red = public
message, magenta = public message to you
+ Ignore checking is now done by stopping the entire signal so
plugins etc. don't have to deal with them.
+ You can use user/host masks with ignores
+ Autoraise (in window menu) window when new message comes to channel
+ Channel settings: You can specify list of bots (masks) and command
to send the first one found bot (nice for auto-opping ourself)
- Changing user modes from menus didn't work. Moved the menu under
server menu.
- Speech plugin problems fixed.. It didn't compile without gnome
libraries and with gnome libraries it didn't say anything because
for some reason one line in sources was commented out..
- IRC network things and server password didn't work because of stupid
little bug
- Configuration file handling was a bit broken in GTK version
- Rewrote menu handling in GTK version, it was crashing when trying
to load plugins..
v0.7.7 1999-04-05 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi> [unstable]
+ speech plugin :) This is currently made to work with festival
(http://www.cstr.ed.ac.uk/projects/festival/), it's not very usable
but nice to play with :)
+ C-b (bold), C-c (color), C-g (bell), C-v (reverse), C-- (underline)
keys work now but they don't display anything in entry line.
+ Beel character beeps are now optional
+ Fixes and new features for plugins. Each plugin has now it's own
menu under plugin menu and "Unload" menuitem there by default.
- GTK version didn't build .. again..
- I broke DCC send in 0.7.5
- SIGPIPE is ignored, maybe fixes some "crashes" when server
connection is lost (I never got this btw.)
- Using irssi with click to focus sent commands to window where mouse
cursor was..
- Fixed some bugs when scrollback buffer got full (GTK's text widget
seems to crash sometimes with small scrollback buffer and _lots_ of
text!)
- Plugin dialog didn't show any plugins
- Plugins are now created with automake things to make them portable
for compilers/linkers that don't work with -shared switch. The
disadvantage is that a lot of unnecessary files are created for
each plugin (.a, .la, .so.0, .so.0.0, .so.0.0.0) while irssi uses
only libplugin.so, could be fixed somehow but too difficult for me..
- Joining to +k channel crashed
v0.7.6 1999-03-29 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi> [unstable]
* New default colors .. I think they're better, not the best possible
but anyway, I'm not good with these :)
+ Text mode version working again with colors! :)
+ New settings/servers dialog, changed connect and channels dialogs.
You can now automatically connect to multiple servers at startup.
All this made by Kari Lavikka (tuner@bdb.fi)
+ Server password support
+ IRC proxy support
+ Right clicking the channel name in panel pops up channel menu
+ private ctcp and notice messages now show up in query windows if
it exists for sender
- Fixed logging a bit, you can now log stuff from nicks without
having query window for them.
- If time stamps were enabled, log files had time stamps twice in each
line
- Color settings had some bugs
- GNOME version crashed if ~/.irssi.conf didn't exist .. because I
read the configuration file before gnome_init() which was necessary
for "create gnome panel applet" option in setup -> removed it
v0.7.5 1999-03-17 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi> [unstable]
* Text mode version is broken and isn't built.
* Configuration file has changed quite a lot, might be better if you
would just erase the old one.. Server configuration is also going
to change soon..
+ Plugins are back! But unfortunately I can't get perl plugin to work.
See TODO for more information.
+ I divided setup dialogs to separate windows and grouped the options
to different frames so they actually make some sense now :) Also
some new options:
- Create GNOME panel applet
- Lots of DCC options, the page looked so lonely that I had
to put more options there :)
- get: autorename file if it exists (currently this is
done always..)
- autoget: max. file size to get
- fast send (don't wait for responses from the other
side, just keep sending the data..)
- upload path
- block size
- timeout
+ Checks for slang/slang.h too ..
+ Text mode version doesn't have my name/nick hardcoded in it
anymore :) Uses IRCNAME and IRCNICK environment variables.
+ Status window is now optional, when enabled it grabs all
"status" messages there. This needed quite a lot of inner changes,
hopefully works :)
+ /nctcp - send ctcp reply
+ Window size is now saved when quitting and it's used when creating
windows in next session
- Fixed lots of GLib-CRITICAL messages when disconnected from server
while it was still trying to find ip address.
- Window/find should now scroll to right position and it doesn't
corrupt the text widget with inserting new texts to found texts
positions.. It's also case-insensitive now.
- Fixed compile error when building without gnome panel..
v0.7.4 1999-03-13 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi> [unstable]
+ Applet for GNOME panel working again
+ You don't have to specify --without-gnome anymore, configure checks
this for you (finally)
+ Some widget packing changes and tooltips for channel mode buttons
by Kari Lavikka <tuner@bdb.fi>
+ Window/find moves the scrollbar to position where you can
actually see the found text (usually, find prev misses it
sometimes..)
- Disconnect button in disconnect dialog still wasn't working.
- Channel mode buttons didn't change if channel wasn't focused
- I added separators to menus in v0.7.3, but forgot to make GTK
version work with them
- Closing DCC chat crashed
- Destroying window with WM now really destroys the window, no hide
it like it used to..
- Several fixes with window handling..
v0.7.3 1999-03-11 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi> [unstable]
* Text mode version is not called irssi-text so make install can
install both of them without overwriting the other..
+ Window menu: find text, save window buffer, close window, new,
new tabbed .. And lots of fixing code to make empty windows
possible.
+ After kicked from channel, the window isn't destroyed
- While connecting to server and receiving "nick is temporarily
unavailable" irssi didn't try different nick but got just stuck
there.
v0.7.2 1999-03-10 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi> [unstable]
+ GUI for logging, /log start, /log stop
+ You can drag file from GMC over to nick in nicklist to send the file
with DCC
+ Nicklist changed to GtkCList, ops and voices are marked with
pixmaps (stolen from X-Chat, someone want to do better ones?). Had
to be done because adding drag'n'drop to GtkList was too slow..
- Pretty bad bugs with GTK version fixed, using several dialogs'
buttons crashed..
- WHOIS's idle line displayed seconds wrong. Maybe I finally got it
fixed right this time.. :)
- Unknown commands still didn't work. They were sent to server with
the / character at start..
v0.7.1 1999-03-08 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi> [unstable]
* The 0.7.0 was actually quite stable, I thought it would crash all
the time by itself and do some weird things :)
* Hopefully now that GTK 1.2 is finished more people start using it
and don't ask me to continue supporting GTK 1.0. So, this version
requires GTK 1.1/1.2.
+ Started gui-text.. Should work somehow :) Prefers SLang but should
work with curses also, except in X terminals I couldn't get colors
out of it.
+ Logging, still lacks GUI.
Syntax:
/log create <filename> [<+/->level ...] [#channel/nick [
[<+/->level ...] ...]
/log close <filename>
/log list
Example: /log create mylog -all +msgs #linux +chan +public +notices
(or simply #linux +all logs everything that appears in #linux
window).
You can use these levels, ALL is set by default:
ALL, CRAP, PUBLIC, MSGS, NOTICES, WALLOPS, SNOTES, ACTIONS, DCC,
CTCP, CLIENTNOTICES, CLIENTERRORS
+ Automatically create query window when received msg (option)
+ No more "WHO: unknown commmand"s, all unknown commands are sent to
server just like they were written
+ Working again: msgs window, aliases, /kickban, /knockout
+ Changed quite a lot of GString's to g_strdup_printf
+ cleaned configure.in
- Disconnect button in disconnect dialog didn't work.
- Writing to DCC chat only sent the first word..
- setting ircnet to server record was done without strdup()ing from
setup server record, so after disconnecting preferences or
reconnecting could have crashed.
v0.7.0 1999-02-25 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi> [unstable]
* Lots and lots and LOTS of rewriting code. Hope you like it :) At
least I do, mostly. GUI still needs rewriting but.. well, it works
anyway now.
The [unstable] tag in this version really means that IT IS UNSTABLE.
See TODO for what features that 0.6.0 have are still missing.
Because of the new great signaling system :) lots of things can be
done easier. Now all the dialogs should be up to date, like channel
mode dialog. When you receive ops, widgets come sensitive, when you
lose your ops, the widgets become unsensitive.
irssi source is now also divided in to separate directories:
irc-base: this shouldn't change much, it has all basic functionality
needed to create a working IRC client.
irc-extra: all kinds of extra functionality: dcc, flood detection,
ignore lists, (logging soon), notify lists and plugins.
common-ui: here's all the functions that need to print some texts to
screen.
gui-gnome: GTK/GNOME specific code
These haven't been started yet:
ui-none: make irssi work as a bot with plugins/scripts
ui-text: text mode interface
gui-kde, ...: I'm not going to do these, anyone?
v0.6.0 1999-02-12 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi> [unstable]
+ Plugins! See plugins/* and src/plugin-commands.h for more
information
+ Small PERL plugin, anyone want to continue developing this?
+ Show menubar option
- Some fixes and changes with clicking words.
- Notify list didn't work if ircnet was specified.
- socks5 needed -DSOCKS to work (but this is still untested..)
v0.5.1 1999-02-10 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi>
* A big bugfix release, hopefully no crashes anymore? :)
* Removed intl directory, we don't have any i18n support yet so it's
not needed...
+ Time stamps
+ Use --with-pthreads=no if they don't work right
+ socks4/5 support (untested), use --with-socks=no if you don't want
them.
- If you got kicked from channel irssi was in quite unstable state
- Using channel mode buttons in the upper right corner crashed
- Whois displayed idle time wrong
- Adding first item to empty list (notify, completions, aliases,
ignores) crashed.
- It didn't actually compile without pthreads lib..
- If any texts contained %s, %d, etc.. irssi tried to expand them
- Solaris (and probably some others) need -D_REENTRANT flag to make
threads work corretly.
- gtk_container_add() should be used instead of
gtk_scrolled_window_add_with_viewport() when handling clists..
v0.5.0 1999-02-08 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi>
+ DCC CHAT, SEND, GET
+ pthread support, no more blocking server connections.
+ Notify list
+ Getting more paranoid :) Added a lot of g_return_if_fail()s.
Hopefully not in wrong places :) But these surely save some crashes
with buggy code..
+ BUILD_DOCK, HAVE_GNOME, etc. defines are now placed in config.h
instead of being in -D arguments for gcc.
+ Format strings are more flexible now, you can change the order of
the parameters and you don't need to specify if the argument is
supposed to be string or integer or .. Should be easy to use, %p1
matches the first argument, %p2 the seconds, etc.
+ /PING
- Changing topic from topic entry widget didn't work.
- If window had only one channel, the channel widgets (topic, modes,
etc) didn't show up.
- Using popup menu from status window's channel lists crashed.
- Channel menu didn't work
v0.4.1 1999-02-04 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi>
+ Preferences: completion - if you type <tag> in entry field and
press tab it gets completed, like setting homepage to http://blah
and typing: home page is homepage<tab> -> home page is http://blah
+ Tab nick completion.
+ ':' nick completion also changed a bit.. If it fits to more than
one nick it's completed in bash style. Like if there's mynick1 and
mynik2, "my:" gets completed to "myni:"
+ glib 1.0.6 didn't have g_get_user_name(), g_get_real_name(),
g_get_home_dir() and g_strncasecmp(), made them..
- Using --no-applet crashed..
- Using items in user modes menu crashed
- Several small bugs fixed..
v0.4.0 1999-02-01 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi> [unstable]
+ *Lots* of internal changes with window handling, fixed some memory
leaks also while doing them. You can now have multiple real windows
with tabbed subwindows in them. It's also possible to have multiple
channels in one subwindow. Commands for handling these.. :
- /join - Works like before, creates real or subwindow depending
if "use tabbed windows" is set in setup.
- /wjoin - Joins channel to current window
- /hjoin - Creates new subwindow and joins there
- /njoin - Creates new real window and join there
+ Changed URL max length from 20 to 200.. Didn't realize it was that
low :)
+ Shows the nick who sent wallop, you need to change the second
line in format texts from "%s" to "%s: %s" to make this it work.
Need to do some kind of autoupgrading for formats that change..
+ Found new functions from glib :)
- g_getenv("HOME") -> g_get_home_dir()
- getpw() -> g_get_user_name() and g_get_real_name()
- strcasecmp() -> g_strcasecmp()
- strncasecmp() -> g_strncasecmp()
+ GNOME version uses ~/.irssi.conf if it exists
- Opping/deopping anyone made irssi think that you were opped/deopped
- read_line() had some pretty bad bugs...
v0.3.6 1999-01-29 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi> [unstable]
+ irssi.spec to easily build .rpm
+ Preferences:
- Alternative nick which is used when default nick is in use.
- Create own window for msgs
- Tab orientation
- Flood settings
- Max lines to keep in command line history
- Scrollback buffer size
- Text formats
+ Toolbar .. we need pixmaps .. Needs also window (channel/query)
specific items.
+ Using horizontal panel works right now.
+ Alt-1..0 changes between windows
- Private actions didn't show up in query windows where they should
have.
- Alias and ignores lists were mixed together and didn't work.
- Setting max channels to display in panel to -1 (which is default..)
displayed actually only one channel.. Also setting this to 0 works.
- Topic didn't change when changing between windows in tabbed windows
mode.
- When op received +v, @ was changed to + in nick list
- Connect/disconnect/channels dialogs fixed so that they won't crash
when clicking buttons with empty lists.
v0.3.5 1999-01-26 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi>
+ Finished the channels dialog, you can automatically join to
channels in specific irc networks.
+ Changed the look of connect and disconnect dialogs
+ servertest/ directory, just a test program to try if irssi crashes
with _HEAVY_ network load (ie. if there's buffer overflows or some
other weird bugs). It doesn't :)
+ Preferences: Maximum number of channels to display in panel
- When leaving from channels, panel didn't redraw it's list correctly
- Leaving channels in tabbed window mode crashed
- Fixed crash if connection got lost
v0.3.4 1999-01-24 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi> [unstable]
+ Tabbed windows work a lot better
+ User mode menu
+ Preferences: default user mode
- Connecting to more than one server crashed...
- Nick list redrawing was broken
- Dock applet wrote the texts to pixmap but didn't draw the pixmap
into screen then properly..
v0.3.3 1999-01-23 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi> [unstable]
+ /ignore never - never autoignore nick
+ You can hide/show channel nick list from Channel menu, default
state can be set from preferences.
+ Preferences: Strip styles from text, misc options
+ Launching URLs work!
+ More str[nnn] -> GString changes, should be no more potential
buffer overflows
+ Started the tabbed windows, probably quite buggy and the
window_create() code is getting REALLY ugly..
- Servers didn't display QUIT message.. Couldn't think of any better
way to fix this than not to disconnect the link but let the server
do it.
- ANSI colors didn't work right
v0.3.2 1999-01-22 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi> [unstable]
+ Dock applet, works at least with Enlightenment..
- GTK version tried to move temp config file to real config file
with rename() .. didn't work if /tmp and home were in different
partitions.
- Some servers sent a mode change before /names list, irssi didn't
like that and crashed..
- No more Gtk-Critical messages if irssi is run with --no-applet
v0.3.1 1999-01-22 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi>
* 4 days since last relase. too long :) I'm now starting to create
"unstable" versions of irssi. They have the latest and greatest
features while they might not build/work too well. Check
http://www.sicom.fi/~ikioma/irssi-download.html, new versions will
probably be released quite often.
* GNOME version now builds without GNOME panel applet library
* Works with GTK+ 1.0.6 now, maybe with older too.
+ Connect / disconnect dialogs, channel dialog also started
+ Server setup dialog changed some.
+ Status window has a list of channels, queries and (yet not
implemented) DCC chats. Also the tiny panel window isn't displayed
unless you're running irssi in panel..
+ Menu bar in all windows
+ Cleaned read_line() to use GStrings.
+ $(sysconfdir)/irssi.conf is copied to default user file if it isn't
found.
+ If you get kicked from channel the channel window won't get
destroyed.
- Query was in op submenu in nicklist's popup menu .. whops.
- 0.3.0 broke server tag generation so using multiple servers didn't
work.
v0.3.0 1999-01-18 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi>
* Config changes in GTK version, delete old .irssi.conf file (or
change all "tag = values" to "tag=values")
* Default set of servers and aliases can be found from irssi.conf,
copy that to ~/.gnome/irssi (if build with GNOME) or ~/.irssi.conf
(if build without GNOME).
+ servers page added to preferences. Without connect dialog this is
quite useless though :) But if you set "connect to IRC server at
startup" on, irssi connects you to first local server.
+ aliases :
- /ALIAS <alias> <command to execute>
- alias page added to preferences
- these codes are extracted in commands:
%0 : alias name
%1, %2, %3 .. : word %
&1, &2, &3 .. : word & + the rest of the text after it
%c : channel name
- typing extra / before /command (//command) ignores any aliases
+ ignore list :
- /IGNORE <mask> <ignore level>
- /UNIGNORE <mask> <ignore level>
- ignore page added to preferences
- ignore levels: ALL, CRAP, CHAN, PUBLIC, MSGS, NOTICES, WALLOPS,
SNOTES, ACTIONS, DCC, CTCP, CLIENTNOTICES, CLIENTERRORS
+ autoignoring msg and ctcp flooders
+ options page added to preferences
+ invite lists (channel mode I)
+ !channels should work now
+ replaced quite a lot of g_new()'s with GStrings. fixed one buffer
overflow with this also..
+ /AWAYALL - sends /away to all connected servers
+ /KNOCKOUT [secs] <nick> <reason> - kick+ban+delay (5min)+unban
- nick completion was case-sensitive
- again some minor bugs fixed and features added
v0.2.1 1999-01-17 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi>
+ Preferences: color and font selection
+ gnome-stuff.c has some gnome_* compatible functions to get GTK+
version work. They're pretty slow and dum and maybe even buggy so
if you want better, just compile the gnome libs :)
+ Doubleclicking in topic sets the entry editable/uneditable
- nick completion was buggy
- some minor bugs and features fixed
v0.2.0 1999-01-16 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi>
+ CTCP VERSION returns system name and revisions
+ msgs window has now autoraise set on as default
+ status window is used only when there's no window active..
+ Done server handing:
/server = /disconnect + /connect
/connect = connects to new server without disconnecting from
any old ones
/disconnect = disconnect from current server
+ msgs and status window have a server selector menu
+ clicking a server tag in msgs window changes server
+ channel information box
+ --no-panel command line switch so you can build with GNOME support
but don't need to be running it in panel.
- some automake fixes
- If someone was kicked, the kicker was removed from nick list
insted of the kicked..
- Fixed some weird situtation where snapshot window wouldn't
disappear from screen..
v0.1.0 1999-01-14 Timo Sirainen <a@sicom.fi>
* First release
