Subject: [ECS] BETA upload


>Hi all,
>This new BETA has just been uploaded:
> 
> 4.2.009 (01/19/00)
>
>   192) Corrected problem with KEYBOARD-EVENT recognizing class names.
>
>*  193) Corrected mistake in the TV-GUIDE and TV-LISTINGS Events
> (see #194 below before making this change):
>
> THIS:
> | ; If user enters A, S, or V, append to TVLFAV.TXT:
> | BEGINIF Character-A Is A
> | Or Character-A Is a
> | Or Character-A Is S
> | Or Character-A Is s
> | Or Character-A Is V
> | Or Character-A Is v
> 
> SHOULD BE THIS:
> | ; If user enters A, V, or R, append to TVLFAV.TXT:
> | BEGINIF Character-A Is A
> | Or Character-A Is a
> | Or Character-A Is V
> | Or Character-A Is v
> | Or Character-A Is R
> | Or Character-A Is r
>
>*  194) Added support for a TVL "F" code, so as to mark shows as
>favorites
> in the TV-Guide Window withOUT announcing them. To support this
> feature, copy the TV-GUIDE/TV-LISTINGS Events and the
> "TVL6 FAVORITE MSG" Item from EXAMPLE.CFG to ECS.CFG.
>
>   195) Corrected problem whereby lower-case characters could not be
> specified as a State for CHARACTER Items in the Event-Editor.
>
>*  196) ECS.HTM/EXAMPLE.CFG now document/use the RADMIN shareware ($25
>reg)
> to access the ECS PC via the internet, as it appears to be much
> faster and easier to use than the VNC freeware.
> To support RADMIN in ECS.CFG:
>      1) Replace all VNC/WINVNC Items with the R_SERVER Items in
> EXAMPLE.CFG.
>      2) Replace the WINVNC Event with the R_SERVER Event in
> EXAMPLE.CFG.
>      3) Customize the POSTIE command in R_SERVER0.BAT as you did
> with the similar command in WINVNC0.BAT.
>
>*  197) SERIAL-BYTE and I/O-PORT-BYTE Items are now read when referenced
> (instead of at the start of each Event-Pass).
>
>   198) TVL setup/usage instructions have been moved from EXAMPLE.CFG
> to ECS.HTM (see "TV SHOWS").
>
>   198) The TV-GUIDE window now displays the codes (F/A/V/R) of
>favorites
> the leftmost column (as read from TVLFAV.TXT).
>
>*  199) In EXAMPLE.CFG, I have increased the TV-GUIDE "look-ahead" from
> 2 hours to 12 hours. If you wish to do so, set your TVL4.EXE
> Item's Text-Line as follows (12 hours = 720 minutes):
> TVL4 TVL.TXT TVLFAV.TXT 720 TV-Guide.TXT
> Note that this change will significantly increase the time it
> takes to run TVL4.EXE.
>
>*  200) To mark/announce/view/record TV shows ONE TIME ONLY, you may now
> enter the same codes keys with <Shift> (<Shift-F>/<Shift-A</<Shift-V>/
> <Shift-R>). To incorporate this enhancement, replace your TV-GUIDE/
> TV-LISTING Events with those in EXAMPLE.CFG.
>
>   201) Fixed a bug which would occur if you created an Item and then
> deleted it (or deleted the LAST Item in the cfg).
>
>*  202) For CBAND/TVL users: I modified the following Events in
>EXAMPLE.CFG,
> so that they use the PARSED sat & transponder when applicable.
> Otherwise (if the CBAND CHAN is set via the user or a non-TVL
> Event), the sat/transponder are calculated from the State of
> the CBAND CHAN Item.
> TVR
> TV-Guide
> TV-Listings
> CBand Chan Monitor
> CBand Chan Set
>
>*  203) FREE-MEMORY has been renamed to FREE-PHYSICAL-MEM.
>
>   204) A new Type (FREE-VIRTUAL-MEM) now denotes free virtual memory
> (which can included disk space).
>
>   205) Corrected a problem whereby the "wrong" window could sometimes
> be restored after executing another program (with WAIT).
> For example, if you deleted a line in the TV-GUIDE window
> (triggering the execution of TVL5.EXE), then the Group window
> could be displayed afterwards.
>
>   206) Corrected bug which could cause a crash on startup if a FILE
> Item had an Initial State of OPEN.
