# Revision 3.4.1.1 93/09/29 03:12:51 03:12:51 wjm (Bill Middleton)
# Last checkin before announcement to the mailing list. One slight
# modification to the prompt change mentioned in 3.4, to make it
# agree with the actual number of items in the cwd.
#
# Revision 3.4 93/09/29 02:48:26 02:48:26 wjm (Bill Middleton)
# Major fix to the directory selection routine, select_dir(). Reworked
# most of moose's fixes to round out the routine nicely. Added a
# reference to the main prompt, to the current item number, of the total items
# in the cwd.
#
# Revision 3.3 93/09/27 02:03:14 02:03:14 wjm (Bill Middleton)
# small bug in parsef which didnt display correct path on remote
# links. fixed.
#
# Revision 3.2.2.2 93/09/27 01:28:03 01:28:03 wjm (Bill Middleton)
# Fixed up file installation to allow the current .cap or .link to
# be installed along with the file. If neither exists yet, then
# allow creation of one. Deletion of files requires system() without
# a list, apparantly because of the argument to rm. Fixed.
#
# Revision 3.2.2.1 93/09/26 15:21:23 15:21:23 wjm (Bill Middleton)
# Fixed nasty little bug getting the type of the item
#
# Revision 3.2.1.2 93/09/25 03:31:57 03:31:57 wjm (Bill Middleton)
# added a little more checking to mv'ing, copying, or linking files to other
# directories. Stripped out the descriptor creation code and made it a
# subroutine. Fixed most of the system() calls to use a list.
#
# Revision 3.2.1.1 93/09/24 20:43:01 20:43:01 wjm (Bill Middleton)
# Many bugs fixed, and features/options refined. Several new configuration
# variables added to deal with gdbm, link entry delimitation, and parsing the
# gopherd.conf file. Most of moose's changes left intact, or slightly altered.
# Indentation via tabs removed, however. Resolution of link file name for
# file/dir in cwd fixed. Otherwise full path displayed. Fixed nuke_cache()
# to get .cache+ files too.
#
# Revision 3.2 93/09/10 13:04:46 13:04:46 wjm (Bill Middleton)
# Checked in as 3.2 from 3.1.1.7
#
# Revision 3.1.1.7 93/08/26 20:44:03 moose
# Implemented simple data entry. Changed subs delete_file and mv_file
# so .cap files got the same treatment as the regular file.
# Also changed redisplay features of view_lead and related code.
#
# Revision 3.1.1.6 93/08/25 18:07:48 moose
# Made calls to editor prepend full path name, quoted so that
# filenames with spaces was kept as one argument.
#
# Revision 3.1.1.5 93/08/19 12:17:58 moose
# merged most edits from 3.1.1.4.1.1, especially the parts
# that got commented at last 8^)
#
# Revision 3.1.1.4 93/08/18 16:22:55 moose
# stomped bugs in select_dir: no more paging past start or end,
# no hardcoded pagelengths, no 17 lines "End of listing ..."
#
# Revision 3.1.1.3 93/08/18 14:41:34 moose
# stomped link file parsing bug (entries with same path hides each other,
# multiple comment lines yielding bogus null entries)
#
# Revision 3.1.1.2 93/08/17 18:50:50 moose
# solved `hostname` problem (chop trailing \n 8^)
#
# Revision 3.1.1.1 93/08/17 17:54:49 moose
# merged 2.2.1.4 with 3.1, one issue remains to be solved.
# Also select dir (new 3.1 code) has problems.
#
# Revision 3.1 93/08/17 14:00:22 wjm
# I've done some more work on the Gopher Environment Editor. It needs some
# testing tho. I feel pretty good about it, but i wanted to get some testing
# before i make it the new default.
# Heres a short summary of the fixes:
# Now using dbm file for getdirs, and the getdirs code is builtin.
# View info for an item now loops until <CR> or change info.
# Directory selection continues until selection or [Qq].
# Add John's patch, in the form of a call to getopt.pl, to allow command
# line parameters for port, toplevel, default link file name, and the
# name of the directory-name database.
# Shorten some command lines when necessary. (path too long)
# Added an option to not view dot-files.
#
# Revision 2.2.1.4 93/08/13 20:29:14 moose
# make read_links parse all link file entries (link file syntax
# deduced from gopherd sources: comments are lines starting with a '#'
# and link entries are separated by comments.
#
# Revision 2.2.1.3 93/08/12 22:32:32 moose
# Find, read & parse gopherd.conf, ignore suffixes, set types, hostalias.
# Hostname equality comparison now recognizes aliases as equal.
#
# Revision 2.2.1.2 93/08/12 16:57:05 moose
# Directorys sorted the same order as gopher (sub bygroup).
# Don't show dotfiles, '..' or '.'. Since '..' can't be
# selected if it isn't shown, U is added as "select parent dir".
#
# Revision 2.2.1.1 93/08/10 22:50:52 moose
# create branch for my own hacks
#
# Revision 2.2 93/08/10 17:30:09 wjm
# First round tidying up indentation.
