LYNX-DEV v2.6 mods

[Foteos Macrides]

        Here's a list of the mods in my personal mods replacement file
set (lynx2-6mods.zip) since 30-Nov-96:

12-08-96
* Added a VLINKS command, mapped by default to upper case 'V', and code
  for creating a list of all links 'V'isited during the current Lynx session
  in order of recency (most recent highest in the list).  Lower case 'v' is
  still mapped to VIEW_BOOKMARKS.  The VLINKS listing is complementary to
  the History Page listing, and formatted similarly.  It excludes POST
  replies, and bookmark, menu and list files (use the History Page or
  direct keystroke commands for those).  It includes any links that were
  downloaded, or passed to a helper app (except mailto and newsreply or
  newsfollowup links, since those require activation in the original
  document for proper inclusion of it in the email message or news
  post).  You can print the Visited Links Page, or 'd'ownload it via
  the History Page. - FM
* Added reporting of the Charset parameter, if present in a server reply
  header, META tag, or by virtue of a suffix map, to the showinfo ('=')
  display. - FM
12-07-96
* Added 'p'rint menu support for the History Page. - FM
* Added a content_length element to the anchor structure and use that,
  if a Content-Length header has been received, to indicate the total
  bytes in the statusline when receiving the stream. - FM
* Include HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE in the lynxcgi environment. - David Trueman
  (address@hidden).
12-06-96
* Many more cleanups and commenting of the code for the benefit of new
  developers. - FM
* Tweaks of URL parsing and path simplifications.  Added simplification
  of the file://localhost paths from startup and 'g'oto guesses. - FM
* More anti-crash protections for bad HTML in SELECT blocks. - FM
* Usability enhancement for DIRED's 'F' menu: list number and names of
  (some of) the tagged items, and provide a way to untag all items. - KW
* Force screen refresh after a DIRED system command has failed. - KW
* Modified HTFile.c to handle relative and "Up to parent" links more
  effectively. - KW
* Added KEYGEN to the DTD (but no code to do anything with it yet). - FM
12-05-96
* Fixed typo in the for-Unix section of LYAddPathToHome() that was added
  yesterday in LYUtils.c. - James Troup (address@hidden)
12-04-96
* Numerous cleanups and commenting of the LYfoo.c and LYfoo.h modules,
  for the benefit of new Lynx developers. - FM
* More security-related enhancements and polishing up of the multiple
  bookmark file support. - FM
* Increased the sizes of MAXHIST and MAXLINKS, added statusline messages
  should they ever be exceeded (not likely now 8-), and code for freeing
  all excess pointers on each page draw instead of letting them grow and
  freeing them on exit (should help for memory-limited systems 8-). - FM
* Tweaks of DIRED_SUPPORT. - KW
12-02-96
* Show nntp server status messages in group listings when not 221 (normal
  reply to HEAD request), so the user will know that the articles are
  not available from the server, rather than a bug in Lynx. - FM
* Tweaks of BASE resolving. - FM
* Added "trick" to send hostname guesses to stdout when the startfile or
  homepage are not URLs, as we send to the statusline for 'g'oto guesses
  (but don't use stdout if we are not interactive and the desired output
  is going to stdout).  If the DNS lookup stalls, one thus can Control-C
  out, instead of wondering why Lynx is taking so long to start up. - FM
* Cleaned up the read_rc() and save_rc() functions in LYrcFile.c. - FM
* Eliminated all printw() calls to avoid problems with non-ASCII and/or
  multibyte/CJK characters. - FM
* Numerous additional bug fixes and enhancements of the multiple bookmark
  file support. - FM
* Got rid of the ADVANCED_MULTI_BOOKMARKS symbol now that the choice can
  be made in the 'o'ptions menu and saved in the .lynxrc file. - FM
