The garbage X-To: problem is fixed. Was hard to find though. The packed
format option for stored files is ready but makes the 1.5d filelist format
(slightly) incompatible with that of the beta-1.5c release, so I changed the
release number. DISTRIBUTE has been improved to allow:
1) Specification of a PRIOR= keyword for RSCS prior, with default being set
according to file size.
2) Specification of INFORM=MAIL to have LISTSERV send a mailfile along with the
file telling from whom the file came.
3) Possibility to distribute to a list without looping ( :-) ). Just send a
distribution job with listname@node as recipient as it does it.
4) Possibility to distribute to the LISTSERV userid itself; in this case the
file is treated as a jobfile.
--> PUT commands will be distributed this way (automatically, ie under control
of a Peers= keyword in the filelist header)
Finally, and it took an awful lot of time, you have a pseudo-NOTEBOOK FILELIST
which you can GET and to which you can FUI (but not AFD, would take too much
CPU), and you can issue GET commands against the notebooks, and the owners
can even PUT them! (eg if they want to edit or delete them). However once the
notebook is deleted it cannot be re-PUT back. You can AFD and FUI to these
notebooks normally, the only difference with real files is once they're deleted
you can't PUT them back. But I've already said that, I realize I'm really tired
and I must get up at 6:30 tomorrow :-(
