Changelog Updated June 8th 2006 Version: 0.8.0 * Finished Interests and recommendations * Rewrote Scrolling variables (each mode/window has it's own scroll counter, now) * Rewrote much of the way internal data and variables are stored * Yanked a lot of dead code * Fixed the input-disappearing bug (happened on PM messages) * Fixed some config options not getting saved * Added /autoaway toggle * Added /searchuser option for User Searches (Alt-T in search) Updated May 29th 2006 Version: 0.8.0pre2 * Added setup.py script. You can now install mucous by entering "python setup.py install" as root * Fixed the /connect command so that it works after starting up with incorrect interface and/or interface password. (It was stuck in a while loop) * Made alerts delete when their "parent tabs" get closed (I.E. with the /close command) * Added RoomTickers handler, so now joining a room gets all the current tickers. Updated April 18th 2006 Version: 0.8.0pre1 * Lots of new features to keep up with Museek+ * the unfinished Interests/Recommendations are in Users mode * New commands: /extra (toggle responding to version requests) /ctcpversion (request client version) /logout /login (Server Login and Logout) /like /donotlike (Add/remove interests) /hate /donothate (Add/remove interests) /similar /itemsimilar (List Similar users) /globalrex /recommendations /rex /itemrex /uploadto /upload (Initiate remote upload) * Renabled Home/End for supporting terminals * Removed white colors defines, so that White-BG terminals are readable. Updated April 29th 2006 Version: 0.7.10 * Fixed a bug with the Browse User popup menu item * Users-in-Room Box is positionable on the right side of the Chat Window and Status log, now. There are now 7 different positions for the subwindows in Chat mode. * Fixed scrolling alignment bug caused by tab marks \t by replacing them with spaces * Newlines, ( \n ) are properly formatted with a "--' prefix now. This will only matter on Soulfind servers, as Soulseek has disabled them, iirc. * Fixed an error message when attempting (Alt-Up/Alt-Down) to get input history when you haven't inputed anything, yet. * Greatly reduced flicker when drawing/refreshing Chat mode and some other modes by using the .noutrefresh() curses function in a lot of cases, instead of the .refresh() curses function. This requires a curses.doupdate() when construction of the window is finished, but is much cleaner and less annoying. * Made search entry not try to convert accented characters, don't know if it'll help any. * Mucous sets the mode to Away after 900 seconds of keyboard/mouse inactivity. (this is AutoAway) Updated April 23th 2006 Version: 0.7.9 * Fixed a bug with the Userinfo popup menu item * Added a warning with instructions if the Mucipher module isn't found. * Fixed the Input Bar to keep it's contents after resizing the terminal window. * Fixed download/upload numbers to be cleared after disconnection * Fixed long /me Chat lines to be completely green * Connect/Disconnect status messages are more verbose * Fixed search result tabs not to be checked for away status.. *blush* * Made user tabs (in browse, private, & userinfo modes) to refresh less often when users change status Updated April 17th 2006 Version: 0.7.8b * Fixed two bugs in Browsing shares (extra \ in the directory tree, and once again, Windows drives) Thanks for the bug report, Cravings. Updated April 17th 2006 Version: 0.7.8 * Clicking on the top-left status message now can reconnect you to Museek, if you're not connected, or toggle Away/Online Status if you are connected. * Tabs fit together a bit closer, and now if a user is offline, away or online, the color of the user's nick will be red, yellow, white, or green if online and selected. * Alert Messages work differently, now (Old messages reappear when newer ones have been cleared) * Added /reload and /refresh (/reloadshares and /refreshshares still exist) * Removed /pmclose and /infoclose and merged them into a more incompassing /close function that works for Chatrooms, Private Chat, Searching, Browsing, and Userinfo * Chat Room Buffers are now 700 messages long. This is to prevent wasteful Memory and CPU usage while scrolling. If you want longer chatroom history, use the chat logs (by default in your ~/.mucous/logs/rooms/ directory. Updated April 7th 2006 Version: 0.7.7b * Fixed the mouse-clickable ChatLog scroll arrows to work with the resized windows * Added a check for TERM != 'linux' (the linux console or framebuffer) for updating the Terminal title. * Made scrolling directories the default in Browse Mode. * Rearranged the not-quite-perfect browsefilter to catch everything in the directory. But it's still not very usable. Command: /bfilter * Simplified FileFormat code (GB/MB/KB/B). There were some problems with certain file sizes. * Also fixed some bugs caused by missing file stats. * Made Chat log not autoscroll if not on the last line of the buffer. (hopefully will work without too many problems) Updated March 31th 2006 Version: 0.7.6 * Added Encoding option/menus to Chat Rooms, Private Chat and Browse Modes. To change, click on the encoding (Example: UTF-8) in bottom right and choose a new option from the menu. * Once again, I have fixed broken accented characters... I can't seem to go a few versions with breaking them :) * Add a Place in Queue option to the Download Transfer menu. Using it on a queued download should update the display with the number of files before you in the queue. You can also use /ut 1, or any other number to update the queue position. * Fixed a scrolling bug that broke downloading individual files from big directories in Browse Mode and another bug with file stats. Updated March 27th 2006 Version: 0.7.5 * Fixed some minor bugs with highlighting tab, added Help highlighting * Added the Give Privileges function. Example: /giveprivs username Afterwards, input a number of days and press Enter. You can also access this via the popup menus. Updated March 26th 2006 Version: 0.7.4 * Added empty directories to the directory tree in Browse Mode * Add Visual Notifications to some of the tabs at the bottom of the screen. For example, new Chat messages cause Chat tab to highlight yellow, while new nick mentions cause it to highlight red. New PMs, Search results, Userinfo, and Browsed Shares all cause their respective tabs to highlight yellow. I think you'll like it. * Sorted joined chatrooms alphabetically (as should have been ages ago) * merged /autojoin and /noauto into a single /autojoin toggle * Added function to check remaining privileges. Use /privileges or /privs Updated March 21th 2006 Version: 0.7.3e * More bugs fixed.

List view has been AXED. >:) * Fixed Chat log saving. It can now be is permanently disabled. (get 0.7.3c) Updated March 18th 2006 Version: 0.7.2 * Search now is quite different, you'll need to scroll to file to see it's details, size, length.. user and the rest. Also a right-click (Alt-p) popup menu was added. The Search Filter is a lot more obvious now. Set it with /filter * Clicking on the user/search tabs in Private, Info, Search and Browse modes now actually works as it should, instead of simply cycling thru the list. * Help is now split between Debug mode and Help Mode. Errors and status messages are shown in Debug Mode, and /help commands are displayed only in Help Mode. Use: /debug /help or click on their respective titles when in either mode. * Rewrote scrolling for Help, the New Debug mode, Private Chat, Chat, and Info modes.. works much smoother. * Bug in Transfer scrolling fixed * The last 20 lines of chat history will be displayed when joining rooms, and also some previous private chat history is shown * Added missing Private chat menu item to some of the popup menus * Chat now has a resize button in the top left of the chat window.
