New Features in Museek Plus

Since forking from Museek, there's been a decent number of new features added. You can check the ChangeLog for more changes.

• Room Searching (Initially, by SeeSchloss, and later with the new Room Search message, 120)
• Replaced User Searching peer messages with the new User Search server message, (message 42)
• Interests and Recommendations messages connected up and accessable my the clients.
• A new type of user, the Trusted User.
• Only Trusted Users are allowed to send you files. (and even this is can be disabled)
• Created a seperate Buddies-Only Shared files list, with modifications to muscan and muscand. (this can be toggled)
• Museekd can be manually disconnected and reconnected to the server
• Museekd sends out responses to message 26 (normal file search)
• Museekd quits attempting to reconnect to server if another client has kicked it off (message 41)
• Redirect User info and browse user requests to yourself from your Internet IP to 127.0.0.1 to get around NATs and routers.
• Made updating your own shares count work by sending a peer_status request immediately afterwards.
• Added peer message 52, the Remote Queue Notification. If a remote user attempts to upload to you, but is not a trusted user, it will now get an automatic Private Message warning the user of this.
• Rewrote the User Shares parsing function in messages.py, so now mucous' browsing speed is comparable to browsing in museeq.
• Added a new Status Message (for server messages) that is passed on to the clients.
• Finished Send Speed, so that when files finish downloading, it uploads the average speed of the other user to the server.
• Allow Download Folder request with or without a trailing slash, for compatibility's sake.
• Removed museekctl and other defunct python scripts. Added museekcontrol.
• Made mucous part of Museek-Plus
• Added man pages for museekd, muscan, muscand, musetup, museeq, mulog, mucous, and museekcontrol
