Detailed ChangeLogs since 0.2.14:
--------------------------------
2001-08-11 Steve Youngs <youngs(a)xemacs.org>
* Version 0.2.15 released.
* eicq-toolbar.el (eicq-use-toolbar): Change to customize group
'eicq-interface'.
* eicq.el (eicq-start-in-new-frame): Change to customize group
'eicq-interface'.
* INSTALL: Add comments about building on Solaris.
2001-08-11 Jack Twilley <jmt(a)tbe.net>
* icq2tcp.c (main): Use 'perror' instead of 'herror' for Solaris
builds.
* Makefile: Make necessary changes for Solaris builds.
2001-08-10 Erik Arneson <erik(a)aarg.net>
* eicq.el (eicq-show-window): Minor fix. Changed `framep' to
`frame-live-p' just in case the active frame has been destroyed
since we last used it.
2001-08-11 Steve Youngs <youngs(a)xemacs.org>
* README: Change URLs to eicq.sf.net.
* TODO: Ditto.
* eicq-convert.el: Ditto.
* eicq.el: Ditto.
* icq2tcp.c: Ditto.
2001-08-10 Erik Arneson <erik(a)aarg.net>
* eicq.el (eicq-local-bridge-p): New customize option. When
non-nil, Eicq will try to use a remote bridge. This should be
safer than trying to second guess ourselves by looking at various
variables.
(eicq-connect): Second try. This seems to work for both remote
and local bridges very nicely.
2001-08-10 Steve Youngs <youngs(a)xemacs.org>
* eicq.el (eicq-connect): Revert Erik's patch.
(eicq-auto-reply-p): New variable, if non-nil the auto-response
message won't automatically reset state to "online".
(eicq-do-message-helper): Use 'eicq-auto-reply-p'.
(eicq-send-message-helper): Ditto.
(eicq-auto-reply-away): Include shameless plug in auto-reply.
(eicq-auto-reply-occ): Ditto.
(eicq-auto-reply-dnd): Ditto.
(eicq-auto-reply-na): Ditto.
2001-08-09 Erik Arneson <erik(a)aarg.net>
* eicq.el (eicq-frame): New variable. Keep track of EICQ's frame.
(eicq-show-window): Will now make sure that EICQ is redisplayed in
its preferred frame.
(eicq-disconnect): Reset the eicq-frame variable on disconnect,
when all of the buffers are killed and stuff. If
`eicq-start-in-new-frame' is non-NIL, it will delete the frame
that Eicq created during eicq-show-window.
(eicq-start-in-new-frame): New customize option. If non-NIL, Eicq
will start in its own frame.
2001-08-09 Steve Youngs <youngs(a)xemacs.org>
* Makefile (CC): Change to 'gcc'.
* eicq.el (eicq-do-message-helper): Auto-response messages
now work.
2001-08-08 Erik Arneson <erik(a)aarg.net>
* eicq.el (eicq-connect): Better support for remote icq2tcp
bridges.
* Makefile ($(BIN)): Fixed to compile icq2tcp.c instead of the C++
version. Woohoo!
* icq2tcp.c: Replacement for icq2tcp.cc. It's a direct port to C,
and now should compile pretty cleanly on FreeBSD and Linux.
* icq2tcp.cc: Removed. Obsolete! Kaput!
2001-08-07 Erik Arneson <erik(a)aarg.net>
* Makefile (INFO_FILES): Changed.
($(BIN)): New target to accurately reflect dependancies.
(.texi.info): Ditto!
2001-08-07 Steve Youngs <youngs(a)xemacs.org>
* eicq-convert.el (eicq-import-from-licq): Autoload it.
Use '====' to take advantage of outline regexp of world-mode.
(eicq-import-from-micq): Ditto.
2001-08-06 Erik Arneson <erik(a)aarg.net>
* eicq-convert.el (eicq-import-from-micq): Converts an MICQ
configuration to an EICQ 'world' file. I tried to get less
carried away -- this one has fewer lines! Imports these users
into the `micq' group.
(eicq-import-from-licq): Users are imported into the `licq' group.
2001-08-07 Steve Youngs <youngs(a)xemacs.org>
* eicq-convert.el: require 'eicq.
(eicq-import-from-licq): Use 'eicq-world-rc-filename' in case
the user has their world file in a different place from the default.
Remove 'buf' variable, it's not used. Did somebody get a little
carried away? :-)
* Makefile (SOURCES): Add eicq-convert.el
2001-08-06 Erik Arneson <erik(a)aarg.net>
* eicq-convert.el: New File.
(eicq-import-from-licq): New. Converts an LICQ configuration to
an EICQ 'world' file.
2001-08-02 Thorsten Bonow <thorsten.bonow(a)post.rwth-aachen.de>
* Makefile: Add program locations/path for Windows/Cygwin.
* eicq-user-install.sh: ditto.
* INSTALL: Add Windows/Cygwin Installation instructions.
