5 * Error handling when fopen fails.
6 This prevents fgets from segfaulting on the next line, closing Debian
8 Thanks to <anomie@users.sourceforge.net> for the bug report and patch.
12 * Display version number from configure.ac with -v option.
14 * Fix typos. Ran `codespell -w .`.
18 * Fix buffer overflow if interface has name > 8 characters.
19 Patch by anomie@users.sourceforge.net to fix Debian bug #805519. [1]
21 * Switch to autotools for build.
23 * Add desktop entry file.
25 * Update INSTALL after switch to autotools.
27 [1] https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=805519
31 * wmifs uses now the new library libdockapp that includes the old
34 * Add note about libdockapp to INSTALL.
38 * Include latest version of wmgeneral library.
40 * Move source files to top directory.
42 * Fix spelling error and escape hyphen in manpage. Based on a patch in
43 the Debian package [1].
45 * Fix "variable 'ppp_old" set but not used" compiler warning. Based on a
46 patch from the Debian package [2].
48 * Update Makefile. In particular,
49 - Drop unnecessary definition of DESTDIR.
50 - Drop LIBDIR; pointed to deprecated X11R6 directory.
51 - Honors CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS build flags.
52 - Remove out-of-date version number from installation message.
53 Based in part on a patch from the Debian package [3].
55 * Fix "suggest braces around empty body in an ‘if’ statement" compiler
58 * Fix "comparison between signed and unsigned integer expressions"
61 * Fix "overflow in implicit constant conversion" compiler warnings.
63 * Replace deprecated caddr_t with void *.
65 * Replace deprecated usleep with nanosleep. Although defining
66 _DEFAULT_SOURCE is overkill for nanosleep, it also fixes "field ‘b’
67 has incomplete type" errors, as we need __USE_MISC defined to pick up
68 the definition of ifreq in <net/if.h>.
70 * Add -c command line option allowing users to set color.
72 * Reformat help text for readability.
74 * Add support for wmgeneral's -geometry command line option. Also take
75 the opportunity to correct the manpage; the -d option should be
78 * Honor CONF Makefile variable when parsing system config files.
80 * Don't ignore geometry strings beginning with '-'.
82 * Throw out first /proc/net/dev reading. If we keep it, we start with a
83 huge spike and everything else is zero until the spike finally leaves
84 the window several moments later.
86 * Tidy #includes using include-what-you-use.
88 * Reduce scopes of variables (fixes style warnings from cppcheck).
90 * Convert strtok() calls to thread-safe strtok_r().
92 * Add proper copyright header.
94 * Update Window Maker instructions in HINTS.
96 * Remove first two installation steps in INSTALL. The user must have
97 already done these two things already to be able to read INSTALL in
100 * Update README. In particular,
101 - Remove version-specific information in header.
102 - Clarify webhost information in Credits section.

108 1.4 * Released 141022
110 * Incorporate patches from Debian.
112 * Now maintained by Window Maker Developers Team.
114 1.3b * Released 980513
116 * Splitted up WMPPP and WMiFS into separate programs.
118 * WMiFS now uses our 'newstyle' shared dockapps code,
119 it's quite rewritten again.
121 * WMiFS now reads /proc/dev/net instead of /proc/net/route.
123 * Changed the RC file parsing and handling again.
125 * Now ignores DUMMY interface too :)
127 * Fixed the 'Zombie' bug :)
129 * Better 'execvp' code :)
131 * Vastly reduced X CPU usage :)
134 1.2p1 * Released 980502
136 * Updated the docs, sorry, we forgot to update some
137 of them, due to some last minute changes in the code
138 the docs where incorrect on some parts (systemrc).
140 * Updated the Makefile because the systemrc files
141 went to the wrong location (due to above changes).
143 * Updated the WMPPP rc files, again, due to some last
144 minute changes in the code, WMPPP's rc files where
145 no longer working properly.
148 1.2 * Released 980429
150 * Completely revamped the WMPPP & WMiFS GUI :)
152 * Added 'forceleft, forcemiddle and forceright'
153 options in WMiFS for 'real' multiuser systems,
154 when 'force*' is detected in /etc/wmifsrc the
155 user settings in ~/.wmifsrc are overridden
156 (useful for sites where users may not fiddle
157 with pppd's options :)
159 * WMPPP: Ditto, added 'force' facility here too
161 * WMPPP: now correctly redisplays time when killed
164 * WMPPP: timer now starts to run when the actual
167 * WMPPP: added BAUD CONNECT value display
169 * WMPPP: added 'getmodemspeed', a SUID proggie to
170 read the CONNECT value from /var/log/messages
172 * WMPPP: dropped the config GUI and added an
173 .wmppprc file instead > motivation to do so:
174 this way, WMPPP is much more platform and
175 distribution independent :)
177 * WMPPP: enhanced the status LED, yellow means
178 dialing, green means online, red means error
180 * WMPPP: added -display commandline option
182 * WMPPP: added -t commandline option, default
183 the timer will display HH:MM, -t will display
184 MM:SS and switch to HH:MM after 60 minutes
186 * WMiFS: added support for all interfaces in
187 /proc/net/, now all interfaces are supported :)
189 * WMiFS: added -display commandline option
191 * WMiFS: added -w commandline option, this will
192 draw the graph in our new 'waveform' look :)
194 * WMiFS: fixed the coredump problems that occurred
195 on some systems with or without .wmifsrc file
196 typo's, errors, etc. in the .wmifsrc file are
197 now also being ignored/rejected, the worst
198 thing that can happen now is that the scripts
199 do not execute (i.e. luser error) ;-)
201 * WMiFS: when monitoring a ppp interface, bytes
202 are used to draw the graph, otherwise packets
204 * WMiFS: made the RX/TX/Status LED box identical
205 to the one in WMPPP, the right LED is the status
206 LED, green means interface is working, red means
207 error (interface down, NIC broken, etc.)
