Patch by: pseudo - Finished converting modules to gettext. Replaced a lot of hardcoded strings. - Fixed some logic errors. Patch by: pseudo - Converted the channels and transfer modules to gettext. Patch by: pseudo - Converted the assoc, blowfish, console, compress, dns, share, uptime and woobie modules to gettext. Patch by: pseudo - Converted remaining lang #defines in the core to english strings from core.english.lang. Gettextified most of the hardcoded strings. Patch by: pseudo - Replaced first part of language #defines with english strings from core.english.lang, marked for translation. Patch by: pseudo - Added dummy gettext macros to prepare for the transition to gettext. Patch by: pseudo - Fixed getudef() to return intptr_t instead of int to prevent crashes on 64-bit systems. Found by: izy` / Patch by: pseudo - Fixed a bug in (u)timers which could lead to invalid memory access. Found by: dr1 / Patch by: thommey - Made it possible to specify ssl independently for telnet and user ports when modifying bot addresses. - Changed the syntax of .chaddr and .+bot to use space as a port separator instead of ':'. - Changed the syntax of server list entries to enclose IPv6 addresses in square brackets, instead of using a comma to separate the port. Patch by: pseudo - Fixed dcc_telnet_pass() to not use a constant string with fingerprint authentication, because strip_telnet() may attempt to write to it later. Found by: grawity / Patch by: pseudo - Modified tcl_channel_get to return a flat list of all channel settings and their values when called without a setting argument. - Added two new Tcl commands: [chansettype] returning setting types and [getudefs] listing user defined channel settings. Patch by: pseudo - Added optional count argument to Tcl timer and utimer to allow them run more than once. Patch by: pseudo - Renamed the vhost Tcl variable to vhost4 as it is in the documentation. Patch by: pseudo - Removed -mwin32 on Windows. It's no longer necessary and causes problems with Cygwin 1.7. Patch by: Kirben, pseudo - Removed few wire.mod leftovers. Removed IRC_FUNKICK. Patch by: pseudo - Performed some cleanup. Removed some obsolete config aliases. - Added missing parts of the documentation. Updated news and features for 1.8. Patch by: pseudo - Added -lcrypto when probing for -lssl in --with-ssllib Patch by: pseudo - Removed the never-give-up, sort-users and kick-fun/ban-fun variables. Sorting users shouldn't be a challenge for CPUs nowadays. The rest are rarely used and can be scripted. Patch by: guppy - Removed wire.mod and all references to it. Botnet and partyline encryption are now available using ssl. Patch by: guppy - Modified SIGQUIT handler to restart the bot by default. - Added support for evnt bind procs to cancel default signal actions. - Removed the die-on-sighup and die-on-sigterm variables. - Added a new bind type DIE triggered before a clean shutdown. - Changed the exit status on clean shutdown to 0. Patch by: pseudo - Clarified the OpenSSL version requirements. - Rewrote open_telnet() to make it more useful. - Replaced some calls to open_telnet_raw() with open_telnet(). Patch by: pseudo - Added few autoconf checks for ssl. - Added tls to tcl_status() Patch by: pseudo - Added full SSL support including Tcl commands. - Added support for certificate authentication. - Added support for botnet and partyline encryption using ssl. - Documented the new features and commands. - Fixed add_server() problems with IPv6 addresses in the server list. Patch by: pseudo - Fixed dns.mod on QNX6/Mac OS X/Solaris - Rewrote dns.mod's autoconf checks to detect the resolver library properly on Darwin/Solaris. - Added -lsocket to the list of libraries, searched for res_* functions, in order to support QNX6. Patch by: pseudo - Altered the permission check on the pls/mns ban/exempt/invite commands from USER_MASTER to USER_OP to allow global operators to set global bans. Patch by: pjb - Removed the unrecognized options warning when configuring modules. - Modified -v output and .status display configure options. Patch by: pseudo - Added the process and parent pids to .status output. Increased the precision of cpu time reporting. - Added a new Tcl command 'status' to provide access to cpu/memory/cache information now and some more in the future. Patch by: pseudo - Fixed some problems with IPv6 autodetection and system headers. Patch by: pseudo - Made some corrections to the contributors list, removed a duplicate entry. Patch by: pseudo - Fixed bind cron html documention to be in sync with non-html one. Found by: 64MAAMVDH / Patch by: thommey - Replaced most dns.mod preprocessor definitions with config variables. - Added support for user-specified dns servers and non-standard ports. This is most important for Cygwin 1.7, where the dns server list won't get initialized under some common conditions. - Added a trace to the new variable dns-servers, allowing scripts to get or set the current dns server list. - Added the servers list to the dns module information displayed by .status all Patch by: pseudo - Fixed a bug in setsockname() making it fail with IPv6 enabled due to a variable not being set. Found by: afterlife / Patch by: pseudo - Fix env(TZ) config setting to not contain a space. The space is just inserted in POSIX documentation to clarify, it must not be there. Found by: Digdilem / Patch by: thommey - Made dcc_telnet_new() allow non-latin characters in new handles like other handle validation functions. Patch by: pseudo - Modified src/compat/ replacements of gethostbyname2() and inet_ntop() to not compile when IPv6 is disabled. - Added a missing header preventing gethostbyname2() from compiling on FreeBSD. - Fixed few lines with wrong indentation. Patch by: pseudo - Reran autotools. - Added detection of Tcl_NotifierProcs members to ensure the notifier can be replaced. Fixes compilation against Tcl 8.2 and 8.3. Found by: AlIt0 / Patch by: thommey - Added full IPv6 support. New patch, nothing in common with older ones. - Changed a lot of functions and variables without breaking scripting compatibility. The list of changes is too long to include here. Patch by: pseudo - Updated documentation to reference 1.8 instead of 1.6. - Changed module dependencies to 1.8. - Changed default handlen to 32. - Changed default make type to 'debug' as it should be in CVS builds.
