14/Jan/00, v0.99 -- maintenance release

a8      - Added Win32 build to the distribution. From now on this is
	the primary build for debugging and testing, all other flavours 
	just pass automated acceptance tests.

	- New keyword "IdlePassthruIgnorePassive" will force program to
	ignore passive downlinks when checking if the passthru area is an
	idle one.

	- NewAreaRefuse keyword will now accept reference area mask 
	files just like ForwardRequestRefuse etc. Thanks Den.

	- Fixed problem with readonly nodes not being properly set
	for autocreate areas. Thanks Andrey.

	- SqaFix will not forward request if requested area matches
	NewAreaRefuse mask for the uplink node. Thanks Piter.

	- SqaFix will now refuse to create areas with tags specified
	in NetArea, BadArea and DupeArea keywords in Squish.cfg --
	this should prevent those terrible disasters when message with 
	AREA:NETMAIL somehow falls into BadArea and then EchoArea
	with NETMAIL area tag gets autocreated.	

	- SqaFix will now use the first instance of AREA: kludge just 
	like Squish does. Previous versions used the last instance and 
	this caused problems with autocreate messages which somehow
	had multiple AREA: kludges. Thanks Konstantin.

	- Fixed problem with <no description> being set for %avail requests 
	even if DefaultAreaDescr is set to "". Thanks Alexander.
	
	- Fixed problem with readonly areas not being processed with
	%ACTIVE/%PASSIVE requests.

	- Fixed problem which sometimes caused trap when updating 
	Squish.cfg Pack lines close to 127 characters. Thanks Alexey.

	- SqaFix will not automatically allow area autocreation for the
	node, which is specified as an uplink node. You need explicitely
	specify +A flag for nodes, which you want to forward requests to.

	- Added code to always build the full paths before comparing them.
	This should prevent problems when new areas are sometimes created
	with duplicate area path if NewAreaPath is fully qualified but
	some of the area paths are not or vise versa.

	- Added code to skip leading 'Password' keyword in Password List
	lines. So now you can specify Squish config files in 'PasswordList'
	keyword. Thanks John.

	- Added code which will prevent processing of any message generated
	by SqaFix during a single run in order to prevent endless reply loops
	caused by erroneus setups.

	- Added more strict subject line checking to prevent endless reply
	loops. Any message to SqaFix which does not have subject line matching
	<password>[ -?[...]] pattern will be ignored.

	- Fixed problem with max rescan limit +R[nnn] not being set for the
	nodes if defined in DefaultNodeFlags keyword.

	- Fixed minor cosmetic bug with extra empty lines added in original
	message text printout in remote request reports when the original
	message lines ended with 0d/0a. Thanks Dmitry.

	- Added console command 'Rules' which allows you to send rules to
	the specified node for all areas matching the given mask.

	- Added console command 'DumpNode' to dump the node information.
	If no nodes are specified, then all the existing nodes info
	will be dumped.

	- Added console command 'DumpUplink' to dump the uplink information.
	If no uplinks are specified, then all the existing uplinks info
	will be dumped.

	- Added console command 'DumpArea' to dump the area information.
	If no areas are specified, then all the existing areas info
	will be dumped.

	- Added fake autocreation mode. Run the command:
	  SqaFix AutoCreate <nodeaddr> <area> -X
	to see what will happen if <nodeaddr> will create <area>.
	This command helps to test your new area creation rules.


07/May/98, v0.99 -- bugfix release

a7      - Added 'PasswordList' keyword which allows you to specify T-Mail
	compatible password list file. If the node's password in 'Node'
	keyword is set to '*', it would be taken from this password list.
	This allows you to keep passwords in one place. Thanks Oleg...

	- fixed bug with -L<level> flag in the Node statement which
	sometimes caused arbitrary node flags being set if happened to be
	very first flag specified. Thanks Oleg...


13/Nov/97, v0.99 -- bugfix release

a6      - fixed problem with adding empty extra line on every config
	file update in OS/2 version.


10/Nov/97, v0.99 -- bugfixes mostly...

a5      - Bumped max number of aka addresses to 32. Klaus Panzlaff from
	Germany is the first who ran out of previous 16 akas limit :)

	- Added new node flag Z which prevents report generation for the
	remote requests coming from this node from name SqaFixHost. This
	can be used to cut down traffic with the busy uplinks.

	- ATTENTION: CHANGES IN 'NewAreaPath TREE' SPECIFICATION !!!

	Added TREEDIR specification which works exactly like TREE in
	previous versions, that is TREEDIR creates names like:
	     <NewAreaPath>\UUCP\COMP\BINARY\IBM\PC\*.MSG or
	     <NewAreaPath>\UUCP\COMP\BINARY\IBM\PC\@.SQ?

	Changed TREE specification to create names like:
	     <NewAreaPath>\UUCP\COMP\BINARY\IBM\PC\*.MSG or
	     <NewAreaPath>\UUCP\COMP\BINARY\IBM\PC.SQ?

	Also, TREE/TREEDIR file name conversion in SqaFix/OS2 will split
	the path if the target file system does not support long file
	names, for example, ALT.BINARIES.MULTIMEDIA.EROTICA goes in:
	     <NewAreaPath>\ALT\BINARIES\MULTIMEDIA\EROTICA on HPFS or
	     <NewAreaPath>\ALT\BINARIES\MULTIMED\IA\EROTICA on FAT

	- Fixed problem with ;NewAreaPlace at the very end of the file
	without a newline character

	- Fixed problem with netmail message attributes to an unknown nodes.
	Now they will be set to the 'DefaultNodeFlags' specification.

	- Fixed problem with sending echoarea rule files for areas
	with HPFS file names

	- Fixed problem with forwarded request being sent to the uplink
	with the same address as the requesting node


23/Oct/97, v0.99 -- bugfixes mostly...

a4      - Added -q<file> command line switch to override queue file name

	- Added 'AddTearLine' keyword wich forces tearline in netmail
	messages if 'AddOrigin' keyword is not specified.

	- ^aPID kludge will now be added to all messages generated by SqaFix

	- Improved code which loads area description and area mask files to
	make these faster when processing huge files like usenet newsgroups.

	- Fixed problem with downlink sending an unlink request for an area
	which has been requested for it, but not yet created. Now the downlink
	will be gracefully removed from the forwarded request queue.

	- Fixed problem with World mask not being recognized in Squish
	Pack statements.

	- Fixed problem with -0 flag in NewAreaFlags being ignored when
	autocreating areas for forwarded requests.


24/Jul/97, v0.99 -- echo area rules support is here

a3      - Added %RULES <area|areamask> remote request which allows
	nodes to request rules for an area or areas matching mask.

	- Added +I node flag to specify nodes which will receive rules
	when linking to the area with +I flag set

	- Added +I[file] echoarea flag to specify the associated rule
	file. If file is not specified, default <msgbase>.rul will be used.

	- Help info for %HELP will now be sent in a separate message.

	- Added +Y node flags to prevent Notify command messages and
	area status change notifications to be sent to the node

	- Improved report display for very long areatags. Thanks Uwe.

	- IMPORTANT: changed Squish.Cfg EchoArea links scanning logic:
	previously for the short address specification SqaFix started
	scanning links using its primary address for the beginning.
	Now it also scans all the addresses specified in -x,-p and -+
	flags and uses the last such address when beginning to scan links
	specification. If any of your Squish.cfg EchoArea links don't start
	with the full address, this may result in different link address.
	Hint: in order to quickly catch this create all links report with
	'SqaFix Report .' command using previous and new SqaFix versions and
	compare the output for differences.

	- Fixed problem with %CREATE message not being sent to freq node
	even if it has +F flag set. Thanks Victor.


03/Jul/97, v0.99 -- readonly areas support is finally here!

a2      - Added support for readonly areas. If areagroup for a node is
	specified in lowercase, all areas in this group will be made
	readonly when linking up this node.

	- Added optional rescan request limit specification in the -R flag
	of the Node and DefaultNodeFlags keywords to specify max number
	of areas to be rescanned during a single session for a given node.

	- Extended area linkup request functionality to support immediate
	area rescan if ',R' suffix is added after area or area mask
	specification. Thanks Uwe.

	- Extended %RESCAN remote request functionality to support areamasks.
	Also, if area specification is omitted, all areas linked or activated
	during current session will be rescanned. Thanks Uwe.

	- Added +N flags for a 'Node' keyword which specifies that all
	areas created by forwarded requests from this node should not
	be made passthru. Thanks Uwe.

	- Added +N flags for an 'UpLink' keyword which specifies that all
	areas created by forwarded requests to this uplink should not
	be made passthru. Thanks Uwe.

	- Added 'ForwardRequestKeepAreas' keyword to specify areamasks
	for forwarded request areas that should not be made passthru.

	- Fixed problem with Maint mode setting area max day/msgnumber/skip
	values to previous processed msgbase values if they were not specified
	explicitely for the current area.


19/Jun/97, v0.99 -- archiver change support is finally here!

a1      - Added support for the packer type change using the %COMPRESS
	remote request, related keyword 'AllowPackerRequest' and new
	node flag -S to control packer change on per node basis.

	- Added 'ForwardRequestRetryAll' which allows program to retry all
	other available uplinks which have the matching area if the first
	uplink failed to link area within the timeout period.

	- Added optional ^aREPLY kludge generation and 'UseREPLY' keyword
	to control it. Thanks Serge.

	- Added support for local node link/unlink to/from passthru areas.
	If you link one of your akas to an existing passthru are it will be
	made nonpassthu. Similarily, if you unlink your aka from nonpassthru
	area, it will be made passthru unless there are other akas linked.
	To make this logic work you'll need to add your aka to the Node list.

	- Removed check for locally sent messages which caused those
	"Loop msg ..." log entry and prevented local maintenance.

	- Removed check which required uplink to have at least one areamask
	specified so one can have unlink only uplinks. Thanks Tony.

	- Added DZ2NA utility which converts DZ area description files
	to NA format suitable for uplink areamask specifications.

	- Fixed problems with areatags with special characters like <>| and
	& for OS/2 being passed to the external programs without surrounding
	double quotas. Thanks Kirill.


21/May/97, v0.99 -- getting closer to 1.00 :)

a0      - Added group and level area access restrictions for the forwarded
	requests.

	- Added area status and group display in the %AVAIL area list

	- Added optional forwarded request limit specification in the -O flag
	of the Node and DefaultNodeFlags keywords to specify max number
	of outstanding forwarded requests allowed for node.

	- AreaFix requests will now be sent from the primary address unless
	specific address is specified for the uplink using -p<addr> switch.
	Previously the closest aka address was used. Thanks, Leo...

	- BadArea msgs matching refuse create mask will now be deleted.

	- SqaFix Maint run will not try to open passthru areas which results
	in area msg base files being created. Thanks, Victor...

	- When creating help report the first extension specified in the
	'HelpFileExt' keyword will be used as the default help file extension
	if no language is specified. Thanks, Victor...

	- Fixed problem with 'SqaFix Report' creating msgs with max 60 chars
	line length disregarding MaxMsgLineLength setting. Thanks, Oleg...

	- Fixed problem with NewArea path type not being set for node and
	area mask specific NewArea definitions with missing NewAreaPath
	specifications. Thanks, Sergei...


20/Apr/97, v0.98 -- BUG FIX...

a9	- Fixed that remote request password problem slipped in the previous
	  version so it could not process remote requests at all. Primary
	  SqaFix tester Alex Litvin is getting married next week so I
	  released it without his testing pass. Anyway, congratulations, Alex,
	  and GOOD LUCK to you and your family :)


19/Apr/97, v0.98 -- new features and bug fixes...

a8	- Added Sync command line command which syncs Squish and SqaFix
	  config file EchoArea lines.

	- Changed SqaFix config parser so that it will properly process
	  EchoArea lines which go after the Node lines. Also changed the
	  order of keywords in sample SqaFix config since most people like
	  to have EchoArea stuff at the end of the config

	- Echoarea lines for newly created areas will be formatted so that
	  the information past the area tag is aligned to the longest
	  areatag encountered.

	- Added check for duplicate area definitions in Squish.Cfg. Currently
	  SqaFix does not support this nice mostly unknown feature...

	- Fixed bug whith ForceINTL keyword causing problems when receiving
	  messages from zones other then primary one.


17/Apr/97, v0.98 -- new features and bug fixes...

a7      - NewAreaNotify, ForwardRequestNotify and IdlePassthruNotify
	  keywords now accept @filename specifications which allow you
	  to place these notification in files. If such file exists,
	  new lines are appended to it, so existing info is preserved.
	  Feeding this file to a packet creation utility (like txt2pkt)
	  you can post notifications to a passthru areas. Also you can
	  use it to create condensed event log if you run with DetailedLog
	  and find it too messy to review but still want to keep it for
	  troubleshooting.

	- When scanning BadArea for autocreation SqaFix will kill msgs
	  for the areas in the kill queue. Thanks, Leo.

	- Forwarded request and Idle Passthru notifications now may
	  have multiple areas reported in one message.

	- Added request forwarded and forwarded request expired notifications
	  in addition to the forwarded request will be expired notification

	- Added idle passthru destroyed notification in addition to
	  passthru will be destroyed notification.

	- Added passthru status parameter when calling Maint batch files.

	- Renamed keyword KeepIdlePassthru to IdlePassthruKeepAreas for
	  the consistency. Old keyword is still supported.

	- If you specify test mode command line switch -X in upper case,
	  the queue file will not be updated. Used for testing...

	- Fixed problem with -L node and area level not being set if
	  specified in the DefaultNodeFlags and DefaultAreaFlags.
	  Thanks Nick.

	- Fixed problem with the same area listed multiple times in %AVAIL
	  list if it is available from several uplinks. Thanks Oleg.

	- Reworked new area message base file name generation code and
	  hopefully fixed all the related bugs.


10/Apr/97, v0.98 -- new features and bug fixes...

a6      - Enabled all the assertion code to catch programming errors,
	  so this version is somewhat bigger and slower than previous
	  ones. Don't worry, this will be removed in release builds.

	- Added IdlePassthruIgnoreNodes keyword to specify links
	  wich will be ignored during idle passthru area detection.
	  Thanks Tony.

	- SqaFix Relink will not sent linkup requests for those areas
	  which are in the idle passthru queue. Thanks Alex.

	- Fixed bug which caused GPF if you have NewArea... =<addr> along
	  with NewArea... =<areamask>. Thanks Vitaly & Alexander.


04/Apr/97, v0.98 -- new features and bug fixes...

a5      - Added ReLink, ReFreq and ReKill command line commands.

	- The kill queue entries now have the uplink address the unlink
	  areafix request was sent to when unlinking idle passthru area.

	- Removed working buffer size limit on BadArea messages size.

	- Added -* flag for the UpLink keyword to optionally suppress
	  sending multiple areafix requests in one message.

	- Changed areafix generation logic to send multiple areafix requests
	  in a single message. As a result, parameter values for external
	  areafix requestors slightly changed. See SqaFix.Cfg for details.

	- Added -p<addr> flag for the UpLink keyword to specify the address
	  to send areafix requests to this uplink from. Thanks, Pavel.

	- Fixed bug with incorrect date set for freq queue entries converted
	  from kill entries. This happens when linkup request arrives for
	  recently destroyed idle passthru area.


01/Apr/97, v0.98 -- bug fixes...

a4	- Fixed bug with forward slash character being used as a valid
	  file name character in newly created area message base names.

	- Fixed bug with bombing out when appending the original message
	  text for very long remote request messages.


27/Mar/97, v0.98 -- new features and bug fixes...

a3      - Added new method of building new area names which makes up
	  an 8 character base name using hexadecimal CRC32 value of areatag.
	  Useful for those who have huge amount of echo areas. This method
	  is guaranteed to return unique path for a new area.

	- Added Maint command line command to run the maintenance mode in
	  which SqaFix will update the MaxMsg/SkipMsg/KeepDays settings to
	  the ones specified in Squish.Cfg and then run the programs listed
	  in the command line for every known area.

	- Added netmail path parameter when spawning external areafix request
	  processing program.

	- Added -f command line option to suppress link up request forwarding

	- For existing areas without description SqaFix will now use the one
	  found in area description files provided it exists.

	- Fixed bug in code responsible for selecting a closest network
	  address caused weird origin addresses used when creating manual
	  mode and autocreation report msgs if you have more then one aka.


25/Mar/97, v0.98 -- bug fixes...

a2      - Fixed serious bug in processing of 'KeepIdlePassthru' -- entries
	  in reference files were added into the 'ForewardRequestRefuse' list.

	- Added %PAUSE and %RESUME remote commands as aliases to %PASSIVE and
	  %ACTIVE commands respectively.

	- Added 'HelpFileExt' keyword which allows you to specify available
	  usage help file extensions.


23/Mar/97, v0.98 -- more features...

a1      - Extended area description list search to match grep-like areamask
	  if an exact match was not found.

	- All the 'NewArea...' keywords now can be set for the given
	  grep-like area mask using =<areamask> specification.

	- Added 'NewAreaRefuse' keyword to specify a list of areatag masks
	  which should never be created.

	- Added 'RescanPassthru' keyword which allows rescanning of the
	  passthru areas as some people asked for it ;)


21/Mar/97, v0.98 -- you've been waiting for it for so looooong! me2!!!

a0	- Implemented uplink request forwarding... finally :) See README
	  for implementation details and SqaFix.Cfg for related keywords.

	- Implemented idle passthru area detection and cleanup. See README
	  for implementation details and SqaFix.Cfg for related keywords.

	- New config file keyword 'QueueFile' specifies the SqaFix queue
	  file necessary to process forwarded requests and idle passthru
	  area maintenance.

	- New config file keyword 'SortAreaGroup' tells program to sort
	  areas by group, so now you can have the area lists not sorted,
	  sorted by group, sorted by tag, or sorted by group then by tag
	  depending on the combination of SortAreaGroup and SortAreaTag
	  keywords.

	- When opening mail folder SqaFix will create it if it does not
	  exist. Previously netmail, badarea and notification folders
	  had to exist before SqaFix could open them.

	- New area creation notifications will now be reported on a per
	  node basis, with all the areas created during particular
	  autocreate run by the single node in one message (unless it
	  exceeds the message size limit). Previously newly created
	  areas were reported in the separate messages.

	- Grep-like areatag masks are now supported for remote and command
	  line link/unlink/passive/active requests. The following symbols
	  are treated specially:

	      *        - match zero or more characters
	      ?	       - match any character
	      \	       - literally match the next character
	      [ae0-9]  - match a,e and 0 thru 9
	      [^ae0-9] - match anything but a,e and 0 thru 9

	- New config file keyword 'AreaListSaveFile' allows you to create
	  list of all known areas with descriptions in a NA format file.

	- New config file keyword 'AreaDescrSaveFile' allows you to save area
	  descriptions collected from files, specified in 'AreaDescrFileXX'
	  keywords, in a single NA format file.

	- New config file keywords 'AreaDescrFileNA' and 'AreaDescrFileDZ'
	  allow you to specify locations of the files with area tag and
	  descriptions usually distributed for echobackbones. This
	  descriptions will be used when autocreating new areas.

	  Two area description file formats are currently supported:
		NA: <tag><space><descr>
	  and
		DZ: [flag],<tag>,<descr>,<moderator name>,<moderator addr>,

	- Added command line commands summary help screen

	- Added new command line command 'Create' which creates specified
	  area and links it to the given node.

	- Added new command line command 'Destroy' which destroys specified
	  area and all its links.

	- Renamed 'PreserveDeletedAreas' keyword to 'PreserveDestroyedAreas'.
	  Old keyword is still supported.

	- Renamed '%DELETE' area remote command to '%DESTROY' area.
	  Old command is still supported.

	- Linked node address lists will now start with a full address to
	  make sure both Squish and SqaFix interpret incomplete address
	  specifications identically.

	- Message arrival date/time is now set to message creation time
	  on all newly created messages to prevent those message purgers
	  for accidentally deleting them. Previously it was set to zero...

	- Fixed problem with origin line sometimes not being stored in
	  messages send to a *.SQD netmail folder

	- Fixed problem with multiple %CREATE requests processing in
	  a *.SQD netmail folder

	- Fixed problem with -bNN command line option causing file i/o
	  errors if set to value greater then 32Kb

	- Fixed problem which caused incorrect modification of both cfg
	  files when deleting areas with %DELETE% remote request and
	  'PreserveDeletedAreas" keyword in effect.

	- Fixed problem with "Not being able to generate unique msgid stamp"
	  on some machines under OS/2

	- Fixed problem with not being able to post notification messages
	  to areas with HPFS file names under OS/2


09/Jun/95, v0.97b -- buxfixes

a2	- Fixed problem which caused truncated msgid stamp to be written
	  into the message often resulting some dupe messages reported.
	  In fact, I could not duplicate this problem no matter how hard
	  I tried, so finally I just changed the code which is suspected
	  to be the reason of this problem.

	- Fixed problem with extended DOS/DPMI version loader caused it
	  not to run running under Windows'95 beta releases


06/May/95, v0.97b -- supposed to be a maintenance release... bugfixes mostly

a1	- Improved ^aMSGID kludge stamp generation logic. This will
	  hopefully stop those damned dupes produced by pervious releases
	  of the program. Thanks to KirillL and YuryS.

	- Fixed bug which caused SqaFix not to write the autocreated
	  EchoArea statements without existing EchoArea or ;NewAreaPlace
	  keywords in any of the *.CFG files. Thanks to BorisP and AlexP.

	- Inline comments in EchoArea statements in both Sqiush and SqaFix
	  cfg files will now be properly handled. Previous versions did not
	  allow them at all. Thanks to SergejQ.


01/Apr/93, v0.96b -- you've been waiting for it for so looooong! me2!!!

a6	- Added code to remove trailing spaces from every line read from
	  a config file. Those unspotted spaces caused various problems
	  if left there by your text editor. Thanks Markus.

a5	- New keyword: 'IgnoreKeyword' instructs SqaFix to ignore specified
	  keywords in the configuartion file. This allows various third party
	  utilities to store their info in the same config file. Thanks Boris

	- New feature: the node sysop name may be optionally specified
	  in the Node statement. SqaFix will use this name when generating
	  messages to this node on its own. Thanks Kai.

	- From now on SqaFix is available in DPMI protected mode version,
	  executable file name is SqaFixX.Exe -- useful for those who run
	  many conferences but still not switched to OS/2 protected mode.

	  To run SqaFixX you have to have external DPMI host available,
	  following hosts are known to work correctly:

		MS Windows 3.10 Enhanced Mode DosBox
		OS/2 2.00 DosBox (Set Settings/DPMI_SERVICES to Enabled)
		QuarterDesk QDPMI.SYS v1.01
		Borland DPMIRES.EXE

	- New keywords 'SwapPath', 'SwapEMS' and 'SwapXMS' control swap
	  behaviour. The 'SwapPath' specification may be overridden using
	  the SQAFSWAP environment variable. Applies to real mode DOS only

	- When spawning Squish to do area rescans real mode DOS SqaFix
	  will now optionally swap itself out to disk, EMS or XMS memory.
	  Thanks to Ralf Brown's great SPAWNO library.

a4      - The RescanCommand code has been reworked in attempt to cure
	  that weird "Rescan failed -- system error" message popped out
	  from time to time on some OS/2 installations...

	- NewAreaPath TREE option now works a little bit different when
	  applied to the Squish style areas: for area tags looking like
	  this UUCP.BIN.IBM.PC it creates message base file name:
	  X:\M\UUCP\BINARY\IBM\PC\@.SQ? (was X:\M\UUCP\BINARY\IBM\PC.SQ?),
	  which matches the way it will work for the *.msg style area:
	  X:\M\UUCP\BINARY\IBM\PC\*.MSG

	- NewAreaPath HPFSDIR option allows you to have all the newly
	  created squish message bases placed in the separate directories.
	  For "tidy-up" fanatics from Hannover (hear me, Markus?)

	- Whoops! The '+' character was treated as a valid DOS file name
	  character when creating an area base file name from the area
	  tag. Fixed, thanks Kirill.

	- SqaFix now will send only one copy of the help file even
	  if multiple %HELP lines are specified in the request message.
	  Thanks Jan.

	- New keyword ';NewAreaPlace' (note the leading semicolon!)
	  allows you to control where to place the newly created area
	  definitions in both Sqafix.Cfg and Squish.Cfg. If this keyword
	  is found in the config file all the newly created area definitions
	  will go past it. if it's omitted they will be placed the old way,
	  that is before the very EchoArea line

	- New keyword 'SortAreaTag' instructs SqaFix to sort areas
	  by the areatag when creating reports. Note that this does
	  not affect the order of the area definitions in the config
	  files. Thanks Dmitry

a3	- Fixed bug when '%' character in area description was
	  sometimes treated as a printf formatting character.
	  Thanks Andrew

	- Fixed bug introduced in 0.96a1 when SqaFix generated
	  origin lines with a missing leading space. Thanks Egons

a2	- When generating report messages SqaFix will now wrap the
	  long area descriptions at the position specified by the
	  MaxMsgLineLength keyword

	- New keyword MaxMsgPartLength controls size of the report
	  message parts. Note that this should not be greater than
	  working buffer size

	- SqaFix will now properly handle the messages sent from the
	  fakenet points even if they have the ^aFMPT/^aTOPT kludge
	  specified

	- SqaFix will not more flag the domain specification in the
	  Address keyword of Squish.Cfg as the invalid address
	  specification

	- New feature -- when subscribing the downlink node to the
	  area SqaFix may optionally (if -F flag set for this node)
	  send it a %CREATE <areatag> <areadescr> remote request thus
	  forcing the area creation. Thanks Alex.

	- SqaFix now accepts LINKED as an alias to QUERY for both
	  commands and remote requests

a1	- Modified areatag to message base file name conversion logic:
	  now you may choose between old style conversion when program
	  used new area tag to build truncated eight character base name,
	  new style when program creates directory tree out of the dot
	  separated areatag (thanks Heinz), or HPFS when it only removes
	  the characters not valid in OS/2 HPFS file names (thanks Markus).

	- New node flags: !C and !D control processing of the %CREATE and
	  %DELETE requests sent from this node.

	- New remote request: %CREATE <areatag> <"description">
	  allows trusted nodes to create areas at your system.
	  Nice thing about it is that the echo hub or boss system
	  may create areas with the specified description. Thanks Alex.

	- New remote request: %DELETE <areatag> allows trusted node
	  to delete areas at your system. You may choose to completely
	  delete associated EchoArea's entries from config files and
	  remove the message base files, or just to comment EchoArea
	  statements out making deleted areas invisible to both SqaFix
	  and Squish but leaving message base files intact

	- New report type: lists unlinked and passive areas for the
	  given node. Activated with UNLINKED command or request

	- New feature: all the NewArea... settings can be specified
	  on per creating node basis. This greatly helps in multizone
	  environments when the area flags , autolink and notification
	  lists may be quite different

	- New feature: node and area levels, allows you to control node
	  access to the area within the group. This makes area access
	  control a lot more flexible.

	- New command line switch -o overrides area access restrictions
	  making the node link management a bit easier in some cases.

	- When generating messages SqaFix will now properly determine
	  the originating address based on the aka list zone matching
	  or -p<node> flag if specified for the notification echo area

	- New keyword 'UseFullAddr' forces link network addresses to
	  be written in the full zone:net/node[.point] form instead of
	  short (normalised to the previous address specification) one.
	  This helps to cope with Squish's -p flag in EchoArea lines.

	- New keyword 'UseMSGID' instructs SqaFix to insert ^aMSGID
	  kludge in all the automatically generated messages so that
	  it's (almost) guaranteed that there will not be identical
	  messages created by the program in quite reasonable time

	- New keyword 'UseINTL' instructs SqaFix to always insert ^aINTL
	  kludge. Without this keyword it adds ^aINTL kludge only if
	  necessary -- that is if origination and/or destination address
	  are different from the primary aka zone.

	- New keyword 'AddOrigin' instructs program to add the tear and
	  origin lines to all the automatically generated netmail messages.
	  Unlike the previous versions this one will NOT add tear line
	  if you don't specifically request it and if it does, it will
	  add it along with origin line. Note that tear/origin lines are
	  always added to the notification messages posted into the echo
	  areas. Thanks Alex.

	- SqaFix will not more miss the next past deleted request message
	  when scanning squish style netmail folder. Thanks Gerard.

	- SqaFix will not more interpret the trailing hidden
	  info (^aVia etc.) as the remote message requests. For those
	  weird types who use routed mail to send requests to SqaFix :)

	- Fixed that infamous 'grunged date' bug caused Squish
	  to bark on some of the automatically generated messages

	- Fixed stupid bug in processing of the /b command line switch.
	  Now you can specify any work buffer size from 1 to 64K. This
	  affects max. config file line length (not longer than 32k even if
	  buffer size is greater), max. length of the message SqaFix can
	  process (up to 64k)

	- When autocreating new areas SqaFix will now properly
	  handle the leading spaces preceding the area tag
	  specification in the AREA: message kludge. Although
	  the FSC standard does not allow these spaces, some
	  older software still inserts them.

	- In addition to the 'IgnoreMsgsFrom' list SqaFix will now
	  ignore all the messages sent from one if its aka's. This
	  prevents endless loop when SqaFix replies to its own message,
	  processes its own reply replying again... etc. nasty one!

	- Fixed bug in 'IgnoreMsgsFrom' code. Now should work as expected
	  Also its logic has been changed to the prefix match, as opposed
	  to the exact string match as it was previously. So now you may
	  specify MsgTrack and SqaFix will ignore every message with the
	  from name beginning with MsgTrack, that is MsgTrack 3.30, etc.
	  Thanks Dmitry.


23/Mar/92, v0.95b -- from now on SqaFix is available for both DOS and OS/2

	- minor source code fixes for Microsoft C compilation,
	  the distribution archive now contains the protected
	  mode version of SqaFix, functionally identical to
	  the real mode one. It was extensively tested under
	  OS/2 1.3 and 2.0 beta 304, however it should run on
	  any OS/2 system above version 1.2


21/Mar/92, v0.94b -- still in beta, cosmetic changes and bug fixes

	- Those information "Scanning ..." lines now are not written
	  in the log, thus making it much shorter since idle runs will
	  not be logged.

	- The 'Report' command output has been modified, now it lists
	  all the existing echo areas with linked node addresses instead
	  of just using the %LIST command code output.

	- The 'NewAreaNotify' line now accepts the echo area tag so that
	  the new area creation notification messages may be send not
	  only to the particular node by netmail but also posted into
	  the echo mail areas.

	- SqaFix now uses the SQUISH environment variable if specified.
	  Set this to the name and path of Squish config file. When
	  SqaFix is run, it checks the environment variable and if it's
	  defined, program will expect to find the SqaFix.Cfg in the
	  same directory as Squish.Cfg. However, the -c and -s command
	  lines switches always override the environment setting.

	- SqaFix used to cross link areas generating identical base file
	  names for newly created areas which have more then 8 leading
	  characters of the area tag the same. Fixed... thanks Andrew!

	- SqaFix sometimes used to report 'Invalid PATH line' if autocreating
	  areas for nodes which are not described in SQAFIX.CFG. Although i
	  could not re-create this bug exactly, i sincerely hope that it's
	  gone since this part of the code got re-written.

	- Since the new area autocreation for point nodes is not possible
	  due to some technical reasons, the program now will not allow
	  the +A flag to be specified for the point nodes.

	- When quoting the original remote request message text the tear
	  and origin lines will not be included since this can probably
	  confuse some other mail processors. Thanks Dmitry!


07/Feb/92, v0.93b -- looks like we're close to the final release!

	- New keyword 'NewAreaNotify' defines a list of nodes
	  which should be informed of the new area creation.

	- New command 'Report' allows you to send all the existing
	  links report to the specified node address. Helpful when
	  you'd like to keep your *EC informed. Thanks Max!

	- program now assumes -M (report by a message) switch specified
	  for the HELP, NOTIFY and REPORT commands. I have no idea why
	  it was not so right from the start :-)

	- All the information text previously displayed via standard
	  output device is now written to the standard error device.
	  The created messages text still goes to a standard output so
	  you can optionally redirect it to a file...


27/Jan/92, v0.92b -- back to coding and here it is... major update!

	- Implemented the areas autocreate feature. Check the
	  sample SQUISH.CFG and READ.ME file for details of its
	  operation.

	- In some cases SqaFix failed to give the reply message
	  flavour specified in the 'Node' statement, setting
	  only the default 'Pvt/Local' message attributes. Fixed.

	- The list of echomail areas should be the same in both
	  SqaFix and Squish config files.  Previous versions were
	  happy if the area was defined only in the Squish.Cfg and
	  is unknown to SqaFix. This is not so any more...

	- Most manual mode commands can now be entered in a short
	  form.  Generally only the first letter is required...

	- New manual mode command NOTIFY allows you to inform all
	  known nodes (that is described in SqaFix.Cfg) about
	  their linked/available areas at once.  Sort of a global
	  %LIST command.

	- The %HELP request now allows you to specify language. The
	  first three characters past the %HELP command will be used
	  as a usage file extension. That is '%HELP Russian' will
	  send help from the file SQAFIX.RUS.  If the file with the
	  specified extension is not available, the default
	  SQAFIX.USE will be sent provided it exists.


13/Jan/92, v0.91b -- OK, that's Monday, 13th, anyway... let it go!

	- The subsequent 'Address' lines if specified in the Squish.Cfg
	  file caused SqaFix to terminate with 'Different primary AKA'
	  message. Fixed... thanks Nick!

	- When intentionally updating echo area specifications in the
	  Squish.Cfg (using the -u switch), SqaFix eat up the rest of
	  the line past the end of the area tag for all the areas
	  not described in SqaFix.Cfg... Fixed, thanks Nick!

	- SqaFix used to write a null byte between the message text
	  and origin line in the message body. This caused problems
	  with certain netmail packers... fixed.

	- New keyword 'KeepFailedRequests' allows you to control
	  the way SqaFix handles messages from unknown nodes and
	  with invalid passwords

	- New keyword 'IgnoreMsgsFrom' allows you to tell SqaFix
	  to ignore requests sent from the certain names. Suppose
	  the SqaFix reply gets bounced by some sort of message
	  tracker like MsgTrack or TrackM, and arrives back, SqaFix
	  responds, other side bounces... Gee, things get kinda
	  repetitive here! Wish all automatic message generators
	  implement this sort of feature. Suggested by Andrew Kovalev.

	- Implemented remote rescan request support for those who
	  are trustful enough to let it be processed :-)

	- Max2Sq utility is included into the package to help you
	  to convert Max 2.0 area definitions to the SqaFix/Squish
	  configuration file format

	- SqaFix now will not insist on the echo area description
	  to be specified

	- major code clean up for future improvements...


11/Jan/92, v0.90b -- first released to beta team.. whoops!
