>
> New Features:
>
> - David Lounsberry sent in mh/bin/ical_load and mh/code/public/ical.pl.
This
> code allows unix users to create mh events based on ical calander program
> entries, like mh/bruce/outlook.pl and mh/bin/outlook_read does on Windows.
>
> - David also sent in an example of how to log and plot data to/from a
Round
> Robin Database (rrd), using rrdtool, which is available on both unix and
> Windows. David has plots from is iButton temperature logs at
> http://dittos.yi.org/automation/plots/temps.html . See
> mh/code/public/README.txt rrd* entries for more info.
>
> - Kieran Ames came up with the idea of a programable timer. To enable,
> delete the old timers_*.pl members and copy in the new
> mh/code/test/timers.pl member. This will enable tk and web menu fields
that
> you can enter timer time and text into.
>
> - Doug suggested a get_email enhancement that allows for browsing mh
> monitored email from a web browser. One weeks worth of email is stored (by
> day, as html files) for each account in a new data/email dir. In addition
an
> html.latest member shows just the email that has not been received yet.
> Added a 'Email Received' link to the default we menu.
>
> - Added a mh.ini password_protect_dir parm, so that specified web
> directories can only be viewed by browsers logged in with the correct
> password. By default the /data and /email directories are protected.
>
> - David Norwood sent in an update to support long X10 strings that include
> bright/dim data (e.g. XA1A-100A+40).
>
> - Bill Sobel added X10_Switchlinc as a child class of X10_Item. We also
> added support for recognizing long incoming X10 strings, like XK1KJKJKJ
> Switchlinc 3 push strings by allowing for > 2 passes in X10 string
merging.
>
> - A number of changes to web server to support various browsers (e.g.
object
> and vars without $, list:last_response?category). A mh/web/wap directory
has
> some wap phone examples.
>
> - Allow for multiple iButton adaptors on multiple COM ports. If $port is
not
> specified on the methods/functions calls (e.g. new, monitor), it will
> default to the port used on the first iButton::connect call.
>
> - Added a bunch of file attachement mime options to &net_mail_send. See
> internet_mail.pl and/or mh/docs/mh.html for examples.
>
>
>
>
> Examples, Bug Fixes, and Minor Changes:
>
> - David Lounsberry sent in an iButton Device.pm update to loop on CRC
> errors. Craig Schaeffer sent in a Connection.pm timing adjustment.
>
> - Wally Kissel discovered File_Item read_random was not random on Windows.
>
> - Clive Freedman sent in a patch to bypass sendkeys_find_window for perl
> 5.6+
>
> - Brian Rigsby sent in mh/code/public/news_yahoo.pl.
>
> - Ray Dzek sent in some Caller_ID.pm updates for is number-only callerid
> modem.
>
> - Benny Miller discovered mh.exe did not run get_tv_grid due to a
> Win32::CopyFile problem.
>
> - Timothy Spaulding discovered a problem upper case ON/OFF not working in
> X10 Voice_Cmd strings.
>
> - Dropped $module from new X10_Item (not needed anymore). So, for example,
> you no longer need to specify a LM14 module when defining an X10_Item.
>
> - Added mh.ini no_log=save_state option, to turn off the 'Saving object
> states' message.
>
> - Added mh.ini get_url parm, to choose between simple or useragent LPW
> modules. Changed the default from useragent to simple, since more people
> were having problems with useragent.
>
> - Added a Testimonials section to the misterhouse.net web page.
>
> - Added 'list barcoded inventory' command to barcode_inventory.pl
>
> - Allow for local module.pm files in the user code_dir directory.
>
> - Allow for Group_Item X10_Item sets with ncpuxa and HomeBase (like CM11).
>
> - Change Web pull downs to default to the first item, rather than blank
>
> - The web SET and SET_VAR directives now do the same thing (can be used
for
> mh variables or objects).
>
> - A minor change to get_tv_grid (tv table format got messed up by a
> javascript).
>
> - Added a 'top' option to file_cat, for concatenating a file to the top
> (rather than bottom) of another file.
>
> - Added a $Dark flag (true before and after twighlight)
>
> - Set $Info{OS_name} to Win98 (rather than Win95) on Win98 systems.
>
> - Fixed the mh/code/common/mh_control.pl 'reboot the computer' option.
>
> - Updated install.html/install.txt (based off of a new install.pod file).
