Subject: lftp-2.0.0 - reliable command line driven ftp client
Date: Thu, 17 Jun 1999 00:45:25 GMT
=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
Major news since last version (1.2.4):
* command `module' to load shared objects at runtime
* autoloading modules for protocols and for some commands (only mirror now)
To built with modules use `configure --with-modules'.
* remote globbing redesigned, now the wildcards are matched locally
* ftp over ipv6 support (uses EPSV/EPRT - RFC2428)
* NT directory listing parser added
* socks support (configure --with-socks)
* http protocol support (via ipv6 too)
Other news:
* cmd:verbose - show command's summary even in non-interactive mode.
* command `lpwd'.
* command `glob' to do globbing: e.g. `glob echo *'.
* command `chmod'.
* since `glob' now exists, `cat', `more', `zcat', `zmore' commands do not
do globbing themself now; use `glob cat', or make alias `cat' -> `glob cat'.
* mirror -R can now set permission on remote files, if server supports
SITE CHMOD.
* try all addresses of multihomed hosts.
* finally implemented automatic cache invalidation on certain operations.
* set now prints only altered settings, use set -a to see all
* argument for `wait' is now optional. It waits for last bg job by default.
* redial-interval is renamed to reconnect-interval
* ftp:timeout and some others are renamed to net:... to be shared with http.
you can still set them without net: prefix.
* dns:timeout renamed to dns:fatal-timeout.
Bug fixes:
* fixed bug with url special chars @/: encoding in user name and password
* fixed bug with symbolic ports on little-endian machines
* fixed bug with wrong ETA in pget
* fixed bug which caused file times set by mirror to be non-precise.
* fixed `quote' for certain commands, e.g. `quote stat .'.
* fixed `ftpcopy' for the case of `set ftp:passive-mode yes'

=====BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE=====
COMMERCIAL: ZMech 0.4.01 - Extendable visual CASE tool
Description
ZMech is a complete visual CASE tool that allows complex event driven
systems to be interactively designed and debugged using the state
machine paradigm.
Features
* Extremely powerful visual editing interface that allows easy editing
across files using multiple overlapping windows. The graphics objects
drawn and edited using the interface have built in intelligence and
react to the mouse and each other so as to maximize user productivity
and reduce tedious repetitive setup sequences (see IPAD features for
more information on the visual edit capabilities available to the
developer).
* Out of the box ZMech allows highly complex systems to be:
o Interactively described through state diagrams.
o Translated into a form suitable for direct execution by
another system
(e.g. an embedded micro controller or other event driven
system such as a GUI system).
o Combined with user written C / C++ and assembler source
o Interactively debugged by running the generated code together
with the user supplied code against the original state
diagrams.
* ZMech allows complex interacting subsystems (e.g. communication
protocol in a multiprocessor system) to be modelled as separate state
machines and debugged concurrently.
* ZMech allows the user to build libraries of debugged self contained
state machines that can then be used as components in other systems
* The interface between ZMech and the executable state machine to which
it is linked is directly accessible by the developer. This allows the
state machine to be immediately recompiled as a standalone program
capable of taking control of the task it was designed to do with very
few modifications.
* Built using the multiplatform IPAD-Pro core it is completely
configurable and extendable (the XEBOT package and various animated
demos available from the same site show how this can easily be done).
Examples
crisis - priority encoder state machine
This is a ready to run example incorporating four interacting state
machines produced using ZMech.
ZMech, XEBOT and IPAD are currently available for Linux 2.0.x (Intel),
Solaris 2.5 (SPARC), OS/2, MS Windows (NT, 95, 98 and 3.1) and MSDOS.
ZMech, XEBOT and IPAD can be obtained from:
http://www.demon.co.uk/titan
Animated demos showing user / GUI interaction, state machine traces
and dialog building can be obtained from:
http://www.demon.co.uk/titan/DEMO
(BEWARE: some demos seem to run slowly when viewed using
some versions of Internet Explorer)
Changes since version 0.3.0
Added ability to work on 8, 16 and 24 bit colour
X servers without the need for private colour map.
Fixed obscure line end problem.
Found and fixed a strange elusive X11 window problem that
would cause the app to segv.
Greatly improved redrawing speed of self contained state
machines in multi state machine diagram during tracing.
Fixed incomplete frame control in control template.
Faster character drawing under X11.
New grid support.
New guide line support.
New window manager dialog.
New context editor dialog.
New XPE source code editor and browser.
New module support.
New method support.
Code object context access via 'this' (like C++).
New multiple concurrent shells in seperate windows.
New frame divider support.
Added much more info to file selector.

THE EVOLUTION OF FAX STANDARDS AND STANDARDS
George Pajari,
Director of Engineering - Faximum Software
Abstract
Much to the chagrin of Nicholas Negroponte, fax technology has become an
indispensible part of our modern world. This talk is intended for a
technical audience and will detail the evolution of fax communications
standards from prehistory through to the current store-and-forward and
real-time Fax-over-IP (FoIP) standards. Also covered will be the
parallel development of image compression algorithms and fax software
products including the integration of fax, email, and the web.
The nuances of fax nomenclature will also be discussed including: Group
3 vs Class 3; T.4 vs T.6; 1-D vs 2-D. Related questions such as "How can
I send faxes free over the Internet?", "Whatever happened to Group 4
fax?", and "Why Negroponte doesn't get it" will be addressed. One or two
of the fax software products that Faximum has developed for Linux might
be mentioned in passing.
About the Speaker:
George Pajari has been working with UNIX for more than twenty years and
set up the first commercial UNIX system in Canada in 1979. Before
co-founding Faximum Software, George worked as a UNIX consultant to such
organisations as Altos Computers, AT&T, BC Tel, EXPO 86,
Northwestern Telephone, the U.S. Navy, and The World Bank.
George is currently the President and Director of Engineering of Faximum
Software, a company dedicated exclusively to developing fax server
software for UNIX/Linux systems -- technology that has been OEMed by
companies such as Sun Microsystems and Hewlett-Packard. He is the author
of numerous articles on UNIX as well as the book "Writing UNIX Device
Drivers" commissioned and published by Addison-Wesley and since
translated into French and Japanese.
George is also a BJCP beer judge as well as a formally trained craft
brewer and has been nominated for membership to the Institute of Brewing
in London.
No-Host Dinner
You can also meet the speaker at a no-host dinner before the talk. Meet
us at 6:00 PM at Earl's, 4361 Kingsway in Burnaby. All are welcome, but
please let me know if you plan to join us so I can ask for a table of
appropriate size. For more information, please contact:
