Subject: BugList #2 October 2001
Hey, all! A while back, I was preparing to send Uncle Dave a
current bug list, but got sidetracked by other matters. I'm ready
to give this another go if ya'll are.
It took me a while, but I finally found the last buglist we put
together. (I thought I lost it, to be honest. :-) This time I
*will* send it to Dave! I'll do so in a couple of weeks to give
ya'll a chance to add or comment about this list.
See ya'll around! :-)
============================================================
BugList #1 August 1999
#01 FROM Tom Burleigh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Since inception of Net-Tamer READER, lines cut off after
character 256 in a message's line messages and replying.
============================================================
BugList #1 August 1999
#02 FROM hammer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Net-Tamer deletes email on the ISP mailbox when it times
out, resulting in loss of email.
============================================================
BugList #1 August 1999
#03 FROM Walter Scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
When replying to CC email with ctrl-R, "/CC" is not placed
after the email address in the first line, like it is when a
reply is generated with R.
============================================================
BugList #1 August 1999
#04 FROM Walter Scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Experiences with Alt-ESC freezing Net-Tamer with F10 the
only way to get out. (From Tom: could this be due to a wait
loop in the PPP protocol waiting for something that never
happens?) Worked correctly in 1.08(slowly), 1.09(quickly),
1.10(quirky). Started in 1.11.2; is in latest beta.
============================================================
BugList #1 August 1999
#05 FROM Walter Scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
In palmtop version READER, header information getting
garbled on screen. (Ex., when the "Path:" line in a message
is too long, that text trails off onto the line below where
other information is subsequently but partially written over
top of the trailing path information)
============================================================
BugList #1 August 1999
#06 FROM Walter Scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Since palmtop version 1.09 READER, line 19, the line above
the status bar, remains blank instead of showing text from
the web page currently on the screen.
============================================================
BugList #1 August 1999
#07 FROM Walter Scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
In READER, when using the <W>rite command, a "References:"
line is created which duplicates the "References:" line of a
previous <R>eply.
============================================================
BugList #1 August 1999
#08 FROM Walter Scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Since version 1.10 READER. On non-VGA XT/286 CGA or
EGA-equiped systems, when using high intensity foreground
colors, text flashes in data entry fields.
============================================================
BugList #1 August 1999
#09 FROM Walter Scott<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Net-Tamer does not allow websites to use cookies previously
dropped on the user's hard drive by such websites in order
to maintain profile data. (i.e. cookies that contain the
user's preferences or account settings for a website) (We
conceede that this may be a wish list item depending on
whether or not Net-Tamer is intended to work this way.)
============================================================
BugList #1 August 1999
#10 FROM Walter Scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Form buttons do not properly expand for data field sizes and
types. (Ex.,highly qualified search requests activated by a
GO button, response to online polls, etc.)
============================================================
BugList #1 August 1999
#11 FROM Walter Scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Blank lines in messages are not quoted in replies.
============================================================
BugList #1 August 1999
#12 FROM Walter Scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
In READER at the delete older messages dialog box, Net-Tamer
interprets the ESC key as a signal to change the deletion
default and therefore causes the software to act on a YES
default if a NO default existed at the time the user pressed
ESC. Pressing ESC again on the number of messages to be
deleted results in Net-Tamer assuming ENTER has been pressed
with the outcome that the numeric value is accepted and
deletion occurs.
============================================================
BugList #1 August 1999
#13 FROM Richard Ehrler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
When a message is deleted in an indexed dlu or pru, last
part
of previous message is deleted.
============================================================
BugList #1 August 1999
#14 FROM Richard Ehrler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
In latest beta, g&s.exe included in zip file lock up
Net-Tamer. Problem workaround involves using g&s.exe from
prior version.
============================================================
BugList #1 August 1999
#15 FROM Ken Scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Since NT 1.10.1, for online Telnet sessions, ctrl-key
sequences passed to remove computer take 8-10 seconds to be
blasted across. Makes using remote programs running on
Telnet host fustrating, if not impossible, to use.
============================================================
BugList #1 August 1999
#16 FROM "Mark @ Cross+Road's" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
When web browsing online, NT will stop after downloading a
web page, but resumes processing if [ESC] is pressed.
(Suspect NT maybe waiting for something from ISP that isn't
happening.)
============================================================
BugList #1 August 1999
#17 FROM Tom Willmon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
In READER, when making a quoted reply to a message that has
header-like text in the body of the message, this text and
some following text does not make it to the quoted reply.
(Does this for all editors.)
============================================================
BugList #1 August 1999
#18 FROM Tom Willmon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
In READER, when viewing a message, UP arrow moves up two
lines instead of one. PAGE UP sometimes goes back two
messages.
============================================================
BugList #1 August 1999
#19 FROM Walter Scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
In READER, message subject headers of some newly downloaded
messages are blank when the message is read. Deleting the
.ieu index file and reindexing restores header information
to those messages. This problem applies only when new
messages are downloaded to a .DLU file containing previously
stored messages. NOTE: This problem is intermittent; no
known consistent causative factors.
============================================================
BugList #1 August 1999
#20 FROM (Contributer lost.)
Net-Tamer external editor setup in user defaults, if you
edit the user defaults later on for any reason, the command
line switch for the external editor is lost when you save
the revised settings. This is true even though you have not
selected "M" to change the editor.
============================================================
BugList #1 August 1999
#21 FROM "Ronald C. Dailey" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
In the beta of 7-26-99, reports an ERROR-63 when trying to
access NETTAMER.DOC or any of the key files using F1, except
in READER.
============================================================
BugList #1 August 1999
#22 FROM Justin Philips <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
In message subject box, need some way to generate a blank
subject line. Some mail servers require nothing in the
subject line which means we must edit it before sending the
message.
============================================================
BugList #1 August 1999
#23 FROM Justin Philips <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
The caracter "/" is not accepted in the message subject
entry box.
============================================================
BugList #1 August 1999
#24 FROM Justin Philips <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
While replying to a message, you cannot press escape to
bring up the address list for additional receipients unless
you deleted the address that is pulled in there. Doing so
only asks if you want to add the address to the address
list.
============================================================
BugList #3 July 2001
#25 FROM Mark in Clinton TWP MI USA <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
When you are using the alt-G function to save a line of text
to a file that after the save is done, the program returns
you to the start of that message and not placing you right
where you left off reading!
============================================================
The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard.
