Version Description
|
||
--------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
1.3.2 * Released 150824
|
||
|
||
* wmppp.app uses now the new library libdockapp that includes the old
|
||
wmgeneral library.
|
||
|
||
* Add note about libdockapp to INSTALL.
|
||
|
||
1.3.1 * Released 150519
|
||
|
||
* Now maintained by Window Maker Developers Team
|
||
<wmaker-dev@googlegroups.com>.
|
||
|
||
* Update Free Software Foundation address and GPL2 text
|
||
in COPYING.
|
||
|
||
* Remove getmodemspeed binary from source.
|
||
|
||
* Remove trailing whitespace.
|
||
|
||
* Add manpage (obtained from Debian package).
|
||
|
||
* Rename system wide fixed options configuration file
|
||
for consistency.
|
||
|
||
* Allow ISDN devices.
|
||
Users of ISDN dialup lines (such as me) cannot use
|
||
wmppp as shipped, because it rejects to use any
|
||
device except those beginning with `ppp'.
|
||
The patch attached solves this.
|
||
Based on the patch by Juan Cespedes <cespedes@debian.org> [1].
|
||
|
||
* Stampfile handling.
|
||
This patch adds support for "stampfile" in config
|
||
file, as described in manual page.
|
||
Based on the patch by Juan Cespedes <cespedes@debian.org> [1].
|
||
|
||
* Display speed in K when too high.
|
||
When the download speed is too high, wmppp can't
|
||
display it because it has only 5 digit. The most
|
||
significant digits are hidden !
|
||
This small patch display the speed in K when it is
|
||
too high.
|
||
Based on the patch by jguiton <jguiton@free.fr> [2].
|
||
|
||
* Use rm -f for make clean
|
||
This patch prevents "make clean" from failing when
|
||
the source tree is already clean.
|
||
|
||
* Use build flags.
|
||
Compile with CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS and do not
|
||
overwrite CFLAGS.
|
||
This enables the Debian package to be built with
|
||
hardening options. See [3].
|
||
|
||
* Update to latest version of wmgeneral library.
|
||
|
||
* Move source files to top directory.
|
||
This way, users need only type "make" to build
|
||
instead of needing to "cd wmppp" first.
|
||
|
||
* Fix spelling mistakes.
|
||
Used codespell -w.
|
||
|
||
* Reduce scope of several variables.
|
||
Fixes several "(style) The scope of the variable 'p'
|
||
can be reduced" found by cppcheck.
|
||
|
||
* Switch ifs to #ifs for macros.
|
||
Fixes "warning: null argument where non-null
|
||
required" compiler warnings by not passing NULL to
|
||
strdup and "(warning) Conversion of string literal
|
||
to bool always evaluates to true" found by cppcheck.
|
||
|
||
* Remove unused parameter from get_statistics().
|
||
Fixes "warning: unused parameter ‘devname’" compiler
|
||
warning.
|
||
|
||
* Replace deprecated caddr_t cast with void*.
|
||
|
||
* Replace deprecated usleep with nanosleep.
|
||
|
||
* Remove C++ style comments.
|
||
|
||
* Use #includes from include-what-you-use.
|
||
We actually include <sys/socket.h> instead of
|
||
<bits/socket_type.h>, as it returns an error: "Never
|
||
include <bits/socket_type.h> directly; use
|
||
<sys/socket.h> instead."
|
||
|
||
* Update Makefile. Main change is to use $(INSTALL)
|
||
instead of cp in install target along with $(DESTDIR)
|
||
variable. We also remove installation of user
|
||
~/.wmppprc config file -- this isn't useful for
|
||
sysadmins or package maintainers.
|
||
We also update INSTALL to reflect the changes.
|
||
|
||
* Fix segfault when HOME undefined.
|
||
Instead, we exit with an error message. This fixes Debian bug #716472
|
||
[4].
|
||
|
||
* Fix segfault if stop_action or start_action strings are NULL.
|
||
|
||
* Add new command line options.
|
||
We add command line options for the user to change the start, stop,
|
||
speed, ifdown, and stampfile settings at runtime. This closes a
|
||
Debian wishlist bug [5].
|
||
Note that, in order to have the command line options overwrite the
|
||
defaults set in the configuration file, we split the command line
|
||
parsing code into a new function (parse_cmdline()). We then merged
|
||
main() and wmppp_routine().
|
||
We document the new options in the help text and in the man page. We
|
||
also take the opportunity to reformat the help text for the -i option
|
||
and add the -geometry option to the man page.
|
||
|
||
* Reread configuration file.
|
||
Based in part on a patch by Chris Gray [6] to fix Debian bug #50181
|
||
[7].
|
||
|
||
* Command line options take precedence over configuration files.
|
||
Since we now reread the configuration files on occasion, the options
|
||
given at the command line could be overwritten. To avoid this, we
|
||
save the command line options and always use them if present.

|

|
||
|
||
|
||
1.3.0 * Released 980916
|
||
|
||
* WMPPP is almost completely rewritten, WMPPP is now
|
||
also based on the WMGeneral code core;
|
||
* WMPPP now parces arguments from it's rc files;
|
||
* Major overall code cleanup;
|
||
* Added a bytes/sec Speed-O-Meter;
|
||
* Commandline option for loadgraph/meter update speed;
|
||
* Added createXBMfromXPM (maskless .xpm);
|
||
* Geometry support has been added (finally);
|
||
* Some cosmetic changes to the GUI;
|
||
* Multiple ppp devices support (EXPERIMENTAL!);
|
||
* getmodemspeed.c now reads /etc/ppp/connect-errors,
|
||
and scans for both CARRIER and CONNECT;
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
1.2p1 * Released 980502
|
||
|
||
* Updated the docs, sorry, we forgot to update some
|
||
of them, due to some last minute changes in the code
|
||
the docs where incorrect on some parts (systemrc).
|
||
|
||
* Updated the Makefile because the systemrc files
|
||
went to the wrong location (due to above changes).
|
||
|
||
* Updated the WMPPP rc files, again, due to some last
|
||
minute changes in the code, WMPPP's rc files where
|
||
no longer working properly.
|
||
|
||
|
||
1.2 * Released 980429
|
||
|
||
* Completely revamped the WMPPP & WMiFS GUI :)
|
||
|
||
* Added 'forceleft, forcemiddle and forceright'
|
||
options in WMiFS for 'real' multiuser systems,
|
||
when 'force*' is detected in /etc/wmifsrc the
|
||
user settings in ~/.wmifsrc are overridden
|
||
(useful for sites where users may not fiddle
|
||
with pppd's options :)
|
||
|
||
* WMPPP: Ditto, added 'force' facility here too
|
||
|
||
* WMPPP: now correctly redisplays time when killed
|
||
and restarted
|
||
|
||
* WMPPP: timer now starts to run when the actual
|
||
connection is made
|
||
|
||
* WMPPP: added BAUD CONNECT value display
|
||
|
||
* WMPPP: added 'getmodemspeed', a SUID proggie to
|
||
read the CONNECT value from /var/log/messages
|
||
|
||
* WMPPP: dropped the config GUI and added an
|
||
.wmppprc file instead > motivation to do so:
|
||
this way, WMPPP is much more platform and
|
||
distribution independent :)
|
||
|
||
* WMPPP: enhanced the status LED, yellow means
|
||
dialing, green means online, red means error
|
||
|
||
* WMPPP: added -display commandline option
|
||
|
||
* WMPPP: added -t commandline option, default
|
||
the timer will display HH:MM, -t will display
|
||
MM:SS and switch to HH:MM after 60 minutes
|
||
|
||
* WMiFS: added support for all interfaces in
|
||
/proc/net/, now all interfaces are supported :)
|
||
|
||
* WMiFS: added -display commandline option
|
||
|
||
* WMiFS: added -w commandline option, this will
|
||
draw the graph in our new 'waveform' look :)
|
||
|
||
* WMiFS: fixed the coredump problems that occurred
|
||
on some systems with or without .wmifsrc file
|
||
typo's, errors, etc. in the .wmifsrc file are
|
||
now also being ignored/rejected, the worst
|
||
thing that can happen now is that the scripts
|
||
do not execute (i.e. luser error) ;-)
|
||
|
||
* WMiFS: when monitoring a ppp interface, bytes
|
||
are used to draw the graph, otherwise packets
|
||
|
||
* WMiFS: made the RX/TX/Status LED box identical
|
||
to the one in WMPPP, the right LED is the status
|
||
LED, green means interface is working, red means
|
||
error (interface down, NIC broken, etc.)
|
||
|
||
|
||
