Announcing minicom 1.74
Minicom is a communications program that resembles the MSDOS Telix
somewhat. It has a dialing directory, color, full ANSI and VT100
emulation, an (external) scripting language and more.
Minicom 1.74 has no major new features but is a mere "bug-fix release".
There was a security hole in the code that reads the configuration
files. This has been fixed. PLEASE UPGRADE IF MORE THAN ONE PERSON (YOU)
HAS ACCESS TO MINICOM ON YOUR SYSTEM.
There was a 1.73 version for a short while but it has a subtle
bug in the configuration file read and write routines.
Minicom-1.74.tar.gz is in /pub/Linux/Incoming in sunsite at the
moment. It will be moved to /pub/Linux/apps/comm shortly.
