Subject: ANN: Pan 0.10.0.91 Released
Date: Sun, 23 Sep 2001 00:41:48 CST
Pan 0.10.0.91, "Satin and Hilde", has been released. It can be found at
http://pan.rebelbase.com/.
What is Pan?
Pan is a newsreader, loosely based on Agent and Gravity, which
attempts to be pleasant to use for new and advanced users alike.
It has all the typical features found in newsreaders and also
supports offline newsreading, article filtering, multiple
connections, and a number of extra features for power users and
alt.binaries fans.
It's also the only Unix newsreader to get a perfect score on the
Good Net-Keeping Seal of Approval evaluations. See
http://pan.rebelbase.com/features.html for the rest of the sales
pitch.
About 0.10.0.91
The improbable version number is to indicate that this is a beta
between 0.10.0 and 0.10.1, without confusing RPM with sane,
human-readable phrases like "beta". Better solutions are
welcomed. :)
Changes between 0.10.0 and 0.10.0.91
NEW FEATURES
* No longer needs gtkhtml (which had a large list of
prerequisites): to display hotlinks and attached pictures.
* Added a second quote color for color-coding
>> One reply
> from another.
UPDATES
* Uses much less memory when decoding attachments.
BUG FIXES
* Fixed crash when importing an empty .newsrc file,
including on startup. Thanks to Derek Poon for first reporting
this problem and submitting a fix.
* Fixed crashes in the Task Manager dialog.
* Fixed crashes in the progressbar when using pixmapped
Gtk+ themes.
* Fix problem with the queue running away with the CPU
in 0.10.0.90. Thanks to Chris Vance for reporting this bug and
submitting a fix.
* Fixed problem with date header not being sent when
sending mail from Pan. Thanks to Derek Poon for reporting this
problem and submitting a fix.
* Fix lockup from having a double-mutex thread lock
when we can't load the user-specified font for the articlelist.
Thanks to Thomas K. Gamble for reporting this bug.
* Build fixes.
