proto2/INSTALL

-## QUICK INSTALLATION for those who demand results NOW! ##
-
-    1. modify src/inc/config.h to fit your preferences and your system.
-    2. modify src/inc/params.h also.
-    3. modify game/data/parmfile.cfg
-
-    When you're happy with the changes...
-
-	cd src            # Enter the src directory.
-	./configure       # This will call the configuration script
-	make              # Compiles the source code
-	make install      # This puts the binaries in ../game/
-	cd ../game/data   # This will put you into the games data directory
-(opt)	cp minimal.proto proto.db # Make the minimal dbase your dbase
-	cd ../..          # Directory should be $(HOME)/proto
-	./proto start     # This starts the server.
-	
-    And you're done!  ProtoMuck has it's own special minimal database.  To
-    connect to it, use:
-
-	telnet somehost someport
-	<Welcome screen scrolls by>
-	connect One potrzebie
-
-    You should then be connected to da Man.
-
-	QUIT
-	./proto stop   # This shuts the server down.
-
-
-## HISTORY ##
-
-      ProtoMUCK is derived from NeonMUCK with man extentions and
-      modifications, which is derived from TinyMUCK, PuebloMUCK, RattyMUCK,
-      and TinyMUCKfb.  All of these share common derivation form TinyMUD 1.5.2,
-      which also has many extensive changes.
-
-## COMPATABILITY ##
-
-	ProtoMuck will read, without modification, any TinyMUD, TinyMUCK,
-	PuebloMUCK, TinyMUCK FB, NeonMUCK, and RattyMUCK databases.   ProtoMuck
-	databases however cannot be loaded back into these other variants,
-      except for NeonMUCK (though it is untested and only in theory).
-
-	NeonMuck added space for 32 additional flags on all objects, along
-	with a new programming language called MCP, extensive new MUF
-	primitives, increased support for Pueblo and other web based logins,
-	and a host of other changes.  And, in turn, ProtoMUCK expanded upon
-      that and started on the long road of bringing the FB code base in
-      line with the later versions.
-
-	To convert an existing FB database over, rename it to proto.db
-	in the game/data directory.  Log in as the God character, and
-	type '@fixwizbits Convert DB to new level system.'  Then shut
-	down the game and restart it; the database is now a clean
-	Neon-format database.
-
-## COPYRIGHT ##
-
-	Please see the file COPYRIGHT for the full version of the copyright
-	applying to this code.  It is unlawful to use this code without
-	complying with the copyright.
-
-## COMPILING PROTOMUCK ##
-
-	ProtoMuck uses the GNU autoconf system to try and compile without
-	errors on any platform which supports the required tools.  ProtoMuck
-	does want GCC, Flex, and Bison to compile each and every source file
-	into object code.  If Flex and Bison aren't available, pre-compiled
-	versions of the mcpparse.y and mcplex.fl files are available in
-	the 'backup' directory under the source tree.
-
-	This code is known to compile without errors or warnings under
-	Linux, Solaris, and SunOS.  It can be ported cleanly to Windows
-	under Cygnus's gnu-win32 development kit. with a custom Makefile
-	and using the backup parser files.
-
-	It should compile cleanly, or with very few modification under most
-	systems.   If you need to make modifications, or find a system which
-	it doesn't compile under, or which it compiles but doesn't run under,
-	please contact the authors, and they will do their best to provide you	
-	with some help, and to incorporate fixes into later releases (if any).
-	The authors are however under no obligation to provide support, but
-	will likely do so anyway.
-
-  # SLACKWARE LINUX #
-
-	ProtoMuck has an internal fix to the Makefile so the fix below should
-	not be necessary, but the fix is provided for reference purposes.
-
-	If you are running slackware 2.2.x or later, you might need to first
-	make sure your system has a soft link from /usr/lib/libg.sa to
-	/usr/lib/libc.sa.  Do this with the command:
-
-		cd /usr/lib; ln -s libc.sa libg.sa
-
-	This isn't a complete fix, but it at least lets Proto compile.  Make
-	sure the Makefile generated has LIBR=-lm
-
-	This fix is not required under RedHat Linux.
-
-  # SUN #
-
-	Sun realloc() is braindead.  On every Sun system I have seen,
-	all TinyMUD/TinyMUCK derived code runs about 6 megs in memory with
-	a very small database if the option DB_DOUBLING is not defined.  If
-	you are running on a Sun3 or Sun4, you should definitely compile with
-	this option turned on. 
-
-	Let the authors know if there are other systems that need this.  This
-	may not be as much of a problem with current versions of the server,
-	as databases now store a count of their objects, and the entire
-	database generally gets allocated in one chunk.
-
-  # OTHER OS'S #
-
-	As far as other platforms, you're on your own.  In almost all cases,
-	just running 'make' will set up the makefile and configuration
-	for your system, then typing 'make' again will compile the server.
-

-## DIRECTORY STRUCTURE ##
-
-    bin  -- Contains the unix restart script and other support scripts
-
-    docs -- Contains important information about administering the muck
-
-    game -- Holds all run-time game data files and online information
-
-    src  -- Contains all source code to build the server executable
-		and related utility programs
-
-
-## PROGRAM ##
-
-    # protomuck #
-
-	Usage: protomuck [options] starting-dbfile dump-dbfile [portnumber]
-
-	Where the [options] can be:
-
-            -convert       load db, save in current format, and quit.
-            -decompress    when saving db, save in uncompressed format.
-            -nosanity      don't do db sanity checks at startup time.
-            -insanity      load db, then enter interactive sanity editor.
-            -sanfix	   load db, then fix any sanity problems in the DB.
-            -wizonly       only allow wizards to login.
-            -help          display usage message.
-
-	If port is not specified it defaults to 10002.  The initial database
-	will be read in from starting-dbfile, which must contain at least
-	the two objects in minimal.db to work well.
-
-	The -decompress option will cause the dump-file to be saved in an
-	uncompressed format.  The protomuck process will write a checkpoint
-	out to dump-dbfile every few hours, depending on the @tuned interval
-	parameter.
-
-	The -convert option will cause the server to load an old style
-	database, save it back out immediately in the most current database
-	format, and then shutdown, instead of allowing connections.
-
-
-    # proto #
-
-	Usage: proto start -- Starts the muck
-	Usage: proto stop   -- Shuts the muck down
-
-	This is just a simple script to turn ProtoMuck on or off from the
-	shell account.  ProtoMuck accepts a SIGKILL to force an immediate
-	but clean and safe shutdown of the muck.  (Don't try this on a
-	normal Fuzzball server, it will crash and could hose your database.)
-
-
-    # olddecompress #
-
-	Usage: olddecompress < compressed-db-file > uncompressed-db-file
-	or: olddecompress compressed-db-file > uncompressed-db-file
-
-	Removes old style bigraph compression from a database file that has
-	been generated by an older version of netmuck using the -DCOMPRESS
-	compile-time option.
-
-
-    # topwords #
-
-	Usage: topwords < db-file | sort > wordlist.txt
-
-	This program will find the 4096 words who will give you the best
-	compression with the new style dictionary based compression.  This
-	is used by the optimdb script to re-optimize the compression of a
-	database.
-
-    # optimdb #
-
-	Usage: optimdb infile outfile
-
-	This script reads a database, and saves it out to the outfile with
-	the compression optimized.  For databases under a half meg, this db
-	will likely be a few K larger than the same database compressed with
-	the old bigraph method.  For half a meg and over, though, it's a win.

proto2/docs/OldChanges/1.README

-NeonMUCK Changes Files
-----------------------
-The work on NeonMUCK was not highly documented. These files are the only
-indications of any record keeping on the changes that went into NeonMUCK.
-They have been included here as a reference as to what ProtoMUCK evolved 
-from. Nothing contained in them is implied to be correct, or to even be 
-supported in ProtoMUCK anymore. 

proto2/docs/OldChanges/CHANGES.NEON1.5

-NeonMuck source code is (C)1996 Andrew Nelson and Jeremy Blackman, all 
-rights reserved.  All pertinant TinyMUCK and TinyMUCKfb copyrights also 
-still apply.  Database compression code (C) Dragon's Eye Productions and 
-used with the kind permission of Dr. Cat.
----- Changes from normal TinyMUCKfb as of Neon 1.5, first release ----
-
-REALLY MAJOR:
-* Pueblo multimedia protocol support added.
-  - 'PUEBLO' ($) flag added.
-  - notify_html, notify_html_exclude, html_nocr, html_exclude_nocr
-    MUF primitives added.
-  - {html:} and {ohtml:} MPI added
-* ANSI color support added.
-  - 'COLOR' flag added to players.
-  - ansi_notify MUF primitive added
-  - {ansi:} MPI added.
-* New MUCKER / WIZARD level system added.
-  - see 'help newlevels'
-* WWW server support added.
-  - notify_descriptor (MAGE (M4) only) MUF primitive added.
-  - Users can create homepages on themselves.
-  - MUF programs can work as webpages as well.
-* Combat/RPG support planned
-  - MOBILE and ETHEREAL flags (currently unused by server) added for
-    MUD-program use.
-
-OF OTHER INTEREST:
-* Program logs show user's mucker level.
-* @/lockout-msg can be set on a player to prevent them from logging in...
-  contents of this prop will be displayed and login rejected.
-* Lots of new @tune parameters
-* Online registration request hopper added.
-* wizchat/wc added internally.
-* Wizards can choose to not see wall_wizards messages
-* Added setting to curtail building if DB hits a certain size
-* Wizards can @name non-wizards without needing to @newpassword the user
-* Dark rooms do not display contents even to owner.  Examine will still
-  show all contents
-* Fixed simple_look in look.c to not use (@desc) for the 'command @'
-* _sys/lastcleantime added for cleanup intervals
-* Added support for mortal use of !@ps
-* Wizards cannot @force other wizards.  Period.
-* MPI security holes patched.
-* @/mage feeps added to allow select mortals higher-level use of certain
-  commands.
-* Wizards can teleport into player's inventories.  No, you can't ask why.
-  Boredom, ok? :)
-* MUF 'parseprop' now parses MPI _correctly_ to remove all non-printing 
-  characters from result string.
-* MUF 'moveto' prim now allows entry of vehicles without a wizbit.
-* Wizard WHO list modified so there's more room for sitenames.
-* 'Doing...' in normal WHO list is replaced by #0=_poll, if set.
-* Fixed @tune to allow un-setting of dbref tune params.
-* Added GUEST flag, restricted use of certain commands so characters set
-  GUEST cannot use them.  Set this flag on twinks, too!  Note that MUF
-  programs not locked against GUEST characters could potentially give them
-  these powers back.
-* Added a 'help' command to the login screen to spit back 'connect.txt'
-  as opposed to welcome.txt.
-* 'viewable' flag added.
-* DARK flag on a player will send them ALL debug info for a MUF program
-  they run.  HACK FOR DEBUGGING PURPOSES...(?)TEMPORARY(?)
-* Andy made a truly garish default color scheme.  Watch out! :)
-* Program changes by wizards are NOT logged to logs/programs.
-  This saves an unbelievable amount of disk space.
-* Nicer @stats and @proginfo
-* Automatic character generation / e-mail based registration added.  Cool!
-* Some sites, for real losers, can be COMPLETELY blocked.  Neon won't
-  even output the login screen before dropping connection.
-* {showlist} MPI primitive will print a list without running against the
-  {list} length limit.
-* A set of randomly cycled login screens!  Again, no, you can't ask why! ;)
-
-INTERNAL:
-* Fixed some logging issues.
-* Hostname resolution in registration connection should work better now.
-* Violated some C programming rules, but fixed dump_users() to not crash
-  on long usernames.
-* format_time() fixed.
-

proto2/docs/OldChanges/CHANGES.NEON2.0

-NeonMuck source code is (C)1996 Jeremy Blackman, Andrew Nelson, and Joe
-Traub.
-All rights reserved.  All pertinant TinyMUCK and TinyMUCKfb copyrights
-also still apply.  Database compression code (C) Dragon's Eye Productions
-and used with the kind permission of Dr. Cat.
----- Changes from pre-2.x Neon as of Neon 2.0 ----
-
-* First prototype of NWI (Neon Web Interface) is in place.
-    - this allows a user without Pueblo to log in and still get
-      multimedia.
-
-* More MUF primitives cleaned up.
-
-* Some 'ease of use' MPI and MUF for multimedia added...
-    - commandtext
-    - playmidi
-
-* KEEPDUMPS cleaned up.
-
-* First hooks for a potential Windows port added in place.
-
----- Changes from Neon 2.0 as of Neon 2.10 ----
-
-* NWI cleaned up slightly.
-
-* This version is mostly internal changes to allow easier compiling
-  across different platforms.
-    - SunOS/Solaris now compiles without too much trouble, although a
-      slight manual change to autoconf.h is still needed after running
-      the configure script.
-    - WinNT/95 port works now!
-
-* Some (undocumented, and possibly temporary) new MUF primitives added,
-  to support arrays and socket controls.
-
----- Planned changes ---
-
-Loki is talking to Foxen, the author of TinyMUCKfb, about establishing
-some standards between the two MUCKs so that TinyMUCKfb, which will support
-multimedia as well eventually, will be able to exchange code with NeonMuck.
-
-This may necessitate a large revision, to 3.x, but will allow the standards
-for arrays, sockets, etc to be fixed and then documented, since it will
-then be a reasonable safe assumption they won't be changing.

proto2/docs/OldChanges/CHANGES.PROTO.1.75

-Changes from 1.70 to 1.71
-**Foxsteve**
-- Added the RESTART, SHUTDOWN, DELTA, DUMP, and ARMAGEDDON prims to MUF. 
-- Fixed various overflow crashes caused by checks not being implemented
-    where they should be.
-- Submitted MUF editing prims for review. Note that the MUF editng prims
-    were not included in Proto1.75, but will show up in 1.80. The reason
-    for this is that they will be redesigned to work with arrays instead
-    of stack ranges. 
-- Fixed }array, }list, and }dict to actually work. Those had gotten lost
-    from compile.c at some point along the line.
-
-**Alynna**
-* Added the define CYGWIN for defining a compile under CYGWIN.  Off by default.
-  If you are compiling for Win32 under Cygwin, and define this, all will go off
-  without so much as a warning.  :)  Assuming your Cygwin is configed right.
-
-* Added the define CYGWIN_TZ and CYGWIN_TZX which defines the
-   offset in hours and the label of the timezone for strftime.
-
-* Added my comments in config.h, documenting these, and added a note to
-   the USE_STRFTIME define, saying not to define it, as CYGWIN define fixes
-   the protomuck strftime.
-
-* strftime.c/format_time: For %Z: When determining the timezone, use
-   whats in the define, dont try to figure it out under CYGWIN, it breaks.
-   Takes the label from CYGWIN_TZX
-
-* strftime.c/get_tz_offset: Return whats defined under CYGWIN_TZ, dont
-   try to figure it out.
-
-* interface.c/main: DETACH define fix, CYGWIN is POSIX, but doesnt
-   explicitly say so.  CYGWIN define activates this fix when DETACH is defined.
-   CYGWIN define tells proto to use 'setsid()' for CYGWIN.
-
-* version.h: Update version number and specifically detect CYGWIN and display
-   apporpriate version info.
-
-* game.c: Modified @version for new version info, and to display whether it is
-  compiled for Cygwin.
-
-* Added define STAFF_POWER, by default defined, that adds a power called STAFF
-   to the powers list.  It does nothing codewise, but it can be detected by
-    <obj> "STAFF" power?
-   This is so that you can give special priveledges in MUF to someone with that
-   power set without giving them a full W.
-
-* STAFF_POWER define activates edits in the following files to support the new
-  @power: inc/db.h look.c p_db.c unparse.c wiz.c
-
-* Fixed a crasher in fltostr() that would choke on some instances of float
-  props
-
-* Fixed a segfault crasher in CYGWIN having to do with arbitrary declarations
-  of BUFFER_LEN in some buffers.
-
-* Added two new propqueues, @dumpwarn and @dump, both called just before a dump
-  warning or a dump.  They're only valid on #0, and return #-1 as the trigger,
-  #1 as the player triggering, and #0 as the location, at all times.   This is
-  so you can execute programs or customize messages just before a dump warning
-  or a dbsave.   Considering saves are near instant due to forking, it may be
-  found useful just to tune dumps up to one every 5 minutes or so, turn off
-  messages, and use the dump propqueues to do any pre-dump work needed.  Both
-  queues run before the message, so that you can use the queue to change the
-  message.
-
-* The new propqueues can be turned off by undefining DUMP propqueues in
-  inc/config.h
-
-* Added 'staff? ( d -- i )' primitive, inserver define for:
-   dup "W" flag? "STAFF" power? or
-
-**Akari**
-INTERNAL:
-December 10, 2001
-- Fixed it so that DARK characters don't show up on the login
-    WHO anymore. [Proto only bug]
-- Fixed a crasher with the in-server look crashing when internal
-    descs were used on things.
-
-December 15, 2001:
-- Made it so that _disconnect propqueues are called whenever a
-    character is dropped, not just when it is the last connection.
-    This is in line with how FB has always handled it.
-
-Feburary 23, 2002:
-- Fixed it so that failed help attempts don't show up to LOGWALL
-    admin when log_failedhelp is turned off.
-
-Feburary 24, 2002:
-- Made it so that array_tree_free_node() asserts that any subnodes
-    are NULL. This is to help catch any memory leaks. [FB6-change]
-
-March 6, 2002:
-- Fixed a typo in the @idesc code.
-
-SERVER-SIDE:
-December 10, 2001
-- Removed the FLUSHCHANGED #ifdef from the code, since it should
-    never be turned off. [FB6 change]
-- Made it so that the MUCK will fork off a child process to do
-    data base dumps, thus making it so that the MUCK won't have 
-    to pause for dumps. [FB6 change]
-- Fixed resolver to properly shutdown() indentd sockets. [FB6 fix]
-
-December 15, 2001:
-- Fixed a compiletime warning in the SMATCH prim.
-
-Feburary 23, 2002:
-- Incorporated a ton of changes made by Moose to make compiling
-    WinProto a much easier process.
-
-March 9, 2002:
-- Fixed a crash related to loading floating point props.
-
-April 18, 2002:
-- Fixed it so that the webserver port will not be opened if HTTPD is
-    undefined in config.h.
-
-May 18, 2002:
-- Removed the coremail call from the restart script for now. Will have
-    to rethink the design on that.
-
-MPI:
-December 10, 2001:
-- Fixed MPI variables. Under certain condition garbage would be
-    put in them because they were not initialzed properly.
-
-MUF:
-December 10, 2001:
-- Fixed ARRAY_GET_PROPLIST to not get confused by null value entries
-    in the list. It will create valid entries for them in the array with
-    the content of '0'. [FB6 fix]
-- Made it so that ARRAY_FILTER_PROP follows the same behavior as the
-    SMATCH prim. [FB6 fix]
-
-Feburary 23, 2002:
-- Made it so that LOGSTATUS was understood by the interpretor.
-- Made it so that flag? does not abort out on unknown flags, but
-    instead returns 0.
-- Fixed NEWOBJECT to allow the appropriate destinations for the new
-    object to be located. 
-- Fixed PNAME-OK? and NAME-OK?.
-
-Feburary 24, 2002:
-- Made array sorting use FLT_EPSILON for more accurate number 
-    comparison. [FB6-change]
-- Added a }join inserver define that expands to:
-    } array_make \"\" array_join
-- Added ARRAY_SORT_INDEXED. [FB6-addition]
-- Blocked a security hole in moveto that allowed anyone to move to #0
-    by trying to send something to an invalid location. [FB6-fix]
-- Added ARRAY_FMTSTRING. [FB6-addition]. The code on this was formatted 
-    horribly, but it's 400+ lines long, so I kinda left it as-is for 
-    now. Would be nice to format it correctly sometime...
-
-March 25, 2002:
-- Fixed a crasher with NBSOCKRECV handling Invalid Host returns wrong.
-
-March 28, 2002:
-- Fixed TREAD to work correctly.
-- Fixed it so that NBSOCKRECV won't infinite loop if the input has no
-     end of line or character ASCII in it.
-- Fixed NBSOCKRECV to ignore non-printable ASCII.
-- Added NBSOCKRECV_CHAR. Only takes in 1 character at a time from the 
-    input stream and pushes it onto the stack as an integer.
-- Moved socket prims header stuff to p_socket.h instead of p_misc.h.
-
-April 22, 2002:
-- Fixed NBSOCKRECV to accept control characters again, and resolved
-    a number of socket prim related bugs.
-- Changed FINDNEXT to not abort on garbage objects. It will return 
-    garbage objects if the object 
-- Changed staff? to return false on players.
-
-May 18, 2002:
-- Fixed a hanging problem with nbsockrecv working with raw MS telnet.
-- Tried to fix the NBSOCKRECV to accept control characters again, without
-    allowing Extended ASCII to get through.

proto2/docs/OldChanges/HOPPER

-The Quick Guide On Setting Up The Hopper
-----
-The @hopper is fully functional, now.  To use the automated e-mail,
-do the following:
-
-@tune mailserver=<name or IP of an SMTP server you can use>
-@tune servername=<name of the host your MUCK runs on>
-@tune reg_email=<email address of char wizard>
-
-@tuneing servername is recommended anyway, since HTMuf programs
-for the webserver will probably begin to use this instead.
-
-You must then create an lsedit list on #0, called @new-user-mail, e.g.:
-
-lsedit #0=@new-user-mail
-
-This is the body of the message that will be sent to a new user.
-You can use %user% for the username, and %pass% for the password.
-
-For example:
-
-lsedit #0=@new-user-mail
-Welcome to MyHappyMuck!
- 
-Your user, %user%, has been created with password %pass%.
-
-We hope to see you aboard soon!
-.end
-
-
-Then, you have to @tune online_registration=yes
-
-Now users can 'request <charname> <email> <real name>' and be put in a
-'hopper'.  When you use the @hopper command to verify and create users,
-they will be pcreated with a randomly generated password and sent a copy
-of that mail (with %user% and %pass% replaced with their user and
-password).
-
-If you're a really open MUCK, you can @tune fast_registration=yes
-
-Then the @hopper only records who has used request, because the users
-will be created immediately upon request of a char (and mailed that
-letter).
-
-Enjoy!

proto2/docs/OldChanges/PreNeon/1.README

-This directory contains the change logs from the various versions of MUCK
-prior to NeonMuck that went into the composition of Neon.  None of the
-information in them is gaurenteed to be correct, or even close.  These are
-included merely so that people can see from what NeonMuck was derived.

proto2/docs/OldChanges/PreNeon/CHANGES.CRT

-We don't use builder bits; just #define Builder() as (1).
-
-Our player birthroom is #2, not #0.
-
-We allow '==" and ;==:
-
-I make prim_online mucker level 1.
-Also conddbref, conidle, contime
-
-We use -lmalloc
-
-I allow @pcreate even with REGISTRATION off.
-
-We've dropped NEXTPROP and PROPDIR? to M2.
-
-I don't normally log wiz commands.  CODEWIZARD now excepted.
-
-I comment out the game.c and interface.c default 'log_command()' logging.
-
-We add some stuff to wiz.c:do_usage().
-
-My interface.c check_connect(), aside from having
-the reg_* hacks, logs d->hostname, not just d->descriptor.
-
-I leave DOUBLING on but change it to actually grow by 10%
-increments rather than 100% increments.
-
-Added a "db_clear_object(newobj); /* CrT */" to db.c:new_object()
-'else' clause, it seemed to be crashing on
-do_dig -> new_object -> db_free_object -> free()
-
-I add a
-    OWNER(thing) = GOD;  /* CrT */
-at end of move.c:recycle(), so people don't own their garbage.
-
-We changed game.c:process_command() to allow mortals to use !@edi
-!@lis and !l overrides to get native server code.
-
-Changed interface.c:check_connect to log pw on failed tries, mostly
-so I can diagnose people who fail to connect.
-
-I fix timequeue.c next_timequeue_event() main loop to not crash
-on null tqhead.
-
-We fix timestamps(?) prim to be M3.
-
-We change 'gripe' command to require three letter prefix.
-
-We change @toad to not do it if *name/@/precious:{any}
-
-Fb5.24 cores if we sweep someone who is INTERACTIVE.  We add a
-check to p_misc.c:prim_force() to prevent this.
-
-On Mumford's request, p_db.c:prim_moveto has one check commented out.
-
-On Kurane's request, db.c:log_program_text uses folding-mode format.
-
-We turn off all the Builder() restrictions in create.c

proto2/docs/OldChanges/PreNeon/CHANGES.PUEBLO

-PuebloMUCK changes merged into TinyMUCKfb5.xpk to form Neon.
----
-Support for the Pueblo multimedia protocol.
-
-* notify_html, notify_html_exclude, html_nocr, html_exclude_nocr
-* {html} and {ohtml}
-* PUEBLO ('$') flag.
----
-Changes made to TinyMUCKfb5.xpk before merge.
-
-Added the ability to use MUF files as 'cgi' scripts on web server.
-* notify_descriptor (Mage-only primitive)
-
-Added the ability to use lsedit lists / propdirs to set up a homepage
-tree for each user.
-

proto2/docs/OldChanges/PreNeon/CHANGES.PUEBLO1

-TinyMUCKfb5.47 Pueblo1.0.0 Pending Document Changes
----
-These changes will go into the main documentation as appropriate around 
-the time that the server gets it's own, more sane, version name/number, 
-and when the database modifications and the changes to MUF and MPI are 
-done.  In the meantime, this will be the repository of info on changes.
-
-New commands:
-@htmldesc <object>=<htmldescription>
-   This is shown to Pueblo users instead of the normal desc, if present.
-
-New MUF commands:
-notify_html (d s -- )
-   Only shown to Pueblo users...HTML codes are NOT escapes.  TO have an HTML
-   code be effective, it must be sent with this.
-
-notify_html_exclude (d s -- )
-   The html version of notify_exclude
-
-parsecgi (s -- s1 s2 .. sn n)
-   Takes a string that would normally be passed from a form to a cgi-bin
-   script (e.g. ?parameter=value&parameter=value... ) and splits it
-   up into it's component parameter=value strings, performing the
-   extended character (%xx) hex-to-character conversion while doing so.
-
-grabcgi (s s -- s)
-   Given first a full cgi string, and then the 'parameter' to get the 
-   value of, returns either the 'value' for that parameter, or a null
-   string if there was no matching parameter.
-
-++ (v --)
-   Takes a variable (the type you normally access with @ and !) and
-   increments it by one.  Basically, a short method of doing
-   variable @ 1 + variable !
-
--- (v --)
-   Same thing as ++, but subtracts one.
-
-mark ( -- s)
-   Places a stack marker (a unique string).  This does nothing on it's
-   own, but is intended to pair with release.
-
-release ( -- <lots of stack removed>)
-   This wipes the stack back to, and including, the last marker left by
-   mark.  This is very useful for subroutines which should clean off the 
-   stack when they're done.
-
-MPI additions:
-{html:<text>,<dbref>}
-   Only shown to Pueblo users, and the HTML codes are not escaped.
-   This is to {tell:} as notify_html is to notify
-
-{ohtml:<text>,<dbref>}
-   As {otell:} is to {tell:}, so is {ohtml:} to {html:}
-
-
-More additions coming!

-PuebloMUCK 1.1.0 Changes
-------------------------
-
-Note that not all of these changes are in effect as of 1.0.9, some are in 
-remark blocks to prevent them from crashing due to bugs in Pueblo 1.07 
-which will be resolved by 1.10
-
-Note that the MUCK name has changed.  I'm doing so much modification that 
-calling this TinyMUCK 2.2fb5.47 Pueblo x.y.z seemed a bit clunky.  So now 
-we're just PuebloMUCK x.y.z, where x.y is the Pueblo protocol we're 
-designed around, and z is the revision within that.
-
-Unless specifically stated otherwise, the data in 'info pueblo' is still 
-valid.
-
---- MUF Changes ---
-
-Two new commands:
-
-html_nocr (d s -- )
-html_exclude_nocr (d s -- )
-
-These work like notify_html and notify_html_exclude except that they 
-don't have a carriage return on the end of the line.
-
---- MPI Changes ---
-
-None as yet.  Got suggestions?  Tell me.
-
---- Server changes ---
-*** THESE ARE BOTH DISABLED IN 1.0.9!! ***
-
-@pedit <program>
-
-A new version of @edit which uses Pueblo to create a GUI interface.  This 
-interface can be left up to edit a program, and allows a debug window and 
-some other nice features.  Note that this mode is highly experimental and 
-has NOT been tested at ALL because Pueblo does not support the features 
-needed to run it yet.
-
-@led <object>=<listname>
-
-A new lsedit replacement, built into the server.  led creates a Pueblo 
-pane that allows you to easily edit existing lists, simply scroll through 
-the list and edit as needed, a'la Notepad or a similar basic text 
-editor.  Again, the features needed to use this are not in place yet so 
-this has not been tested and is currently disabled.
