REMOVED: removed the usage guidelines from te README file. This information
were redundant because its also contained in the manpage.
FIXED: on FreeBSD the setting of MaxLen to 'auto' had no effect because the
output of 'stty -a' which I use in note to determine the actual
size of the terminal, is different from that on linux.
ADDED: topics can now be abbreviated in interactive mode, which
avoids typing. abbreviation works only if an explicit
match could be found, otherwise the available topics that
matches will be suggested.
FIXED: if ShortCd was on and one used "cd 3" and after that "cd .."
then the current topic was wrong (empty $PATH).
FIXED: if the current topic contained no notes and one created a new
note without specifying a topic, then note did not add a
proper topic (also because of empty $PATH).
CHANGED: the default colors are now visible both on black and white
backgrounds, see next entry.
ADDED: two more color values: <white_black> and <bold>.
CHANGED: the color hash is now in ::main instead of ::C.
file, use perls open() instead.
CHANGED: excluded some of the help texts from the usage message and the
interactive help command to a manpage.
ADDED: new commandline flag "--encrypt" which one can use to encrypt
the mysql database password. This will be decrypted before
connecting to the db. There is also a new config file option
"encrypt_passwd" which indicates an encrypted db-password.
ADDED: another new config option "ShortCd", which can be set to "yes"
or 1 and if set, then a command like "cd 13" would jump
directly to the topic of the note with the number 13.
ADDED: now you can at any time cd back to the "root" of the
topic-structure using the command "cd /".
CHANGED: mysql.pm does now only do a table-lock on single write
accesses, no more on the whole session. This allows one to
access the same db twice or more.
FIXED: Changed README and Changelog for readability on 80 by 25
displays. And changed indentation of the note script itself.
ADDED: NOTEDB.pm - a generic module, which holds some methods, which
are used by binary.pm, mysql.pm and dbm.pm.
ADDED: NOTEDB.pm generate_search(), which allows one to
use AND, OR and various combinations of them using ( and ).
ADDED: a search does now return the 2nd line of a note if a matching
note's first line is a topic.
CHANGED: use "unshift" instead of push to add $libpath to @INC.
ADDED: a new feature, Caching of notes. supported by binary.pm and
mysql.pm. To turn it on, one need to set "Cache" in the config
to a true value.
FIXED: regexp bug fixed. It was only possible to delete 2 items together
separated by comma ("d 1,2,3,4" deleted only 1,2!).
ADDED: Some new config options which reflects the new module structure.
So you can change your database backend without the need to
replace the note script itself.
FIXED: the previously added feature "cd <topic>" didn't really work :-(
ADDED: NOTEDB::mysql added. Perlmodule, which I will use within
note from now on instead of buildin functions for accessing the
database. From now on I only need to maintain one version of
note, since the module interface will be identical between the
bin and sql version.
CHANGED: The SQL code does not use Mysql.pm anymore. Instead it is coded
using the more portable DBI module. This allows one easily to
switch to anther database, which is supported by DBI.
CHANGED: Locking. The db-table will now be locked before note accesses it.
FIXED: width of listings is now always the same independent of the string-
length of a certain note.
