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.
for installation. No more dependency checks built-in because
note runs out-of-the-box without additional modules, as a matter fact.
ADDED: if a search matches exactly on one note it will be displayed
directly, which avoids typing.
CHANGED: the main if-else contruct for calling the several subs has
been replaced by a simple closure call.
CHANGED: notes will now displayed in a slightly simpler fashion in interactive
mode, without the separator line between the title and the note.
ADDED: note can now determine automatically the width and height of
the terminal window it runs in (in interactive mode only) and
sets the width/height of what it prints accordingly. the config
variable "MaxLen" must be set to "auto" (which is the default
from now on) to get this to work.
ADDED: any interactive command will now clear the screen before it does
anything. this look much more uncluttered.
ADDED: if multiple notes are printed at once (i.e. note 1,2) then the
separator line between them will no more being printed because
every notes title is preceded by a line anyway.
CHANGED: by default the default operation mode is now interactive mode,
which is somewhat kindlier to new users.
CHANGED: changed to order which editor note tries to find. vi got now
higher precedence, because it is likely installed on almost
any unix system.
CHANGED: cosmetics.
NOTE: increased minor version number from 1 to 2 to indicate that
development begun after 2 1/2 years pause again :-)
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.
