mode.
FIXED: list displaying in interactiv mode corrected. the width of the
note number will now correctly used.
CHANGED: the default setting of note will now be to use an external
editor instead of stdin.
CHANGED: the unneccessary apostrophes in listings has been removed.
ADDED: the note version will be displayed in the titlebar of interactive
mode.
ADDED: new config variable AutoClear, which is turned on by default,
which controls wether the screen shall be cleared after each
item (display, list and so on).
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been replaced by a simple closure call.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 :-)
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.
FIXED: Forgot "PreferredEditor" config-option in the new config format.
FIXED: the interactive "cd .." command has ignored the presence of a
"DefaultLong" setting(and search too)... thx to Peter.
CHANGED: Optimized a little bit the output routine, now it is better to read.
ADDED: sub format and appropriate config-option for text formatting capabilities.
CHANGED: changed getconfig regexp, which allows now also to use Option = Param.
FIXED: was not possible to override config-options, which are set by default to
something.
ADDED: note chacks now, if a database os actually really encrypted and exits with
an error if it s and the user turned off encryption. This protects her from
destroying it's own database ..
it now again...
ADDED: a new database backend added, NOTEDB::dbm, which uses DBM files for
storage.
FIXED: &display-tree returns now, if there is no note, otherwise it
would die because of an undefined refernce.
CHANGED: Changed the config file format completely. It is now no more a perl
file, instead it is a simple plain text file which note parses.
CHANGED: Changed the way, note loads it database backend. It uses now the
$dbdriver variable as module-name, which makes it possible easily
to write your own backend without the need to change note itself.
FIXED: Removed Getopt::Long option "bundling", causes errors with perl
5.6.0 and is not senceful.
FIXED: Added the Getopt::Long option "no_ignore_case". In 1.0.4 options
were case insensitive causing -i to be interpreted as --import
instead of --interactive ;-(((
ADDED: a new config option $DEFAULT_LIST, which causes note, \
if turned to "LONG", to use long-listing as default. |
But it will still be able to use short-listing if you |
explicit specify that. | submitted by
FIXED: sub search prints now an appropriate error-message in |==> Peter Palmreuther

usage. |
CHANGED: Changed the text in the interactive help to reflect |
changes of verion 1.0.3 (t and T). /
ADDED: Enhanced list command in interactive mode, you can now specify
a topic which notes you want to see.
CHANGED: updated the help and usage sections to reflect the additions above.
Works now properly, with both backends!
FIXED: and another bug: recounting of numbers did not take care about
the existing order! If you deleted note #12, then note #13 became
not neccessarily #12! Instead it becames any other number (kind of
randomly...).
CHANGED: NOTEDB::binary set_del function changed, it does no more require
a temporary file for number recount. Instead it uses get_all and
stores all notes in RAM and then rewrites the database.
FIXED: fixed the set_new call within note. It used 0 as the first param
(number) which is not useful since we dont have support for auto-
increment from all database backends.
FIXED: fixed the function set_recountnum in NITEDB::mysql, it was also
incorrect :-((( 0.8 seemed to be a very bad early alpha...........
FIXED: there was a bug in NOTEDB::binary which caused not to recount note
numbers after deleting one :-(
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.
topic, thus use "cd topicname" instead just typing "topicname"!
FIXED: there was a smal regex bug which maked it impossible to use such
topics: "4 test", in such a case note just displayed note number 4
instead of cd'ing to topic "4 test".
ADDED: a new config option "$KEEP_TIMESTAMP" allows a user to disable
note's default behavior of updating the timestamp of a note after
editing it.
note! quickly corrected! so subtopics also available from command-
line.
FIXED: a small bug fiyed, it was impossible to use -D or -I from command-
line, if $ALWAYS_INT was turned on, now it is.
FIXED: fixed problem with local/global variable $time, which confused
the script under certain circumstances, now $time is no more global,
it will be read in (using &getdate) locally by &new and &edit.
CHANGED: The Topic separator is no longer hardcoded, one can customize
it using the $TopicSep variable, the default is now /, the backslash
will no mor work!
CHANGED: use perl buildin localtime() function instead of
GNU date, which is possibly not installed on every target
system (i.e. win32), therefore better portability!
CHANGED: use now the strict module
ADDED: Support for subtopics added (and sub-sub-..-topics).
CHANGED: Removed the "T" command, it is now obsolete.
CHANGED: behavior of list command changed, now shows topics as well as
notes under the current topic(if there are some).
CHANGED: The ".." command takes you now one level higher in your topic-
structure.
ADDED: A new config option $PreferredEditor, which you can use to
specify your own choice of editor.
FIXED: A bug at line 769 causing single note where smaller than note-
listings
FIXED: A bug caused note to save bogus timestamps after editing a note.
CHANGED: It does no more print 3 newlines before the menu in interactive mode.
FIXED: Some more vars will be resetted during each loop in interactive mode.
$ListType.
required Mysql module directly from CPAN, thanks to David A. Bandel!
FIXED: The mysql version did not display notes (i.e.: "note 3" did nothing)
CHANGED: Again, the sql-format of the mysql database has been changed. Now
there are only 3 fields, the number filed is the primary key, the id
field in previous versions was a waste of diskspace...
CHANGED: The format of the dump-output has been changed.
ADDED: It is now possible to import previously dumped notes into the notedb
(dumps from both versions are compatible with each other)
FIXED: the function num_bereich() had a bug, which caused ot to ignore under
some circumstances one number (i.e. "note -d 4-13" did nothing).
