JACC v.1.2
By CypherJF

=================
INTRODUCTION
=================
JACC ("Just Another ChatNet Client") is a program that enables you, the user, to connect to ASSS ("A Small Subspace Server") that are running the ChatNet module. It act's much like SubChat does for Subgame servers. It was written in Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0, you will need the MS VB6 Runtime files, which can be located at:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=bf9a24f9-b5c5-48f4-8edd-cdf2d29a79d5&displaylang=en

Other software dependencies:

Microsoft Winsock Control v6.0 -

http://cypherjf.sscentral.com/files/winsock.zip
* The source of this download was not verified before packaging, use at your own risk. See read me inside of zip.

Microsoft Rich Textbox Control v6.0
http://www.subspacedownloads.com/index.php?act=file&fid=1061

I designed JACC to read the Continuum Zone.dat file for the zone listing.

See:
http://forums.minegoboom.com/viewtopic.php?p=25041

for more information, updates, etc.

=================
UPGRADE 1.x
=================
I admit my versioning is horrible; but I will try my best to explain how to upgrade accordingly.

1.) Open Config.ini with a text editor such as Notepad, or Wordpad.
2.) Locate "Version=1.0", change to "Version=1.1"
3.) Locate "[User]", change to "[User0]".
^- was the beginning of profile implementation.
4.) Save & Close.
5.) Run JACC.exe


=================
WHATS NEW?
=================
01.15.2005
- * ADD: Menu option for log window. Just because Zach wanted it.
- * CHG: Began modifying the hiding of squad numbers, since it's broadcast in Subchat and TCP/IP easily.
Added one sad of a tooltip attempt; but what else can I say. it was a quick add.

12.30.2004 (NO NEW VER MARKER)
- * Fix: Removed double ;; for client identification.

11.22.2004 (VER MARKER:1.2.4)
- * FIX: Remote Private Message missing right paren.

11.12.2004 (VER MARKER:1.2.3)
- * ADD: Watch list beginnings ("watched.wav")
- * ADD: Mute, will make JACC not play the wave files.
- * REM: MsgBox Dialog notifying Public Macros introducted w/ version 1.3.0.
- * ADD: Anti-"Beep" on Up/Down key hit.
- * FIX: Chat Number issues.

11.09.2004
- * ADD: PM sound ("pm-received.wav")

11.07.2004 (VER MARKER:1.2.2)

11.05.2004
- * Macro implementation completed.
- * Macro tags are now implemented according to Continuum specification.
(Note: all %macro's need to be lower-case, sorry.)
- * Hopefully, fixed the :: rotation algorithm.

^-^ v.1.2 marker.

11.04.2004
- * Recoded borrowed source to stop doing redundant cycles on URL parsing.
- * Began Macro implementation.
- * JACC will create /logs/ sub-directory

10.26.2004

10.17.2004:
- * Fixed: arrow up/down for user list.
- * Fixed: userlist bounds.
- * began implementation of "profiles".
- * GUI changes (and fixes).
- * Fixed: URL switching everything to lcase().
-> NOTICE: URL detection was shifted off by 1 character.
-> NOTICE: URL detection/highlighting slows things down majorly.

10.16.2004:
- * Added: Font style changing capability.
- * Changed: Allowed Maximum Window
- * Added: URL parsing
- * Fixed: PM :: cycling issue.

10.15.2004:
- * Fixed: ChatNet Client ID per protocol 1.5
- * Fixed: ChatNet NOOP command per protocol 1.6
- * Fixed: Hidden password in log window.
- * Fixed: logging now adds the C2S :: responce.
- * Fixed: improper name switching with :: at the end of message.
- * Possible fix was introducted, for message in regards to invalid user?

=================
Profiles?
=================
Well, I am still having mixed feelings about making profiles in JACC; however, I have coded in the option to manually allow profiles. To modify (add/remove) a profile, the template of the user section is provided as the [user0] section, in config.ini. Do not modify the config.ini unless you know what you are doing. Remember to have JACC closed before modifying the Config.ini. To select a profile, you select it from the profile list; and hit {enter}, it will "load" the profile into memory. You will be able to save the password via clicking the 'save' button near the password field.


Known Issues:
* text to be sent needs to undo bolds, underlines, etc. and is known to have black text.

Resolved the Out of Memory issue:

Download a copy of mswinsck.ocx, you can either use the one from the link in the readme, or I have attached my copy onto the post above. Use it at your own risk.

Then follow steps mentioned on the last post of the Just Another ChatNet 1.0 topic.

I also want to post that I've begun working on a "bug tracker" for my app's. I just noticed tonite the one forwarding after submitting a bug report, is wrong, and sends you to a weird non-existant page... but if you'd like to check it out:
http://cypherjf.sscentral.com/bugger/ - I need to come up w/ a better name than bugger; but for right now.. it works...

I want to also note that it's still under development, and that database information may or may not be backed up.

broke my post: 1337, sorry peeps.
