annotate NEWS @ 45:32ba1198c6fa noffle
[svn] * Makefile.in, configure, configure.in, docs/Makefile.in, src/Makefile.in:
Added checks for the mail and sort programs. ./configure will abort if
they're not found.
* README: Removed the paragraph about news client software, as it's the same
as the one in docs/NOTES.
* TODO: Removed 'expiring by groups' and
'move some text from noffle.1 to noffle.conf.5'.
* docs/NOTES: Changed the text about -DDEBUG to explain one should use
'./configure --enable-debug'.
* docs/noffle.1, docs/noffle.conf.5: Minor fixes. Added myself and Jim Hague
to the AUTHORS section :-)
* src/client.h, src/common.h, src/configfile.h, src/content.c, src/content.h,
src/control.c, src/control.h, src/database.h, src/dynamicstring.c,
src/dynamicstring.h, src/fetch.h, src/fetchlist.h, src/group.h,
src/itemlist.c, src/itemlist.h, src/lock.h, src/log.c, src/log.h,
src/noffle.c, src/online.h, src/outgoing.h, src/over.c, src/over.h,
src/post.h, src/protocol.h, src/pseudo.h, src/request.h, src/server.h,
src/util.c, src/util.h: Added the <config.h> include.
* src/content.c: Added missing include "content.h". Added a missing 'void'
in the declaration of clearCont().
* src/fetchlist.c: Casted fetchlist.size to (size_t) in a call to qsort(),
as qsort() expects a size_t. This removes a warning.
* src/noffle.c: Made doRequested() static. Added missing void to
enableCorefiles().
* src/log.c, src/protocol.c, src/online.c, src/pseudo.c: Added missing
includes.
* src/pseudo.c: Made genOv() and genPseudo() static.
* src/server.c: Added missing void to postArts(). Made touchArticle() static.
* src/util.c: Casted arguments of malloc() and memcpy() to size_t.
* src/dynamicstring.c, src/itemlist.c, src/over.c, src/request.c, src/util.c:
Removed casting of the result of malloc(). This is not necessary and
can hide a missing include of <stdlib.h>.
