comparison README @ 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>.

48 Subscribing to groups in full mode should work with any news reader. Caching 48 See docs/NOTES for information about news client software.
49 of articles is unnecessary, since NOFFLE already caches them and should be
50 switched off.

52 Subscribing to groups in overview mode or thread mode requires the following
53 from the news reader program:
54
55 * It must not cache articles at all (or allow to switch the cache off),
56 because the article bodies change from the pseudo body "marked for download"
57 to the real body.
58
59 * The reader should rarely open article bodies automatically, because it will
60 mark them unwantedly for download.
