CHANGES

Changes in version 0.9.1 -- 2005-12-04
------------------------
- tool m3u2link (create hard links from conent of .m3u file) added
  (located in directory tools)


Changes in version 0.9 -- 2005-12-03
----------------------
- after scanning the contents of jukeboxdir some data is stored in
  the file .moosicWebGUI-dump.dat (located in configdir). Upon startup the
  content of the dumped data is read. If the stored jukeboxdir and the
  current jukeboxdir match the initial scan of the jukeboxdir is omitted.
  This speeds up the program's start-up significantly when dealing with
  extraordinarily large jukeboxes.

- .moosicWebGUI-memo.m3u moved from jukebox dir to configdir
  (where it really belongs)

- online handbook started (roughly more than a skeleton currently):
  - .lyx source file added
  - links to online handbook and to manual page added to template

- man page improved

- link to wdg html validator (on local machine) added in debug mode,
  in order to use the validator the wdg-html-validator package
  (debian/ubuntu) needs to be installed

------------------------
- HTML improved:

- template reorganized, memo now has its own navigation box

- functions exit, clear, clearmemo and list no longer show their content

Changes in version 0.8.4 -- 2005-11-04

------------------------
- patch from Forest Bond implementing options -c, -n and -t included:
  -c: use alternate config file
  -n: add natwork spec to new ACL allowed_netorks

  parsing of moosic option file for valid filename extensions

- support for .m3u files (file format for playlists) added, extension
  .moo is deprecated (simply rename existing .moo files to .m3u)

Changes in version 0.8 -- 2005-06-03
----------------------

- dramatic speed-up escpecially when dealing with large Jukeboxes
  (instead of += all content new content is appended to a list;
  after completion the list is joined). On my slowest machine (700 MHz)
  the time for the generation of the tree view of my Jukebox decreased
  from 15 sec to approx 0.5 sec (!) as reported by /usr/sbin/ab.

- fixed error in do_HEAD (wrong status codes)

- added support for favicon.ico, icon added
