• Busy with MagiTerm

    Hey,

    been busy the last couple of days with magiterm.

    added the ability to import syncterm.lst files (the idea being you can import the telnet bbs guide into your dialing directory)

    added a confirmation dialog to deleting entries.

    added the ability to pin entries to the top, so you can find your favourite bbses quickly incase you import a massive list. (ALT-P on the dialing directory)

    Changed the help menu shortcut to ALT-Z from ALT-F1

    did a whole lot under the hood with the dialing directory, but there's still more to do. I started magiterm when I wasn't very good with C++, so it's quiet a bit of a mess.

    I've not released 1.1.10 yet, but will soon, just want to use it a bit more to test it out (of course if you git pull you'll get it )

    Thanks to paulie420, smooth, for your help recently (paulie420 spotted a bug in the wayland, suggested the confirmation dialog and tests on wayland and suggesting the alt-z change, smooth pointed out the discrepancy between the help dialog - help said it was F1 when it was really ALT-F1, but now it's ALT-Z and all updated :)

    :P LOL - gonna compile on all the systems!! :P I'm so st0ked now; MagiTerm *IS* my Haiku bbS solution - and its GOOD!!

    added a confirmation dialog to deleting entries.

    Yes!!! :P Thank you for taking suggestions - for Haiku, and Alt-Z [or any] alternative to Alt-F1 Help would be really rad. :)

    added the ability to pin entries to the top, so you can find your favourite bbses quickly incase you import a massive list. (ALT-P on the dialing directory)

    This is awesome! [Not a request, but..] I always liked the TERMINATE 5.0 "Notes" where you could type in anything about a bbS, like the sysop name, and in the Directory you could just start typing and it would snap to that entry... This is just as helpful!

    Changed the help menu shortcut to ALT-Z from ALT-F1

    And.......... B00M! Thanks for all this work, APAM - MagiTerm lives on all my systems!

    Added to git.. You can now add a memo to an entry, press tab in the lister to switch views between viewing address/port and memo.

    name, and in the Directory you could just start typing and it would snap to that entry... This is just as helpful!

    You should be able to do that already, on the listing place, just start typing the BBS name and it should jump to the first matching entry.

    hit escape to "clear" the seach (or up/down etc)

    More awesome stuff, APAM! :P I love it when you get into your hack-all-the-things moods - and bbSers gain because of them. Thank you kindly - will update the systems. Again, this is invaluable on my Haiku setup and I find myself opening Magi on my main laptop more too.
