+ (fsi-mv): "
+ (fsi-replace-string): "

+
+2007-11-23 Dave Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * COPYING: Replace by GPL v. 3
+

+
+2007-07-22 Michael Olson <mwolson@gnu.org>
+
+ * README.txt: Mention examples/dotemacs-mybot.
+
+ * examples/dotemacs-mybot: New file that is the example .emacs for
+ the bot.
+
+2007-07-19 Michael Olson <mwolson@gnu.org>
+
+ * erbot.el (erbot-reply): Don't force the message through without
+ flood protection. Since ERC 5.1, ERC has very good flood
+ protection, so make use of it.
+
+2007-04-11 Vivek Dasmohapatra <vivek@etla.org>
+
+ * erbim.el (fs-unicode-describe): add usage instructions
+ (erbim-search-by-description): search for unicode characters by
+ description.
+ (fs-unicode-find): bot-ui wrapper for erbim-search-by-description
+ including usage message.
+ (erbim-name-by-codepoint): changed output format to use #xXXX
+
+2007-01-28 Vivek Dasmohapatra <vivek@etla.org>
+
+ * erbot.el (erbot-join-servers): `erc' takes :keyword style
+ parameters in emacs22, the old argument list no longer works.
+ Work out which erc version we're using and alter the call
+ appropriately.
+
+2007-01-27 Vivek Dasmohapatra <vivek@etla.org>
+
+ * erbutils.el (erbutils-describe-variable): help-button-xref
+ has changed in emacs22, make this function work with it.
+
+2006-11-28 Michael Olson <mwolson@gnu.org>
+
+ * erbot.el (erbot-join-servers): Make this work with the ERC
+ development branch.
+
+2006-09-28 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * erbc.el (fsi-describe-from-english): smarter self search
+ (fsi-generalize-search-term): new, for above.
+
+2006-08-21 Michael Olson <mwolson@gnu.org>
+
+ * erbot.el (erbot-install): Remove check for erc-backend-version,
+ since it no longer exists. Use featurep instead. This fixes a
+ failure to join channels issue with the ERC development branch.
+
+2006-05-18 Vivek Dasmohapatra <vivek@etla.org>
+
+ * erbtranslate.el (fsi-translate): If we can't make sense
+ of the call (not enough arguments) emit a usage message.
+
+2006-05-17 Michael Olson <mwolson@gnu.org>
+
+ * contrib/translate.el (translate-load-pairs): Docfix.
+
+ * erbtranslate.el (fsi-translate-list-services): Use
+ translate-program, not erbn-translate-program, since the latter
+ does not exist.
+
+2006-05-12 Vivek Dasmohapatra <vivek@etla.org>
+
+ * contrib/translate.el: the symbol -> string coercion is not
+ required for arguments to translate.el, that's something
+ specific to user-visible erbot functions.
+
+ * erbtranslate.el: most translation code moved to translate.el
+ fsi-translate-web-page temporarily disabled till I've tested
+ it a bit more and made the implementation a little smarter
+ than it currently is. (It should check ti see if a web page
+ service is actualy available)
+
+2006-05-10 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * erbtranslate.el: update authors
+
+2006-05-10 Vivek Dasmohapatra <vivek@etla.org>
+
+ * erbtranslate.el (fsi-translate-list-pairs): destination language
+ should also be searched for with a case insensitive predicate.
+
+2006-05-09 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * erbtranslate.el: update authors
+
+2006-05-09 Vivek Dasmohapatra <vivek@etla.org>
+
+ * erbtranslate.el (fsi-translate-list-pairs): improved help, return
+ more information when < N pairs, where N is currently 20. (Always
+ return full list if both origin and destination are both supplied)
+ (erbtranslate-full-name): returns a "full name" for a language,
+ consisting of all its human-readable aliases.
+ (erbtranslate-unsupported-langs): list of languages emacs can't utf-8
+ encode yet.
+ (fsi-translate): abort for non-unicodable languages like Arabic and
+ Hebrew.
+ (fsi-translate): Use full names of languages in error messages.
+ (fsi-translate-list-pairs): Use full names of languages in messages.
+
+2006-05-08 Vivek Dasmohapatra <vivek@etla.org>
+
+ * erbtranslate.el (erbtranslate-parse-pair): parse the output of
+ erbn-translate-program --list-pairs.
+ (erbtranslate-load-pairs): load the map of available translations.
+ (fsi-translate-list-pairs): Alter this function so that it only lists
+ possible translations when both an origin and a destination language
+ have been specified. Otherwise just tells the user how many matching
+ language pairs there are.
+ (fsi-translate-list-pairs): coerce the arguments into strings first.
+ (erbtranslate-parse-pair): some (one?) language codes are 3 letter.
+ I thought this was non-canonical but that's what translate returns,
+ so we must support it.
+ (erbtranslate-parse-pair): tidy up error message
+ (erbtranslate-req-to-pair): new. take the (possibly non-canonical)
+ language names from the user and map them to the canonical language
+ codes that translate expects.
+ (fsi-translate): map human-friendly language names in translation
+ request to canonical language codes.
+ (fsi-translate): use the coerced-strings, not the raw language args.
+
+2006-05-08 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * erbtranslate.el (erbn-translate-program): new. Make the program customizeable.
+
+
+ * contrib/shs.el: New shs.el, cleans up temporary files.
+
+2006-04-24 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * erbtranslate.el: DECLARE SAFE. Uses call-process now.
+
+ * erball.el: require erbtranslate.
+
+ * erbutils.el (erbutils-enabled-check): new function.
+
+ * erbtranslate.el: revamp the file to make it secure, not yet final.
+
+2006-04-20 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * erbot.el (erbot-safe-p): Improve this function a bit.
+ (erbot-safe-nocontrol-p): new.

+
+ * erbot.el (erbot-safe-p): change name from erbot-safep
+
+ * erbc.el (erbn-url-functions-p): new variable. Disallow url's
+ unless enabled here. Else potential freeze.
+ (erbn-internal-web-page-time): rename from the one below.
+ (fs-internal-web-page-time): rename to the one above
+ (erbn-url-functions-p): add bug discoverer's name in docstring.
+ (fsi-get-more-invocation-string): new function.
+ (fsi-limit-lines): Make the bot spit something useful instead of
+ ,more, when using weird erbn-char.
+
+2006-04-19 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * erbtranslate.el: fix minor doc typo
+
+2006-04-17 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * erbtranslate.el: adapted from indio's myerc.el. Work in
+ progress. INSECURE. DO NOT USE THIS FILE.
+
+2006-04-07 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * erbot.el (erbot-safe-make): Exception to control characters:
+ Allow \t
+
+2006-03-21 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * erbot.el (erbot-safe-make): new function.
+ (erbot-reply): call erbot-safe-make before replying.
+
+2006-02-28 Michael Olson <mwolson@gnu.org>
+
+ * ChangeLog: Remove use of CVS Revision tag.
+
+2006-02-27 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * erbc2.el (fs-apply): SECURITY FIX! Also, disable when
+ paranoid. Ditto for funcall.
+
+ * erbot.el (erbot-paranoid-p): Make this new variable a catchall
+ for security. t by default. No enablings like erbot-setf-p,
+ etc. will work unless this is non-nil. If this is non-nil, erbot
+ is paranoid, it will not allow apply, setf, funcall, sregex,
+ etc. even if the corresponding variables are turned on.
+
+2006-02-26 Michael Olson <mwolson@gnu.org>
+
+ * erbc.el (fs-flame): Concat multiple arguments together to form
+ the flame target, unless there are only 2 arguments and the last
+ one is a number. In that case, we pick the specified flame.
+
+2006-01-10 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * erbc5.el (symbol-name): minor: provide this fs-function.
+
+
+2006-01-05 Michael Olson <mwolson@gnu.org>
+
+ * README.txt (NOTE): Add directions for getting the units file for
+ contrib/units.el.
+
+ * contrib/units.el: Newly-added file that is recommended on the
+ ErbotInstallation page of emacswiki.org.
+
+
+2006-01-01 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * erblisp.el (erblisp-check-args): Promote to a macro. This macro
+ first removes any arguments that can't be evalled. This happens,
+ when, for example, the user-defined function contained &optional,
+ &rest, etc.
+
+ * erbot.el (erbot-remote): erc-coding-system-for-target was not
+ defined for older versions of erc.
+
+2005-12-31 Vivek Dasmohapatra <vivek@etla.org>
+
+ * erbmsg.el (fs-memo): if a memo command was not recognised,
+ emit an error so we know it happened.
+ (fs-memos): If someone had no memos, return the help-memo
+ text too - makes it easier for people to figure out how it
+ all works.
+
+2005-12-30 Vivek Dasmohapatra <vivek@etla.org>
+
+ * erbot.el (erbot-remote): Decode the incoming data properly
+ paying attention to erc's inbound coding system.
+ (erbot-reply): Now that the inbound data is (hopefully) cleanly
+ decoded we shouldn't need to force the outbound coding.
+ In emacs21, mule-ucs may be required for this to work.
+
+2005-11-10 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * erbot.el (erbot-safep): Make a minor change, to try to render
+ this function live up to its name: make it deem any newlines
+ unsafe. Because of the way the engine works, this change has no
+ effect on erbot at this time.
+ (erbot-safep): minor correction to last change.
+
+2005-11-09 Michael Olson <mwolson@gnu.org>
+
+ * erbot.el (erbot-reply): Make erbot-safep check each line of the
+ split reply. Split the string on both \n and \r. Together, this
+ fixes an exploit in user-defined functions, which involved
+ returning a string like "^Mquit".
+
+2005-11-08 Michael Olson <mwolson@gnu.org>
+
+ * erblisp.el (erblisp-max-list-length): New option that determines
+ how long a sand-boxed list or expression may be.
+ (erblisp-safe-length): New function that checks the given list to
+ make sure it isn't too long. It's able to handle nested lists as
+ well.
+ (erblisp-check-args): New function that calls erblisp-safe-length
+ with the correct args.
+ (erblisp-sandbox): Use erblisp-check-args.
+
+ * erbc3.el (fsi-defun): Add erblisp-check-args invocation to each
+ newly-created user function.
+
+2005-10-12 Michael Olson <mwolson@gnu.org>
+
+ * erbot.el (erbot-join-servers): Use fboundp check;
+ erc-compute-port is a function.
+
+2005-10-05 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * erbot.el (erbot-join-servers): `erc-compute-port' seems to be
+ undefined for my older ERC (4.0). So, I
+ reverted to old behavior when it is undefined. Did I do it right?
+
+2005-10-05 Michael Olson <mwolson@gnu.org>
+
+ * erbot.el (erbot-join-servers): Call `erc-compute-port' instead
+ of using the value of `erc-port', since by default erc-port is
+ nil.
+
+2005-09-02 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * .*.el: Get rid of all string properties everywhere, especially
+ right at the source, for extra security.
+
+ * erbc.el (fsi-read): minor: read-> read-from-string for more
+ safety
+ (erbn-read): new
+ (fsi-read-from-string): new
+ (fsi-describe-variable): use erbn-read for safety
+ (fsi-require): ditto
+
+ * erbbdb.el (erbbdb-add): ditto
+
+2005-08-31 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * erbot.el (erbot-nickserv-p): Add auto-identify code, also enable
+ by default, see doc for erbot-nickserv-p for how to make changes
+ to your bot's .emacs. This is now required by freenode for
+ privmsgs to work.
+ (erbot-nickserv-p): Unde default behavior change. The default
+ behavior of erbot remains as xbefore: to *not*idontify by
+ default.
+
+2005-08-28 Michael Olson <mwolson@gnu.org>
+
+ * contrib/wtf.el: Add to copyright notice.
+ (wtf-alist): Move FTBFS to the "Additional terms go here" section.
+
+2005-08-22 Jose E. Marchesi <jemarch@gnu.org>
+
+ * contrib/haiku.el (fs-haiku): New file
+
+2005-08-16 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * contrib/wtf.el (wtf-alist): add ("FTBFS" . "failure to build from source")
+
+2005-08-15 Michael Olson <mwolson@gnu.org>
+
+ * contrib/wtf.el: I received permission to receive these terms in
+ the public domain.
+ (wtf-alist): Add "TWAT".
+ (wtf-is): Fix Emacs21 issue.
+
+2005-08-11 Michael Olson <mwolson@gnu.org>
+
+ * contrib/wtf.el (wtf-match-string-no-properties): New function
+ that is like match-string-no-properties, but works when that
+ function is not defined.
+ (wtf-get-term-at-point): New function that looks for term at
+ point.
+ (wtf-is): Make use of `wtf-get-term-at-point'.
+
+ * Makefile (clean realclean distclean fullclean): Remove *~ files
+ in contrib directory.
+
+2005-07-09 Michael Olson <mwolson@gnu.org>
+
+ * erball.el: Make sure that the user knows if bbdb cannot be
+ found. Otherwise they will get a non-working bot!
+ (erball-compilation-paths): Add path to BBDB.
+
+2005-07-02 Michael Olson <mwolson@gnu.org>
+
+ * erball.el (erball-compiling-p): Use a custom routine instead of
+ `assoc' to detect "--compile-erbot" since the latter does not seem
+ to work on Emacs 22.
+
+2005-07-01 Michael Olson <mwolson@gnu.org>
+
+ * erball.el (erball-compilation-paths-rel-to): New variable
+ populated by `--paths-rel-to ARG' on the emacs command line,
+ taking the value of ARG.
+ (erball-compiling-p): New variable that is non-nil when
+ `--compile-erbot' is included on the emacs command line. This is
+ used to indicate that we want to compile erbot from a Makefile.
+ (erball-compilation-paths): Elements to add to load-path when the
+ compilation flag, erball-compiling-p, is set.
+ (erball-files): Automatically populate this if erball-compiling-p
+ is set.
+ (erball-compile): If erball-compiling-p is set, use a simpler
+ routine.
+
+ * Makefile: New file that allows erbot to be compiled and
+ installed. Edit the top of the file to indicate where to find
+ emacs and where to install the files.
+
+ * README.txt (URL): Add brief mention of how to compile and
+ install erbot.
+
+2005-06-09 Michael Olson <mwolson@gnu.org>
+
+ * contrib/wtf.el: New file that contains a list of acronyms in
+ `wtf-alist' and the `wtf-is' command to look up a definition.
+
+ * erbtrain.el (erbtrain-utils-teach-acronyms): Use `wtf.el' to
+ teach the given bot some common acronyms.
+
+2005-04-28 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * erbc3.el (fsi-pf-load): Make this error msg more informative.
+
+ * erbc5.el (fsi-ignore-errors-else-string): new.
+
+2005-04-01 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * erbc4.el (fsi-kick): Move from erbc.el to here.
+
+
+2005-04-01 Michael Olson <mwolson@gnu.org>
+
+ * erbot.el (erbot-doctor): Create separate doctor sessions for
+ each channel or query buffer so that responses make sense to the
+ user.
+
+2005-02-21 S Freundt <hroptatyr@gna.org>
+
+ * erbmsg.el: (erbmsg-notify-msg-on-JOIN) [fix] add function set-alist for
+ compatibility to FSF emacsen
+
+2004-07-26 S Freundt <hroptatyr@gna.org>
+
+ * erbmsg.el: (erbmsg-notify-msg-on-JOIN)
+ - fixed bug with last-access used for the first time
+
+2004-06-26 S Freundt <hroptatyr@gna.org>
+
+ * erbmsg.el:
+ - added dump routines to dump message hash tables to hard disk
+ - added routines for restoring from dumped message files
+ - added interval within erbot does not notify on channel joins
+ - added erbmsg-new-msg-(pre|post)-hook
+
+2004-06-13 S Freundt <hroptatyr@gna.org>
+
+ * erbot.el: added new var erbot-on-new-erc-p
+ and handlers for new erc-backend facilities.
+
+ erc versions >1.660 use erc-backend.el to handle server
+ events. erbot is now aware of these new handlers by
+ determining the value `erbot-on-new-erc-p' when calling
+ `erbot-install'.
+ The new backend handlers' values are evaluated within
+ `erbot-remote' fun.
+
+2004-05-07 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * erbwiki.el: Security, add new functions.
+
+ USING LINES < 0.3 FOR WIKI TRAINING WAS A SECURITY RISK, WE
+ THINK.. THOUGH WE HAVEN'T FIGURED OUT HOW TO EXPLOIT IT.
+ lines 0.3 and later fix that risk.
+
+ Also add new functions to erbwiki.el suitable for parsing more
+ wikis.
+
+
+2004-04-06 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * erbc.el (fs-kick): Kicking syntax different? remove nil?
+
+2004-03-28 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * erbcompat.el: name Sebastian as the author :)
+
+ * erbwiki.el (erbwiki-get-fields): remove '... since not
+ recognized by xemacs
+
+2004-03-22 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * erball.el (noninteractive): dunnet should be required only for
+ noninteractive, else it starts a session!
+
+2004-03-21 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * erbc3.el: Redefine and move fs-setq here.
+ (fs-defun): This function was defined twice. Remove the first
+ definition.
+
+ * erbc.el (fs-find-variable-internal): add cosmetic space.
+ (obarray): redefine and mv fs-setq to erbc3
+
+2003-12-30 D Goel <deego@gnufans.org>
+
+ * erbc.el (reverse): add fs-reverse
+
