2003-7-20 Brian Masney <[e-mail]> * lib/config_file.c lib/gftp.h - added compare_function to gftp_config_vars structure. (gftp_set_global_option) use the compare function to see if the value was actually changed, and if so set the gftp_configuration_changed variable * lib/misc.c lib/gftp.h - For glib 1.2, added my version of g_build_path() since it's not there * lib/misc.c - GLIB/GTK+ 1.2 fixes * lib/protocols.c (gftp_fd_open) - cleaned up some * lib/rfc959.c (rfc959_init) - if the email address is blank, get the users address here instead of in register_module. It was being blanked out when the config file was being read * lib/options.h lib/rfc2068.c lib/rfc959.c lib/sshv2.c - mark the config variables that can show up in the bookmarks editor * src/text/gftp-text.c src/gtk/options_dialog.c - use gftp_set_global_option() to set the new configuration values * src/gtk/bookmarks.c - fixed crash in bookmarks dialog. Added notebook widget to the dialog as well. The options that can be edited for this site will show up in other tabs * src/gtk/gftp-gtk.c - fixes to the calls to gftp_set_global_option() * src/gtk/options_dialog.c - added gftp_gtk_setup_bookmark_options() to display all the editable options for this bookmark

This is a list of some of the things I plan to work on for future releases
of gFTP. If there is something you feel should be included in a future
version of gFTP, please email me about it.

*** TODO FOR 2.0.15 ***
* gftp_get_line() - returns 0 if the line lengh is the length of the current 
  buffer
* Override options on a per site basis (backend is done, I just have to make
  a user interface for the gtk+ port)
*** END TODO FOR 2.0.15

* I need to be able to send an event from the core library to the presentation
  layer to have it ask the user a question. I need this for the SSL layer so 
  that if an unknown certificate authority signed the certificate, the user
  can be prompted whether or not to accept it. Also, it would be handy to 
  prompt the user for their password if a bad password was entered. 
* DND - be able to resume transfers
* HTTP - keepalive
* Support tabbed interface in GTK+ port
* Parallel chdir in GTK+ port
* GTK 2.0 port - make 2 buttons in toolbar be the same size as the gnome 2
  icons
* Add option to hide certain files
* Be able to save the state of the transfer queue. Be able to pause transfers.
* For bookmarks, be able to specify a local protocol, host, port, directory
  to connect to
* Show status information in title bar
* -d command line, check if it's a file first, if so download. If not, grab directory
* Add option for @dynamic@ for bookmarks' account
* Playing sounds after certain events or calling external program
* Ratio support
* Recursive directory compares
* Make it be able to download a directory as directory.tar
* Make it execute a program on a url (say rpm -qpi ftp://site.com/file.rpm)
* Full Gnome compatibility.
* Add registered file extensions to options dialog
* VMS directory listings
* Add automatic refresh interval (maybe, this could be used to get around 
  timeouts remote servers may set)
* HTTP: Support CONNECT method in Squid proxy
* Add support for SRP protocol (http://srp.stanford.edu/srp)
* Add support for DAV protocol
* Add support for rsync protocol
