Iniquity v10.00 - October 24, 1997 - Build [bbsdev]
--------------------------------------------------
+ Replaced global "Auto-validate uploads" w/per-user auto-validate.
+ Added return receipt request feature
+ Added confirmation dialog when exiting terminal and still connected.
+ Added hangup confirmation dialog box to terminal.
+ Added paramaters to "*%" menu command, see iniquity.doc.
! File tracking now works.
! If you did not hit enter at all in the FSE, and then saved the message by
  pressing ESC+S, it would not be saved, this has been fixed.
! File/Message area listing now pauses.
+ There are now 2 extra pages of WFC options, all of which you can define
  in SystemConfig|WFCConfig|WFCCommands.
+ Put MiniDOS "ext" command back in.
+ Added external chat program capability, Iniquity will look for "CHAT.BAT"
  in your main BBS directory, if found it will use that instead of the
  internal chat.  Create a "CHATR.BAT" if you also want the chat program
  to handle paging you and getting a reason from the user.  IQ generates
  all dropfiles when executing these programs.
+ Added external FSE capability, Iniquity will look for "EDITOR.BAT" in your
  main BBS directory, if found it will generate the MSGINF/MSGTMP files and
  then launch that batch file instead of using the internal FSE.  IQ
  generates all dropfiles when executing this program.
+ Changed chat hour system from just a start & end time to a
  start & end time for each day of the week.
+ Iniqmail has been rewritten, works alot better and faster.
+ Added a voting system.
+ Added a timebank.
+ New dropfile formats:
   CALLINFO.BBS : Originally used in Wildcat v1 & v2, eliminated in v3. Some
                  doors still use this.            
   DOORFILE.SR  : Used by Solaria Games' doors (ie Barren Realms Elite).
   TRIBBS.SYS   : Originally used in TriBBS, quite a few doors support this.
   USERINFO.DAT : Originally used in Wildcat v3, a few doors use this.
+ New configuration items:

   WFC Command Editor : System Config|WFC Config|WFC Command Editor
