   4         * erc-lang.el (language):
   5         * erc-backend.el (erc-server-connect): Fix buggy call to `message'.
   6
   7 2007-12-06  D. Goel  <deego3@gmail.com>
   8
   9         * erc-match.el (erc-add-entry-to-list): Fix buggy call to `error'.
  10
  11 2007-12-01  Glenn Morris  <rgm@gnu.org>
  12
  13         * erc-backend.el (erc-server-send-ping): Move after definition of
  14         erc-server-send.
  15
  16         * erc.el (iswitchb-temp-buflist, iswitchb-read-buffer)
  17         (erc-controls-strip): Declare for compiler.
  18         (erc-iswitchb): Don't require iswitchb when compiling.  Test
  19         iswitchb-mode is bound.
  20
  21 2007-11-30  Dan Nicolaescu  <dann@ics.uci.edu>
  22
  23         * erc.el (open-ssl-stream, open-tls-stream, erc-network-name):
  24         Declare as functions.
  25
  26 2007-11-29  Giorgos Keramidas  <keramida@ceid.upatras.gr>  (tiny change)
  27
  28         * erc-backend.el, erc.el:
  29         Parse 307 (nick has identified) responses.
  30
  31 2007-11-15  Juanma Barranquero  <lekktu@gmail.com>
  32
  33         * erc.el (erc-open):
  34         * erc-backend.el (define-erc-response-handler):
  35         * erc-log.el (log):
  36         * erc-match.el (erc-log-matches): Fix typos in docstrings.
  37
  38 2007-11-11  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
  39
  40         * erc-autoaway.el (erc-autoaway-possibly-set-away):
  41         * erc-netsplit.el (erc-netsplit-timer):
  42         * erc-notify.el (erc-notify-timer):
  43         * erc-track.el (erc-user-is-active): Only run if we have
  44         successfully established a connection to the server and have
  45         logged in.  I suspect that sending messages too soon may make some
  46         IRC servers not respond well, particularly when the network
  47         connection is iffy or subject to traffic-shaping.
  48
  49 2007-11-01  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
  50
  51         * erc-compat.el (erc-set-write-file-functions): New compatibility
  52         function to set the write hooks appropriately.
  53
  54         * erc-log.el (erc-log-setup-logging): Use
  55         erc-set-write-file-functions.  This fixes a byte-compiler warning.
  56
  57         * erc-stamp.el: Silence byte-compiler warning about
  58         erc-fill-column.
  59
  60         * erc.el (erc-with-all-buffers-of-server): Bind the result of
  61         mapcar to a variable in order to silence a byte-compiler warning.
  62
  63 2007-10-29  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
  64
  65         * erc-ibuffer.el (erc-modified-channels-alist): Use
  66         eval-when-compile, and explain why we are doing this.
  67
  68 2007-10-25  Dan Nicolaescu  <dann@ics.uci.edu>
  69
  70         * erc-ibuffer.el (erc-modified-channels-alist): Pacify
  71         byte-compiler.
  72
  73 2007-10-13  Glenn Morris  <rgm@gnu.org>
  74
  75         * erc-track.el (erc-modified-channels-update): Use mapc rather
  76         than mapcar.
  77
  78 2007-10-12  Diane Murray  <disumu@x3y2z1.net>
  79
  80         * erc.el (erc-join-channel): Prompt for channel key if C-u or
  81         another prefix-arg was typed.
  82
  83         * NEWS: Noted this change.
  84
  85 2007-10-07  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
  86
  87         * erc.el (erc-cmd-ME'S): New command that handles the case where
  88         someone types "/me's".  It concatenates the text " 's" to the
  89         beginning of the input and then sends the result like a normal
  90         "/me" command.
  91         (erc-command-regexp): Permit single-quote character.
  92
  93 2007-09-30  Aidan Kehoe  <kehoea@parhasard.net>  (tiny change)
  94
  95         * erc-log.el (erc-save-buffer-in-logs): Prevent spurious warnings
  96         when looking at a log file and concurrently saving to it.
  97
  98 2007-09-18  Exal de Jesus Garcia Carrillo  <exal@gnu.org>  (tiny change)
  99
 100         * erc.texi (Special-Features): Fix small typo.
 101
 102 2007-09-16  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 103
 104         * erc-track.el (erc-track-switch-direction): Mention
 105         erc-track-faces-priority-list.  Thanks to Leo for the suggestion.
 106
 107 2007-09-11  Exal de Jesus Garcia Carrillo  <exal@gnu.org>  (tiny change)
 108
 109         * erc-sound.el: Fix typo in setting up instructions.
 110
 111 2007-09-10  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 112
 113         * Makefile (elpa): Copy dir template rather than echoing a few
 114         lines.  The reason for this is that the ELPA package for ERC was
 115         getting a corrupt dir entry.
 116
 117         * dir-template: Template for the ELPA dir file.
 118
 119 2007-09-08  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 120
 121         * erc-log.el (erc-log-filter-function): New option that specifies
 122         the function to call for filtering text before writing it to a log
 123         file.  Thanks to David O'Toole for the suggestion.
 124         (erc-save-buffer-in-logs): Use erc-log-filter-function.  Make sure
 125         we carry along the value of coding-system-for-write, because this
 126         could potentially be shadowed by the temporary buffer.
 127
 128         * erc.el (erc-version-string): Update to 5.3, development version.
 129
 130 2007-09-07  Glenn Morris  <rgm@gnu.org>
 131
 132         * erc.el (erc-toggle-debug-irc-protocol): Fix call to
 133         erc-view-mode-enter.
 134
 135 2007-08-08  Glenn Morris  <rgm@gnu.org>
 136
 137         * erc-log.el, erc.el: Replace `iff' in doc-strings and comments.
 138
 139 2007-09-03  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 140
 141         * erc.el (erc-default-port): Make this an integer value rather
 142         than a string.  Thanks to Luca Capello for the report.
 143
 144 2007-08-27  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 145
 146         * erc.el (erc-cmd-GQUIT): If erc-kill-queries-on-quit is non-nil,
 147         kill all query buffers after 4 seconds.
 148
 149 2007-08-16  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 150
 151         * NEWS: Add ERC 5.3 changes section, and mention jbms' erc-track
 152         compatibility note.
 153
 154         * erc-track.el (erc-track-list-changed-hook): Turn this into a
 155         customizable option.
 156         (erc-track-switch-direction): Add 'importance option.
 157         (erc-modified-channels-display): If erc-track-switch-direction is
 158         'importance, call erc-track-sort-by-importance.
 159         (erc-track-face-priority): New function that returns a number
 160         indicating the position of a face in
 161         erc-track-faces-priority-list.
 162         (erc-track-sort-by-importance): New function that sorts
 163         erc-modified-channels-list according to erc-track-face-priority.
 164         (erc-track-get-active-buffer): Make 'oldest a rough opposite of
 165         'importance.
 166
 167 2007-08-14  Jeremy Maitin-Shepard  <jbms@cmu.edu>
 168
 169         * erc-track.el (erc-track-remove-disconnected-buffers): New
 170         variable which controls whether buffers associated with a server
 171         that is disconnected should be removed from
 172         `erc-modified-channels-alist'.  Existing behavior is to
 173         unconditionally remove such buffers, which is achieved by setting
 174         `erc-track-removed-disconnected-buffers' to t.  When set to t,
 175         which is the new default value, such buffers remain in the list,
 176         which I think is often the desired behavior, since the user may
 177         likely wish to find out about activity that occurred in a channel
 178         prior to it being disconnected.
 179         (erc-track-list-changed-hook): New hook that is run whenever the
 180         contents of `erc-modified-channels-alist' changes; it is useful
 181         for users such as myself that don't use the default mode-line
 182         notification but instead use a separate mechanism (which is tied
 183         to my window manager) to provide notification of channel activity.
 184         (erc-track-get-buffer-window): New function that acts as a wrapper
 185         around `get-buffer-window' that handles the `selected-visible'
 186         option of `erc-track-visibility'; previously, the value of
 187         `erc-track-visibility' was passed directly to `get-buffer-window',
 188         which does not support `selected-visible'; consequently,
 189         `selected-visible' was not properly supported.
 190         (erc-track-modified-channels): Fix a bug in the logic for removing
 191         buffers from the list in certain cases.
 192         (erc-track-position-in-mode-line): Add a supported value that
 193         specifies that the tracking information should not be added to the
 194         mode line at all.  The value of nil is used to indicate that the
 195         information should not be added at all to the mode line.
 196         (erc-track-add-to-mode-line): Check for position eq to t, rather
 197         than non-nil.
 198         (erc-buffer-visible): Use erc-track-get-buffer-window.
 199         (erc-modified-channels-update): Take
 200         erc-track-remove-disconnected-buffers into account.
 201         (erc-modified-channels-display): Run
 202         `erc-track-list-changed-hook'.
 203
 204         * erc.el (erc-reuse-frames): New option that determines whether
 205         new frames are always created.  Defaults to t.  This only has an
 206         effect when erc-join-buffer is set to 'frame.
 207         (erc-setup-buffer): Use it.
 208
 209 2007-08-14  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 210
 211         * erc-backend.el (erc-server-reconnect): If the server buffer has
 212         been killed, use the current buffer instead.  If the current
 213         buffer is not an ERC buffer, give an error.  This fixes a bug when
 214         /reconnect is run from a channel buffer whose server buffer has
 215         been deleted.  Thanks to jbms for the report.
 216         (erc-process-sentinel-1): Take server buffer as an argument, so
 217         that we can make sure that it is current.
 218         (erc-process-sentinel): Pass buffer to erc-process-sentinel-1.
 219         (erc-process-sentinel-2): New function split from
 220         erc-process-sentinel-1.  If server buffer is deleted during a
 221         reconnect attempt, stop trying to reconnect.  Fix bug where
 222         reconnect was not happening when erc-server-reconnect-attempts was
 223         t.  Call erc-server-reconnect-p only once each time.  If we are
 224         instructed to try connecting indefinitely, tell the user that they
 225         can stop this by killing the server buffer.  Call the process
 226         sentinel by means of run-at-time, so that there is time to kill
 227         the buffer if need be; this also removes the need for a while
 228         loop.  Refuse to reconnect again if erc-server-reconnect-timeout
 229         is not an number.
 230
 231         * erc.el (erc-command-no-process-p): Fix bug: the return value of
 232         erc-extract-command-from-line is a list rather than a single
 233         symbol.  Thanks to jbms for the report.
 234         (erc-cmd-RECONNECT): Use simpler logic, and use buffer-live-p
 235         rather than bufferp.
 236         (erc-send-current-line, erc-display-command, erc-display-msg):
 237         Handle case where erc-server-process is nil, so that /reconnect
 238         works.
 239
 240 2007-08-12  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 241
 242         * erc-identd.el (erc-identd-filter): Instead of sending an EOF
 243         character, which now confuses freenode, stop the server process,
 244         so that no new connections are accepted, and kill the current
 245         client process.
 246
 247 2007-07-30  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 248
 249         * erc-nicklist.el: Remove from the Emacs source tree.  This file
 250         is not release quality, and relies heavily on a module which
 251         cannot be distributed with ERC due to licensing reasons.
 252
 253 2007-07-29  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 254
 255         * erc-list.el: Relicense to GPLv3.  Since the file was already
 256         licensed under version 2 or later, it turns out that we do not
 257         need the permission of all of the authors in order to proceed.
 258
 259 2007-07-25  Glenn Morris  <rgm@gnu.org>
 260
 261         * Relicense all FSF files to GPLv3 or later.
 262
 263 2007-07-13  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 264
 265         * erc-goodies.el (erc-get-bg-color-face, erc-get-fg-color-face):
 266         Use erc-error rather than message and beep.
 267
 268         * erc-sound.el: Indentation fix.
 269
 270         * erc.el (erc-command-no-process-p): New function that determines
 271         if its argument is an ERC command that can be run when the server
 272         process is not alive.
 273         (erc-cmd-SET, erc-cmd-CLEAR, erc-cmd-COUNTRY, erc-cmd-HELP)
 274         (erc-cmd-LASTLOG, erc-cmd-QUIT, erc-cmd-GQUIT)
 275         (erc-cmd-RECONNECT, erc-cmd-SERVER): Denote that these commands
 276         can be run even when the server process is not alive.
 277         (erc-send-current-line): Call erc-command-no-process-p if the
 278         server process is not alive, to determine if we have a command
 279         that can be run anyway.  Thanks to Tom Tromey for the bug report.
 280         (erc-error): New function that either displays a message or throws
 281         an error, depending on whether debug-on-error is non-nil.
 282         (erc-cmd-SERVER, erc-send-current-line): Use it.
 283
 284 2007-07-10  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 285
 286         * Relicense all FSF-assigned code to GPLv3.
 287
 288 2007-06-25  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 289
 290         * erc.texi (Options): Fix typo.
 291         (Getting Help and Reporting Bugs): Update webpage URL.  Make Gmane
 292         part more readable.
 293
 294 2007-06-20  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 295
 296         * erc-stamp.el (erc-timestamp-format-left): New option that
 297         specifies the left timestamp to use for
 298         erc-insert-timestamp-left-and-right.
 299         (erc-timestamp-format-right): New option that specifies the right
 300         timestamp to use for erc-insert-timestamp-left-and-right.
 301         (erc-insert-timestamp-function): Change default to
 302         erc-insert-timestamp-left-and-right.
 303         (erc-insert-away-timestamp-function): Ditto.
 304         (erc-timestamp-last-inserted-left)
 305         (erc-timestamp-last-inserted-right): New variables to keep track
 306         of data for erc-insert-timestamp-left-and-right.
 307         (erc-insert-timestamp-left-and-right): New function that places
 308         timestamps on both the left and right sides of the screen, but
 309         only if each timestamp has changed since it was last computed.
 310         Thanks to offby1 for urging me to merge this.
 311
 312         * erc.el (erc-open-ssl-stream): Display informative error when
 313         ssl.el not found.
 314         (erc-tls): New function to connect using tls.el.
 315         (erc-open-tls-stream): New function to initiate tls connection.
 316         Display informative error when tls.el not found.
 317
 318 2007-06-19  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 319
 320         * erc-log.el: Update header with accurate instructions.
 321
 322 2007-06-17  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 323
 324         * erc-pkg.el: Update description to match what is currently in
 325         ELPA.
 326
 327 2007-06-14  Juanma Barranquero  <lekktu@gmail.com>
 328
 329         * erc-goodies.el (erc-scroll-to-bottom): Remove redundant check.
 330
 331 2007-06-13  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 332
 333         * erc-compat.el (erc-with-selected-window): New compatibility
 334         macro that implements `with-selected-window'.
 335
 336         * erc-goodies.el (erc-scroll-to-bottom): Use it.  This fixes a bug
 337         with buffer ordering where ERC buffers would move to the top.
 338         Thanks to Ivan Kanis for the patch.
 339
 340 2007-06-10  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 341
 342         * erc-log.el (erc-logging-enabled): Fix a bug that occurred when
 343         `erc-log-channels-directory' had the name of a function.
 344
 345 2007-06-06  Juanma Barranquero  <lekktu@gmail.com>
 346
 347         * erc.el (erc-show-channel-key-p, erc-startup-file-list):
 348         Fix typo in docstring.
 349
 350 2007-06-03  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 351
 352         * erc-compat.el (erc-view-mode-enter): Make this its own function,
 353         in order to document what we do, and provide sane fallback
 354         behavior.
 355
 356         * erc.el (erc-toggle-debug-irc-protocol): Don't pass any arguments
 357         to erc-view-mode-enter, since we don't do anything special with
 358         the exit function.  This fixes a bug with Emacs 21 and Emacs 22.

 362
 363         * erc-compat.el (erc-user-emacs-directory): New variable that
 364         determines where to find user-specific Emacs settings.  For Emacs,
 365         this is usually ~/.emacs.d, and for XEmacs this is usually
 366         ~/.xemacs.
 367
 368         * erc.el (erc-startup-file-list): Use erc-user-emacs-directory.
 369
 370 2007-05-28  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 371
 372         * erc-button.el (erc-button-url-regexp): Recognize parentheses as
 373         part of URLs.  Thanks to Lawrence Mitchell for the fix.
 374
 375 2007-05-26  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 376
 377         * erc.texi (Modules): Fix references to completion modules.
 378
 379 2007-05-21  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 380
 381         * Makefile (SOURCE): Remove erc-pkg.el.
 382         (debclean): New rule to clean old Debian packages of ERC.
 383         (debprepare): Don't modify the released tarball, but copy it as
 384         the .orig.tar.gz file.
 385         (debrelease. debrevision): Remove.
 386         (debinstall): New target that copies the generated Debian file to
 387         a distro-specific location.
 388         (deb): New rule that chains together the stages in building a
 389         Debian package.
 390         (EXTRAS): Add erc-nicklist.el, since it is not release-quality.
 391         (extras): Copy images directory.
 392
 393         * erc-nicklist.el (erc-nicklist-icons-directory): Use
 394         locate-library to find the "images" directory.  This should be
 395         more failsafe.  Thanks to Tom Tromey for the idea.
 396
 397 2007-05-19  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 398
 399         * Makefile (ELPA): New variable that contains the location of my
 400         local ELPA repository.
 401         (elpa): New rule that makes an ELPA package for ERC.
 402
 403 2007-04-19  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 404
 405         * erc.el (erc-parse-prefix): New function that retrieves the
 406         PREFIX server parameter from the current server and returns an
 407         alist of prefix type to prefix character.
 408         (erc-channel-receive-names): Use `erc-parse-prefix' to determine
 409         whether the first character of a nick is a prefix character or
 410         not.  This should fix a bug reported by bromine about needing to
 411         type "%" first to complete nicks of people who are "hops" on
 412         Slashnet.  This should also support for very exotic IRC server
 413         setups, if any exist.
 414         (erc-update-current-channel-member): Indentation.
 415
 416 2007-04-15  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 417
 418         * erc-log.el (erc-generate-log-file-name-function): Docfix.
 419         Mention how to deal with the case for putting log files in
 420         different directories.  Change a customization type from `symbol'
 421         to `function'.
 422         (erc-log-channels-directory): Allow this to contain a function
 423         name, which is called with the same args as in
 424         `erc-generate-log-file-name-function'.  Thanks to andrewy for the
 425         report and use case.
 426         (erc-current-logfile): Detect if `erc-log-channels-directory' is a
 427         function and call it with arguments if so.
 428
 429 2007-04-12  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 430
 431         * erc-backend.el (define-erc-response-handler): Mention that hook
 432         processing stops when the function returns non-nil.  This should
 433         help avoid a nasty "gotcha" when making custom functions.  Thanks
 434         to John Sullivan for the report.
 435
 436 2007-04-08  Diane Murray  <disumu@x3y2z1.net>
 437
 438         * erc-nicklist.el (erc-nicklist-voiced-position): Fixed
 439         customization mismatch.
 440
 441 2007-04-01  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 442
 443         * erc.el (erc-version-string): Release ERC 5.2.
 444
 445         * erc-auto.in, erc-chess.el, erc-list.el, erc-speak.el:
 446         * erc-viper.el: Update copyright notices.
 447
 448         * erc.texi: Make Emacs Lisp source code in this document
 449         essentially public domain.  Update version to 5.2.
 450         (Obtaining ERC): Mention extras tarball.
 451         (Releases): Mention local GNU mirror.
 452         (Sample Configuration): Remove notice.
 453
 454         * FOR-RELEASE (5.3): Add item for erc-nicklist.
 455         Mark NEWS as done.  Mark extras tarball as done.
 456
 457         * Makefile (VERSION): Increment to 5.2.
 458         (TESTING): Remove.
 459         (EXTRAS): New variable containing the contents of our "Emacs 22
 460         extras" tarball.
 461         (SOURCE): Remove $(TESTING).
 462         (MISC): Add COPYING and ChangeLog.06.  Fix ChangeLog.NNNN ->
 463         ChangeLog.NN.
 464         (release): Use $(SNAPDIR) instead of erc-$(VERSION).
 465         (extras): New rule which implements the building of the extras
 466         tarball.
 467         (upload-extras): New rule to upload the extras tarball.  It's
 468         yucky to replicate upload, but oh well.
 469         (DISTRIBUTOR): New variable used to differentiate between building
 470         packages for Ubuntu and Debian.
 471         (debrelease, debrevision): Use it.
 472         (debbuild): Run linda in addition to lintian.
 473
 474         * NEWS: Mention extras tarball.  Note which files have been
 475         renamed.  Note that erc-list is enabled by default, except in
 476         Emacs 22.
 477
 478         * README.extras: New file which serves as a README for the extras
 479         tarball.
 480
 481 2007-03-31  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 482
 483         * NEWS: Update for the 5.2 release.
 484
 485         * FOR-RELEASE: Finish up 5.2 manual item.  Add documentation item
 486         for 5.3.
 487
 488         * erc.texi (Sample Session): Flesh out.  Mention #erc.
 489         (Modules): Defer to 5.3 release.
 490         (Advanced Usage): Move Sample Configuration chapter ahead of
 491         unfinished chapters.
 492         (Sample Configuration): Write.
 493         (Options): Mention how to see available ERC options.  Defer to 5.3
 494         release.
 495         (Tips and Tricks): Remove, since it seems better to just include
 496         tips and tricks in the sample configuration, commented out.
 497
 498         * erc-bbdb.el (erc-bbdb-search-name-and-create): Make prompt more
 499         informative about how to skip merging.
 500         (erc-bbdb-insinuate-and-show-entry-1): Move contents of
 501         erc-bbdb-insinuate-and-show-entry here.
 502         (erc-bbdb-insinuate-and-show-entry): Run
 503         erc-bbdb-insinuate-and-show-entry-1 "outside" of the calling
 504         function, so that we can avoid triggering a process-filter error
 505         if the user hits C-g.
 506
 507 2007-03-30  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 508
 509         * FOR-RELEASE: Solve C-c C-SPC keybinding dilemma.
 510
 511         * erc-autoaway.el (erc-autoaway-idle-method): Use `if' rather than
 512         `cond' and `set' rather than `set-default'.
 513
 514         * erc-log.el: Avoid compiler warning by requiring erc-network
 515         during compilation.
 516         (erc-generate-log-file-name-function): Add tag to each option.
 517         Add erc-generate-log-file-name-network.
 518         (erc-generate-log-file-name-network): New function which generates
 519         a log file name that uses network name rather than server name,
 520         when possible.
 521
 522         * erc-track.el (track): Assimilate track-when-inactive module,
 523         since there's no need to have two modules in one file -- an option
 524         will do.  Remove track-modified-channels alias.  Call
 525         erc-track-minor-mode-maybe, and tear down the minor mode when
 526         disabling.
 527         (erc-track-when-inactive): New option which determines whether to
 528         track visible buffers when inactive.  The default is not to do so.
 529         (erc-track-visibility): Mention erc-track-when-inactive.
 530         (erc-buffer-visible): Use erc-track-when-inactive.
 531         (erc-track-enable-keybindings): New option which determines
 532         whether to enable the global-level tracking keybindings.  The
 533         default is to do so, unless they would override another binding,
 534         in which case we prompt the user about it.
 535         (erc-track-minor-mode-map): Move global keybindings here.
 536         (erc-track-minor-mode): New minor mode which only enables the
 537         keybindings and does nothing else.
 538         (erc-track-minor-mode-maybe): New function which starts
 539         erc-track-minor-mode, but only if it hasn't already been started,
 540         an ERC buffer exists, and the user OK's it, depending on the value
 541         of `erc-track-enable-keybindings'.
 542         (erc-track-switch-buffer): Display a message if someone calls this
 543         without first enabling erc-track-mode.
 544
 545 2007-03-17  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 546
 547         * erc.texi (Development): Mention ErcDevelopment page on
 548         emacswiki.
 549         (Getting Started): Mention ~/.emacs.d/.ercrc.el and the Customize

 552         sample ERC session.
 553         (Special Features): New section that explains some of the special
 554         features of ERC.  Taken from ErcFeatures on emacswiki, with
 555         enhancements.
 556
 557 2007-03-12  Diane Murray  <disumu@x3y2z1.net>
 558
 559         * erc-autoaway.el (erc-autoaway-idle-method): When setting the new
 560         value, disable and re-enable `erc-autoaway-mode' only if it was
 561         already enabled.  This fixes a bug where autoaway was enabled just
 562         by loading the file.
 563
 564 2007-03-10  Diane Murray  <disumu@x3y2z1.net>
 565

 574         `erc-capab-get-unidentified-nickname'.
 575         (erc-capab-identify-add-prefix): Use it.  Use
 576         `erc-capab-identify-unidentified' as the face.
 577
 578         * erc-backend.el (290): Moved here from erc-capab.el.
 579
 580         * erc.el (erc-select): Added an autoload cookie.
 581         (erc-message-type-member, erc-restore-text-properties): Use
 582         `erc-get-parsed-vector'.
 583         (erc-auto-query): Set the default to 'bury since many new users
 584         expect private messages from others to be in dedicated query
 585         buffers, not the server buffer.
 586         (erc-common-server-suffixes): Use "freenode" for freenode.net, not
 587         "OPN".  Added oftc.net.
 588
 589         * NEWS: Added note about erc-auto-query's new default setting.
 590
 591 2007-03-03  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>

 596
 597         * FOR-RELEASE: Make section for 5.3 release and move erc-backend
 598         cleanup there.  Awaiting discussion before doing other things.
 599         Add tasks for merging filename changes from the 5.2 release
 600         branch, and for making a tarball of modules not in Emacs 22.  Add
 601         item to remind me to update NEWS.  Mark backtab entry as done.
 602
 603         * erc-button.el (button): Add call to `erc-button-add-keys'.
 604         (erc-button-keys-added): New variable tracking whether we've added
 605         the keys yet.
 606         (erc-button-add-keys): New function that adds the <backtab> key to
 607         erc-mode-map.
 608
 609         * erc.texi: Change version to 5.2 (pre-release).
 610
 611 2007-02-15  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>

 614
 615         * erc-backend.el (erc-server-send-ping-interval): Change to use a

 617         (erc-server-send-ping-timeout): New option that determines when to
 618         consider a connection stalled and restart it.  The default is
 619         after 120 seconds.
 620         (erc-server-send-ping): Use erc-server-send-ping-timeout instead
 621         of erc-server-send-ping-interval.  If
 622         erc-server-send-ping-timeout is nil, do not ever kill and restart
 623         a hung IRC process.
 624
 625         * erc.el (erc-modules): Include the name of the module in its
 626         description.  This should make it easier for people to find and
 627         enable a particular module.
 628
 629 2007-02-15  Vivek Dasmohapatra  <vivek@etla.org>

 635
 636         * erc-backend.el (erc-server-reconnecting): New variable that is
 637         set when the user requests a reconnect, but the old process is
 638         still alive.  This forces the reconnect to work even though the
 639         process is killed manually during reconnect.
 640         (erc-server-connect): Initialize it.
 641         (erc-server-reconnect-p): Use it.
 642         (erc-process-sentinel-1): Set it to nil after the first reconnect
 643         attempt.
 644
 645 2007-02-07  Diane Murray  <disumu@x3y2z1.net>
 646
 647         * erc-menu.el (erc-menu-definition): Fixed so that the separator
 648         is between "Current channel" and "Pals, fools and other keywords",
 649         not at the bottom of the "Current channel" submenu.
 650
 651 2007-01-25  Diane Murray  <disumu@x3y2z1.net>
 652
 653         * erc-networks.el (erc-server-alist): Removed SSL server for now
 654         since `erc-server-select' doesn't know to use `erc-ssl'.
 655
 656         * erc-networks.el (erc-server-alist, erc-networks-alist): Added
 657         definitions for oftc.net.

 660

 662
 663         * erc-backend.el (erc-server-error-occurred): New variable that
 664         indicates when an error has been signaled by the server.  This
 665         should fix an infinite reconnect bug when giving some servers a
 666         bogus :full-name.  Thanks to Angelina Carlton for the report.
 667         (erc-server-connect): Initialize erc-server-error-occurred.
 668         (erc-server-reconnect-p): Use it.
 669         (ERROR): Set it.
 670
 671         * erc-services.el (erc-nickserv-alist): Alphabetize and add Ars
 672         and QuakeNet.  Standardize look of entries.  Fix type mismatch
 673         error in customize interface.
 674         (erc-nickserv-passwords): Alphabetize and add missing entries from
 675         erc-nickserv-alist.
 676
 677 2007-01-21  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 678
 679         * erc.el (erc-header-line-format): Document how to disable the
 680         header line, and add a customization type for it.  Also, make the
 681         changes take effect immediately.
 682
 683 2007-01-19  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 684
 685         * erc.texi (Modules): Document new menu module.  Thanks to Leo
 686         for noticing.
 687
 688 2007-01-16  Diane Murray  <disumu@x3y2z1.net>
 689
 690         * erc-stamp.el (erc-insert-timestamp-left): Fixed so that the
 691         whitespace string filler is hidden correctly when timestamps are
 692         hidden.
 693         (erc-toggle-timestamps): New function to use instead of
 694         `erc-show-timestamps' and `erc-hide-timestamps'.
 695
 696         * erc.el (erc-restore-text-properties): Moved here from
 697         erc-fill.el since it could be useful in general.
 698
 699         * erc-fill.el (erc-restore-text-properties): Removed.
 700
 701 2007-01-13  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>

 704         a command.
 705         (erc-send-input): Use it.  This fixes a bug where paths --
 706         "/usr/bin/foo", for example -- were being displayed as commands,
 707         but still sent correctly.
 708         (erc-extract-command-from-line): Use it.
 709
 710         * erc.texi (Modules): Document erc-capab-identify.
 711
 712 2007-01-11  Diane Murray  <disumu@x3y2z1.net>
 713
 714         * erc.el (erc-find-parsed-property): Moved here from erc-track.el
 715         since it can be useful in general.
 716
 717         * erc-track.el (erc-find-parsed-property): Removed.
 718
 719         * erc-capab.el (erc-capab-find-parsed): Removed.
 720         (erc-capab-identify-add-prefix): Use `erc-find-parsed-property'.
 721
 722         * erc.el (erc-open): Run `erc-before-connect' hook here.  This
 723         makes sure the hook always gets called before a connection is
 724         made, as some functions, like `erc-handle-irc-url', use `erc-open'
 725         instead of `erc'.
 726         (erc): Removed `erc-before-connect' hook.
 727
 728         * erc-menu.el (erc-menu-definition): Put items specific to
 729         channels in a "Current channel" submenu.
 730
 731         * erc-backend.el (321, 323): Display channel list in server buffer
 732         when not using the channel list module.
 733
 734         * erc.el: Updated copyright years.
 735         (erc-version-string): Set to 5.2 (devel).
 736         (erc-format-lag-time): Fixed to work when `erc-server-lag' is nil.
 737         (erc-update-mode-line-buffer): Set the header face.
 738
 739 2007-01-11  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 740
 741         * erc-bbdb.el (erc-bbdb-popup-type): Fix customization type and
 742         documentation.
 743
 744         * erc-services.el (erc-nickserv-identify-mode): Improve
 745         documentation for nick-change option and move higher to fix
 746         compiler warning.  Avoid a recursive load error.
 747         (erc-nickserv-alist): Add simple entry for BitlBee, to avoid
 748         "NickServ is AWAY: User is offline" error.  Oddly enough, bitlbee
 749         was smart enough to recognize that as an authentication request
 750         and log in regardless, which is why I didn't notice this earlier.
 751         (erc-nickserv-alist-sender, erc-nickserv-alist-regexp)
 752         (erc-nickserv-alist-nickserv, erc-nickserv-alist-ident-keyword)
 753         (erc-nickserv-alist-use-nick-p)
 754         (erc-nickserv-alist-ident-command): New accessors for
 755         erc-nickserv-alist.  Using nth is unwieldy.
 756         (erc-nickserv-identify-autodetect)
 757         (erc-nickserv-identify-on-connect)
 758         (erc-nickserv-identify-on-nick-change, erc-nickserv-identify): Use
 759         the new accessors.
 760
 761 2007-01-11  Diane Murray  <disumu@x3y2z1.net>
 762
 763         * NEWS: Added note for `erc-my-nick-face'.  Fixed capab-identify
 764         wording.
 765
 766 2007-01-10  Diane Murray  <disumu@x3y2z1.net>
 767
 768         * erc.el (erc-mode-line-format): Added %l to documentation.
 769         (erc-header-line-format): Removed "[IRC]".  Use the new %l
 770         replacement character.  Doc fix.
 771         (erc-format-channel-modes): Removed lag code.  Removed parentheses
 772         from mode string.
 773         (erc-format-lag-time): New function.
 774         (erc-update-mode-line-buffer): Use it.
 775
 776 2007-01-10  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 777
 778         * erc.el: Fix typo in url-irc-function instructions.
 779
 780 2007-01-09  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 781
 782         * erc.el (erc-system-name): New option that determines the system
 783         name to use when logging in.  The default is to figure this out by
 784         calling `system-name'.
 785         (erc-login): Use it.
 786
 787 2007-01-07  Michael Olson  <mwolson@gnu.org>
 788
 789         * erc.el (erc-modules): Add the menu module.  This should fix a
 790         bug with incorrect ERC submenus being displayed.
 791
 792         * erc-menu.el: Turn this into a module.
 793         (erc-menu-add, erc-menu-remove): New functions that add and remove
 794         the ERC menu.
 795
