[ANN]ChatRev1.2

[Mark Schonewille]

Dear Revolution users,

Recently, Björnke von Gierke announced ChatRev 1.2. ChatRev 
enables you to chat with other Revolution users. A new 
alternative client, ChatRev 1.2M13, compatible with the ChatRev 
protocol, is released now. Features include:

- styled text
- multiple lines
- clickable web links
- automatic linking to Bugzilla
- graphical smileys
- multiple clients on one computer/LAN
- multiple clients in Revolution if the stack version is used
- optional interpreting of HTML tags

The stack and standalone versions of ChatRev 1.2M13 can be 
downloaded at <http://home.wanadoo.nl/mark.sch/main.html>. From 
there, follow the link to ChatRev.

QuickStart: If you open ChatRev for the first time, choose the 
default url http://www.revolutionboard.de/bvg/ip.txt from the IP 
URL menu. An IP number will appear in the IP menu. Enter 80 into 
the Port field. Also, enter a user name and a password and click 
on the Connect button. You will be asked to register. Fill out 
the form and click on Okay. Then click on Connect again.

Björn's client is also available, at 
<http://homepage.mac.com/bvg/chatrev1.2.rev> and the server can 
be downloaded from 
<http://homepage.mac.com/bvg/chatrevserver1.2.rev>. It is 
recommended to use the default server, though.

I will release an update shortly, if I receive enough bug 
reports and feature requests.

Best regards,

Mark Schonewille
