WWIV BBS TODO List

Copyright 2002-2018, WWIV Software Services

FTN

  • add option to save packets
  • ability to put more than 1 message per packet.
  • zone:region/node is acceptible (not just zone:net/node)

Ini Files and Configuration

Container work

  • Add WWIV_CONFIG_DIR to point to where the config.json file lives (default to config.dat's data)
  • Create default directory structure for in containers
  • move all binaries to bin, see what breaks

Infrastructure Cleanup

  • Try to remove a()->current_net() and a()->net_num(), pass in the net as much as possible.

  • make container that holds net_networks_rec and the current network number

  • cleanup wfc since we aren't waiting for a call

  • add tests for usermanager and user (in SDK)

  • Update syscfg.sysconfig in init and save it back, since wwiv never saves config.dat anymore.

  • stop using strncpy, strcpy.

  • Create a SDK QScan class to wrap interacting with the WWIV qscan variables and also load/save user.qsc

  • Move to LibSSH on all platforms

  • Run various asan/tsan's regularly with gcc via CMake

  • start using clock more.

  • move to datetime as much as possible.

  • Stop calling input use the input_xxx routines instead. Make Input1 just support a fixed set of characters (like numbers, A-Z, high ascii too, etc).

Networking Cleanup

  • Figure out why new networking stack doesn't work for mark.

core::File Improvements

  • start migrating core::File towards fs::filesystem and fs::path naming. (in progress)
    • also todo is to figure out if we want to add some interoperability with iostreams here. Note: This needs C++17 (ish) support, so needs debian9 as the baseline since GCC 4.x only suppors std=gnu++14 as the latest.
  • File::lock doesn't seem to be finished

Feature Improvements

  • Add pipe code and heart code support to wwivutil print.
    • This needs a context class to hold current session state that is now spit across Application class and other global variables.
  • make a common ACS system (like TG, vs. having separate SL DSL AR fields everywhere for menus)
  • cleanup menu system. It's awful.

Linux Work

  • TopScreen doesn't work with CursesIO
  • stop using localIO()->WhereX to determine remote position

Net52

Message Areas

  • detangle global net_email_name (maybe it needs to be added to EmailData?)
  • Make the emailmessage extend the message so most things are common between them.

  1. Guest user account. Is it useful? - Yes, it just needs to be improved and documented.
