Talisman v0.30 is out now.

* Includes various bugfixes to postie, with added debug logging.
* Includes toolbelt adpost command and pack command, for posting text
files to message bases and packing message bases respectively.
* Fixed file search, fixes for Qwkie.
* Added optional newuser.lua to be triggered when a new user signs up.
* bbs_set_user_attribute added to lua scripting to set attributes for
users.
* Added optional scan hook and toss hook to message areas in postie.
* Reworked events, so they start based on the start of the month (or an
optional start day/time), instead of when Servo is started.
* Log files now include the pid of the logging process.

Updated.

files to message bases and packing message bases respectively.

I will have to figure this one out. The packing of message bases needs to
be done in some of the bot echo's here for sure.

* bbs_set_user_attribute added to lua scripting to set attributes
users.

Now that's cool. Could do an automatic verify if they can read or something.

* Log files now include the pid of the logging process.

All great additions man! Thank-you!

Hmm, I will have to add a prune function next. At present the only way to delete without third party tools is each message as you read them.

Squish is supposed to have the ability to set a max messages, and it will automatically delete them but I never implemented that.

Yep, Could do that.

All great additions man! Thank-you!

You're welcome, glad it's helpful :)

Just added pruning to toolbelt, will be in the next release, but will
work like this:

toolbelt prune fsx/bot 500

to prune the bot base down to the most recent 500 messages, then you can
pack it..

toolbelt pack fsx/bot

to reduce the actual file size.

Ahhhh okay.

Does the squish base have a limit on number of messages before it craps out?

I guess it would be the upper limit of an unsigned integer... as that's
what the UMSGID is, but that will count up regardless of if you delete
messages or not.

So, I guess 4,294,967,295 messages..
