Most of it is gobbeldy-gook to me, but
Changes in F@h Client v. 4.00
--------------------------------------
- Configurable minimum checkpointing frequency (3-30 minutes). (In GUI, controlled with a slider.)*
- If client run with verbosity of at least 5, FahCore_78 will print out a message whenever a timered checkpoint occurs.*
- -configonly flag added to configure then exit.
- -oneunit flag added to exit after completing one unit.
- -forceSSE flag added. Returns -forceasm to its former meaning of forcing assembly generally, and takes on the function of forcing SSE specifically.*
- Warnings printed if -forceasm/-forceSSE flags given.
- Benchmarking not done except at start of normal operation (for example, not if only configuring, listing queue, deleting unit, etc.).
- Warning if attempt to run client with Machine ID of already running client (catches most common cases, including if running same client twice)
- Web site printed updated.
- Upon finishing a unit, if fails to return the result but succeeds in getting new work, immediately tries sending all results again.
- Checks user name and team number for legality of use in statistics. (In GUI, gives popup error).
- Queue info properly outputted to FAHlog.txt.
- "Ask before connecting" change on Linux -- ignores typeahead and asks for "C"
- Proxy password written out in binary (upon reconfiguration)
- Assignment/work server request authentication
- Send all message altered ("sent x of y" if x not 0, or "no units...")
- CPU usage default of 100 printed out during Configuration.
- Tags in MyFolding page changed to better adhere to HTML standard
- Maximum machine IDs raised to 8.
- Upload and download bandwidths estimated to send to AS.
- If fails to post data, includes server and port in message. Also outputs HTTP status code (before this was only done if I.E. settings used).
- Bug fixed where performance fraction could exceed 1.
Windows specific:
- Version information added to executables.
Windows GUI specific:
- Can select and display any GIF file as a logo, and set a URL for the logo to link to.
- Can add any text to displayed alongside the program title (perhaps something related to your company or team).
- Browser support for more non-Explorer default browsers.
- Bug fixed where current.xyz sometimes wrongly deleted.
OS X Changes for 4.0
- Fix: Log header is now correct.
- Dock menus for viewing stats, log, and queue
- More efficient OpenGL.
- gcc 3.3
* Items with an asterisk require FahCore_78.exe v. 1.53 to be functional -- certain work servers are already forcing downloads of this core.
