233 Release Notes

Fixed: Dream Seeker's info panels were toggling on after the user had specifically turned them off. This behavior now only occurs when the user first logs into a new world. (Zilal)
Fixed: Empty text arguments ("") were not correctly being parsed either on the command line or through the panels. (Zilal)
Fixed: Dream Seeker's list argument prompts were occassionally parsing incorrectly.
Fixed: The guest key was getting all kinds of bad sounding messages (like access denied) as well as incorrect messages (like dantom connection failed) because it doesn't have an account.
Fixed: The default dantom-port setting wasn't correctly working, making new players unable to connect to dantom.
Fixed: Stat icons weren't getting refreshed after they were uploaded to the client.
Fixed: Dream Seeker's savefile io was extremely slow. It should be speedier now. (Deadron)
Fixed: a pure read operation (such as F["mydir"] >> myvar) was creating the source directory if it didn't already exist. It no longer does that. Only a write operation will create a data directory.
Fixed: Dream Maker's "Undo" function was crashing when the buffer contained too many entries (Zilal)
Fixed: The world.maxx, maxy, and maxz settings were not being cleared between compiles.
There is a new "full screen" (Ctrl+F) mode that allows the map & info panes to be temporarily toggled. There are also keys (Ctrl+M, Ctrl+I) for setting the modes individually.
Removed the default Stat() output. The following code gives the same effect:
Added some new security features to the server. There are now three levels of safety: -trusted, -safe, and -ultrasafe. The -trusted security setting gives full access to the system. The -safe setting disallows use of shell() and only allows access to files in the current directory, and the -ultrasafe setting only allows access to temporary files.
By default, worlds are run in -ultrasafe mode. However, a .dmb file in a directory by the same name (eg world/world.dmb) will be run instead in -safe mode. When an unauthorized file or shell command is executed from Dream Seeker, the user will be prompted for authorization. Dream Daemon allows manual setting of the security before the world is executed. Note that the dantom hosting service always runs worlds as -safe.
How will all of this affect you? It probably won't even be noticed. Most worlds will be run in -safe mode, which means that they can have full file access within the current directory or below. Only worlds which are run in an incongruent directory (such as the desktop) or which access other files in the filesystem will result in security prompts, and of course those may be bypassed manually.
