Fixed bugs in this release:

1. Clicking Stop cleared the Chat History window, but Starting it up again filled it with the text of the previous session.
2. Relayed chat had "&lt;" in place of "<" and "&gt;" in the place of ">". The replacement is designed only for the Chat History window (which is the same HTML viewer that was once used for the help file and is currently in use for the bug submitter).

New features in this release:

1. The "World" control group was merged with the "Universe" group; the ChatRelayBot will now enter the world at the same time it logs into the universe.
2. A status bar in the "Universe" group of the Control tab reflects the status of the ChatRelayBot.
3. After successfully logging in, the Chat History tab becomes the active tab.
4. You can now submit bug reports through the ChatRelayBot's interface.
5. You can now check for a new version of the ChatRelayBot and automatically download it without visiting the website.
6. Whenever you modify an option, or any of the fields in the "Universe" group, the Save Configuration button's font will turn bold & blue to remind you to save your changes; the button has also been moved to the middle of the tab.
7. It is now possible to select and copy text from the Chat History window.

The following security features have been implemented. Most of these features were suggested by Greg Zanone (aka Sk8man1; gzanone[at]optonline.net).

1. Relayed chat can now be restricted to only those who are bot controllers (users who are given special privilege in the ChatRelayBot) and those with Public Speaker rights.
2. People with eject rights may now use the ChatRelayBot's "/eject" command.
3. Chat color selection may now be restricted to bot controllers and Public Speakers.
4. The "/locate" command may now be restricted to bot controllers.


There are a lot of new features in this release. I've tested them all and they work as they should be expected to. If you encounter a problem, please report it. I wouldn't be surprised if at least one maintenance release was made for 1.04 :)

Fixed bugs in this release:

1. The ChatRelayBot was not minimizing to the tray despite the Minimize to Tray option.

New features in this release:

1. The ChatRelayBot's main dialog can now be resized.

2. There is now a version of the ChatRelayBot available as a Windows NT service. Creating the NT service also forced some minor cleanups in the ChatRelayBot's code.

3. The ChatRelayBot can now either use a 24-hour timestamp or a 12-hour timestamp.

have you ever thought about properly testing the bots before publishing
them? that might help, because im sure no one would redownload your bot like
10 times a week.

If you're interested in helping, assemble a group of people who would be interested in being on a beta team for the CRB & I'll make use of them for pre-release testing. (less than 10 people preferred; get back to me in email) :)
