1.4.1 (29.09.2005):
- fixed range checking bugs here and there;
- improved error reporting and made PSP more verbose, new error_reporting and error_halt
options in psp.conf;
- added GZIP output compression support, included PasZLib library, added new gzip unit and
gztest.pp example;
- updated docs, added PSP FAQ and provided some information about crosscompilation.
------
1.4.0 (10.09.2005):
- Actually absolutely new PSP library. 95% code are new, 100% of docs are new.
Too many changes to list here. See the documentation for further infomation. Here
are just some major notes;
- PSP2-compliant code style (though incompatible with PSP 1.3.x);
- Rewritten and improved units are - urlenc (httpenc), substrings.
- Absolutely new units are - base64enc (Base64 encoding), hostname (addition for sockets),
http (HTTP client API), md5crypt (MD5 hashing), regexp (perl compatible regular
expressions), smtp (SMTP client API);
- Reborn (old names, new contents) units are - fileshare (portable shared file access),
sds (SDS2/SQL table manager), web (web programming unit);
- New docs, new logos, new license (OpenSource Artistic License);
- OpenSource SVN development base, SourceForge package archive.
------
1.3.3 (16.01.2005):
- A small fix that makes possible using web unit outside of webserver's environment
(of course if you don't use any CGI-specific functions from it).
------
1.3.2 (27.12.2004):
- Small bugfix in web.pp multipart/form-data handling: just one mistake didn't let
your programs upload files. This bug presents in PSP 1.3.1 only.
------
1.3.1 (16.12.2004):
- Fixed a small security bug in Sessions mechanism. Don't worry, it is not so terrible;
- GET is not limited with 255 chars any more. Since this version for all Win32, UNIX and
OS/2 platforms GET and COOKIE length is not limited.
- Web_GetEnv functions to get the environmental variables directly in your programs.
------
1.3.0 (12.12.2004):
- Required FPC 1.9.X. PSP 1.3 uses some advanced features of FPC 1.9.4 (or higher)
so FPC 1.0.10 is no further supported. Please make sure you have latest compiler version;
- Extended Substrings using containing 9 most useful functions to work with AnsiStrings;
- FileShare unit which provides file locking/unlocking/suspending functions. It avoids
conflicts between several processes/copies of your program;
- Web_TMail class which implements SMTP mail sending standards in Pascal. With it you
can set message properties, attach files, use SMTP auth, etc.;
- Simple Data Storage (SDS) 1.3. SDS has been rewritten. Since 1.3 it is thread-safe,
faster, more flexible. Table structure is more unified. Row identifier is always [0]
element in the array, it is auto increment and plays the key role, but you should access
it just as other fields. No more "ByID" functions;
- Session table is created automatically due to config in psp.ini file;
- Session mechanism improvement: sessions have become more secure and bug-proof;
- Fixes in documentation, docs for new units. Russian documentation is no further
supported because documenting takes more time than programming, so it suspends the
project growth. But we'll pay more attention to English docs;
- Code/memory/performance optimizations;
- Fixed several bugs in multipart/form-data handling functions;
- New functions in web.pp: Web_RandPass (for random word generation), Web_UnsetVar
(to unset vars). Web_Crypt is not provided any more because it is to dangerous (may
hang the machine);
- Probably some more bugfixes not mentioned above.
------
1.2.2 (06.07.2004):
- This time all the changes are connected with formatted output. This update brings
ability to format strings/output like in PHP/Perl with $variable sequences.
- New functions are: Web_SetVar, Web_FormatStr, Web_Out, Web_OutLn, Web_TemplateOut.
------
1.2.1 (28.06.2004):
- Some tiny optimisations;
- New Web_ResourceOut function for outputting such files as images, stylesheets (and lots more) with PSP;
- Rewritten web_date unit: 1 universal Web_FormatDate function instead of old 3.
------
1.2.0 (23.06.2004):
- PSP have become even faster, easier to use and takes less memory!
- Code optimisation in each unit.
- Fixed some bugs.
- Some new options in configuration file, some old are removed.
- No more cgi as argument! Just use "GetVar('varname')" and so on.
- Fast unlimited (or limited how you wish) form based file uploads.

------
1.0.5 (15.03.2004):
- Fixed SubstrReplace: substring replacement is now protected from recursion.
For example, earlier line "s:=SubstrReplace('Very ICE line','ICE','NICE')" could
loop forever and now it works correctly;
- Added GET request method support for Windows and Linux. On Windows query string
is limited to 256 characters. There are no limits on Linux.
------
1.0.4 (27.02.2004):
- Fixed bug with %2A (* char);
