Changes in SecureCRT 6.5 (Official) -- December 10, 2009 -------------------------------------------------------- Bug fixes: - SecureCRT could crash if the application's Close button was pressed more than once. - If a key was mapped to a string that contained "\p" (pause), SecureCRT crashed when the key was pressed in the terminal window. Changes in SecureCRT 6.5 (Beta 5) -- December 3, 2009 ----------------------------------------------------- Bug fixes: - If a .XML custom menu and toolbar file contained a menu on the toolbar, SecureCRT crashed when trying to import it into version 6.5. - SecureCRT could crash if text was double clicked while session output was scrolling and was more likely to occur if the scrollback lines were set to 0. - If invalid parameters were passed into the script function Screen.Get2, SecureCRT crashed. - On Windows 7, if the Global.ini option "Disable Aero Peek" was enabled and an Auto session was specified, SecureCRT crashed on start up. - On Windows 7 and Vista, if the option "Only show tabs when there are more than one" was set and a session was connected and then that session and another were opened in a new window, the first session shrunk by two rows. - If the global option "Only show tabs when there are more than one" was set and a second session was connected, the tab status indicator for the first session showed that it was disconnected even though it was connected. - When "ANSI Color" was off, some of the vttest "double-sized characters" tests did not display correctly for VT100 sessions. - If the SecureCRT cursor was blinking or there was blinking text displayed in the session and a menu was activated, the cursor and text stopped blinking. - If a column selection was made, after releasing the ALT key, focus switched to the menu. - If two SecureCRT windows were open in separate processes, if the display theme was changed, the toolbar was not always updated to the new theme in the other windows. - The script function Screen.Get2 only returned the first character. Changes in SecureCRT 6.5 (Beta 4) -- November 11, 2009 ------------------------------------------------------ Changes: - Added a Global.ini-file-only option to disable the Windows 7 Aero task bar peek functionality. - Added a Global.ini-file-only option to put the close button to the right of the tab bar rather than on the active tab. Bug fixes: - If a session was connected to a remote server that was the DNS server and the remote server went down, SecureCRT could crash. - Fixed a GDI resource leak. - Ymodem transfers could fail because SecureCRT did not send and honor the file length in the file header packet. - If a key was mapped to send a string and that key was pressed in the chat window, the first character of the string was not sent. - If SecureCRT was not active and the most recently used tab was clicked, SecureCRT did not become active. - Pressing CTRL+TAB with multiple tabs open did not always switch to the most recently used tab. - If the display theme was set to Black, Aqua, or Silver, after coming out of hibernation, the display theme was changed to Blue. - If the tab status indicators used the "Background colors" option, the active tab was closed, and it had a different status than the newly active tab, then the newly active tab did not have the correct background color behind the close tab button. Changes in SecureCRT 6.5 (Beta 3) -- October 29, 2009 ----------------------------------------------------- Changes: - Restored previous behavior of allowing the password to be saved regardless of the "Auto Save Options" setting. Bug fixes: - It was possible for SecureCRT to crash when attempting to select text near the end of a line. - SecureCRT could crash when configuring a private key for a session. - SecureCRT could crash when a tab was closed if the Session Options dialog had been opened after connecting to a session. - If the INI-file only option "Force Close On Exit" was set and an SSH2 session was connected and cloned, if one of the tabs was closed, SecureCRT crashed on exit. - Displaying certain Unicode sequences could cause SecureCRT to hang. - Scrolling Unicode data was much slower than scrolling non-Unicode data. - The underscore character was included in the list of default delimiters. - If the user had full write access to the root drive and attempted to log to a file in the root drive, an "Access Denied" error was reported. - Send ASCII ignored the end-of-line characters if the text file contained end-of-line characters other than CRLF. - Clicking the red "X" in the Windows 7 taskbar peek for SecureCRT did not close SecureCRT. - On Windows 7, if ANSI color was on and a tab subsequent to the first tab was connected, the terminal area in the new tab flickered, briefly showing lines of different colors. - When the JAWS screen reading software was used in cursor mode, if output that contained blank lines was displayed in SecureCRT, using the arrow keys to move the mouse cursor over the blank lines caused the cursor to jump over several blank lines instead of moving one line at a time. - After upgrading to 6.5, if a custom menu and toolbar XML file from version 6.2 or earlier existed, the ALT+B accelerator to connect in a tab no longer worked. - If the global option "Show confirm disconnect dialog" was off and a session was connected and cloned, then the cloned session was closed using the close button on the tab, window decorations such as menus and toolbar buttons did not receive focus when mousing over them. - Output that did not wrap when printed under Windows XP wrapped when printed under Windows 7 and Vista. - Bold characters were not printed as bold characters. - SSH2: Attempting to use a private key without a corresponding public key caused SecureCRT 6.5 beta 2 to crash. - SFTP: SecureCRT could crash when downloading a directory that contained thousands of files. Changes in SecureCRT 6.5 (Beta 2) -- October 15, 2009 ----------------------------------------------------- New features: - The chat window can be resized by dragging the splitter bar. Changes: - SSH2: When an RSA key is used for authentication, only the private key is required, which makes it easier to use Amazon EC2 keys. - If a custom menu (.mnu) file specifies the "Office 2007" theme, which is not available in SecureCRT 6.5, the "Office 2003" theme is put in the menu instead. Bug fixes: - If the Activator was exited while the Global Options dialog was open, SecureCRT crashed. - SecureCRT crashed if a session that specified a non-existent keymap was cloned or opened a second time. - If the /NOMENU option was specified on the command line, a "Failed to create empty document" error was reported. - For Ymodem transfers, 128-byte packets were sent when Ymodem-1k option was specified. - The Delete, Home, End, PageUp, and PageDown keys did not work in the chat window. - If the paste on middle button option was set and a middle button
