Allfix 6.1.6-df38108 (Development Build)

This development build includes critical bug fixes reported by users testing the previous 6.1.6-a7f86c7 build on OS/2.

Bug Fixes

Fixed BSY semaphore file not being deleted on exit (affects OS/2 and all
FPC-compiled platforms). The cleanup code was guarded by a conditional that
is not defined on OS/2 FPC builds, so the file-based semaphore was never
removed.

Fixed free space check overflow causing files to be incorrectly tossed to
the bad directory despite sufficient disk space. The DiskAvail function
returned a 32-bit LongInt (max ~2 GB), so drives with more than 2 GB free
would overflow and report insufficient space. Changed to 64-bit on all FPC
platforms.

Improved logging when file database update fails - log messages now include
the echo name and BBS file area path to help identify which areas are not
configured on the BBS.

Improvements

Added TSetupFile class for cleaner setup data file handling, replacing raw
I/O in startup and asutil.
Improved screen rendering performance in ASETUP.
Updated documentation, help files, copyright, and contact information.


GENERAL Note:

These are the newer FreePascal Versions - Still in Development state.

Windows versions are NEW and still being tested.

If you find any issues, please submit a bug report so that we may get the issue
resolved, and a new version pushed out.

Diagnostic Tool
March 4, 2026

We built a diagnostic tool to help assist with the issues that may be
happening with files. AFDIAG will make a afdiag folder, copy your data files into here, scrub all passwords, keys, email addresses, then create a zip
file.

64Bit Windows Issues
March 3, 2026

It has come to our attention that there is a issue with the 64 bit version
of the program. The issue is with the program is that there is a pointer in
the setup.fix file.
