Bugs
----
o  replying via email to an article with
   From: =?us-ascii?q?<a@example.com>,?= <b@example.org>
   will result in
   To: <a@example.com>, <b@example.org>
   [20141230 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  get_respcode() doesn't handle the 401 response code. as we have to
   evaluate the response text as well we have to fix every
   nntp_command(..., NULL, 0) call.
   [20100429 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  col_response is a misnomer as the counter doesn't count responses
   anymore (except on the very first article). The man-page is outdated too.
   [20080826 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  'T'ag all parts of multipart message doesn't work (it never did)
   with thread_arts 4 (multipart) or 5 (percentage)
   [20080606 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  cLINES < MIN_LINES_ON_TERMINAL || cCOLS < MIN_COLUMNS_ON_TERMINAL
   isn't checked on startup
   [20071210 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  a wrong username/password in ~/.newsauth can lead to an endless AUTH-loop
   when using -A and issuing a wrong username/password in the prompt
   [20080926 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  unexpected multiline responses confuse tin, e.g.:
   | 240 Article posted =?ISO-8859-1?Q?=3C=3D=3Fiso=2D8859=2D1=3Fq=3F=3F=3D87r7k8na?=
   |   =?ISO-8859-1?Q?vt=2Efsf=40urs=2Did=2Etest=2Eka=2Enu=3E?=
   (the servers response should be a single line (INN 2.2))
   [20050207 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  better integrate saving of MIME/non-MIME articles when not using libuu.
   MIME sections are saved by the 's'ave operations, uuencoded sections
   are saved as part of the postprocess backend
   [mostly done]
   [Jason Faultless <jason@altarstone.com>]

o  batch mode has several bugs
   - -Z and giving a cmd-line group the cmd-line group is not displayed in
     the statistics nor taken into account for the 'any unread news' status.
   - -vc could be more verbose (like -vcZ is)
   - -o currently is not a 'batch_mode' option
   [Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  add version number to other config-files (e.g. tin.defaults)
   and do the same checks as for TINRC_VERSION/tinrc. for the
   filter and attributes file store the charset the file is written in
   (e.g. ISO-8859-x vs. unicode) and for the filter file the filter method
   used (wildmat or regexp (or TRE))
   [Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  overview file caching code is over-complex
   - cache the original overview info instead of rebuilding it from
     the processed (decoded etc.) data, no matter if it's broken (e.g.
     contains raw 8 bit data) as we have to deal with that anyway. if there
     are no original overviews, cache the original data from the postings
     headers (after unfolding and tab removal).
   - Add docs to explain how to create system-wide overviews

o  iso2asc conversion is missing for 'internal' strings (e.g. 'M'enu)
   [20020319 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  comments in attributes get lost (we need to do something like we do for
   the filter file)
   [20080425 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  if tin is falling back to HEAD/NEXT ([X]OVER not working) it doesn't honor
   tinrc.getart_limit
   [20090112 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  the keys GroupToggleSubjDisplay and ThreadToggleSubjDisplay are misnamed,
   as they toggle the display of the sender address, not the subject.
   [20130839 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

Pager Problems
--------------

Posting Problems
----------------
o  8bit chars in some headers are RFC-2047-encoded where this is not allowed
   according to usefor (Newsgrous, Distribution, ...) - do_rfc15211522_encode()
   simply encodes all headers no matter if any of them must not be encoded
   (see parse_rfc822_headers()).
   [20090112 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  the mime encoder may create two adjacent encoed words in the same line
   e.g.       Subject: =?UTF-8?B?4oKs4oKs4oKs?= =?UTF-8?B?IOKCrOKCrOKCrA==?=
   instead of Subject: =?UTF-8?B?4oKs4oKs4oKsIOKCrOKCrOKCrA==?=
   [20140513 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  remove Message-IDs with 8bit chars in them when they occur in
   Message-ID or References header
   [done for References in replies/followups, Urs]

o  keep RFC 6532 in mind as parts of it will sooner or later make it into
   NNTP (sic!).
   [20120220 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  repost ('x') ignores ~/.tin/attributes - bug or feature?!
   [IMHO a bug as settings like mailing_list are essential, Urs]

o  forged cancelling via Supersedes:/Also-Control:/Control:-header is possible
   if it is supplied by hand (inews_prog=--internal)

o  when last articles in a newsgroup were cancelled, it shows that there are
   new articles in that group (except when using -n cmd-line flag)

o  mailers other than sendmail (f.e. elm) and use_mailreader_i=OFF may lead
   to 'duplicated'-headers and multiple signatures

New features
------------
o  add per scope getart_limit via attributes
   [20131114 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  add support for %A (Address), %C (Firstname), %N (Fullname) to
   group_format and thread_format
   (what about "conflicting" settings for show_author and %[ACIN]?)
   [20130925 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  add a key to "drop" pending data from the server (either by
   disconnet/reconnect (fast but reconnect may fail due to rate limit or ...)
   or via calling drain_buffer() (might be slow if there is much pending
   data)) so one doesn't have to quit and restart tin if the client/server
   communication get's desynced (i.e by reading an article which has a non
   dotstuffed lone . in it or the like)
   [20130615 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  x_body currently doesn't allow cmd. execution via ! like x_headers
   [20110912 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  add nntp_default_server to tin.defaults to override compile time setting.
   if given strings starts with / or ~ the value is taken from the referenced
   file, if it starts with $ it is read from the referenced variable.
   [20101118 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  the old space_goto_next_article=ON && space_goto_next_unread=OFF is not
   possible with the new goto_next_unread rc-var, we need something like
   an additional goto_next_read rc-var
   [20101101 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  add DEFAULT_SIGDASHES_REGEX and related 'M'enu-entry for signature
   detection in cook.c
   [20080925 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  give an error message if append_mail() fails (grep TODO post.c)
   [20080423 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  allow remapping of the 'z' abort-key (lynx style) in wait_for_input().

o  add user defined screen layout at different levels (e.g. posting
   history screen)
   (done for selection, group and thread level)
   - what about groupname_max_length, still needed?
   [20041025 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  add TLS (RFC 4642), NNTPS support
   (<http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/>, <http://www.openssl.org/>
    might be useful (but unfortunately we use fputs()/fgets() instead of
    read()/write() - BIO_*() may be useful);
    "stunnel -c -d 1119 -r news.example.org:563; tin -g localhost -p 1119"
    can be used for NNTPS)
   [20031210 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  add more AUTHINFO SASL (RFC 4643, RFC 5802) support (DIGEST-MD5,
   EXTERNAL, ...) and a fallback if no libgsasl is found (e.g cyrus-sasl
   or a handrolled version for at least PLAIN)
   [20080316 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  add XZVER (and XZHDR) support (zlib compressed yyencoded overview data)
   <http://helpdesk.astraweb.com/index.php?_m=news&_a=viewnews&newsid=9>

o  make 'GNKSA'-parser RFC5322/USEFOR compliant and fix bugs
   (e.g. "<~$!~( )@( )example.com>" causes "illegal character in RHS", but
   the address is valid)

o  the TLD checking in the 'GNKSA'-parser needs some rework, keeping the
   list of valid TLDs up to date is more or less impossible with the ~1400
   pending new TLDs
   [20131024 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  add In-Reply-To threading for mailgroups
   [20030518 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  make auto'S'ave also work for inrange groups
   (unfortunately 'S' at select level is used for something else)
   [20030508 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  turn ask_for_metamail into $MM_NOASK support (see metamail(1))
   [20030314 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  fetch overview data in chunks (e.g. 100 arts/chunk) to allow
   faster read interruption.
   [20020326 Dirk Nimmich <nimmich@muenster.de>]

o  add bold-italic, bold-underline, italic-underline, bold-italic-underline
   word highlightings.
   [20020721 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  allow bold, underline, italic, ... as colour substitution for
   monochrome terminals (map green=underline, italic=yellow)
   (see also
   <nntp://news.tin.org/20020416202232.A4575@bloatware.reston01.va.comcast.net>)
   [20030218 Serge Matveev <sm@cl.spb.ru>]

o  hierarchical 'M'enu, e.g. put all art_marked_*into a 'submenu',
   restructure/sort 'M'enu items, some disply-options (render BiDi) are
   currently under expert options, some options in display options are
   navigation options (catchup thread, use mouse, ...)
   [20020322 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  add a postponed 'browser' (store postponed arts in MH or maildir
   format to make things easier?)
   [20020305 Dirk Nimmich <nimmich@muenster.de>]

o  add postpone option for mail-actions;
   reusing p'o'stponed articles in mailing_list groups doesn't work
   (possible fix: store Newsgroups (and other info) via msg_add_header()
    (to overwrite any old values) in X-Tin-Postponed:-header and remove it
    before posting.)
   [20010623 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  should the postponed 'file' (and posted messages 'file') be in
   mailbox_format (even if that's a one file/message format, thus
   the 'file' actually needs to be a directory?).

o  add maildir/maildir++ support (besides MBOX{O,RD} and MMDF},
   MH (not only reading but also writing), mailstore, BABYL, Kendra (MMDF
   like with 20*CTRL-A as sep.), MBX and MIX (indexed MBOX from UW-IMAP)
   and add man-pages for the various formats.
   (see <http://www.ifi.uio.no/~larsi/notes/BABYL> for BABYL,
    <http://www.qmail.org/man/man5/maildir.html> for maildir,
    <http://www.qmail.org/man/man5/mbox.html> for MBOXCL and MBOXCL2,
    <http://www.washington.edu/imap/listarch/2000/msg00363.html> for MBX,
    <http://www.washington.edu/imap/documentation/mixfmt.txt.html for MIX)
   [20020215 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  add $LOCKEXT support
   [20030611 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  add xxencode (<http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/tools/xxcode/xxdecode.c>),
   base224 (<http://b-news.sf.net/>), xBin <http://www.xbin.org/> and
   yenc (hide/decode-)support (see <http://nerv.cx/liyang/software/yydecode/>
   for readable code, ignore the crap on <http://www.yenc.org/>). also
   check <http://www.exit109.com/~jeremy/news/binaries/> which might
   replace yenc etc.pp. some day.
   [20020216 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  add "Face:" (incompatible "X-Face:"-replacement) support?
   [20040107 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  turn CA_ERROR_SPACE_IN_NEWSGROUPS, CA_ERROR_NEWLINE_IN_NEWSGROUPS,
   CA_ERROR_SPACE_IN_FOLLOWUP_TO, CA_ERROR_NEWLINE_IN_FOLLOWUP_TO into
   CA_WARNING_s (see draft-ietf-usefor-article-06.txt 5.5) and mark them
   for removal in the future.
   [define FOLLOW_USEFOR_DRAFT to turn the mentioned errors into
    warnings. 20011226 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  check FOLLOW_USEFOR_DRAFT code against RFC 5536
   [20120221 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  support "Suggested Minimal Digest Format"
   <ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/usenet/news.answers/faqs/minimal-digest-format>

o  add new threading method: thread by reference, but split threads on
   subject change
   [Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  rewrite thread-method selection that users can easily combine different
   threading methods (THREAD_SUBJ + THREAD_MULTI || THREAD_REFS +
   THREAD_MULTI || ...) - see also note in art.c
   [20011117 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  add counter to post-processing commands (processing file x of y)
   (Is post-processing really that slow? [Jason Faultless
   <jason@altarstone.com>] no but if you post-process more than a
   handful of files it would be useful [Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>])

o  add key to toggle article and thread sorting preferences on the fly
   (like 'u' for threading)

o  check if servers high mark is lower than the one in users newsrc, if so
   issue a warning and allow the luser to reset the highmark in the newsrc
   to the servers 'l'ow or the servers 'h'igh mark or 'i'gnore it.

o  check if the articles Subject/From in the pager matches (minus
   whitespaces) the one on the overview file (if available) - if not
   issue a warning that the servers overviews seem to be broken. trust
   the headers, not overviews. (see note in rfc2046.c)
   do the same with the article numbers in the (cached) overview
   data (we already do this, but currently this will lead to article "loss").
   if they are higher than the server's high-mark don't trust them (and
   discard the locally cached data).

o  attributes (still) needs some work; See doc/config-anomalies.
   [20030303 Dirk Nimmich <nimmich@muenster.de>]

o  add IPv6 support
   (add protocol independent wrappers which use IPv6 (functions)
    whenever possible).
   there are two small problems with the minimalistic IPv6 support which is
   currently in tin: when getaddrinfo() is used to get the name/ip of the
   newsserver it always uses DNS (gethostbyname()/gethostbyaddr() checked
   /etc/hosts first) and getaddrinfo() seems to have a (huge) delay in some
   cases. use getipnodebyname()/getipnodebyaddr() (if available) instead.
   check for gethostbyaddr_r()/gethostbyname_r() and use them instead
   of gethostbyaddr()/gethostbyname() if available.

o  add cmd-line/tinrc-switch to fetch only headers of unread articles;
   in that case, make 'r' reading the rest of the articles
   [-G is a start]
   allow setting a per group limit via attributes

o  check if server supports 'LIST MODERATORS' and/or 'LIST DISTRIB.PATS' and
   if it does parse the output so it can be shown to the user. (e.g. when
   posting to a moderated group, show the moderators mail-address, but still
   leave the mailing to the server; if the group has limited distribution
   inform the user, ...)

o  if using "-n" commandline switch you can't subscribe to newsgroups not
   present in your newsrc - a simple check against the server
   (e.g. GROUP $newsgroup or if !NNTP try to stat the dir) would help.
   if the server understands "LIST ACTIVE grp" we could also get the group's
   attribute (moderated, etc.) and with "LIST NEWSGROUPS grp" it's
   description.

o  item_by_item_etiquette_warnings [compile-time?]
   (e.g. enable x-posts without f'up warning, disable long-sig warning)

o  don't prefix posted_articles_file with maildir if posted_articles_file
   has an absolute path (after expanding ~).
   [20130627 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  posted_articles_file is not available in attributes
   [20130628 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  unify Fcc and posted_articles_file
   [20031012 Dirk Nimmich <nimmich@muenster.de>]

o  MIME-pgp support according to RFC 2015, RFC 3156 - (should be easy now)
   and/or in the format that used by signcontrol/pgpverify (see also
   tinews.pl)
   As MIME-pgp verification needs the undecoded mime-part with its headers
   storing the raw-offset of each part in the article would be very helpful.

o  pgpverify invocation with a single key instead of '|''a''pgpverify' or a
   buildin pgpverify solution.

o  pgp-{6,7} support

o  add check for GPGME (<http://www.gnupg.org/related_software/gpgme/>) and if
   found use it for pgp actions.

o  add feature Cc:

o  add feature show_new_newsgroups_since

o  add new key which taggs articles based on a prompted regex, could be used
   for GROUP_MARK_THREAD_READ,PAGE_MARK_THREAD_READ,THREAD_MARK_ARTICLE_READ
   and/or something like GROUP_SELECT_THREAD/THREAD_SELECT_ARTICLE which
   works on tagged arts (the later might be useful in conjnction with
   GROUP_MARK_UNSELECTED_ARTICLES_READ)
   [20051110 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  Additions to the thread menu:
     ']'  (GLOBAL_QUICK_FILTER_KILL)
     '['  (GLOBAL_QUICK_FILTER_SELECT)
     'r'  (reply to) /* not 'R' cause it conflicts with mail_bugreport */
     ''   r should be toggle show all/show only unread
     'f'  (post a followup) (maybe also 'F', '^W', ...)
     'N'  (next unread article)
     'P'  (previous unread article)
     'T'  (tag all parts of current multipart-message in order)
     'V'  (View/pipe/save multimedia attachments)
     'X'  (mark all unread articles that have not been selected as read)
     ';'  (mark unread arts as hot if >= 1 art in thread is hot)
     '+'  (mark thread as hot)
     '='  (mark pattern as hot)
     '@'  (toggle selections)
     'Y'  (check for new articles in thread)
     '%'  (toggle rot13 encoding of screen content)
     'x'  (repost)
     'e'  (edit mailgroup article)
     keys to go to previous/next thread

o  Additions to the group menu:
     'V'  (View/pipe/save multimedia attachments)
     'Y'  (check for new articles in group)
     '%'  (toggle rot13 encoding of screen content)

o  Additions to the select menu:
     '%'  (toggle rot13 encoding of screen content)
     key to toggle groupname abbreviation

o  Add to the 'M'enu:
     'R'  (GLOBAL_BUGREPORT)
     '&'  (GLOBAL_TOGGLE_COLOR)
     and maybe a way to change built in path like DEFAULT_MAILER, PATH_PGP, ...

o  Add to the attachment menu ('V'):
     'F'  post followup to current article, not including current attachment
     'R'  reply through mail to author, not including current attachment
          or
     'R'  (GLOBAL_BUGREPORT)
     'f'  post followup to current article, including current (or tagged)
          attachment(s)
     'm'  mail attachment
     'o'  print attachment
     'r'  reply through mail to author, including current attachment
     't'  tag attachments for '|', 'p', 's', 'm' (done for 's')
     '#'  tag range of attachments (n-m)
     'x'  repost current attachment to another group
     '%'  (toggle rot13 encoding of screen content)
     '&'  (GLOBAL_TOGGLE_COLOR)

o  Add a commandline switch (-V) that prints out all values of cpp-symbols
   etc. [partly done, but should be cleaned up]

o  Reorganize tinrc into related sections for easier editing
   e.g., Display, Posting etc.

o  A system-wide tinrc configuration file (to hold some defaults).
   [done: /etc/tin/tinrc] A key code to reset to the system defaults.
   Maybe a second file which could be used to force settings (eg
   inews & mailer) (tin.defaults [--with-defaults-dir] is a start)

o  when From: only contains "First-name Last-name" tin strips the
   Last-name in group/thread/page-level
   [20020319 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  Bounce duplicate Message-ID's when the headers are read. This will
   make the threading code happier too.
   Make read_overview() more forgiving of errors. If the article # is okay,
   then there is no reason to completely hide the article
   [Jason Faultless <jason@altarstone.com>]

o  Merge the selection code with the range code. Having two similar methods
   of picking articles with similar goals is wasteful.
   [Jason Faultless <jason@altarstone.com>]

o  add check for liblzma/libbzip2/zlib (>=1.1.4)/[mini]lzo, lzlib, liblz4,
   liblrzip, ...
   (<http://tukaani.org/xz/>, <http://sources.redhat.com/bzip2/>,
    <http://www.gzip.org/zlib/>, <http://www.oberhumer.com/opensource/lzo/>,
    <http://lzip.nongnu.org/lzlib.html>, <http://code.google.com/p/lz4/>,
    <http://freecode.com/projects/long-range-zip>) and add an option to
   write/read *zipped local overviews.
   the libs might also be used for post-processing articles.

o  rewrite/cleanup all the debugging code, the output in /tmp is messy; the
   on screen output either slows down things dramatically or is unreadable;
   split DEBUG_MISC?
   [Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  replace gettimeofday() with clock_gettime() if available in parsdate.y
   as POSIX.1-2008 marks gettimeofday() as obsolete.
   [20110910 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  Add 'M'enu option to define chars for utf8_graphics.

Posting enhancements
--------------------
o  sort Followup-To:/Newsgroups: after stripping doubled newsgroups and
   before checking if they are identical, if so, strip Followup-To: and
   use unsorted but stripped Newsgroups:-line only
   ulBuildArgv() would be good for this

o  if Newsgroups:-line has groups in it which are not present in the users
   active file ask the user if he wants to strip these groups from the
   newsgroups-line (N/y)
   do the same for Followup-To:

o  check if any valid groups are in the Followup-To:-line and if not inform
   the user and use Newsgroups: instead (at the start of post_response())

o  bring up a warning on a long Newsgroups: (>=5) line and
   force the user to confirm every single group he wants to post (or
   redirect followups to) in. (N/y)

o  bring up a warning when trying to f'up into a binary group
   (use a regexp to detect binary groups e.g.:
    (?:\.binae?r|de\.alt\.dateien\.))
   (Warning, sending a followup to a binary group is undesired, post it
    anyway? N/y)
   [Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  posting to a binary group should warn if no followup is set to another
   group/poster (you have not set a target for a possible discussion on your
   post, would you like to go on anyway? N/y)
   [Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  when posting to a group containing uppercase-letters: bring up a
   warning: "Newsgroup-names should be all lowercase, correct it? (Y/n)"

o  Enhance -n to take newsgroup name as argument and use group_get_art_info()
   to allow posting to groups other than those in newsrc.

o  add config option for (external) viewer to show postings stored in
   keep_posted_articles_file
   [20021003 Michael Gerhards <HM-Gerhards@uni.de>]

Filtering enhancements
----------------------
o  add spamassassin interface when ever adding body filters

o  add used filter-type to filter file or filter rule or use different
   filter files for wildmat/regexp

o  add command: mark all articles older/newer than <date> (or <days>) as
   read (useful when subscribing to a new group with high-traffic...)

o  fix kill/hot mechanism so that it is possible to match articles on
   arbitrary headers

o  don't strip "Re: " out of the subject before applying the filter on it

o  allow any given amount of days in default_filter_days not only
   {1, 2, 4} * 28 days

o  allow expiring filter entrys n-days after the last time they matched

o  add command to generate filter rules for all currently tagged articles

o  allow editing of the strings presented in the kill-Menu for
   "Kill Subject", "Kill From", "Kill Msg-Id" without having to edit
   the full filter-file
   [20120201 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

Pager enhancements
------------------
o  add 'autoview' (spawn external viewer) 'autohide' (don't even show info
   about that part) for different content-types

o  integrate multi-part tagging with regular tagging, eg.
   "This article appears to have multi-parts, try and find them (y/n)?"

o  do RFC 2231 decoding of non us-ascii MIME-parameter values
   (rfc2046.c:parse_params())
   [20110428 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  add Content-Language (RFC 3282) analysis

o  suppress hide_uue=2 checking unless first line in an article or following
   a blank line

o  add missing mailcap (RFC 1524) features (%n, %F, copiousoutput, print, ...)
   [20111205 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

Internal Changes
----------------
o  in ENABLE_NLS case replace PLURAL() macro with proper use of
   ngettext(3) (if found by configure) to support languages with
   more than one plural form.
   [20150113 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  rename disable_gnksa_domain_check to enable_gnksa_domain_check and
   invert logic now the default changed
   [20131119 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  %s/%S in quote_char should replaced by %I in misc.c:copy_body() and
   config.c:rc_update() to be consistent.
   [20131003 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  curses.c:input_pending() and curses.c:get_arrow_key() have
   #ifdef HAVE_SELECT and a code path for the case when we don't have
   select(2), but read.c:wait_for_input() has no code path for the
   !HAVE_SELECT case. we should add a !HAVE_SELECT case there (or at
   least have adjusted messages in txt_reading_article and txt_group)
   [20110506 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  ditch MAX_MSG_HEADERS (post.c)
   [20110212 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  always display (also) the servers error response string to the user,
   currently tin sometimes gives generic messages (e.g. when authentication
   fails), but the servers response may include additional infos (like
   bandwidth exceeded)
   [20101230 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  rewrite mini-help, remove the long strings and generate them dynamicly
   one help text for each key makes translations more easy and uniq and can
   use the available space on the screen much better if not running on 80
   columns.
   [20100326 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  rewrite auth.c
   - turn t_bool authinfo_user, authinfo_sasl, authinfo_state into
     enum authinfo { NONE = 0, USER = 1, SASL = 2 }

o  fix aclocal.m4:CF_FUNC_SYSTEM and/or misc.c:invoke_cmd() that
   --enable-broken-system-fix/IGNORE_SYSTEM_STATUS isn't needed anymore.
   [20090520 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  tinrc.confirm_choice should be written/read as int, not string as users
   who edit the tinrc manually can't know the exact strings required.
   unfortunately rc_update() can't handle type changes (rc_update should
   also get the split version number as arg so we can do specific
   changes).
   [20081112 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  use read()/write() instead of fputs()/fgets() on socket

o  move several (server related) files into the per-server dir
   e.g.:
      ${TIN_INDEX_NEWSDIR-"${TIN_HOMEDIR-"$HOME"}/.tin"}/.news${NNTPSERVER+"-$NNTPSERVER"}/
   should be
      ${TIN_INDEX_NEWSDIR-"${TIN_HOMEDIR-"$HOME"}/.tin"}${NNTPSERVER+"/$NNTPSERVER"}/.news/
   [20050807 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  upgrade configure-script to >= autoconf-2.61
   [20050728 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  remove untranslatable constructs like txt_prefix_*
   [20050413 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  keys which could be renamed/merged:
   - 'l' GroupListThd, PageListThd
   - 'm' GroupMail, PageMail, PostMail, ThreadMail
   - 'D' GroupCancel, PageCancel, ThreadCancel
   - 'N' GroupNextUnreadArt, PageNextUnreadArt, (SelectNextUnreadGrp)
   - 'S' GroupAutoSave, PageAutoSave, ThreadAutoSave
   - 'P' GroupPrevUnreadArt, PagePrevUnreadArt
   - '@' GroupReverseSel, ThreadReverseSel
   - '~' GroupUndoSel, ThreadUndoSel
   [20050408 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  read_overview() calls eat_re() which strips the "Re: " out of the
   subject. the modified subject is used for batch_mode opperatios (-N/-M)
   which might not be what ppl. expect and eat_re() is the only function
   which needs the 'regex' overhead in batch_mode... (see also the note
   about "Re: "strpping at "Filtering enhancements").
   [20050225 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  use new_nntp_command() instead of nntp_command() in the rest of the
   code (where useful; if we do a global change, rename it to
   nntp_command()). see check_extensions() for a sample usage.
   [20050211 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  replace various occurrence of "US-ASCII" by DEFAULT(_MIME)_CHARSET
   and define that to "US-ASCII" (to make 'updates' easier).
   [20040929 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  get rid of CURR_GROUP, use t_group instead
   create a global t_group *CURR_GROUP instead of the current macro
   reduce dependencies on my_group[] & selmenu outside of select.c
   [20030501 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  clean up $AUTOSUBSCRIBE code (the NNTP code path is a mess)
   [20030412 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  check where joinpath() should be used (e.g. grep for TMPDIR in the source)
   [Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  make configure look for strrstr() in libpub & publib.h
   [Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  reorder several structs to avoid padding (see gcc -Wpadded)
   [Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  what type is base[]? (long, see memory.c:init_alloc()~102)
   There is a lot of confusion internally over how it is used
   compare setup_hard_base() with find_base() etc..
   [Jason Faultless <jason@altarstone.com>]

o  check where PRODUCT should be used instead of tin_progname and/or "tin"
   [Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  check where NEWSRC_FILE should be used in lang.c instead of "newsrc"

o  kick Hungarian notation
   [Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  check where iKeyAbort should be used instead of ESC (etc.pp.)
   (AFAICS all fixed except prompt.c and read.c/'z')
   [Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  close potential security holes:
   - change all system()/popen() calls to fork() and exec() calls
   - check where we should use snprintf() instead of sprintf()
   - check where we should use strncat() instead of strcat()
   - check where we should use strncpy() instead of strcpy()
   - check possible races with access()/link()/rename()/stat()/
                               unlink()/chdir()/fopen()/fstat()/open()/
                               opendir()/t_open()/tmpfile()
   - check getenv() results before using it
   - check where my_strncpy() or STRCPY() should be used
     or include OpenBSDs strlcpy(3) (and strlcat(3)) and use it.

    holes]

o  add to autoconf:
   - eradicate platform/compiler ifdefs

o  clean up architecture independent files, rename several defines,
   remove useless doubled defines

o  split tin.h/proto.h for better dependencies in Makefile

o  check where int/long/... should be replaced by size_t, uid_t, mode_t,
   off_t, ...
   [Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  add check for sizeof char, short, int, long, ...
   make sure that the code works even with 'uncommon' values
   (e.g. char = 1 byte with 32 bit)

o  cleanup post.c

o  check code with Splint (LCLint) <http://www.splint.org/>,
   valgrind (<http://valgrind.org/>), cppcheck
   (<http://cppcheck.wiki.sourceforge.net/>), AdLint
   (<http://adlint.sourceforge.net>), clang-analyzer

   (<http://caca.zoy.org/wiki/zzuf>)

o  rewrite the tag code so that arts[].tagged becomes index in arts[]
   of next tagged article. num_of_tagged_arts becomes index of first
   tagged art. Traversing tagged arts becomes much easier & faster.
   [Jason Faultless <jason@altarstone.com>]

o  strip Xref:-header if saving news in batch mode (-S)?
   [Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  what is with NEW_HASH_METHOD in list.c?

o  rewrite code to use INEWS_PATH instead of INEWSDIR
   [20021007 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>

o  remove built in path of external commands (metamail, ispell, ...)
   [for ispell $ISPELL can be used to override systempath and progname]

o  add configure-switch for DISABLE_PIPELINING
   [20090612 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  mask inline PGP SIGNATURE/KEY BLOCK like we do for uu-sections
   [20090722 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  some non fixed width strings could be formatted nicer (warp on last space
   before cCOLS), e.g. txt_warn_downgrade
   [20110325 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

Unicode
-------
o  add UTF-8 (unicode) support (RFC 2279)
   (see <http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/unicode.html>)
   if we ever want to add UTF-7 (RFC 2152) (posting) support (I don't
   think this is needed) we have to encode it ourself (as iconv()
   might encode <, @, > which leads to illegal headers) or split
   headers into "encoding part" and "rest" ...
   [local_charset <-> UTF-8 which needs iconv() is added;
    20010830 urs@tin.org]

o  make select/group/thread/page-level multibyte "safe". they all use
   strlen(), strncpy(), strncat(), snprintf() to build the screen - but
   in a multibyte environment (e.g. mm_local_charset=UTF-8) this is a
   fault. [mostly done for ncursesw]

o  make mm_network_charset an "option_list" to avoid junk input or
   undesired (UTF-1, UTF-7, UTF-16*, UTF-32*, UCS-2, UCS-4, ...) encodings.
   add configure check for the hardcoded charsets (try iconv_open(x,
   us-ascii) on each...) and disable those not available.
   (think about more network charsets (GB2312, GB18030, Shift_JIS,
    ISO-8859-6[-{I,E}], ISO-8859-8[-{I,E}], ISO-8859-11, VISCII, VIQR;
    check whether KOI8-RU is still used/valid))
   [done except configure check 20010907 urs@tin.org]

o  make mm_network_charset an user configurable item list
   ("US-ASCII:ISO-8859-1:ISO-8859-9:ISO-8859-15:UTF-8",
    "US-ASCII:ISO 8859-5:KOI8-R:UTF-8",
    "EUC-CN:ISO-2022-CN:ISO-2022-CN-EXT:Big5:UTF-8", whatever)
   and try all given charsets in order till the one is found which matches
   best (i.e. can display most (all) of the chars in the article).
   [20050805 <urs@tin.org>]

o  add IDNA 2003 (RFC 3490ff.) and IDNA 2008 (RFC 5890ff.) support,
   (<http://www.gnu.org/software/libidn/> IDNA 2003,
    <http://jprs.co.jp/idn/index-e.html> IDNA 2008,

    <http://www.gnu.org/s/libidn/#libidn2> IDNA 2008)
   (added minimalistic IDNA decoding support if a recent libidn is found, urs)
   [20030917 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  add normalization
   (via <http://oss.software.ibm.com/icu/> or
   <http://www.gnu.org/software/libidn/> or
   <http://www.gnu.org/software/libunistring/>)
   (done for search strings only, missing for "threading" by subject etc. pp.)
   [20031209 Michael Bienia <michael@vorlon.ping.de>]

o  check for wcsftime() and if found use it instead of strftime() (at
   least in page.c).
   [20130129 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

Docs/online help
----------------
o  the documentation of PageFollowupQuoteHeaders (^W) and
   PageReplyQuoteHeaders (^E) is wrong as not all headers but just those
   visible via news_headers_to_display (or all if raw mode is on
   (PageToggleHeaders (^H)) are included.
   [20100911 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  the online help of GroupMarkUnselArtRead 'X' is unclear as it doesn't
   say that the article are marked read
   [20090814 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  document the different singnals/actions (e.g. SIGUSR2 writes newsrc)
   [20080209 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  exit staus documentation in the man page isn't correct, we have more
   exit codes than just 0/1 (and 2 in the -Z case).
   [20080320 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  review the danish, swedish, turkish, russian and kinyarwanda translations
   (da.po, sv.po, tr.po, ru.po, rw.po); add/finish man-page translation(s).

o  add installation guide (in html)

o  add cross-compilation hints
   	CC="crosscc" LD="crossld" AR="crossar" RANLIB=":" MAKE="crossmake" \
   	./configure --with-build-cc=gcc --with-build-cpp=cpp \
   	--target=cross-traget-tripple --without-x # usual configure flags

o  better document keymap feature

o  man page always needs work and proof reading
   e.g. 'U', 'V' in pager need better documentation, random organization
   feature isn't documented at all.

o  tin.defaults could use more documentation in man page (tin.5)

o  replace "\\" by "\e" in man pages (portable?)

o  integrate doc/auth.txt into tin.1 man page

Not yet classified
------------------
o  allow "begin-base64"/"====\n" as start/end marker for UUE-blocks besides
   the traditional "begin"/"end\n"?
   [20151204 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  cache_overview_files also affects $TIN_INDEX_MAILDIR and $TIN_INDEX_SAVEDIR
   overviews, is this desired?
   [20151112 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  articles without a Message-ID are skipped as the code currently depends
   on Message-IDs, but they might show up in mailgroups - assign a pseudo
   Message-ID to them?
   [20151111 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  create missing dir(s) in path to newsrc, right now get_newsrcname()
   usually comes up with
   "No permissions to go into /home/$USER/.tin/${NNTPSERVER}"
   if one uses something like
   *  ~/.tin/${NNTPSERVER-localhost}/.newsrc
   in newsrctable
   [20150121 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  make --with-defaults-dir= default to $sysconfdir/tin
   (=/usr/local/etc/tin)?
   [20110809 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  Supersedes (and repost) don't reuse the Reply-To: header of the original
   article
   [20110808 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  what about !us-ascii chars in username/password when using
   AUTHINFO USER/PASS? Currently they are sent as is, RFC 3977 says
   "The character set for all NNTP commands is UTF-8", RFC 4643 doesn't
   mention any special handling.
   [20101104 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  what is or was HIST_HELP_SEARCH good for? And what about cHelp?
   [20101008 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  charset conversion fails when converting articles from multibyte charsets
   with 0 bytes (UCS2, UCS4, UTF-16[[LB]E], UTF-32[[LB]E], ...), currently
   we just skip over such parts instead of handling them properly
   [20100905 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  add "COMPRESS DEFLATE" support once it's official? this would require a
   rewrite of the code which reads data from the network (which should be
   done anyway for TLS) as we must handle null-bytes in the stream.
   <https://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-murchison-nntp-compress-02.txt>
   [20100122 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  the documentation suggests that novrootdir/$TIN_NOVROOTDIR defaults to
   spooldir/$TIN_SPOOLDIR if unset, which is not exactly what happens as
   this default is set at configure/compile time, not at runtime, so
   setting $TIN_SPOOLDIR to something different than the default will not
   automatically adjust $TIN_NOVROOTDIR at runtime. we should either
   fix the documentation or the behaviour.
   [20100103 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  FOLLOW_USEFOR_DRAFT is a minomer as RFC 5536 is released
   [20091225 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  un/subscribe_pattern() is very slow on servers with a huge active file
   [20091223 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  replace wildmat.c with uwildmat.c

   patterns and can handle UTF-8 strings
   [20091223 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

   <http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html>
   [20081010 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  add //IGNORE iconv-option like //TRANSLIT?
   [20080824 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  what about REDIRECT_OUTPUT? shouldn't we better add this to DEFAULT_PRINTER
   so ppl. can override it via the 'M'enu? and shouldn't DEFAULT_PRINTER be
   detected via configure?
   [20080625 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  create debug output in
   ${TIN_HOMEDIR-"$HOME"}/.tin"}${NNTPSERVER+"/$NNTPSERVER"}
   instead of in $TMPDIR (as it may contain username and password,
   access restrictions in $TMPDIR are a bad idea as other users
   need to be able to overwrite the file)
   [20080211 Urs Janssen <urs@tin.org>]

o  -M/-N report is malied to userid, should we use tinrc.mail_address
   instead?

o  tin uses the first sig-isolator as recent one, USEFOR says it should
   use the last. There is no consensus that tin should follow this USEFOR
   requirement.

o  'K' is still a bit inconsistent:
   - in the group and thread menu it marks current item read & jumps to the
     next unread item.
   - in the article pager (page.c) it marks the rest of the current thread
     read and jumps to the next unread article. should we let 'K' behave
     like <TAB> in the pager?

o  rename prompt_followupto (to prompt_extra_headres) and make it an option
   list like {"Followup-To"; "Summary"; "Keywords";
   "Followup-To & Summary"; "Followup-To & Keywords";
   "Summary & Keywords"; "Followup-To, Summary & Keywords"} or make it a
   user-definable text field like news_headers_to_display? or leave this
   entirely to the user - he could tweak attributes accrodingly.

o  commas in real-name might cause problems in mail-replys
   From: Last, First <user@accou.nt> (which is illegal) leads to

o  shows up cross-postings multiple times even if read once before getting
   a resync/reread active/newsrc-file

o  think about group numbering in "only unread" display mode
   (using different numbers in show all/show only unread leads to some
    problems, f.e. group moving)

o  remove tinrc.strip_blanks? IMHO it's not needed anymore

o  what is with conflicting tinrc settings? should we disallow those, or leave
   it to the user to realise that e.g. strip_blanks=ON && inverse_okay=ON

   (see <20021003021508.GA28021@akk10.akk.uni-karlsruhe.de> for details, urs.

o  missing newsrc file and connecting to a server without groups leads to the
   question "Try and save newsrc file again? (Y/n)" but a newsrc file doesn't
   get written. Same may occur on quitting if newsrc file had been removed
   while tin was running. Useful? Should write_newsrc() try to create a newsrc
   file if it is missing instead of just leaving?

o  cache mailbox_name in misc.c/mail_check()?

o  configure checks for fdopen(3) and defines HAVE_FDOPEN if found, but we
   don't have any code guared with that macro nor any fallback code if not
   found.

o  re add innlib support? (the old one was dropped as the lib has retired
   all (which were not that many) features we used and our code didn't
   use the innlibs code where ever it was possible (and useful).
