Hi all,

A new version of the Infrared Remote Manager (from now on named InfraX
Remote Manager because of the added X10 support) is available at the well
know location:
http://www.autom8it.com/dante or
http://www.geocities.com/tdanro

You can now use the simple web interface to send any infrared or X10
commands from an ordinary web browser.
The interface is a small CGI script (64K) which can be integrated in your
own web page. Use basic authentication over HTTPS for increased security.


What's new in this version (1.4.20)?
     - changing the name to Dante's InfraX Remote Manager because of the
added X10 support;
    - adding X10 support to send commands, including DIM/BRI by percentage
(0-100%) and including from the web interface;
    - address X10 devices using friendly names, not device address;
    - support for multiple serial interfaces on the same COM port (Infrared
send/receive + CM11/CM12(X10) + FirM)
    - Protocol Menus changed to Device Menus;
    - unicity of the command name checked now only for the current protocol;
    - check the correlation between REPEAT and GREPEAT when a new device is
build;
    - configuration file import/export using friendly device description;
    - the tooltip for the devices list contains now the device description
>from     - no more Template generic device in the config file;
    - device name can now be edited;
    - new device can now be created only from Recorded virtual device;
    - REPEAT and GREPEAT parameters automatically detected from recorded
command;
    - plen0 and plen1 are now textboxes, not labels, in order to be able to
browse through data;
    - graph color depends on operation mode: red(record), blue(send), cyan
(manual resample);
    - no more EMPTY as saved command when nothing saved yet;
    - no more FIRM parameter in the configuration file, now it is considered
as a different Rec interface;
    - Univex IR Wall Light Dimmer control support (ON/OFF/DIM/BRI);
    - automatically detect DCDStd/IRMouse/IrMan/FirM interface at startup
and/or when requested.

The IRMan support is for the moment limited to learn commands. They cannot
be sent after that using
a send interface because the code received from the IRMan interface does not
contain any information
regarding the number of bits of the recorded command. I work on it and the
full compatibility will be available in the next version.
For the moment the learned commands from IRMan will be possible to be used
in the plug-in version to define infrared input events.

As usual, I kindly ask you to send me any comments you may have regarding
this application.

The InfraX plug-in version 1.4.x for AutoM8it will be available in a couple
of days, including all the new features.

Best regards and... enjoy it!

Dan
P.S. For detailed information look into the online help, available on the
site.
