Address List Manager Release History


Version 4.45  (08/04/92):

Increased the default minimum memory save amount from 32k to 50k, to allow
shelling to DOS in DOS 5.0.  In tight memory situations, this may decrease the
maximum number of records slightly.  If you use the /m32 switch, it will be
exactly as in previous versions.

Bug fix: Corrected a keyboard incompatibility problem which affected the
numeric keys on some keyboards.

Bug fix: The "Keep Changes" prompt is now fully erased after you respond to it.

Corrected an embarrassing bug in the documentation - the author's ZIP code was
wrong!

Added some assorted files to the archive, and switched to a self-extracting
distribution archive format.


Version 4.44  (12/28/91):

Bug fix: Eliminated a strange quirk in version 4.43 that didn't properly
initialize the setup file name and extension in unregistered copies only.
Registered users do not need to upgrade to this version.


Version 4.43  (12/20/91):

Added word-left and word-right keys to the editor.

Added a post-print string, and renamed the setup string to the pre-print
string.

Changed warning and error message displays, and a few other screen displays.

If you choose a disk file as your printer output device, and that file already
exists, the new output will be added onto the existing file.  Previous versions
would overwrite the old output file.

You may stop printing at the pause prompt during multiple envelope printing by
pressing Escape, as in the rest of the program.

A registration program, REGISTER.EXE, is now included in the distribution
archive.  This allows registered users to personalize their copy and remove
the shareware reminders, eliminating the need for a separate registered copy.

Bug fix: On some machines, previous ALM versions could lock up when attempting
to send a pre-print (setup) string to the printer if the printer was
unavailable.  ALM now checks the printer status before attempting to send any
data to it, and returns an immediate error message if there's a problem.

Bug fix: Loading a setup file that doesn't have a pre-print (setup) string
now properly clears the previous string.


Version 4.42  (12/04/90):

Added support for Tab and Shift-Tab keys.


Version 4.41  (11/23/90):

Changed directory access.  Drive and directory are now entered together, file
listing may be displayed for any directory.

Bug fix: Eliminated bug that crashed the program if user attempted to access an
empty drive or a drive with an unformatted disk in it.


Version 4.40:

Not publicly released.


Version 4.3x  (10/21/90):

First publicly released shareware version.
