* NEW FEATURES OF E88 VERSION 2.01 *
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
VERSION 2.01:
Version 2.01 differs from version 2.00 because the method used
to save the setup file has been changed. The file E88SETUP.DEF
is now saved in the CURRENT directory instead of the root
directory. This will allow the user to create different default
files depending on what is needed for that application.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
PATHNAMES:
E88 now supports all D.O.S. 2.00 and above file specifications.
SPEEDUP:
Floppy disk access speed has been increased 57%
DIRECTORY:
The directory now reflects the actual file size of files created
with E88. This allows compatibility with the newer ASCII file
standards. E88 is now compatible with Procomm and Microsoft
Macro Assembler 4.00. (there was a bug when using INCLUDE with
MASM). No more repeated extra lines with Procomm "V" command.
DIRECT STARTUP:
The file specification may now be entered on D.O.S. command line.
/B OPTION:
The /B option when specified on the command line will stop screen
"blinking" on scrolls when used with the newer display adapters.
DEFAULT EXTENSIONS:
The default filename extension is now user programmable from
the setup window.
SPECIAL CHARACTERS:
There are now 10 user programmable keys which will provide
special characters for the user.
PRINTOUT WITHOUT ARROWS:
The printout can now be done with or without the arrows. This
makes printing DOC files and other text files look nicer.
ATTRIBUTE TOGGLE:
The line attribute may now be "toggled", turning the arrow on and
off. This makes it easy to join and separate lines.
CIRCULAR LINE BUFFERING:
E88 now includes a 32 line circular line buffer which allows
instant recovery of up to 32 deleted lines as well as the
ability to move and copy lines from anywhere, to anywhere in the
file.
PAGERS IMPROVED: .... NOW ALLOW INSTANT END OF FILE ON STARTUP ....
The pagers now start out defining equal divisions in the file.
The file is divided into six parts with F3 pointing at the start
and F8 pointing at the end of file. All the other pagers equally
split the file, allowing instant access to any area. Of course
they can still be set using the shift key after the edit is
started.
STILL FITS IN 15 Kb OF MEMORY
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
These features and enhancements are explained fully in the updated DOC
file that accompanies E88. Most of these features and fixes were requested
by users. I wish to thank all users who sent in their request and hope that
E88 version 2.00 will better suit your needs. I need user feedback and
contributions ($10) in order to continue to improve E88 so if you find a
bug or want a new or improved feature send me a letter.
