What's New With FileBUDDY
=========================
Version v3.15
-------------
>> Added virtual memory support when dealing with images. This
feature allows you to view and manipulate an image of any size
without limiting you to your system's RAM. For FileBUDDY to
take advantage of it in Windows, please use the new FBUDDY.PIF
file.
>> Added the ability to load a file via prompt using the "?" key.
When in this mode the same key can be used to cycle through the
last ten files loaded. (You must be in the file directory.)
>> Added the ability to change to a new path via prompt using the
BACKSPACE key. (You must be in the file directory.)
>> Added the ability to restore PKZIP and ARJ archives containing
directories.
Version 3.14
------------
>> Added the ability to force a particular video mode when viewing
images. (See 'ImageDisplay' parameter in section "Customizing
FileBUDDY" of the User's Guide for more information.)
Version 3.13
------------
>> During a past revision of FileBUDDY, a bug was introduced that
generated an error when creating a PKZIP self-extracting file.
This has been corrected.

The "lost clusters" resulted when viewing an image file (due
to a temporary file not being closed).

network (see "Questions And Answers" section in User's Guide).

Windows' virtual memory capability.

Version 3.03

parts of FileBUDDY v3.02. The program stack was not set properly
due to a conflict between the linker and a replacement linking
library used to create FileBUDDY.
Version 3.02

conventional memory when running external programs. For more
information on these parameters, please refer to "Customizing
