PasWiz 2.0, 11/05/94:
This is the final version of PasWiz. Registration will still
be possible for a while yet, though. See the ORDER.FRM file
for details.
The archive routines have been updated to handle PKZIP 2.0
self-extracting .EXE archives. A pair of bugs which prevented
the archive routines from working with larger archives have
been fixed-- thanks to Jason Sandlin for reporting the error.
The MatchFile routine was case-sensitive. It isn't any more.
PasWiz 1.5, 08/04/93:
Removed BACHINV.PAS and BACHINV.EXE, since the ENTERTNR files
already demonstrate the same routines adequately.
Added archive directory routines. These allow you to get the
directory listing of archives in .ARC, .ARJ, .LZH, .PAK,
.ZIP, .ZOO, and self-extracting .EXE formats. Added a demo
for these routines-- see ARCVIEW.PAS and ARCVIEW.EXE.
PasWiz 1.4, 05/26/93:
Renamed ADD4DOS.BAT to ADDFILE.BAT.
Tweaked the demos to release unneeded memory in case of
multitasking.
Fixed a bug in the Windows detection routine.
Added an assortment of new trig functions to the extended
math unit.
Added an integer conversion routine to the string unit. This
helped optimize the music unit as well.
Converted most of the mouse unit to assembly language.
Added joystick support.
PasWiz 1.3, 11/14/92:
Registration can now be done through CompuServe. See the
ORDER.FRM file for details.
Full Pascal source code is now included, allowing you to try
PasWiz with whichever compiler you may have. The assembly
language sources remain available only to registered owners.
A short description file, DESC.SDI, has been added for BBSes
which support it. This complements the longer FILE_ID.DIZ.
The order form has been renamed from REGISTER.TXT to
ORDER.FRM, since that seems to be a more common convention.
The mouse unit has been partially converted to assembly code.
The equipment unit can now differentiate 80486s from 80386s.
The expression evaluator now supports the constant PI and a
variety of functions:
ABS, ACOS, ASIN, ATAN, COS, FRAC, INT, LOG, SIN, SQRT, TAN
PasWiz 1.2, 07/01/92:
The equipment unit now lets you find out how many serial and
parallel ports are installed. The EQUIPMT demo has been
updated accordingly.
Ceiling and floor functions have been added to the extended
math unit. These functions are most often used in rounding.
The documentation has been reformatted to 64 columns by 59
rows, allowing it to be printed on a greater variety of
printers.
If you're using the excellent 4DOS command shell, try the new
ADD4DOS.BAT file. It will add directory descriptions to the
PasWiz files-- no more guessing about file names!
Registration can now be done through Public (software)
Library, which allows use of credit cards. See REGISTER.TXT
for details.
PasWiz 1.1, 12/05/91:
I've added an EQUIPMENT unit, which provides information
about the various hardware and software installed. This
includes memory (extended, XMS, and expanded), floppy drive
types, keyboard type, display adapter and monitor type, CPU,
DOS version, 4DOS version and Windows version (if
applicable), and so forth. The EQUIPMT.EXE demo will give you
a quick look.
Comprehensive KEYBOARD control has been added. Get the states
of any alt, control, or shift key; get or set CapsLock,
Insert, NumLock, ScrollLock; access 101-key "enhanced"
keyboards; put a string into the keyboard buffer; speed up
the keyboard; take control of the PrintScreen key; more.
PasWiz 1.0, 10/06/91:
This is the initial release of The Pascal Wizard's Library,
featuring BCD math, extensions to Pascal's native math, an
expression evaluator, a music language, mouse support, and
powerful string support (including compression, encryption,
fuzzy comparisons, et al).
