What's New in QwkSlave Version 1.06
──> Maintenance Release / Problem Fix.
A problem has been fixed where QwkSlave would not also display all
of the available message conferences in the import pick list.
(Conference numbers that contained an embedded 0 in the index file
conference name triggered the problem. See QWKSLAVE.REV for more
information.)
Additional Note to QwkSlave users: When QwkSlave displays
available conferences in the import pick list, it only displays
conferences that actually have messages in them. If a conference
is empty, it is not displayed in the import pick list.)
What's New in QwkSlave Version 1.05
──> Enhanced Searching Capability!
The searching capability of QwkSlave has been enhanced.
Previously, when a user selected the "Search Entire Record" option
and specified the search string, it would be possible for QwkSlave
to "miss" an occurrence of the search string if it was wrapped
between lines due to a line break. This potential problem has
been addressed, since QwkSlave now takes into account all possible
combinations of line breaks in a user-specified string.
──> Minor fix on the import pick list screen.
A problem existed on the Import pick list when more than 10
conferences were listed. If the highlight bar was located on the
last item, clicking on the down arrow would not cause the pick
list to move to the next item. It would "stick", thus giving the
impression that only 10 conferences were listed. (These remaining
conferences could be accessed by pressing the down arrow or PgDn
keys, but they did not appear if the user simply clicked on the
down arrow of the scroll bar.)
What's New in QwkSlave Version 1.04
──> New Option To Change Default Date Format.
QwkSlave Version 1.04 adds the ability for users to change the
date format used when viewing database messages. Available
formats are mm-dd-yy (01-31-95), dd-mm-yy (31-01-95), and
dd-nnn-yy (31-Jan-95). (This feature will be appreciated by our
foreign users.) This setting can be changed from the Settings,
Defaults menu.
──> Minor fixes / enhancements.
Two minor problems were addressed in this version of QwkSlave.
First, an error message stating "Line Too Long..." was noted when
reading messages with text lines longer than 80 characters.
The maximum line length has been increased to 128 characters.
Also, the default import mask (*.QWK) has been changed to (*.QW?).
Users should also notice a significant change in the appearance of
QwkSlave's status screens.
What's New in QwkSlave Version 1.03
──> New Option To Tag Multiple Records For Deletion.
Page 1
QwkSlave Version 1.03 adds an enhanced browser, allowing users to
tag multiple records for deletion. The Standard browser allows
users to see all records in a table format and pick one for
viewing, while the new, Enhanced browser, allows users to select
multiple records and optionally delete them.
──> Minor problem fixes.
This version of QwkSlave also fixes a few minor problems. The
most obvious problem fixed was one where the Limit Search option
(selected from the Search Entire Message screen) was not
functioning properly. An error message was being issued, stating
that the search string could not be found, when it was obvious
that the search had not even been attempted. For a complete list
of changes, please read the file QWKSLAVE.REV.
What's New in QwkSlave Version 1.02
──> Extended 25, 28, 43, or 50 line text modes!
QwkSlave Version 1.02 contains the ability to use extended text
modes on VGA monitors. This allows users to view more of the text
of each message without needing to scroll the message window.
What's New in QwkSlave Version 1.01
──> Feature Enhancements!
Version 1.01 of QwkSlave contains several enhancements, such as
the ability to import only messages To and/or From specific users.
A default startup file can now be specified to instruct QwkSlave
which database file should be opened each time QwkSlave is
executed. (The command line can be used to load a different file,
instead of the default startup file.)
──> Minor Problem Fixes.
Version 1.01 also contains a few problem fixes. A problem has
been fixed when attempting to import MESSAGE.DAT files larger than
4 megabytes in size. (Users would have seen a RunTime error #100
when scanning the MESSAGES.DAT file, as a result of this problem.)
Also, an incompatibility problem with QWK packets from some
(older-style) doors has been fixed. (The conference numbers did
not match, which would cause 0 records to be imported. Some users
might have seen this as a RunTime error #200.)
What's New in QwkSlave Version 1.00
──> Initial Release of QwkSlave!
STSI proudly announces the release of QwkSlave into the shareware
market! QwkSlave imports QWK mail packets, storing each message
as a database record. Add, edit, delete, and print messages.
Search the entire database for key words or phrases. Sort the
database on any one of ten different fields. Cross referencing
makes finding an original message and its response as easy as a
mouse-click! Make those messages work for you! QwkSlave is ideal
as a technical support reference tool. Network support is
included. Easy push-button interface with mouse support. (286 or
higher)
