MSORT and SSORT
Changes since version 1.0
1.12 December 26, 1994 MDK
Command Line: The output file is not cleared until the program is ready
to begin output. This helps avoid accidental removal of
the input file.
1.11 December 20, 1994 MDK
Bug fixed: One of the speed improvements had a bug for large files.
Documentation: The file_id.diz was too wide for some BBS.
1.1 December 11, 1994 MDK
Bug fixed: MSORT would refuse to sort files under 512 bytes.
Appearance: Improved consistency of the spinner (user feedback of
work in progress).
Speed: a) Improved handling of files with many repeated lines,
when the "Unique: option (-u) is set. The duplicate
lines are discarded as soon as possible.
b) Minor fix to the algorithm for finding the end of
blocks to sort.
Documentation: a) Notice added that "Ignore short words" option (-t)
substantially slows sorting.
b) Clarified the FILE_ID.DIZ and added notice that the
programs are "Well behaved" for multitasking.
c) Added discussion of speeding up processing to
MSORT.DOC.
