- Well, 1.4 is now 2.0, and it's almost here. So this is probably going to
- be the last revision of Browser. I'm now using Workbench 2.0 on a daily
- basis, and I find I'm not using Browser that much. It remains faster than
- workbench and cleaner for quick jobs, but not enough for me to spend much
- time on it. However, lots of people remain in a 1.3 environment, and with
- the new release of the Aztec C compiler (5.0d) I've been able to clear up
- several outstanding bugs in Browser. Thus, the new release.
-
- What Browser does allow you to do, easily and conveniently, is to
- move, copy, rename, and delete files and directories. It will also let you
- execute either Workbench or CLI programs, either directly by double-
- clicking them or by selecting them from a menu. By combining these you can
- set up a complete operating environment that will, to a large extent,
- replace both Workbench and the CLI.
