There are many new changes in version 7.0
■ The format for the notepad has changed. If you are using an older version
of Zygote you should get rid of the ZYGOTE.PAD file. Also now, the
program will place all the notepad files (*.PAD) in a directory off of
the Zygote directory. The directory will be named NOTEPAD\. The program
will automatically create it if you don't already have it. In the last
version, Zygote saved all the notepad entries in one file. In this version,
each entry is contained in its own file. This should make it more flexible.
It will, of course, be faster when reading from and writing to it.
■ The format for the dialing directory file (*.DIR) has also changed. There
is a converter for upgrading. If you were using v6.0 then you can use
DIRCONV.EXE to convert your old .DIR file to the new .DIR format. Zygote
will read/write all .DIR files in a directory name PHONE\. The program
will create it if you don't already have it. After you use the converter
remember to place the newly converted file in the PHONE\ directory.
■ If you registered v6.0 and used the host mode, you also need to get rid
of the old user file and message file. Zygote has new formats for these
two files also. Also now all host mode files will be placed in HOST\.
The program will create this directory too if you don't already have it.
■ The Z_AREA?.DAT files also need to be placed in their own directory. The
directory name for these files is AREADATA\. Again, the program will
create the directory if you don't already have it. If you don't plan
to use these files (because they do take up a lot of space), then
just simply delete them. Zygote will still work either way.
■ There are many more changes, but these are probably the most important
of the batch. I hope the changes I made are for the better. If not, hey
write to me and tell me.
■ Make sure you read the document file (ZYGOTE.DOC). It is very important.
There are many new things in there you should know about.
■ Type ZYGOTE to load the program. The program will decide if you need to
enter anything. Have fun.
