not present.
Version 1.45 - (05-10-90)
- Removed Hotkey mode from prompts in Load Jukebox and View
Data Files - it would not allow a two digit file number to
be entered

Version 1.50 - (05-21-90)
- Recompiled Makedat using Technojock's Turbo Toolkit
- Rewrote sort routine for faster sorting
- Added feature to enable data files to created in a directory
other than the current directory
- Data files can now be loaded from directories other than the
current directory
- Easy to use file selection windows added
- Various other changes to make the program look and run
better!
- This version even supports a mouse for the menus and file
selection windows!
Version 1.60 - (08-24-90)
- Added Borland style input fields - pressing DEL as the first
key will blank the entry, the left and right arrow keys
position the cursor for editing the default, and any other
key blanks the entry and places that key in the first
position awaiting the rest of your typing.
- The file selection windows now show ALL .DAT files, not just
the JB*.DAT files.
- You can now control the name of the data file(s) created. The
default is 'JB'.
- Menu options 1 and 2 have been switched. Option 1 is now
'Run Jukebox (Play Songs)' and option 2 is 'Create Jukebox
Data Files'. This will prevent any potential problems in
case someone acciedntly leaves their finger on the enter
key when running the program!
- The size of the buffer created with the SOUND.COM sound
driver is now adjustable. The default buffer size is 'b3000'.
If you would like a different sized buffer, enter the buffer
size as a command line parameter when running MakeDat. This
feature USES THE SAME PARAMETERS AS SOUND.COM! For example,
if you would like the buffer to be 'b4000', you would type
'MAKEDAT B4000'.
- If the default data file path is changed, MakeDat will
remember the change, and use the new path as the default
from then on.
