TWASSIST version 1.10 was released on February 6th, 1993. It is a minor
revision with bug fixes, a few enhancements, and lots of internal changes.
The notable changes are:
* All known bugs fixed, including the very recently discovered one where
the month of Feb in the View Game Status date was not recognized. All
bugs on the letter registered users received and a few others I
discovered have been fixed.
* New macros for Procomm Plus, Qmodem, and Telix. Jason Jiggins submitted
a new macro for Procomm Plus. Thank you Jason. I liked some of his
ideas and did a new Qmodem macro. Then Dan Roseen got inspired and
decided to revamp the Telix macro. Thank you Dan. Refer to the macro
doc for information on the new macros.
* In the menu header changed "<Unregistered>" to "Free Version". This
better fits the policy of no trial period. A few people were feeling
guilty about not registering. This should take care of that. :)
* Added a new feature to the Modify menu called "Strip database for (O)ther
trader". This allows you to create a special copy of the database that
does not have all information (like fighters, mines,etc). You can send
this database to a partner not in your corporation without giving away
all your personal information.
* An inspiration on a new algorithm to gather the dead end information was
a smashing success. It is MUCH faster than the old one. Don't blink or
you might miss it.
* Execution time of the transwarp calculations was also cut by reworking
its routines. Not as much of a change as the in the DE routine but still
significant. Tests show the new transwarp routine typically executes in
45% less time than the old routine.
* In the Full Sector report the one way out warps are now identified.
* Reports output to a file now include the database name in the
header. (Jeff Schroth)
* Increased the maximum number of paired ports. (Francis Ng)
* Messages displayed during an Extract or Merge are now saved in a log
file. This allows you to easily review the messages or get a hard copy.
A configuration option was added to specify whether the first extract
or merge of a session should append to the file or overwrite it. Refer
to the doc for details. (Dan Roseen)
* As stated in the Fidonet national Trade Wars echo last October the Merge
function in the Modify menu is no longer registered only. This was done
because it was fairly easy to do a merge using captures with the same
results although it would not be very elegant. It did not make sense to
keep this feature registered only.
* The Extract routine will now recognize a colon by itself on a line as
a CIM line. This was to fix a problem with some comm programs and
editors that strip trailing spaces.
* A lot of under the hood work to get ready for variable size universes
in TW2002 v2.0.
