NEW FEATURES AND FIXES IN GOLFMASTER! 1.1.2p
GolfMaster! 1.1.2p fixes a problem with the analyzer that caused GM! to freeze up if less than 18 holes were entered in the SCORE card being analyzed. Added are 2 new features, the first being the ablilty to turn the startup sound ON/OFF via a check box in the PREFS window. The second is the addition of a REPAIR option in the APPLE menu. If you find a bug that can be duplicated, PLEASE contact me ASAP with all the information. Then, after I've whipped up a fix, I'll send or post a REPAIR CODE to activate the REPAIR MODE. You'll know when the REPAIR MODE is active, because It'll tell you in the menu bar on top. Just follow the instructions included with the REPAIR CODE and you'll have GM! up and running in no time! This feature allows repairs/updates to GolfMaster! with out having to dowload the WHOLE program again and makes everything much simpler for all:)
