HISTORY file - Family Scrapbook release notes - 8/7/91
Version are in recent-to-oldest order.
v1.02 Released on 8/7/91
Bug fix - Family group sheets were not printing the correct mother for
each spouse.
Bug fix - Relationship reports were not printing all of a person's
descendants. It would stop searching after the children.
Feature removed - Option to send Person Report: all persons of same
surname, to the screen. It wasn't working correctly and it wasn't
such a great option anyway since it didn't look exactly like the
printed version...so I killed it.
Feature removed - Option to send Family Report: all families of same
surname, to the screen. See last entry...
Feature removed - Option to send Family Group Sheets: all families of
same surname, to the screen. Ditto...
New feature - Person Database: Added a help screen for the sex field.
New feature - Added an option to the Relationship Report for selecting
birth or current names.
New feature - Added an option to the Relationship Report to print
record numbers.
New feature - Added an option to the Person Reports to print notes.
New feature - Added an option to the Family Reports to print notes.
New feature - Added an option to the Family Group Sheets to print notes.
New feature - Added an option to the Family Group Sheets for selecting
birth or current names.
Change - Altered the width of the Family Charts so that older printers
that do not support more than 132 cpl could print them.
Change - Altered the left print margin of several reports (almost all
blank forms) so that some older printers could print them.
Change - Blank chart: Relationship Chart: Altered the chart's width
so that some older printers could print them.
Change - Altered the data structure of the Printer Driver Database so
that it would be more versatile and thereby support more printers.
New feature - Printer Driver Database: Added an Alt-A (ASCII Input)
command because I got tired of looking at ASCII charts to determine
what a character's decimal value was.
Change - Printer drivers: For those printers that cannot support 20
cpi mode, I entered the 17 cpi mode commands in their place. If the
printer is a wide-carriage, satisfactory results might be achieved -
I hope....
New feature - Printer drivers: Added support for the HP Laserjet,
Epson LQ-850/950/1050, Toshiba P351SX, Mannesmann Tally MT180, Citizen
180-D, Citizen GSX-140, and Okidata 320 series printers.
Comment - Because of the changes to some reports, some users of older
versions of Family Scrapbook will notice a difference in the print
margins. This is a side-effect of trying to support other printers.
I'm still trying to scheme up a way to better handle margins...
Comment - Many of the printer drivers were based on information out
of printer manuals and not from actually testing them on the printers
themselves. Please contact me if any problems are found.
v1.01 Released on 7/18/91
This is the first official release of the program.
v1.00 Never officially released.
This is a Beta test version that was never supposed to be
distributed. One of my testers didn't follow instructions. The filename
is F-57.ZIP and it is an unfinished copy of the program. It also has
several bugs, some of which could scramble your data. If you see it, DO
NOT USE IT and encourage those who have it to ERASE it!
