------------
V1.0
----
First 'real' release.
Support of EELASTF.ILE with 3 parameters.
Support for command line switches to bypass parameters.
V1.1ft
------
Fixed bug with /R(+/-) and no filename.
Added support for loading macros and running a macro.
Changed help text to make sure margins are defined if page
numbers are required.
V1.2
----
Fixed bug with 2 command line switches and no filename.
Set initial left margin offset to 0 for printing.
Cured a bug in the Printer Setup window.
Changed initial menu in Print Menu to line 3 (file). Avoids
accidental printing of file.
Added support for local EEINITF.ILE files as well as the global
one.
Added a 'CTRL-Z' to the print output (if to printer) to close off
a network printer.
Took out check for illegal command line switches. They are just
ignored now.
V1.21
-----
Took out CTRL-Z on print output since it didn't work.
Changed structure of printing to use the DOS open and CLOSE
mechanism for devices. This means the 'paper out' error will be
lost (you get a general error writing to print device) but it
should work over the network.
Added support for LPT3, COM1 and COM2 as print devices.
Added support for F11 and F12. No idea if it works since my
keyboard (LK250) doesn't support it. Can't test it with my
other keyboard since my BIOS appears to trap and throw away
those keys.
Changed default function key assignments to support
my keyboard. Should be no impact on other keyboards.
Modified the Function Key Help in EEINST to display more on one
screen. Much easier to read now.
@pa
V1.22
-----
Fixed bug if you try to open the last file (EELAST=ON) and
EELASTF.ILE is not there.
Added a test for illegal command line switches - immediate exit.
Necessary to fix above problem.
Added 'R_C' option to opening new file (CTRL-F2)
Fixed bug with moving to correct line number if pagination is ON.
Fixed bug with 2 command line switches and no filename (Put in in
V1.20 !!)
V1.23
-----
Fixed a bug in the printing routine where the output filename
wasn't being initialised properly.
Added '%' option in headers/footers to print current date.
Added '&' option in headers/footers to print current time.
Fixed bug in print menu where first char was not being
highlighted.
Fixed bug in print menu where the printer definition table was
being lost on entry.
V1.24
-----
Added an '*' before the filename in the status display to show if
the file had been modified.
Renamed the EEINST program to KBD_INST at the request of Paul
Medcalf.
@pa
V1.30 - Major new release
-------------------------
Added 'Autosave'. This option will back up the file every few
minutes (specified by the SAVETIME option), to a file with the
name of the file being edited and an extension of .SAV. It does
not affect the original file or the backup (.BAK) file. If you
abort the edit, the original file is preserved.
The autosave will back up all files being edited as long as they
have been modified. It does NOT back up linked files (editing the
same file in two windows) more than once. It does not change the
status of the 'modified' flag (specified by an '*' next to the
filename). If the file has been modified, it WILL be saved when
you exit from the program.
If you abort the edit for any reason, the .SAV file will still
remain. This allows you to have an intermediary file with some
edits in it for you to access (it all helps). You may delete
this file manually or wait for Easyedit to delete it on the
next save.
Updated the help text to reflect the extra options available in
the print menu (left over from V1.21)
V1.31
-----
Modified the save routine to delete the .SAV file after saving. It
wasn't being done before.
Added a check for > 59 minutes in SAVETIME. AUTOSAVE is turned off if
an illegal time is entered.
Changed the save file subroutine so it does not save the .R_C and last
edited files if its only an AUTOSAVE.
Changed the autosave override to /A- (it seemed better than B)
V1.32
-----
Fixed a bug where, if you had modified one window and were editing
another window, the current window overwrote the .SAV file of the
other window.
@pa
V1.33 - first public release
-----
Added a /L:filename option to read in another macrofile at run-time,
thus bypassing the defaults.
Added an option '/A+' to enable Autosave from the command line.
Changed the command line parsing so that wild cards can have switches.
Changed the Macro execute function so it doesn't operate on wild cards.
Fixed a few esoteric bugs with the command line switches.
V1.34
-----
Added a box drawing option. Press <Alt-F5> to mark start of block,
move cursor and press it again to draw box between marks.
V1.40
-----
Added line drawing option. Toggle with Alt-F4 then use cursor keys.
Added LEFTUP option to EEINITF.ILE. Makes left arrow wrap to end of
previous line.
Fixed setting cursor at last position when reading in files which were
written out using the 'Page mode' option.
Fixed markers to allow user to go to marker for corner of box.
Fixed bug when invoking drawbox (alt-F5) for third and 4th time.
V1.41
-----
Changed American spelling of 'colors' to UK 'colours'
Added Shift-F10 to close current file and open a new one.
Fixed bug where current file was always written out even if not
modified when using the Shift-F10 option.
Changed window link to reflect line drawing status of other
window on open (F2 [RET])
V1.50
-----
Added a character translation table facility. File has name of Printer
Definition File but with extension of .CHT. Structure is:
Col 1 - Character to be translated
Col 2 - Ignored.
Col 3-34 - String of characters to replace the original (max 32).
There can be up to 32 of these translations.
Tested on Dec LA75 with box drawing characters.
Changed printing option so that when it is called while printing is
taking place, an information box is displayed with relevant info on
the file being printed.
Fixed memory display with <Ctrl-F1> (Get Info) so it agrees with the
<Shift-F1> (Get Memory) option. Wasn't hard when I thought about it.
Just got free memory BEFORE assigning space for window not AFTER.
Fixed bug if escaping from 'Goto page' option. (It used to take you to
Page 1 all the time).
Fixed error handling when printing to a printer
Fixed major error in Borland internal error handling routines.
Simplified things a lot so that the error won't happen.
V1.60
-----
Changed maximum number of tabs to 40 (was 20)
Added the following command line options
/I+ /I- Start off in insert or overstrike modes
/T+ /T- Write tabs on output or spaces
/W+ /W- Start off with wordwrap on or off
/J+ /J- Start off with right justify on or off
/P+ /P- Start off in 'page mode' or not.
/T:n Set tab size to 'n'
Added macro substitution for:
F Current filename
D Current date
T Current time
S String read in at playback time.
Fixed a bug in the 'open window' command. (A rare one).
Extended the length of the print status window to 60 characters.
This should capture most filepaths around.
V1.61
-----
Fixed a Borland bug where the keyboard typeahead was being
captured by EasyEdit on exit
Made sure that the macro substitution understands low case commands.
V1.62
-----
Fixed a bug whereby Shift-F10 would always save a 'NONAME' file
even if nothing was modified. (Borland again)
Fixed a bug whereby Ctrl-F10 would save a file even if not
modified. (Borland again)
Changed the Modified flag when reading in a file and running out
of memory. Now, it does not set the modified flag so a mistaken
'Save and Exit' will not overwrite the original.
Fixed bug in EdInterruptableDelay whereby it hung if a window
was open on the screen
V1.70
-----
Changed the format character '@' to be user configurable
End-End now goes down a line (optionally)
Home-Home now goes up a line (optionally)
If user option set, right arrow goes to the next line if at the
end of the line
The printing display now shows and constantly updates the page
number.
Changed KBD_INST so that it only does the full screen data entry
of keyboard changes without the superfluous question
Fixed a bug in KBD_INST where it would remove the modified
display if the key was 'escaped' from a second time.
Added the option to print out the keyboard mapping to a file for
later printing
V1.71
-----
The SHAREWARE version
Changed the EEINITF.ILE to be EE.CFG
Changed the program so that the EE.CFG file can have comments in.
Removed all references to the .UID file and the copyright notice.
Tidied up the code (saved about 2Kb).
V1.72
-----
Added a new option to EE.CFG - WRITER_C to avoid writing the .R_C
file if it is not being used
V1.73
-----
Added an option 'Exit' to the file menu (requested by Laing Homes)
Changed KBD_INST so that it would read in and save a binary
keyboard definition file EEKEYF.ILE
Fixed KBD_INST so that the 'R' and 'Q' options ask for
confirmation if anything has changed.
V1.74
-----
Fixed a bug in KBD_INST where the last line of the EEKEY.MAP file
wasnt being written
Fixed a bug in EE where the line showing the page number
currently printing would be written even if not asked for (Forgot
to set a boolean to False)
Changed the Find-Next command so that it ignored the 'G' option
Added a new command to EE.CFG - SEARCHINIT which sets the initial
options in the FIND,FIND-NEXT or REPLACE commands.
Fixed a bug whereby the Printer Definition file was not being
loaded in properly if there was a path in front of it.
Centred the 'Info screen' (Ctrl-F1).
Changed the print initialisation routine so that it looks for a
.R_C file to get the margins from.
Centred the printing information screen
V1.75
-----
Increased the typeahead buffer to 1024 from 256 to allow for
macros to be executed more times.
Fixed a bug where the default path wasn't being initialised
properly (my fault - trying to fix an old bug the wrong way)
V2.00 - First of the new breed!!
--------------------------------
Added FULL mouse support. Better than anything else on the market.
Added an option to print a Table of Contents.
EasyEdit can now read in read-only files or files on a network (ms-net)
The print translation table space has been increased to 64 lines
of up to 64 characters each. This is to accomodate long init
sequences sometimes found on the new laser printers
The correct message is displayed at the top line when autobackup
is taking place
The spelling checker code has been removed. This saved about 10Kb.
Tidied up the help file a bit.
Speeded up entering long lines with WordWrap set
Fixed a bug in the Autobackup routines where it would back up too
soon the first time.
Added the ability to position the cursor at the beginning or end of a
found string.
Fixed a bug with applying macros if the start and end character were
<home> or <end> and ENDHOME was ON in EE.CFG.
Fixed a bug with Find-next and block markers

Extended the environment variables to include %var% in the middle.
Fixed a bug when attempting to write the EELASTF.ILE data to a R/O drive
V2.21
-----
Fixed a bug with /BC switch where it would hang if it didn't find
a binary file
V2.22
-----
Fixed a bug (introduced in 2.10) where, when trying to read a R/O or
networked drive, the error message 'file not found' was given.
Added command to check for and extract a binary file from the file
displayed in the current window.
V2.23
-----
Fixed a bug where binary file addition caused a hang if it wasn't in the
current directory.
Fixed a bug where doing a BLOCK READ from a networked or R/O file caused
the wrong messages to be displayed.

I hope I've fixed the bug with the mouse movement losing characters on a
slow machine.
V2.25
-----
Fixed bug where the <F10>OS gave a 'file is read-only' message trying to
write to EE.EXE
Fixed a bug with the EMS ON/OFF - it wouldn't have worked.....
Added an option in EE.CFG - BCHALT - to halt after checking for a binary
file even if one wasn't found
Added the option to change the binary file name/directory etc before
writing it
EE now checks for the cursor size and attempts to restore it before exiting
I've swapped over two routines to try and fix a BASIC problem if you
called EE with data in display page 1
When adding a binary file using the <F10>FA option, if the current window
has not been modified, then editing continues. The way the switch '/AB'
is used has not changed.
The manual EASYMAN.TXT now starts in column 1 (the @PO 8 command is out)
V2.30
-----
Added an option to lock files for multi-tasking (eg Desqview) or network
use
Fixed a bug with environment variables needing to be upper case.
Increased the size of the print formatting commands from 32 to 64 chars
Added an 'attention' command - to perform keystrokes many times.

Print multiple copies of a file
Added /G:nnn to go to line no nnn on entry.
Changed some of the messages to be more informative.
Added most of the code for 132 column work (not yet implemented)
Bypassed some code for CGA monitors to see if it cures a problem.
Added extra formatting commands for dates in headers and footers

Added option for autosave to save to a different device/dir
Added option for network users to have a local EE.CFG and EELASTF.ILE
Added option for network users to change the default extension for file

Changed the status line and tabs so it didn't look quite like Borlands
editor and added new functionality.
Enhanced the copyright notice.
Fixed a bug where the .SAV file might not have been deleted on exit.
V2.41
-----
Changed the screen layout some more so it looks less and less like the
Borland editor without losing functionality.

write the REAL manual).
V2.42
-----
Changed the default printer file to be the file in the current window.
Fixed a bug with loading .PDF files after a different one had been saved
with the <F10>OS command.
Changed the way EEMOUSE.CFG is read in so it matches EE.CFG
Changed the way EE.MCH is read in so it looks in the EELPATH directory
then in the EEPATH directory.

Centred the DIR and PRINT windows
Codepage now works OK with the CODEPAGE ON option. You lose 43/50 line mode
Added variable line spacing with the @LSx print command.

windows on exit.
Added all the commands plus keys to the key help (SHIFT-F5)
Fixed bug with print status display if unformatted printing
V3.00
-----
1. EasyEdit will now optionally revert to the starting directory on exit
from a 'spawn' command, rather than staying with the directory in use when
the spawn was over. This is achieved with the HOLDDIR command in EE.CFG.
2. The Load, Store and Add Macro Comment menu options now leave the menu
on screen rather than reverting back to editing.
3. The macro filename last used is remembered.
4. EasyEdit can now optionally use the extra keys of an 'enhanced'
keyboard for extra functions. This is set up with the KBD_INST program and
utilised with the ENHANCED command in EE.CFG
5. EasyEdit can now work in column mode for block Copy, Move and Delete
commands.
6. The 'Delete left Char' (backspace) command now looks at the status of
the Insert flag and will not compress characters if in overstrike mode.
7. The 'Delete Char' (Del) command now looks at the status of the Insert
flag and will not compress characters if in overstrike mode.
8. The 'Delete left Char' (backspace) command will not delete any print
attribute markers. The 'Del' command will do it.
9. There is a new command (no 170) to delete all attribute markers in a
block.
10. EasyEdit will optionally when printing, NOT print page numbers if no
commands are given to turn it off (ie start off in 'nopagenumbers' mode).
This command is set with the STARTNUM command in EE.CFG.
The following bugs have been fixed.
1. When editing print attributes, the memory used was not being returned
to the heap space. This has been fixed.
2. If a macro file overran the maximum buffer length (ie, macro recording
not turned off), and then the macro was saved, a run time error 204 was
possible. This has been corrected.
3. If a macro file overran the maximum buffer length (ie, macro recording
not turned off), and then the scrap macro was edited, an infinite loop was
entered, hanging the system. This has been corrected.
4. If a loaded macro file had an error, it was possible to get erroneous
results. Now, the load aborts and the previous macros are left.
The following are extra sections in the manual.
1. Notes on the block column working
2. Notes on enhanced keyboard usage.
Miscellaneous.
1. The file Relnotes.txt will be updated with previous release notes.There
will be a separate file (RELEASE.xxx) with notes as above.
2. The distribution will now be in one self extracting .EXE file of less
than 360Kb in size. This will enable it to fit onto one low density 5.25"
floppy diskette.

My 'DEC Testbed' (yes, all of you !!)
V3.01
-----
Fixed a bug where the HOLDDIR command wasn't working.
Fixed a bug where KBD_INST wasn't saving the correct information in the
EEKEYF.ILE file.
3.10
----
Added the option IGNOREM to cope with old software that leaves composite
monitors in video mode 2 when it should be mode 3. If you see EasyEdit
coming up in black and white, set this option ON.
Added a print option to offset output at print time. Thanks to Jim Bourne
for this one
Fixed a bug in KBD_INST where the current directory wasn't initialised
properly
3.11
----
Fixed a bug where NONAME and '/' parameters caused an almighty cockup!
3.20
----
Added the facility to have a user replacable menu system. Called with
OWNMENU set ON in EE.CFG and a file, EEMENU.CFG in either the LOCAL or
GLOBAL support path.
V3.21
-----
Fixed a bug where the enhanced keys were being ignored if in the menu
system.
Added an extra command MAKEBACKUP to allow the user to determine whether
they want backups to made at each save. Asked for by Dick Pountain of Byte
(how could I refuse him !)
V3.22
-----
Fixed a bug from 3.21 where I got some coding wrong. Enhanced keys now
work in editing windows....
V3.23
-----
Fixed a bug in the 'Do Command' command where I wasn't checking if the
command was a zero length.
Fixed another bug in 'Do Command' where the max number of times it could
be inserted was computed wrong (very rare!)
3.24
----
Changed the default use of EMS to OFF.
Added the ability to have multiple environment variables on one line in
EE.CFG. It was so easy !!! [my first go at recursion]
Changed the 43/50 line mode so that, if invoked from the menu, it goes
back to editing and not to the menu
Cured a bug where right justification was not being done correctly on
typing even though it was OK on CTRL-B. {yes, a Borland bug}
Cured a bug in Block Column mode where it was killing things off !!!
Cured a bug in File Exit where, if SAVEALL was OFF and you pressed <ESC>,
the files were deleted.
Cured problem with block copies if there were hidden attributes before
the line.
v3.30
-----
Added a buffer number to the status line. This goes in place of the page
number and identifies each window with a unique number.
Added the option to read in most of the EE.CFG options from an environment
variable (SET EECFG=...). There is a new program EECFG which sets it all
up for you. [Well, you didn't want to do it by hand, did you ?]
Added a new command to make a file Read-Only.
Added a command line option '/RO' to make the previously mentioned
filename a read-only window.
Added a new command to set a file as Read-Write (only if it was set
read-only by the user).
Added a new command to find the next word matching the word under the
cursor. The word is made the next 'search string' and the last search
command is set as a 'find' [for find next]
Added a new option for macros to input the value of an environment
variable.
Fixed the case when you are copying columns of text and there are
attributes within the marked block. It WILL cause problems where it is
copied to, so watch out for it.
V3.40
-----
Check for presence of a 3 button mouse properly. Tested on a GENIUS mouse
Check for a legal filename off the command line.
Add in all the commands to differentiate between left and right mouse
buttons being pressed and the middle button of a 3 button mouse.
Add a new command for one key/arrow key selection (ala SEDT)
Moved Find into overlay
Fixed screen update problem - it did it twice. (yes, a Borland hangover)
Made block select go backwards.
Added new command line option /NB - Don't make a .BAK file.
Added new options to Find command. (n), (+n), (-n). where
(n) - search string must start in col n
(+n) - search string must start in col n or later
(-n) - search string must start in col n or earlier
Of course, this also applies to Search/replace, Search next and
Search/Apply Macro.
Allowed for multiple () search options to enable search between specified
columns
Changed the action of <HOME> so that, if Auto-Indent is ON, the first press
takes you to the first char of that line if the cursor was to the right
of the line anyway.
Changed the default delay for both mouse buttons to be pressed to 100ms. At
the default of 20ms, funny things could happen if the mouse driver was
loaded into the UMB area (QEMM LOADHI program).
Fixed a problem where the autobackup was being done too soon if a timer
value was not specified in EE.CFG.
Fixed a problem where the keyboard buffer was being absorbed if the user
used the menu system to exit rather than <ALT-F10>.
Fixed a problem where the right arrow was wrapping round one character
early if RIGHTDOWN was ON in EECFG.
Added new command to go to first line of next paragraph
Added new command to go to last line of previous paragraph
Fixed a problem where, if line drawing was ON, odd commands which use the
UP and DOWN LINE commands would invoke the line drawing routine.
Changed the cursor display so that, on overstrike, it displays a half block
cursor (as seems to be accepted practice these days). Tested in normal
and VGA 50 line mode on my 386 and on a Compaq SLT 286. Please let me
know if its odd on your machine.
Added bits to the help file.
V3.41
-----
Fixed a bug where swapping a space for a nul character on the last line of
a file caused an infinite loop. Yes, another original Borland bug.
v4.00
-----
Moved the TABS routines into the overlay. Saved 4K of memory.
Moved Files routines into overlays.
Added option to use the GOLD key style of working using the <ESC> key.
Added a small clock in the top right hand corner of the display.
Changed the AutoIndent indicator from 'Ind' to 'AI'.
Added an option, MOVEIN, which makes the first press of HOME go to
character 1 not column 1. This was the only way in V3.41, but I go fed up
with pressing HOME twice to get to column 1.
Fixed bug where program could crash if block markers where defined in two
files
Took out a debug statement from the 'Do Command' routine (who knows how
long that one had been there ?)
Added two more commands to scroll all windows up or down at the same time.
I use CTRL-HOME and CTRL-END which replace the original uses.
Added an option in printing to print all pages, even pages or odd pages.
Fixed bug where the highlight in a print menu would extend over 2 lines
after saving print edits
The following text is all about TSR'ing EE
===========================================
Added the option to swap memory to disk or EMS when loading thus
freeing all but 6Kb of memory. The 'hot key' is ALT-TAB by default.
Reduced reserved memory if TSR since we won't need it for swapping to
DOS.
Not allowed to Quit, Exit or Save Binary and Exit. Once inside EE, Press
CTRL-F4 to exit. You may reassign this key but do not unassign it. You will
never be able to get out otherwise. Also, do NOT assign it to the same key
as the 'hotkey' or else you will never be able to exit from EE once
invoked.
Check if Decnet is running - swap to disk by default if so.
Check if in graphics mode when swapping in - if so, beep and don't swap
back in
Check if the app which I am swapping over is in 43/50 mode - If so, save
its state and restore it on exit.
Save the state of the mouse driver using INT 33 functions 15,16 and 17. If
your mouse driver doesn't support them, tough!
Added option to TSR it without swapping using a variable amount of data
space (user defined with SWAPSIZE parameter)
Added the ability to unload EE from itself or a small EEUNLOAD program.
Check that there are no unsaved files and its not printing.
Have the following command line options
/TS Go TSR and swap to either EMS or File
/EM Force a swap to EMS (override the decnet check)
/FI Force a swap to a file
/UN Try and unload EE from memory.
/NS Don't use swapping, just go TSR - SWAPSIZE works here
/K:n Use hotkey no 'n' (see below)
Have the following EE.CFG commands
SWAPSIZE nnnn The size in paragraphs (16 bytes) of the data space
available when going TSR and not swapping. Default
is 2048 (minimum amount) - about 29Kb.
HOTKEY nnnn The key to be used to invoke EE as a TSR (default
is ALT-TAB).
Number 1-4:
1 is ALT-TAB
2 is CTRL-TAB
3 is ALT-`
4 is CTRL-`
Added an extra environment variable, EESPATH, which points to the disk/dir
where swap files will reside.
There is a new program EEUNLOAD whose sole function is to try and unload EE
from memory. Use this if the second copy of EE won't fit (for the /UN
command
4.01
----
Took out decnet check. It was not needed.
Increased line length to 1025 from 999 - asked for by a paying customer.
(EEB). It costs 32 bytes.
4.10
----
Fixed a bug where a run-time error would occur if the user tried to save
the defaults and there was not enough memory to play with.
Added header and footer options to include the file being printed and its
last update time. Uses special chars '$' and '^'. Requested by B. Fowler
Added default header and footer options in EE.CFG as well (DEFHEAD/DEFFOOT)
V4.20
-----
Fixed a bug where the DEFHEADER and DEFFOOTER were uppercased.
Added an internal spelling checker.
V4.21
-----
Added an environment variable EERPATH to allow storage of R_C files in a
common subdirectory
V4.22
-----
Changed the dictionary format to my own routines. This fixes a bug where
the system crashes out if the speller is user when there is no memory
left.
Fixed a bug in closing a networked file.
V4.30
-----
Load Macros routine now looks at the EEPATH directory.
Put Macro functions in overlay
When printing, the file is automatically saved if it has been modified.
When spawning to DOS, if EMS is there, EE will swap itself out to DOS,
leaving a 3kb stub (plus COMMAND.COM). This is increased by 6kb in the
TSRable version.
Support for compilers (swapping itself out).
TPC
TCC
TASM
MSC
MS QC
MASM
4.31
----
Make cursor sit at end of line where compiler error is for TPC
Option to use NUMLOCK key as <ESC> key (for GOLD key users)
4.32
----
Would you believe it - after all these years, anothe Borland bug.
Disabled CTRL-BREAK - stops the program terminating abnormally.
V4.40
-----
Added option to do autosave after a set number of keystrokes.
Changed Autosave file extension to .ESV (from .SAV)
Added check for .ESV on reading in a file. If there, ask if it can be
restored, and if so, overwrite the current file with it.
Added a new environment variable, EEBPATH, to allow backup files to be
stored into a different area.
When spell checking, if a word in a justified line is changed, the line will
be rejustified
Fixed a Borland bug where manual page feeding didn't work. [The display for
pressing <RET> when a new page was in called PRINT-NEXT in the background]
V4.41
-----
Fixed bug in exiting from TSR mode where resetting video mode blows away
the mouse reset.
V4.42
-----
Fixed a bug where, in Overstrike mode, a DELETE WORD would hang the system.
Fixed a bug with system doing funnies if block_to and block_from are both
on the same char.
Changed the Block Toggle command to do a delete block highlighting. Its not
a toggle any more.
V4.43
-----
Compiler switch options are not now uppercased
If two @FT commands were entered, the second was ignored. This is cured.
If a save of defaults was done after a print to LPTx, the default save
filename for a 'print to file' was set to LPTx. This has been changed so
an 'intelligent' guess is made at the output name.
V4.44
-----
Fixed bug where, in column mode, the right margin of a selecting block was
the last character of current line, not where the cursor was.
Fixed bug where printing would sometimes pause when you want it to speed
up.
Removed 3 second delay when user changes font on printing
V4.45 28/6/91
-----
Fixed bug where dictionary was opened in write mode - failed if R/O
Fixed bug where wrong abbreviation file was being opened if nothing
specified in EE.CFG
Added new option in EE.CFG - FULLCURS - to add a full height hardware
cursor for those laptop users who are using CRUISE CONTROL and can't see
the software cursor when scrolling around ('cause its too fast).
Specify ON or OFF.
