LIST Version 7.3 WHAT'S NEW 1/31/90
| - The new LIST environment variable tells LIST where to place temporary
| file for the ViewArc and archive extraction functions, e.g.
|
| SET LIST=C:\TEMP
| - The new ctrl-Y command saves the current position as the bookmark,
| alt-Y repositions to the last bookmark.
| - The new /K command line switch disables the mouse. Both the /M and /K
| mouse options are clonable.
| - The new Ctl-right and 1 commands restart displaying with the first file
| - A second Help screen is now available in the Plus version which shows
| all of the Ctrl- and cursor key functions
A great improvement in speed is available when all filter options are
set off. Use alt-Z to display the toggles on the bottom line. An
option is off when its corresponding letter, e.g. 'J' for alt-J junk
filter or 'T' for the alt-T tab expansion filter, is in lower case.
The X command exits to DOS and clears the screen. In the Plus version,
you are now returned to the original directory.
The ctrl-I command has been added to the Plus version. It allows
setting the TAB interval to values other than the standard 8. Ctrl-I
prompts you to enter the new interval, which can be from 1 to 99.
The /Ftext command line parameter to begin a text search through all
selected files now invokes the Find function which is not case
sensitive.
In the File Selection (alt-V) menu:
- the ESCape and Quit commands no longer exit, they return to
the display of the last file you viewed.
- the 1-up display now includes file attributes.
New file selection commands have been added:
- Alt-C to clone settings
- Alt-X to exit to DOS and show the original screen
- Q now returns to viewing the last file
- X exits to DOS in the original directory
- F10 exits to DOS
- Command line switches are now supported in all versions.
- The Viewarc function now assumes that .EXE and .COM files are LHARC
files. Otherwise, if a file does not have the .ARC, .LZH, or .ZIP
extension, the file is assumed to be a .ARC file.
- The Help (F1) screen now only occupies the current window.
- The F2/F4 keys for setting the color of the found line now operate on
the Find line, i.e. the line where found text is displayed. The
entire found line is now highlighted, and the found text is shown in
reversed video.
