The following is a list of improvements, corrections and/or enhancements made to
Label Magic and are fully implemented in version 1.10:


o CGA SUPPORT - The Color Graphics Adaptor (CGA) is now fully supported by Label
  Magic, including the icon editor.

o SAFER ICON SAVES - In earlier versions if you saved an icon under a name
  identical to one that already existed the original was automatically
  overwritten by the new one.  But, in this new release you are prompted as to
  whether or not the older icon should be replaced.

o FASTER ICON UNPACKING - The icon "unpacking" subroutine has been converted to
  assembler for better speed.  The new routine operates about eight times faster
  than the original.  This makes browsing through icons much faster.  Also, the
  routines used for displaying icons have been optimized.  In general, any
  Label Magic feature that reads icons from disk works more efficiently.

o IMPROVED WINDOWS - Text windowing routines have been completely replaced in
  an effort to keep RAM requirements low and to improve shadowing reliability.
  Some earlier versions had problems with window shadowing.

o TEXT MODE RESTORATION - Version 1.10 returns the computer to its original
  text mode setting upon exiting the program.  This includes the EGA/VGA 43/50
  line modes.  For instance, if you are in the VGA 50 line mode and enter Label
  Magic then it will automatically switch you to the 25 line mode and then back
  to 50 line when you're finished.

o DOS SHELL (DOS 4.00) - The DOS shell option of LABEL MAINTENENCE has been
  improved so that the "ECHO OFF" is no longer visible under DOS versions above
  3.3.
