Change Notes : 12/20/92
1. The Beta Test Program now offers support to change colors
suitable for the developers application. This is done by using the
command line switch \SETCOLOR.
EXAMPLE : C:\> BETARPT \SETCOLOR
A menu will appear allowing you to select the specific items you
desire to change. Changing a color is as simple as selecting the
highlited letter. After all colors changes are made select the
Quit option. You will then be prompted to save the new colors.
2. The \SC command line switch has been changed to \SETCOMPANY.
If you desire to select or change the development company
information you must use this entry.
EXAMPLE : C:\> BETARPT \SETCOMPANY
3. Due to massive customer response the Beta Test Program now
offers up to 20 developer specific topics to be captured. The
initial setup is accomplished by using the command line
\SETDEVELOPER.
EXAMPLE : C:\>BETARPT \SETDEVELOPER
Once the command line switch is entered and the program is loaded
a scrollable window will appear. Use the up and down arrow keys to
select the first or next window that is blank. Press ENTER when
the lighted bar is on the desired line. You are asked if you
desire to 'E'dit the data or 'Q'uit. Select 'E' and you will then
be prompted to provide the specific instruction for the beta
tester. The maximum field length is 40 characters for this
individual instruction. Once you have entered the specific topic
the beta tester will then be able to provide you with this
requested information.
Once you have entered all the specific instructions to be
captured press ESC and this time select the 'Q'uit option. You are
then asked if you desire to save the changes. Select either 'Y'es
or 'N'o.
Additionally, the BETARPT.HLP file should also be altered to
provide the user with additional information about the specific
item. The help topics are titled DEV1 - DEV20. The number refers
to the specific item. A maximum of 100 lines by 60 columns are
available to provide this help information.
The 'F8' key is used to capture this specific information when a
beta tester uses BETARPT.EXE.
Change Notes : 04/21/93
Release of version 2.7. Included in the release is a partial
rewrite of both the Beta Testers manual and the user's manual.
The BETARPT.EXE now will automatically place the file size, file
creation time and file date of the program being tested when
provided by the beta tester.
Change Notes : 12/1/93
Release of version 3.0 includes a new TSR option. This option is
activated on the command line with the use of a switch. The switch
to throw BETARPT into the TSR mode is;
C:\BETA > BETARPT /r
Hotkey selection is made by using the command line below;
C:\BETA > BETARPT \sethotkey
Any one of nine different hotkeys may be selected.
Change Notes : 1/3/94
Release of version 3.01 is a bug fix for the 3.0 version of the
Beta Test Program.
