Whats new in this version of GO! ???
3.11 01/15/93 - Added Desqview "aware" routines. GO! will now surrender
time to other programs when running under Desqview.
- Added /PAU command line switch by request for such a
feature from several users. With this switch, GO! will
wait for a keystroke before continuing.
- Fixed bug in drive search sequence. Let's say your
system has three drives, C:, D: & E: and the current
drive is D:. GO! should search the drives in the
order DCE, but was instead always searching the current
drive twice, ie: DCDE.
- Optimized the array handler for loading the directory
names further. This reduced the code size by a
considerable amount and also sped up the searching.
Version 3.11 is smaller than 3.10 and has more features!
- Added ERRORLEVEL setting for checking from .BAT files.
- Added this WHATS.NEW file to the archive.
3.10 12/15/93 - Finished adding the hooks for the REGME.EXE program
for users to be able to register their own future
versions of GO!.
- Added the ability to specify drives on the command
line to over-ride ALL or the environment variable.
- Added the ability to use \ characters to delimit the
beginning or ending must match a directory name.
- Added the /NOX /NOT and /NOA command line switches.
- Added ability to abort a search with a keystroke.
3.01 10/31/93 - Re-wrote using new library which enabled program
to load names and search at same time. Previously
GO! would load all directory names into memory then
search them for matches.
- Fixed problem with monochrome monitors going into
reverse video mode when GO exited if memory was low.
- Added search for <directory>.BAT in the directory
that is found, and automatically executing it.
- Added GO environment variable checking to allow you
to always specify a differant order or list of drives.
- Started adding hooks for REGME.EXE registration but
found bug in the registration engine and left out
until they could be resolved.
2.02 08/??/92 - Fixed bug in directory name load routine which would
cause some slow disk controllers (MFM especially) to
give "Sector not found" messages in error.
2.01 05/??/92 - Changed GO! to search by "level" instead of by
drive order. GO! now searches all drives in the
root sub-directories, then the next level, etc.
- Changed to Microsoft P.D.S. compiler and optimized
the code to reduce .EXE size considerably.
1.01 12/31/91 - First "public" release of GO!.
- Changed screen displays to make "user-friendly".
1.00 07/03/91 - First version of GO!, strictly for internal use
by myself and co-workers.
