[v1.9] Added another option to the CFG file to control whether or not
you want to force Callers to read ALL Reminders they are
presented with. In prior versions you could reply E after any of
the Reminders presented to you and NOT see the rest of
the Reminders.
Eliminated the 'ANSI not detected....' message since there are
a few communications packages out there that give off their
own type of ANSI.
If using the TRIBBS.SYS system file, the door always presented
the opening screen in black and white. Will now be presented
in color.
The Door knows that the caller is the Sysop, if the caller is
record #1 in the BBS' user database. The BBS software passes
that record number to the door via the system file. Some BBS
software does not pass the actual record number but passes a
relative number (ie: record #1 is passed as record #0). If the
number being passsed is 0, the Door will not know it is the
Sysop calling. We will now recognize the caller as the Sysop
if their record number is 0 or 1.

[v1.8] Made several minor changes to the displays
Made several internal changes to update handling of the
drop files
Security levels greater than 32767 in the CFG file were
causing Overflow (Error #6) errors.
The command line parameter, "BYPASS$", used to make this an
Autologion Door, has been CHANGED to "BYPASS" (no quotes).
This change was necessitated because some systems would react
strangley to the use of the $ character on the command line..
not sure why, but it did..
06/19/93
[v1.7] Removed delay at start of door.
Added support for the PCBoard /M version
03/12/93
[v1.6] Program was allowing the caller to enter a date that was less
than the current date. This was affecting the ONE-TIME Reminder
option and caused an ERROR #5 when searching for Reminders at
logon time.
Now supports Comm Ports 0-15
12/26/92
[v1.5] BRUN45.EXE no longer required!
Added support for Fossil-based Multi-Port cards!
10/26/92
[v1.4] When leaving a Reminder to a specific caller the Reminder
was being shown to everyone. If you still encounter a
Reminder being shown to everyone, when it should be only
shown to a specific caller OR security level, delete the
Reminder and re-enter it. Sorry for the inconvenience!
10/14/92
[v1.3] Added support for TRIBBS software. We now access the
TRIBBS.SYS system file directly!
After a CHAT or DROP-TO-DOS the game screen will now be
restored to its original state.
Added an option to the config file to bypass checking
to see if the callers comm program can handle ANSI.
This was requested so that those accessing the door via
an offline mail reader will not have to encounter the
"Cannot detect ANSI" prompt.
Added an option to the config file to allow you to use
a filename of your choice that will be displayed when
the Door returns to the BBS from an AUTO-LOGIN. The
filename had to be named BACK2BBS.TXT, in prior versions.
Be sure to add it to the config file or it will not be
displayed to your callers.
Added an option to the config file to allow you to use a
filename of your choice that will be displayed when the
caller manually exits from the Door, using option number
6 from the Main Menu.
Added another Reminder option! This option allows the
Reminder to be displayed on EVEN or ODD days of the month.
In essence this will display a Reminder every other day.
Updated the REMINDME.INS file (Instructions viewable by the
caller) to reflect the new EVEN/ODD option.
If you (Sysop) left a Reminder to ALL and did not supply a
security level range (just pressed enter to those questions)
to show it to, the Reminder was not being shown.
Introducing a FOUL LANGUAGE checker. With this version you
can have REMIND ME! check for words you deem offensive. The
program will check ALL description lines against a list of
words you supply, in ASCII format, in a file called TRASHCAN.
If a match is found the offending word(s) will be changed to
asteriks (*). TRASHCAN can contain a maximum of 100 words.

[v1.2] If the Sysop enters a Reminder to a SPECIFIC caller, then
enters Reminders to HIMSELF, the Reminder to HIMSLEF will
be seen by the last SPECIFIC caller name. A little
complicated, but it was a bug. Be sure to delete all
Reminders you entered to yourself using v1.1. You might
also ask others that have input Reminders using v1.1 to
delete and redo them as well. Not too many v1.1 files got
out before I was notified of the problem and fixed it.
Sorry for any inconvenience this bug may have caused.
REMINDME.INS has been updated to correct a misspelling.
08/30/92
[v1.1] Reminders that were to be displayed on a particular day
of the month were not honoring the warning days entered
by the caller.
Added the current date to the box surrounding the
reminder being displayed.
If you find a file called REMNIDME.USR in the REMINDME
directory, you may delete it.
You can now send a Reminder to a SPECIFIC caller
You can now designate a security level that you want to
be allowed to use Sysop functions. This will only affect
functions available when entering a Reminder. May be
beneficial for your Co-Sysops!
You can now run a separate copy of REMIND ME as an
automatic login door by placing a parameter on the
Command line: REMINDME REMINDME.CFG $BYPASS$
This will allow your callers to be taken to the door
at login and have Reminders displayed to them. They are
returned to the BBS rather than being left at the
REMIND ME menu. If REMIND ME finds a file called
BACK2BBS.TXT, it will be displayed while the caller is
being taken back to the BBS.

[v1.0] Initial release
