  12. │ 1.00.02Γ - Bug Fix Release                                                 │
  13. │                                                                            │
  14. │            .01Γ was not working with SuperBBS correctly.  GEdit no longer  │
  15. │            removes the DORINFO1.DEF file before exiting.  This was causing │
  16. │            SuperBBS to believe that the external editor was not executed.  │
  17. │            In addition, the SuperBBS MSGED.BBS file is now read by GEdit   │
  18. │            to display the message to/from information.                     │
  19. │                                                                            │
  20. │            .01Γ was having a rare problem of displaying the command menu   │
  21. │            and possibly aborting the message while editing and using the   │
  22. │            ANSI arrow key commands.  Keyboard processor modified to allow  │
  23. │            ESC codes through the menu.                                     │

  25. │ 1.00.03Γ - Bug Fix Release                                                 │
  26. │                                                                            │
  27. │            GEdit was not working correctly with Qmodem in ANSI mode.       │
  28. │            Qmodem does not properly interpret the ANSI ICH and DCH codes,  │
  29. │            so a new emulation mode was added that does not use these       │
  30. │            codes.  GEdit has been tested with many terminal programs and   │
  31. │            a list of them, as well as versions tested, is included.        │
  32. │                                                                            │
  33. │            A problem with FDTerm not send proper AVATAR/DOORWAY codes was  │
  34. │            compensated for and the program will now receive FDTerm raw     │
  35. │            mode keystrokes.                                                │
  36. │                                                                            │
  37. │            Several screen redraw procedures have been optimized for better │
  38. │            speed when using ANSI modes.                                    │
  39. │                                                                            │
  40. │            Help screen display has been improved, and context is now       │
  41. │            checked by the cursor location and not simply just whether or   │
  42. │            not the quote window is open.                                   │
  43. │                                                                            │
  44. │            The ANSI keystroke receive function has been totally replaced   │
  45. │            and should be more reliable now.  The VT-100 keypad is now      │
  46. │            fully implemented.  The ANSI <ESC>O keypad commands are now     │
  47. │            interpreted.                                                    │
  48. │                                                                            │
  49. │ 1.00.04Γ - Minor Modification Release / Recompilation                      │
  50. │            The program no longer requires an 80286 processor.  It will run │
  51. │            on any machine with an 8088 or higher CPU.                      │
  52. │                                                                            │
  53. │ 1.00.05Γ - Bug Fix / Feature Addition                                      │
  54. │            The program really should now work on 8086/8088 machines.       │
  55. │            I added keyboard macro support to the editor in local mode      │
  56. │            only.  Fixed the bug when calling up GChat from within GEdit.   │
  57. │            GCHAT.EXE must be in the system path to be callable from        │
  58. │            within GEdit.  Fixed a problem with the DELETE/BKSPACE key.     │
  59. │            Removed the local logon keyboard idle timeout.  Included        │
  60. │            support for the SuperBBS edit message option.                   │
  61. │                                                                            │
  62. │ 1.00.06Γ - Bug Fix / Feature Addition                                      │
  63. │            Improved the out-of-memory handling so that GEdit would no      │
  64. │            longer cause machine lockups under low memory conditions.       │
  65. │            Added the ability to use the down-arrow at the end of a message │
  66. │            so that hitting enter is no longer necessary.  Fixed a couple   │
  67. │            of screen formatting problems under ANSI mode.                  │
  68. │            Added support for RA 2.00.g1                                    │
