Changes in Encrypt-It v1.40 for DOS provided the following over v1.30:
- Up to 50% faster encryption/decryption. Replaced the cyclic redundancy
check (CRC) routines with high speed assembly language versions using
lookup tables. Result: Much faster encryption and decryption. However,
this results in encrypted files that can't be decrypted by previous
versions of Encrypt-It.
- Added additional code to catch the error condition where you may try to
encrypt or obtain file statistics on a zero length file. DOS will allow
you to create a file without anything in it.
- Corrected a couple of typos in the context sensitive help file.
- Expanded string input routines to handle high order ASCII characters for
use in encryption keys and other areas. This improves the compatibility
with the Windows version which could use these characters in previous
versions.
- Added information on both USA and overseas vendors. See VENDORS.DOC for
details.
- Corrected a problem with the path installation area where cursor positioning
was incorrect.
- Other minor touchups and improvements.
- Additional changes on key handling to make the DOS and Windows versions
more compatible when using upper ASCII codes in keys. This is especially
needed when using foreign language versions of Encrypt-It.
- Fixed a bug in the statistics area where VERY large files in the megabyte
range could generate statistics that exceeded the supported display values.
