BASWIZ 1.4, 10/10/90:
NOTE: The Hercules Graphics routines will be gone in the next version of
BASWIZ! Improved Herc graphics will be included in my GRAFWIZ library.
The DEMO.EXE file is no longer included, to keep the archive size down.
Use CREATE.BAT to create it from the DEMO.BAS and BASWIZ.LIB files.
A bug in TERM.BAS was fixed. The problem, an inconsistency in the
StartXmodemSend calling sequence, was also fixed in the docs. The
displays in TERM.BAS have been cleaned up.
The virtual windowing system refused to display a cursor on some MDA and
CGA systems, evidently since they don't maintain a certain status value.
The fix unfortunately requires hard-wiring of the necessary value if an
MDA or CGA is detected. It may produce a strange cursor on those CGAs
which have a special hi-res text mode (except for Compaqs, which I made
allowances for). If this happens to you, please notify me.
The virtual windowing system can now automatically convert your colors so
that they will show up properly on a monochrome display. It also supports
flicker suppression for those CGAs on which this is a problem.
A routine that handles IBM ANSI codes using virtual windows has been
added. Processing of "ANSI" music is optional.
Memory management and pointers are now supported.
The numeric expression evaluator now supports parentheses for overriding
the default (algebraic) order of evaluation.
A stub file has been added to allow use of Crescent's PDQ library.
BASWIZ 1.3, 08/13/90:
The far string handler now supports use of expanded memory (EMS) as well
as conventional system memory.
BASWIZ 1.2, 07/08/90:
A bug in WDelChr was fixed.
An input routine was added to the virtual windowing system.
The telecommunications routines were expanded to include the Xmodem file
transfer protocol. This includes automatic support for all current
variants on the protocol: checksum and CRC error detection, 128-byte and
1024-byte packets. Only uploading ("send file") is currently supported.
BASWIZ 1.1, 05/26/90:
The virtual windowing system was expanded to include user-defined frame
types. A bug which prevented use of MDA and Hercules displays was fixed.
A bug in the telecomm routines which prevented use of other than COM1 was
fixed.
A comprehensive collection of file handling routines was added.
BASWIZ 1.0, 04/15/90:
This was the initial release of The BASIC Wizard's Library, featuring
virtual windows, Hercules graphics, far strings, telecommunications
support and a numeric expression evaluator.
