- Changed/Fixed:
- -------------
-
- - Some Spanish texts corrected (registered versions only,
- Thanks to Luis Rodriguez).
-
- - System crash fixed when Telix was called with the '/NOMOUSE' option
- while running with a default screen size greater than 25 lines.
-
- - Reactions on AVATAR cursor positioning control sequences fixed
- according to the FSC-0025 rules (AVT/0).
-
- - Shelling out to DOS will now properly de-initialize a FOSSIL driver
- and re-initialize it after returning from the shell as well.
-
- - Possible crashes due to a memory overflow error fixed while attempting
- to allocate space for window storing purposes.
-
- - SALT command 'vsavearea' did never return (-1), if space allocation
- for saving the area failed
-
- - SALT command 'exittelix' did never perform a hangup (when Telix was
- online), even if its second parameter told Telix to do so.
-
- - ZModem transfer rate calculation fixed in the Up-/Download window, when
- one or more files were not sent/received during a batch transfer because
- they already did exist on the target system and Zmodem Crash-Recovery
- was enabled in Telix.
-
- - Bug in SALT script compiler fixed. There must not be passed more than 12
- arguments to a script function. The new SALT compiler (v1.52) will now
- check for this condition and will abort compilation by displaying an error
- message if that happens to prevent possible memory overflow errors when
- running the script later by Telix.
-
-
- Added:
- -----
-
- - New install program which will automatically install and brand your
- Telix version and setup your modem for proper use with Telix.
-
- - The modem configuration program MODEMCFG.EXE is now automatically
- launched by Telix when a Telix configuration file *.CNF does not
- yet exist.
-
- - New pulldown menu entry in configuration menu and hotkey (Alt-F1)
- created starting the modem configuration program (MODEMCFG.EXE) manually
- from within Telix.
-
- - The SALT file upload command 'send' now starts the Telix upload manager
- to select files for being uploaded manually, if its second parameter
- contains the string "*SELECT*" (case-insensitive).
-
- Example: i = send('Z', "*SELECT*");
-
- - If possible, Telix will now use Extended Memory areas to place its text
- there and for buffering data. Therefor, Telix will first try to
- allocate UMB (Upper Memory Block) memory. If this fails, it will try to
- allocate memory in the HMA (High Memory Area). Nevertheless, you must
- note, the DOS versions >= v5.0 itself will request and allocate UMB as
- well as HMA memory, which is then not available for application
- programs. To make these memory areas available for application programs,
- they must be first provided by an appropriate "DOS=" entry in the
- CONFIG.SYS file.
-
- Examples:
- ---------
-
- DOS=NOUMB -> DOS itself doesn't request UMB, available for applications
- DOS=LOW -> DOS itself doesn't request HMA, available for applications
-
- A combination like "DOS=LOW,NOUMB" is also possible.
-
- The new commandline option "/NOXMS" disables the use of Extended Memory
- areas by Telix (independent of any settings in the CONFIG.SYS file). By
- default, Telix will always try to use Extended Memory. However, using
- this option has no influence on the setting, that will Telix itself
- cause to be swapped to Extended Memory, when a DOS shell is launched.
- This behaviour is exclusively controlled by the Configuration|General
- options|P parameter.
-
- - Italian language support (registered versions only)
