MSP Version 1.2
---------------
MSP is a document processing utility for MS-DOS and PC-DOS that
1) numbers sections, paragraphs, figures and tables
2) resolves symbolic cross references to sections, paragraphs,
figures and tables
3) builds a table of contents, a list of figures and a list
of tables
MSP is not a word processor and it is not an outline processor.
It complements your existing word processing package by providing the
numbering and cross reference features not available with any current
word processing package.
MSP should work on any MS-DOS or PC-DOS computer. It does not
contain code that references any IBM-PC specific hardware features.

Revision History
----------------
1.0 - initial release.
1.01 - minor maintenance update
Bug fixed - Some lower case alphabetic and Roman numeral format
section/paragraph numbers were not output correctly.
Bug fixed - Symbol values (section/para number, page number) were
always output in Arabic.
Changed the way the symbol table is allocated and increased the
symbol table capacity to 2000.
There was no change to the documentation for this update.
1.02 - another minor update
Bug fixed - Symbolic references to figure and table numbers were
incorrectly resolved.
1.03 - another minor update
Bug fixed - Occasionally incorrectly reported a full symbol table.
1.1 - major update
Improved the program performance, especially apparent on large
document files.
New commands allow run time changes to the display format of
paragraph and section level numbers. The user can select among
Arabic, upper or lower case Roman numerals and upper or lower case
alphabetic characters.
It is now possible to have different captions for figures and tables
(including null captions) in the document text and the list of
figures and list of tables.
1.2 - some improvements
Now check for and report paragraph level numbers that increase by
more than 1, eg going from level 2 to level 4.
Added a new command line switch, /W, to check for .PA (in any
combination of upper and lower case) in the first 3 columns of a
line and to treat same as equivalent to a form feed. This should
make WordStar users happier.
