Universal Hint System
Revision 91a
MS-DOS Version History
(October 10, 1993)
UHS.EXE Changes Since Version 1.00
==================================
1.51: All features are enabled for unregistered users (save picture to file,
disable hint counting, and open multiple UHS files without exiting to
DOS are available).
Mouse click clears the screen after a picture has been displayed.
They're back! -- occasional (*very* occasional) registration reminders,
that is.
1.50: Reminders to register the program have been reduced substantially.
Writes directly to video memory for much faster picture display.
The program now searches in the same directory as UHS.EXE for UHS.INI
and UHS_REG.TXT files for registered users to follow standards used in
the TSR version.
Fixes runtime error #104 that appeared when an invalid directory was
specified.
The register dialog box will now accept registration codes for the TSR
reader. The dialog box will automatically be filled with your name
and code if you have already entered this data.
The documentation has been updated to make note of the terminate and
stay resident (TSR or "pop-up") version of the UHS reader.
1.40: YEAH! Prettier "About UHS" and "About this Program" dialog boxes!
The ENTER key (in addition to the space bar) can now be used to select
an item in a list box.
"Print", "Previous", and "Save" window commands added.
All menu commands are disabled when not applicable.
The "white square" bug that appeared in some registered copies has now
been fixed.
Arrows on scroll bars always move through choices one at a time. In
previous versions, the arrows sometimes skipped through several items
at a time with longer lists.
"Windows | Close All" has been renamed "Clean Up" to more accurately
reflect the option's purpose.
Exit from program is now confirmed with a dialog box.
Upper-right corner of screen displays registration status (name or
"UNREGISTERED").
1.30: Counts the number of clues for each question. Registered users [all
users by version 1.51] can disable the count if they want to.
Picture display is now about 25% faster than in previous versions.
Verbose file open added.
Several common errors are recognized and an appropriate text message is
displayed in place of a simple error number.
1.20: Adds registration dialog box to make registration simpler.
Removes the drop-to-DOS function for unregistered users.
Corrects minor bugs in the picture display routine. The border now
will always be in black, and the first line of pixels is properly
drawn.
1.10: Adds support for EGA systems while displaying pictures.
Removes the run-time errors that sometimes appeared after a picture
was displayed or after an invalid filename was entered.
Reminders to register are displayed in different places.
1.01: Corrects an error that falsely reported that a file transfered through
the XMODEM protocol was corrupt.
UHSTSR/TSRB Changes Since Version 1.00
======================================
1.10: Swapping to disk supported for systems without EMS memory.
Minimum hardware requirement reduced to 286.
Decrease in memory usage (from 50K to 40K after installation).
UHSTSRB now uninstalls completely.
UHSTSRB no longer doubles keystrokes when another TSR program is loaded
after it, so this version does not need to be loaded as the last TSR.
But TSRB no longer protects other TSR programs from losing control to
the more difficult games.
UHSTSRB will now run correctly under games where it locked out the
keyboard -- both TSRB and the game now receive keystrokes, where only
TSRB would before.
And in general, UHSTSRB is more compatible with games than it was in
version 1.00.
Expanded hint display for unregistered users.
