- SiNCE SCAN 1.0 - THESE iTEMS HAVE BEEN iMPROVED :
-
- 07-19-94 - SCAN 3.00
-
- (-/+) Scan is now a DiAMOND release !
-
- (+) The time in searching for new files has been decreased to an absolutely
- minimum ! - This results of the usage of a PPL command which i didn't
- recognize before writing this holy piece of shit !
- Scan is totally new rewritten - it uses many routines which you already
- added to pcboard - like your flag command and texts from your pcbtext
- files - no further need of the old ugly selfmade flag command ;)
-
- (+) Leaves a comment in the Caller Log which shows you that Scan 3.00 was
- active
-
- (+) The config data file(s) ha(s)/(ve) been shortened to 2 lines !
-
- (+) Select 1.2 Command has been enabled to use other Languages
- (requires an own config file `slctdat.language' with 3 lines)
-
- (+) Scan is now compatible with the special short mode as used in Check/Diz
-
- (+) Compatibility has been improved a lot ! So that there should be no
- problem with any (!) PCBoard Configuration any more !
-
- (-) The files `Head', `Feet' and `Header' are unessesary, you may delete `em
-
- (-) Scan uses another filename/format for the users configuration files
- (Perhaps a Sysop with 65535 users may've gotten problemss with the old
- file names ;) )
- (Sorry but Scan will ask any user for new selecting the conferences which
- he wants to be scanned - cause he'll not find the old saved config !)
-
- SCAN 2.00
-
- 03-15-94 : SCAN iS FULLY NEW REWRiTTEN ! NOW THE USER iS ABLE TO FLAG AND ViEW
- FiLES THAT HE'S SHOWN (LiKE THE FLAG COMMAND FROM David W Terry).
