RV-RView, Version 2.44 07-May-92
Some changes from Version 2.43 include:
1) It's written in a different language.
2) Listings may be sorted by Name, Extension, Date, Original size, Packed
size, compression Ratio, or left Unsorted. Appending a hyphen ('-') to
the appropriate switch (SN, SE, SD, SO, SP, SR) reverses the sort order
from ascending to descending.
3) The program no longer searches your path for RV.CFG. If not in the
current directory when RView is loaded, then any (optional) RV.CFG should
be placed in the same directory as RV.EXE (DOS 3.0 and higher).
4) The contents of RV.CFG should be a bit more structured, i.e. should
resemble command-line arguments more.
5) The /I switch now signifies that RV.CFG should be ignored.
6) The meaning of the /A switch has completely changed. The functionality
of the previous /A is available by combining switches either on the
command line, or in RV.CFG.
7) The /L switch has been discontinued.
8) The /N switch has been discontinued. The equivalent new switch is /SU.
9) A new /Q switch suppresses listings completely.
Although it should make little difference from the *user's* point of view,
rewriting in a different language ultimately will make it easier for me from
a program-maintenance standpoint. [The program uses a common "library" of
routines shared with other programs I've written, including a scrollable
version of RView I've been toying around with (and shelving) off-and-on for
some time now.]
