There were no releases between version 1.0 and version 1.5
Changes for DOS and OS/2 versions as of August 21, 1994
Added the ability to exclude files from the listing. This was made possible by
adding the pattern matching ability to the processing of the file names.
Wildcards are supported.
Improved sorting capability.
Fixed a problem for people using OS/2 on a LAN that caused a TRAP 000E.
Changed how files are checked for default inclusion in DIR list. This will
allow people using OS's other than DOS and OS/2 that use the attribute
bytes for attributes that are not part of the default DOS attributes.
Added ability to stop Pause function. This function will allow the user to press
'N' or 'n' to start listing the files Non-Stop.
Fixed a problem where CDIR displays files that have 0's for date and time.
I have only seen files of this type on Novell network drives.
Changed how the volume label and disk serial number are determined. This
routine will make two different attempts to try to determine a disks
Volume Serial Number and three attempts to determine the disks volume
label.
Added check to make sure that there is not an attempt to read an invalid drive.
Added ability to support patterns like "*A*.*". Normally under true DOS the
above pattern would get converted to "*.*".
Added ability to specify a range of files to be included. They are as follows.
/rdg /rsg /rng /rtg
/rdge /rsge /rnge /rtge
/rdl /rsl /rnl /rtl
/rdle /rsle /rnle /rtle
/rde /rse /rne /rte
There are no wild cards required, and 24hr format must be followed.
Added function to show range options in effect under /V. Each range type will
be on its own line and will show > >= = <= < followed by the value.
Added /B function that will display only the filename without any device
information and when the recurse directory option is on it will display the
filename with a fully qualified path.
Added ability to determine the fact that the output is being redirected. If it
is determined that the output is being redirected all color output is set
off. Also all PAUSE functions are turned off. This will allow for no
intervention when redirecting. When the /F parameter is used, the pause
function is unaffected.
Modified code to handle gigs as well as megs when outputing file amount used and
free.
Added process to show exclusion patterns under /V, they will appear in
alphabetical order.
Added ability to display OS/2 EA sizes in DOS. This information will only be
displayed when the /N option is on for performance reasons.
Added two places to the space free line and one to the space used to handle
gigs.
Fixed a problem where the "Reading Directory Entries..." did not get erased
properly when in /3 mode.
Fixed the problem where a CDROM drive would be marked as a REMOTE drive under
DOS.
Added ability to exclude a specific path ie: /X SOURCE\*.*
Added ability to see CDIR and CDIR2 environment variable.
