REVISIONS FOR VERSION 2.5 OF EXC.EXE
1. It appears that a few applications and at least one well known appli-
cation development package actually write binary zeros to certain parts of
screen memory. These appear as spaces on the screen but are actually read
as binary zeros when EXC reads screen memory. When EXC is searching the
video memory for a string, it uses a string search algorithm that is
terminated at the first binary zero. This is because C++ uses binary
zeros to terminate strings.
The result is that certain string text would be displayed on the screen
but would not be located by EXC because the search was terminated
prematurely.
EXC now replaces any binary zeros in the screen buffer text with spaces.
This allows the search to perform as expected.
2. The ON function did not work properly when the counter was more than 9.
This has been corrected.
