JCSCROLL (tm) Version 3.10 - (c) 1992 by Jeffrey Chasen
This is version 3.10
All known problems have been fixed.
Last bug fixed was a problem with EMS and programs that shell to DOS.
New Feature:
------------
Support for ALT-Key combination activation has been added. Just pass
a command-line parameter such as JCSCROLL /K={ALT}Y to have ALT-Y be
the hot-key.
Also, I have added full DOS 5.0 type syntax. For example, JCSCROLL /?
will give you a command summary. And /L is the same as -L.
NOTE: Mono mode is supported, but I do not support dynamically switching
from MONO to color modes. Whatever state your computer was in when
JCScroll was installed is what it uses. So if you are in a color mode
when you install JCScroll and then switch to a MONO mode JCScroll will
work on the color monitor.
JCScroll is a tsr that will enable the DOS user to scroll up on the screen
in order to view text that has scrolled by. For example, you issue
a DIR command and get a list that scrolls by too fast for you to see. Well,
with JCScroll just activate the tsr by hitting the left and right shift
keys, and you will be able to scroll up and see the text that scrolled by.
You may use the arrow keys, PgUp, PgDn, Home and End keys to scroll.
This version of JCScroll supports EMS. The tsr itself will only take 10k
It also supports all text modes (i.e. 80x25, 40x25, 80x40, 80x50).
You may also activate JCScroll from within any text application. So, for
example if you are in you word processor and you would like to see what was on
the screen before you entered your program, just activate JCScroll and
scroll up.
The number of lines that JCScroll will store is configurable with
a command line option. JCscroll will work on any IBM compatible.
JCscroll is shareware. A registration fee of $10 is appreciated.
