- Nanforum Toolkit v2.0 Patch #3 9/28/91
- ------------------------------------------------
-
- Jim has made some modifications to TBWHILE.PRG that correct some
- erroneous behavior in the skipBlock, and he's made some enhancements
- too. In short, he
-
- 1. Changed SAVESCREEN() and RESTSCREEN to use MaxRow(), MaxCol()
- instead of 24,79
-
- 2. Added Nantucket's cleaner code for:
- - Cleaned up logic around line 334 while loop section
- - Added refreshCurrent and another stabilize around line 349
- - TbSkipWhile was redone
- Note: Leo's line was changed to:
- ELSEIF ( n > 0 .AND. RECNO() <> LASTREC() + 1)
-
- 3. Added DispBegin() and DispEnd() around both Stabilize sections
-
- The reference to "Leo's line" in #2 is the reason for the patch.
-
- In order to update your library, just replace TBWHILE.PRG in your
- NFSRC.ZIp with the attached TBWHILE.PRG (if you downloaded the source
- code).
-
- Then, you need a library utlitity (LIB.EXE comes with many versions
- of DOS, and with most compilers). If you know what to do, simply
- replace the .OBJ module with the new one that is included in
- this patch file.
-
- If you don't have a LIB utility, you can find one by going to the MSL
- forum on CompuServe and downloading S12776.ARC.
-
- The procedure, for those not sure:
-
- 1. Make a safe copy of NANFOR.LIB. Hide it away.
-
- 2. Change to the directory where NANFOR.LIB is located.
-
- 3. Put TBWHILE.OBJ in the same directory as NANFOR.LIB.
-
- 4. Type
-
- LIB NANFOR -+ TBWHILE;
-
- That should do it.
-
- Remember to report all strange stuff in Section 5 on Nanforum! If you
- have any problems, please contact me so I can help you get them
- fixed.
