- The following features are planed for future releases.
- The first item in this list has the highest priority. The last one
- the lowest.
-
- o convert "Filter on/off" menu item to menu item "Filter?" with
- check mark support (idea by Wolfgang Brodowski 05.07.93).
- o Improve memory management (suggestion by René Schuster, 19.06.93).
- o New menu item: "Duplicate dataset" (Idea by Mike Bromery 11.6.93).
- o New menu item: "Save as - Structure" (idea by Fabien Larini, 18.06.93).
- o Improve entering date values by specifying relative dates
- (e.g. -1 for yesterday, +1 for tomorrow, 0 for today, etc.)
- o Save Filter settings and Filter programs in projects (Idea by Thomas
- Gegenheimer 8.6.93).
- o Show keypad state in the drag bar of each window (idea by Fabien
- Larini, 18.06.93).
- o New AB function: MEMOFILL(memo) which replaces variable names in
- the memo text with the contents of the current dataset. This
- would be very usefull for series of prints.
- o add an arexx port to AmigaBaseBase (idea by Stefan Hellwig 7.12.92).
- I don't know too much about arexx. I want to support the following
- functions:
- NEW for opening a new window for a new project,
- QUIT for exiting the current project (and AmigaBase if
- it was the last project),
- LOAD <file>, to load a project from the given filename,
- SAVE to save the current project,
- PROJECT <name> to switch to the given project and
- CALC <var> to call the program of the suplied variable (There
- you can do all you want.)
- Any suggestions are VERY welcome!!
- o let MEMO variables have their own window (option in new variable
- requester).
- o Auto line feed and justification for editing memo variables (suggested
- by Fabien Larini, 18.06.93).
- o New variable type: choice (displayed by a cyclegadget or
- radiobuttons) (suggested by Wolfgang Brodowski 17.06.93).
- o Font attributes (bold, italic, underlined) for variables and texts
- (suggested by Wolfgang Brodowski 30.06.93).
- o Backgroud color for variables (suggested by Wolfgang Brodowski
- 17.06.93).
- o implement functions like OPENINPUT, READ, SCANF, etc.
- o improve programming of AmigaBase: make syntax more MODULA like.
- (in particular semicolon placement).
- o improve programming of AmigaBase: move all programs of the
- variables to one big program. So it is easier to get know what
- the project does, but compiling will be slower.
- o implement method concept (e.g. methods for new dataset, delete
- dataset, arexx).
- o New AB function: DATASETNUM(record) which gives you the number of
- the current dataset in the supplied record.
- o New menu item for installing mode: "Variable - Duplicate" and
- "Record - Duplicate" (Idea by Thomas Gegenheimer 8.6.93).
