MFM version 1.10 OS/2 release 1 5/12/92
This release is very alpha and has undergone only minimal testing.
*USE AT YOUR OWN RISK*.
WARNING: Please use this OS/2 version of MFM with an awareness that it
surely contains bugs from the porting process. Some bugs may be quite
dangerous to your system and it's files. Please, PLEASE, back up any
files that might possibly be affected. If you don't back something up
and this thing bites you, don't yell at me as I accept no responsibility
for what this software may or may not do.
Known bugs, limitations, and notes:
5/12/92:
1. Attempting to insert at the first line of a files.bbs results in a
trap 0d.
2. View options are disabled.
3. Shell to DOS is disabled.
4. Any usage of command line arguments results in a runtime
error that I just don't have time to deal with right now.
5. Usage of serial ports isn't coded and shouldn't work even if the
command line args bug is fixed.
5/13/92:
1. Worked around the runtime error with command line args. The -p and -a
args seem to work OK now but the -c stuff still requires work.
2. Discovered a bug that seems to hang the program. This seems to occur when
reading the files.bbs in areas with a lot of orphans.
5/30/92:
1. Discovered bug in file copy routine that made the copying and
moving of files fail. Fixed, I think.
You may report bugs to me by netmail or via the OS2BBS fidonet echo.
Don't bother Mark Billig with bug reports for this OS/2 port. Only if my
time permits it will I even attempt to fix anything.
I enjoy doing this sort of thing, but I'm severely limited in the
resources department. I've only got 4 meg o' memory and a 40 meg drive
and limited programming tools. That makes things difficult at times but
I still enjoy. If anyone is interested in helping me out somehow, let me
know via netmail. Thanks.
