releases. Appy polly loggies :)
- Navigation (back/forward):
- Fixed all windows invisible!
- Add last 9 back points in Navigate menu

to view the topic. This Saves useless entries
in history while you're typing

(just in case NV crashes :P)
- File open:

windows can be sized and closed.

- Fix for text line chunks longer than 200 chars
Shows up mostly on hi-res screens

- Added Expand All item to view menu
Also option to Expand All on file open.
- Minor user interface fixes/enhancements

V1.28.3

- Saved to a text file called <name>.bmk
in the same directory as the help file.
- Layout the crash dialog text a little better!

V1.27.9

- Bug fixes in scrolling, margins, cursor
- Added popup menu for topics.
- Saves position within topic for each window
- Fixed bugs in notes handling
- Fixed up a couple of crashes in global search.
- Fixed problem with index listbox
- Various minor cosmetic fixes.
- Changed to put INI file in application dir.
V1.27.1
- Major revamp of search.
Multi-word
+/- modifiers ala altavista to include/exclude words
Results are sorted by relevance
- Simple implementation of hyperlinked bitmaps:
only handles single overall link code, but this is
enough to handle e.g cmdref examples links.
- Added checks that BOOKSHELF and HELP environment vars
are defined. Give a warning if not.
- Put INI file in application dir.
- Set margins better
V1.22.0
- Wrapping works properly with outline fonts.
- Footnotes.
- Text centering via $fb code works.
- Reworked links a little to fix crashes
- Back to Sibyl fixpack 3: may fix problems with lockups
- Checked the contents loading more carefully.
- Implemented bitmap flags, except for stretch to fit.
- More exception handling including logging
V1.19.4
- Loading rewritten. Twice as fast.
- Fixed big mess I made a big mess of bitmap loading.
- Can pick the toolbar bitmap now (File - Options - Style)
- Fixed file dialog some more: now changes directory when typed in.
- When images cannot be loaded, just displays a 'missing' placeholder.
- Menu hints, displayed in status bar.
- Fixed problem with words running together halfway through a topic
- Fixed alignment in lists
- Removed font log files (didn't learn much!)
V1.17.15
- Huge improvements in search speed, especially in global (all files) search.
Should be at least ten times faster.
- Loading files is about 3x as fast
- Fix for focus change to other apps
- Added collapse all in view menu
- Dialog font to WarpSans.9
- Fixed a bug with displaying links a second time!
- Added a few more keyboard shortcuts
Note - memory usage is well up again, but will be reduced in future
V1.16.12
- Global search is functioning, although still slow. It's a modeless dialog.
- Re-enabled save as
- Fixed - Autolinks at start of a topic, the link continues into the text
e.g. cpplng.inf
- Turned compiler optimisation off again. Was causing problems with assertions
reading bitmaps.
- Fix for setting font (more than one activation of dialog usually caused crash)
- Standardised layout of font dialog
- Loading time improvements
- Contents (outline/tree view) selection text is inverted, scrollbars fixed
- Fixed all remaining memory leaks of note (for now ;-)
- Fixed mistake in getting help file title.
- Fixed many huge bugs in searching, such as only finding the first
occurrence of each matching word!
- Search the topic titles and the index as well.
- Double clicking a note in the notes list goes to it.
- Search and index search edit boxes are not cleared on close file.
V1.15.2
- First draft of global search. It's pretty slow. Incomplete.
- Fixed index duplicates. It's not quite perfect because if there is a topic
with the same title but pointing to a different topic it will not be caught...
- Added /profile cmd line option
- Command line topic searching. Bit different to view. View searches the
index and displays only the first topic. I decided to do a full text search
and (of course) display all the results.
This could be another option, I guess, but I think mine is more helpful.
- Fixed many, many large memory leaks in help file loading.
- While loading help file(s) show which file is being loaded in the
status bar.
- Fixed a huge bug in the navigation back and forward with
multiple windows!
- Load notes before displaying first topic.
V1.13.2
- Fixed broken options screen
- Colours can be customised
- File dialog:
- Option to use std OS/2 dialog, so that enhancers can replace.
- Fix keyboard operation of directory list box
- Default filter to only help files.
- Fix copy
- Fixed problems with link mouse over
V1.12.19
- Fixed huge memory consumption and crash on files
with one or more empty topics.
- Fixed extra random data at end of topics.
- Fixed crash following link in some cases.
- Fixed the display of < and >.
- Improved index reading - should not crash ;-)
- Reset progress if file fails to load
- Improved window painting while scrolling
- FIxed bitmap/wrapping problems
V1.12.14
First public release.
