Changes for Version 1.1a
------------------------
FEELX (THE MAIN PROGRAM):
=========================
- Only those hotkeys are deleted from the message queue that are associated
with an action
- Ability to change hotkey-shift-combination. Use either the new "hotkey"-page
of the WPS object or the hflag-flag of fxopt.
- Access hotkeys from OS/2 FS sessions
- Big Bug in the sliding focus feature removed. Because of this bug
a) the combo-boxes didn't work (sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry)
b) the system could hang when dragging a program object on the WPS
- Activate all controls is now off per default. This feature is still
available (fxopt all:on save / WPS object, page 1)
- ini-entry changed to FeelX11a (you can delete FeelX11)
- New entry point: B2Desktop (this does work for native PM w/o WPS only!)
- Init of Spooler (??)
- tried to improve always on top (still problems left)
- tried to improve shutdown
- Minnie is shown as long as FeelX is initializing.
(instead of 10 sec.)
Changes to FeelX objects:
=========================
- switchto: new object
name a program name (e.g. e.exe, viewdoc.exe)
forces FeelX to switch to that session. Useful with hotkeys!
WPS-Object:
===========
- new page "hotkey" (shift modifier and Full-Screen-Hotkey support)
- the default object name is now <WP_FEELX>
- (rudimentary) "help" is now working
Tools:
======
- The lines of fxopt.exe now depend on whether you use codepage 437 or 850 :-)
- fxopt now supports:
fshotkey:[yes|no] Enable hotkey support from OS/2 Fullscreen
delhotkey:[key] delete a hotkey (e.g. delhotkey:f2)
delhotkey:all delete ALL hotkeys (=turn off)
hflags:[c|s|a] Turn on/off shift/alt/ctrl as hotkey shift flags
Changes since Version 1.0 (compressed. See feelx.inf for more infos)
--------------------------------------------------------------------
FEELX (THE MAIN PROGRAM):

problems removed:

- menus are easier to use
new features:

WPS-Object:
===========
- completly rewritten. I hope you like it!

==============
- almost completly rewritten. I hope it is easier now.
Tools:
======
- wpopen added (opens default view of WPS objects or current path)
- wo added (fault-tolerant search of file(names))
- isChild added (return code signals wether a command is the shell itself
or a child of the shell).
- fg now runs with full screen programs
(but still requires popuppm to be running)
- fg now runs even if it is the child of a child (...) of the shell
- fg now runs in DOS shells.
- callrx added to show integration of ext. prgs.
- fxopt runs from DOS-session (full functionality)

(... and still a lot of work left)
