THIS VERSION WORKS (or at least it should work) WITH THE
PERFORMANCE BETA OR WARP BETA AS IT IS CURRENTLY CALLED
!!!!!!!!!!!! All features (Alt-L and Control-B)
do not work very well with the WARP II. They seem to work
with some machines/configurations but not with others.
We will fix that as soon as possible. Before that this should
allow users to use this program without those features.
We release this because more and more people seem to use
WARP II and OS/2 v3.0 is very near. Problems will be fixed
asap. October 11, 1994. !!!!!!!!!!!

This is the second Lignum PMCMD release. Lignum PMCMD v1.1 is
a commercial software which is sold by using the shareware concept.
You can freely distribute this program and use it for the testing
time. If you decide not to buy a license, please let us know why.
Lignum PMCMD v1.1 is a PM interface to OS/2 2.x command shells.
It is not a command shell itself, but it provides many features
which make the use of command line much easier. Test and see yourself.
Installation is done by unzipping all these files to the final
directory and by giving the command INSTPMCM.CMD.
The ADDICON.CMD file can be used to connect icons to files. This
file is distributed with the permission given by Timothy Sipples
(thanks to him).
In this version most of the bugs reported by those who tried or
purchased v1.0 have been corrected and some additions proposed by
them have been incorporated.
Bug corrections and improvements in version 1.1:
o Home brings the prompt to the place to which the user is supposed
to type text, not to the beginning of the line.
o The prompt (or other text) after which users are supposed to
type text tries to resist backspace key.
o Pressing Enter or Ctrl-Enter in the middle of the line does not
insert Cr to that place. Cursor is moved to the end of the line
and Cr is inserted after that.
o Esc deletes the characters typed by the user. Now works like
in OS/2 Window.
o F4 works like F1 in OS/2 Window.
o F2 allows the user to cycle through possible completions of
a filename.
o There is a keyboard shortcut which brings the VIO-window of the
session to the top and moves the focus to that window.
(This does not seem to work with all configurations).
o The color selection option has been improved. Now it is
possible to change the color of text and backgroung. Colors
can be identified by number or by name.
o The manual has changed, but it is not yet very good.
The previous version of this program has been accepted for
the CompuServe shareware registration service. Because the price of a license
for PMCMD v1.1 is the same as for v1.0 you can register v1.1 as v1.0.
Please use that service if it is convenient for you. The info for that
service is:
