- Version 4.1 corrects some color errors on Mono Systems. If you
- have a mono system and have any trouble displaying this program
- please let me know right away so I can correct the error. I do
- not have access to a mono system and cannot always test the mono
- features 100%.
-
- Version 4.2. Only minor changes were made to the program. These
- changes were mostly to the opening and closing screens. I had
- thought to use QuickBASIC 3.0, which is faster in execution
- but decided against it so I would not have to include the
- runtime library in the archive. Some early releases of this
- version were done with QB 3.0.
-
- Version 5.0. This is a whole new version and is written in Turbo
- Pascal 5.5. It may look a whole lot like the previous versions,
- but it is different. This one should run just fine on either color
- or mono systems. I have finally correctly handled mono systems. If
- you have trouble let me know right away. (just in case I'm wrong!)
- I configured my system as mono and tested the program and everything
- looked fine. Where I use colors I check to see if the program loaded
- on a mono system and if not then do a color command. It took a lot
- of work to convert and upgrade this one and hope I have corrected
- all the problems that I had with it.
-
- Version 5.1. Upgraded my system to BP 7.0 (Turbo Pascal 7.0, etc.)
- In so doing some of the delays I used were too long due to BP having
- bugs in the delay option corrected. Also changed some of the diplays,
- colors, Information Screen.
-
- The score file format has changed. If you are currently running an
- earlier version please delete the score file from inside the program
- and start over. If you do not do this step the display of the scores
- as well as the score file itself will be all messed up. So if you get
- a strange score file display you need to delete it and start over. I
- added the time to the score displays.
-
- Version 5.2. The score file format has changed again, but it will work
- okay without erasing it. I just colorized the players' names inside
- the program and the 5.1 score file contains periods in the user's
- name. It is suggested that if you are using an earlier version to
- erase the score file from inside the program.
-
- Much internal updates besides many of the displays. The background on
- the exit screen is not the users' background color. Looks better. Key
- presses are now highlighted making them easier to understand. Overall
- the program should be more colorful.
-
- Also added HUCKABEY.TXT to the archive so that it now contains a
- current list of all my software, which users can get directly from
- me. Added an ACHIVE.TXT so users know what the archive should and
- should not contain.
-
- Version 5.3. Continued with program enhancements. The score file has
- changed so it is suggested that you erase it (from menu) and start over,
- but it will work as is. The score file as displayed in the program is
- now fully colorized making it much more pleasing. The user's name now
- blinks if they make the top ten. This makes it easier for the user to
- find their place in the display.
-
- Version 5.4. Continued with program enhancements. Corrected some minor
- errors. Added CRAZY.DOC to the archive for a little more detail on
- running the program if it is needed. Changed the sound to default OFF.
- You now have to turn the sound ON if you want sound effects. This was
- to keep it quit for those that might not want sound.
