VIEWPIX UPDATES
02/12/92 - Initial release.
02/14/92 - v1.6 -Fixed bug in GIF file listing routines.
-Fixed array dimensioning overflow error.
02/15/92 - v1.7 -Added configuration options.
-Fixed code that returns DOS errorlevel.
-Made calls to DSZ external through BAT files.
02/15/92 - v1.8 -Added check for free space on work drive.
-Updated doc file to include the text about adding
set gifdesk=file line to AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
-Cosmetic changes.
02/24/92 - v1.9 -fixed bug in filename input routine. Door would
sometimes crash when users entered filenames without
marking them first.
02/25/92 - v1.9A -added better configuration checking.
02/25/92 - v1.9B -added options in VIEWPIX.CNF (config file) to allow
for non-standard com port setups. Sysops can include
port #, IRQ, IOBase address, parity, and stop bits to
config file if so needed. Here's the way the config
file would look:
Standard Setup (no weird com stuff) Non-Standard Setup

NONE <-this has been added # <- Port number
since docs were written # <- IRQ number
#### <-IOBase address (decimal only!)
# <- parity (0 = NO parity)
# <- data bits (8 = normal)
02/25/92 - v1.9C -fixed a small problem (not really a bug) in the
error trapping routine. Door will now properly exit
back to BBS if program error occurs.
02/28/92 - v1.9D -optimized the code a bit. Was told the above port
addressing actually works! (a programming 1st for me).
02/29/92 - v1.9E -maintenance release. I forgot to turn on the door's
error checking routines. Dressed up configuration
screen a bit.
03/05/92 - v1.9F -ViewPix sometimes "loses it's place" and can't find
its way back to the directory from which it's being
executed. Added routines to fix this problem.
