GPaper 1.0 04/24/91 Original release.
GPaper 2.0 04/27/91 Lots of changes in just a few days. The big
change is that this version is written in
Turbo Pascal 6.0. GPAPER will now create an ANSI
and ASCii file with ".SCR" as the ANSI extension
and ".BBS" as the ASCii extension. I chose these
as they are the defaults for WILDCAT! BBS. (#1)
The command line undergoes a small change in that
you no longer put an extension after the file that
you want to create. The default file is still
named GPAPER and it will have the proper extension
added to it. GPAPER will now abort gracefully
when it encounters an error.
Gpaper 3.0 05/05/91 GPaper will now look for an environment variable.
This will allow the sysop to setup Gpaper for his
individual BBS type. GPaper will then add the
correct file extensions to the output files. The
user interface has been improved immensely (IMHO).
If an error is encountered, GPaper will exit with
an errorlevel 1.
GPaper 4.0 06/11/91 GPaper will now create a file using "@" codes for
Wildcat! 3.0. It will create a file with a .BBS
extension. WC! 3.0 strips out these codes for
ASCii callers and sends color for ANSI callers.
GPaper 4.1 08/11/91 Added the ability to change the 'BAR' color to a
color besides green. Now supports BLUE, BLACK,
RED, MAGENTA, CYAN, YELLOW and GREEN. Add it as
the third parameter on the command line. It is
"CASE" sensitive so be sure to capitalize it.
GPaper 4.2 08/18/91 The third parameter (color) is no longer case sen-
sitive and will accept mixed letters.
EX: GreEn, MAGenTa, magenta
All of these will work.
GPaper 4.3 01/23/92 Changed the 'look' of the output file. Got rid of
the "|" on the sides and replaced it with "│".
IMHO, this looks more like paper. <G>
GPaper 5.0 02/24/92 Gpaper now supports PCBoard color codes. The
environment variable of "PCB" must be set for it
to work properly. Gpaper will still default to
WC! settings (How else?) if the proper "SET"
statement is not added. made a few minor
adjustments to the code to speed it up a bit.
GPaper 5.1 05/25/92 Fixed GPaper so that it will NOW create the ANSI
and ASCii screens that are not WC!3.x or PCB
specific. <blush> Guess I didn't do enough
testing. Changed the Copyright lines at the end
of the file from WHITE to GRAY. This just makes
them a bit more unnoticable.
GPaper 5.2 06/02/92 Found another bug in GP when it tried to create an
ANSI and ASCii file when there was no enviornment
variable. Move the ANSI clear screen to the ANSI
file instead of the ASCii file. Don't need the
sucker there. <G>
GPaper 5.3 10/30/92 If the path exceeded 15 characters, Gpaper was not
printing out the entire path on the screen. It
was just an appearance change.
