- 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
- sensitive 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 unnoticeable.
-
- 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 environment
- 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.
-
- GPaper 5.32 1/1/94 Minor appearance changes.
-
- Gpaper 5.40 3/23/94 Added support for Synchronet BBS special color
- codes. The environment variable for this setup is
- "SYN".
-
- Gpaper 5.50 1/1/95 Added support to SearchLight special color codes.
- The environment variable is "SL". Special Thanks
- to Richard Lis of Summitt SearchLight BBS in
- Cresson, PA for his invaluable help.
