File List | 1996-10-07 | 22KB | 415 lines

1.7.1
  - Added new editor and menu help.
  - New fft() library function.
1.7.0
  - Added option of turning off the bracket match part of syntax colouring
    to the syntax colouring configuration notebook.
  - If a preprocessor line is changed then it will now appear in the changed
    colour.
  - For files that have lines loger than 256 chars syntax colouring is now
    automatically turned off.
  - Many internal changes to accomodate Win95 version.
1.6.9
  - If there are more than 10 datasets with the ALL_Y parameter to plotdata()
    splot now generates an error rather than crashing.
1.6.8
  - Added optional comment colouring to the editor.
  - plotdata() and drawdata() modified to accept the value of -1 or
    ALL_Y for the ycol value which causes all the columns to be plotted.
1.6.7
  - Editor changes up to level 2.7.1 including comment colouring.
  - If the size of the graphics window is changed the bitmap copy of the
    screen is now deleted to force a complete redraw.
  - On a clear screen any previously draw rubber box is deleted. This prevents
    ghost boxes appearing later.
1.6.6
  - If source line is too long an error message is generated rather than
    crashing. A factor of two is left for the line to grow due to macro
    expansion.
  - Fixed memory free problem with arraydup() function.
1.6.5
  - Drawing a box with the mouse when the shift key is down causes an
    immediate box zoom to that box.
1.6.4
  - Right clicking on a draw or slib menu item once again opens a help dialog
    on that item.
  - If things are drawn using trace only mode then entries are now made in the
    buffer which allows right mouse clicking on a graphics object.
  - Added a smooth(); function to allow n point smoothing of a column of data.
  - The interpreter now internally defines CURFILENAME to be a quoted string
    containing the current file name of the file executing.
  - The abox(); function can now be called without any parameters resulting
    in a default size axis box centered on the page.
  - Ctrl Shift accelerator combinations are now recognized without
    relying on character case so that now if caps lock is on the control
    keys still work as expected without additional shifts.
  - The copy of the graphics screen is now stored as a bitmap and this
    allows the screen to be redrawn instantaneously if nothing has changed.
  - Added arraydup(); built in function to duplicate an existing array.
  - Graphics put on the clipboard is now in bitmap form as well as in metafile
    form.
  - Finally added a bitmap output option.
  - If more than 7 data sets are simultaneously plotted using plotdata(); or
    drawdata(); the colours repeat. This avoids drawing a dataset with white.
  - Fixed problem with closepath(); in association with scale changes.
  - If the name of a data view file is changed and then saved it will now
    have line breaks.
  - On using the command line rename command the file time is set to
    the current time to avoid problems with erroneous newer file exists
    warnings if a file of same name already exists.
  - Before allowing a file name change using the rename command the name
    is tested to see if a file of this name already exists and if so a
    confirm dialog is displayed.
1.6.3
  - plotdata() now properly sets the flags for ticks and labels set.
  - Sopt items are in capitals again and the Const menu is also
    in capitals again and has the right number of items after I
    screwed this up starting with 1.6.0. The draw menu now has 3 columns.
  - drawdata() routine may now also have more than one data array.
  - plotdata() and ascale() routines now takes into account any XSCALE, YMULT
    etc. factors before determining a suitable scale.
  - Enhanced plotdata() routine so that it may accepts more than one data
    array to plot. Scale is set to max of all the data sets.
  - Added rand() and srand() library functions.
  - Improvements to the auto scale, auto tickmark and auto tick label
    routines to give nicer end points and tick locations for cases that
    were not handled well before.
1.6.2
  - Loading files from the command line with a wildcard in the filename
    now works properly.
  - Fixed problem with interpreter recursive function calls which caused
    it to lose its local variables.
  - Work around for a compiler bug which caused a crash if a function call
    happened to be on a 4K page boundary.
  - Changes to interpreter have increased the stack space required by recursive
    descent parser. Changes to parser to keep this to a minimum.
1.6.1
  - Graphics in metafile format can now be put on clipboard.
  - Finally added a metafile output option.
  - Fixed problems with eps file dashed lines.
1.6.0
  - Fixed problem that sometimes caused filled symbols in the eps output
    file to have the wrong colour.
  - The == and != op now have lower precedence than the relational ops as
    called for by the ANSI standard.
  - Constant expression reducer has been removed. This was slow and
    caused too much grief. Onus is on the user to reduce constant expressions.
  - sizeof() function can now handle a pointer.
  - Aggregate array initialization now conforms to the ANSI standard.
  - printf(), sprintf() etc. now handle unsigned types.
  - No longer crashes on assignment to null pointer. Prints error instead.
  - Fixed problem with a = b = c; if type conversion required.
  - Added reset menu option to exec menu. Causes includes to be reread.
  - No longer crashes when displaying vars initialized using a literal string.
  - The puts and printf library routines now recognize \n.
  - Sucessive string tokens are now concatenated as required by ANSI standard.
  - Strings are no longer limited to 80 characters.
  - Fixed integer promotion rules to conform to ANSI standard.
  - Added recognition of constant type specifiers as in 10u.
  - Added duplicate variable checking for local and global vars. For
    globals conflicts are only dectected for the first run after startup.
  - Added local,global and defined variable dialogs.
  - Fixed obscure bug that sometimes caused cterp to erroneously believe
    that a function definition was a prototype depending on the function name.
  - Added execution break to interperter.
  - Added breakpoint and single step capability. Need to set up keys using
    macros or key mapping.
  - Right shift assignments as in x >>= 2; now perform right shifts rather
    than left shifts.
1.5.9
  - Added the strcmp() library function.
1.5.8
  - Editor revisions to level 2.6.6 see editor revision.lst
1.5.7
  - If an output readonly file's name is changed and then saved it now
    has carriage returns appended to each line for subsequent editing.
  - Printing now happens in the plot thread rather than the editor
    thread so that the input queue should not longer be blocked when
    composing the page for the printer.
  - Double clicking on a printer name in the printers dialog should now
    select that printer.
  - An #include filename enclosed in quotes or #defined is now prepended
    with paths from the config include_path if not found in the current dir.
  - If an #include file calls another #include and an error occurs
    the right filename now appears in the error message.
  - Preprocessor can now handle an include in the form #include FILE
    where FILE has been previously defined (#define FILE file.h).
  - If on a duplicate file warning the load is cancelled the editor
    now makes the existing file of that name the current one provided
    no other new files have been loaded.
  - Fixed non functional regular expression searches with bracketed
    sub expressions.
  - Fixed problem with transferring edits across a fold in the case
    of inserting a line(s) right below the top of file marker.
  - The changed state of a line is now properly kept track of across folds.
1.5.6
  - When readdata or epsfile is selected from the draw menu and a file name
    choosen the leading quote is now positioned properly.

  - Fixed eps file creation crash recently introduced.
1.5.3
  - Added semaphores to prevent the use reset etc. in the misc menu while
    the figure is being drawn.
  - Fixed problem with rubber box noticable when text window is narrower than
    plot window.
  - Fixed zoom and panning functions so that scroll bar is at right place.

  - Eps files now retain colour information rather than converting to grey.
  - Sundry editor changes. Refer to editor revision.lst
  - Splot can now also read in floating point numbers with a D rather than an E
    for the exponent. This makes reading FORTRAN generated ouput possible.
1.5.1
  - Sundry editor changes. Refer to editor revision.lst
  - Fixed problem with standard lib function printf() when printing just a
    single fixed string.
1.5.0

    already there.
  - Fixed hang caused by trying to close a path not started with a moveto()
    with closepath();
1.4.7
  - Added functions max() and min() to standard library.
1.4.6
  - Added "trace only" toggle to "misc" menu. When on the drawing is made using
    only single pixel wide lines without a pattern. This greatly speeds up
    drawing.
1.4.5
  - Coordinate pairs are again grouped using spaces as in 1.3.9
  - Fixed non-functional fitline function which was wrecked during some recent
    change.
1.4.4
  - Fixed problem printing to other than first printer in printer list
    appears to have been a problem only with Warp.
  - Fixed problem with constant #define expression reducer involving functions.
    The function brackets are no longer removed if argument reduces to integer.
  - Fixed problem with constant #define expression reducer involving bracketed
    components in multiplicative and additive expressions.
1.4.3
  - Fixed serious problem introduced in version 1.4.1 with eps output file
    containing symbols. These were not properly translated for the margin.
  - Bracketed filled symbols in eps output with gsave grestore pair so that
    previously unstroked paths are not filled.
  - more editor changes see editor revision.lst
1.4.2
  - The preprocessed file is no longer shown upon an error but it is still
    appended to the error list.
  - If an error occurs the file name also appears in the error message.
  - If an error occured in an include file the reported line number is no
    longer zero.
  - The "done" dialog no longer appears if there was program output.
  - Preprocessor can now handle #if !FLAG as well as #if FLAG. More complex
    preprocessor expressions still not handled but atleast an error message
    is now generated.
1.4.1
  - Further changes to eps file output format so that they can be read by
    Adobe Illustrator. In particular it no longer contains the scale or
    translate statements.
1.4.0
  - Fixed the auto generate tick labels routine so it does something reasonable
    with log axes.
  - Changed alineto() so that it no longer generates an error if there was
    no previous line. Instead a horizontal line from left to right is assumed
    ending at the current point.
  - Major changes to preprocessor in particular the constant integer expression
    reducer which had problems with some expressions.
  - Fixed bug in complex #define macro processing.
  - Removed "0 0 m" from eps initialization string since this is outside
    the bounding box and causes problems with some programs.
  - Added ':' to end of %%BoundingBox statement in order to match standard.
  - Multiple semi-colon separated include paths may now be set up in the
    config menu. First sucessful match terminates search.
1.3.9
  - Mischellaneous editor changes.
  - Added optional parameter to readdata() function which causes the
    file information to be read into a single dimension array.
  - Interpreter now handles function prototypes without complaining.
  - Fixed crash caused by feeding long lines to tokenizer part of interpreter.
  - Coordinate pairs entered by double clicking are now separated by blanks
    to make pair groupings easier to determine.
  - Added a partial implementation of enums to interpreter.
1.3.8
  - Fixed recently introduced bug which caused set options and other pop up
    windows to close immediately.
  - Changed clear() function so that all drawable elements are also erased.
  - Added epsfile() function.
  - Fixed command line format problem when zooming text window to full screen.
  - Fixed bug which made the second file in the start up file list the initial
    current file rather than the first one if key mapping was on.
1.3.7
  - Draw items drop down menu is now 3 columns.
  - Added rcurveto() and rsplineto() for completness.
  - Function help text window now gets the initial focus. This means that
    it can be scrolled with PageUp/Down.
  - Width of lines is now affected by scale() settings.
  - Added flexibility of array parameter type to lineto, arrowto,
    splineto and curveto as well as the relative counter parts.
  - Added splineto(); drawing function. This function accepts a list of two
    or more coordinate pairs and then draws a cubic spline which goes through
    all of the given coordinates. It uses Bezier curves internally but
    calculates the necessary control points in order to make the derivative
    continous everywhere.
  - Increased accuracy of value of Pi used internally.
1.3.6
  - Mischellaneous changes to the editor part of splot.
1.3.5
  - The ALT W keystroke now writes the currently marked region to the file
    "editblck.tmp".
  - ALT S rather than ALT W is now used for folding to show all lines
    containing the current search string.
  - ALT J and ALT S are no longer equivalent to CTRL J and CTRL K
    respectively. If you are addicted to these assignments set up a key
    mapping.
  - Quiting current file now causes previous file to become active rather
    than the next file. Restores behaviour to pre version 1.3.4
1.3.4
  - Modified behaviour of the system calls initiated with "os string".
    These are now single threaded in order for predictable use in macros.
    System calls initiated without the leading "os" are still multi threaded.
  - If $EDNAME appears in a command to be sent to the OS it is
    replaced with the name of the file.
  - Fixed problem with endkey if end of text scrolled off to the left.
  - Fixed scroll button bug introduced in v1.3.3.
  - Cursor movement with the shift key down now causes the traversed region
    to be ALTN marked (standard marking).
  - Moving the scroll bars, no matter how rapidly, to their end stops now
    always causes the corresponding end of the file to be visible.
  - Using the vertical scroll bar no longer resets horizontal cursor
    position to first column.
  - Double clicking on the system menu (or ALT F4) now quits application
    rather than just closing the current file.
  - Fixed problem with crash after ALTL, ALTD and then ctrl insert.
  - It is no longer possible to paste to read only files with shift insert.
1.3.3
  - Redirected stderr to an editor file.
  - Made location of cursor after conventional return more conventional.
  - Removed extra space caused by backspacing to the previous line.
1.3.2
   - Text size limits in all dialog boxes increased.
   - Optional lone alt key access to menu bar (turned on in config).
   - Editor scroll bars now work if key mapping is on.
   - A new check box has been added to the misc page of the config notebook.
     This check box allows conventional (non 'e') return key behaviour.
   - Backspace now wraps up to previous line if it reaches beginning of
     the current line.
1.3.1
   - Paste from clipboard is now active in editor dialog boxes and command line.
   - Clipboard operations can be included in keystroke macros.
   - Backtab now works.
   - Fixed clipboard problem with increasing number of line feeds.
   - If new lines are added in the middle of a marked region they are now
     also marked.
   - It is no longer necessary to restart editor in order to start key
     mapping after it is selected from config dialog.
1.3.0
   - Added snap coordinates to a grid capability as well as display
     grid capability.
   - Added owner draw flag to directory listbox so file dialogs now have
     standard appearance.
1.2.9
   - Added quick search dir reversal to editor.
   - Added Redo? option to editor search and replace confirmation dialog.
   - Fixed editor cursor not blinking with white background.
   - Added 8 more editor foreground colours. Editor background colours are
     still however limited to 8 due to implementation details.
   - Added new function to built in function library called 'arraydim()'
     which returns the array dimension or number of elements for ith dimension.
1.2.8
   - Tickmarks when explicitly set using the tickmarks() command now have the
     current line style. This allows dashed or dotted grid lines to be created.
   - C interpreter can now handle #included code as well as definitions. This
     allows a custom library of functions to be built and included.
1.2.7
   - C interpreter can now handle the type short as well as the type modifiers
     unsigned and signed.
   - Fixed "while expected" problem with do-while loops.
   - Editor skips leading blanks on line split even when auto indent is off.
   - Corrected help on trig functions which incorrectly stated that angles are
     in degrees.
1.2.6
   - Removed "ne" line from eps header. This caused problems in Ami Pro.
   - Selecting "readdata" from menu now automatically opens a file dialog.
   - Fixed problem with occasional zeros when inserting relative coords.
   - Added editor region marking using mouse buttons.
   - Made editor scrolling using scroll bars smoother.

   - Changed printer margins slightly.
1.2.4
   - Made small circles in .eps file somewhat less "flat"
   - Changed flatness parameter to be 10 times old flatness parameter
   - Fixed infinite loop problem with loop search option.
   - Fixed autowrap off by one indentation problem.
   - Made the for loop syntax more flexible allowing empty fields as well as
     multiple comma separated expressions as allowed in 'C'
   - Fixed interpreter problem with a series of additions as in i = i + 2 + 3;
1.2.3
   - Third type of region marking added to editor.
   - If coord match is on highlighting an axes box using the 2nd mouse button
     will now automatically match the corresponding axes coordinates.
   - Fixed interpreter problem with multiple assignments as in i = j = 2;
   - Fixed interpreter problem with bracketed assignments as in i + (j = 3);
1.2.2
   - Editor help functional again outside of main splot directory
   - after previous attempts to remove environment var dependence.
   - Extended DOS version brought up to date.
1.2.1
   - Removed remaining environment var dependence. Should
     find fonts now even if splot dir is not \splot.
1.2.0
