Version 2.0 Released 11/15/93
Eliminated the accumulation of temporary files for users who lack
sufficient extended or expanded memory for memory swapping, while
retaining support for multiple users on a network. Added the use of
environment variable LR_SWAP (if set) for specifying the swap file
(if needed).
If LR_SWAP not set, it creates a single swap file named LEGROOM.$$$,
located in the TEMP subdirectory of the directory in which LegRoom
is installed. In version 1.0 created a unique, new swap file each
time LegRoom was loaded.
Automatically deletes prior swap file (if any) on being loaded.
Version 1.0 deleted only swap files which are at least two days old.
Version 2.0 also deletes the swap file on being unloaded.
Added prompt to type EXIT to return to the prior application. Under
DOS 3.0 and up, it gives the name of the application from which you
shelled out. The new prompt is active while shelled to DOS via
LegRoom. The prior prompt is restored on typing EXIT.
Added save/restore of active character set.
Stopped blinking certain screen attributes on restoring foreground
application.
Made more robust on Netware networks, when shelling from large
applications.
Fixed behavior on Hercules video adapters so it properly restores
the screen after popping up while in graphic mode.
Pass on the environment prevailing when LegRoom is loaded, rather than the
master environment. In version 1.0, if used in Windows or DesqView, the
environment variables set within that environment were not inherited on
shelling to DOS. In version 2.0, such variables are available to
COMMAND.COM on shelling to DOS or to a triggered application if using the
/R= switch.
