Added Editor. First version to use MULTUSE generic BBS translator
interface. Used Drew Olbrich's Comm Routines.
1.2 1-88
Reorganisation, bug fixes.
1.3 7-88
Added <b>rief planet listings. Known to have intermittent hangs well
after game running.. blows away game. SYSOPs upset. Never found

2.00 5-89 (beta)
First version in TP 5....
Used Generic Toolbox routines.
Bugs in Comm routines due to switch to 5.0
2.01 7-89 (beta)
Switched to TP 5.5
Added configuration parameters for empires, battles, map size.

Finally got Fossil working during this period, no new version.
2.02 10-06-89 (beta)

2.03 10-25-89 (release)
Got all comm routines working. No known bugs! Added config for plague.
Added rank file override and sysop initial message config parms.
2.04 11-24-89 (release)
Fixed some bugs discovered in plague routines.
These were very minor but I decided to bump release #
2.05 2-12-90 (release)
Finally tracked down a very serious bug in the Emergency Exit area
that was hanging systems etc... was due to the Gen_EP_Exit proc variable
getting clobbered by a bogus string copy. SizeOf(string) does NOT
return the number of bytes in a string... it's one more for the len byte!
Introduced a bug by turning off Boolean Expression short circuiting,
turned it back on because I have a dependency on it.
