Release Notes

This page outlines the changes the text has gone through.

1.0h (September 26, 1995)

Whew! Completed the "real" version.

0.93h (September 20, 1995)

Tightened up the manuscript by eliminating items I hadn't really reviewed. Broke out a few sections and many mini-tables of contents throughout; basically followed my own readability, browsability, searchability guidelines. Add the version number to the TOC so people would know that this is not finished yet. Changed the TITLE of the TOC so when people link to this page it saves a pretty name. (I'm running out of version numbers.)

0.92h (September 13, 1995)

Changed out TR-WWW and inserted AppleSearch for the searching feature. This also eliminated the FORM at the bottom of every page ( :-( )

0.91h (September 12, 1995)

Added David Cherry's dogs.

0.9h (September 11, 1995)

Added the condensed TOC. Broke down and used more Netscapisms. "Finished" the CGI section. Added See also references. Moved larger Appendixes to new folder to see whether or not that fixed TR-WWW (May move to AppleSearch).

0.76h (August 23, 1995)

Added the bibliography.

0.75h (August 21, 1995)

Did bunches o' stuff: added many many reviews, started the CGI section, enhanced the TOC, shorten all the pages for better viewing, removed the "graphics page" (it was an idea that didn't take off), removed the references to browsers of other platforms as well as servers of other platforms, added character codes appendix.
