***** HISTORY *****
AColor 1.0 02/18/91 Initial Release
AColor 2.0 03/08/91 Added the ability to add ANSI color to the
background by using the /B switch after the
filename. Modified the help screen so that it
looked a lot better and is easier to understand.
AColor 2.1 03/09/91 Added the ability to abort the colorization
process at any time by pressing 'F10'.
AColor 2.5 03/11/91 You can now choose the color background that you
prefer. I figured that some may like that option
instead of the "Coat of Many Colors" option.
AColor 3.0 03/12/91 Hopefully this will be the last version with major
changes for a while. I got started on this and
got involved totally. This version allows the
user to choose what foreground color they want.
The switches have also been changed from a single
letter "/B" to a format easier to understand.
"/BLUE". AColor now uses four (4) line switches.
The first one is the filename to be colorized. The
second switch is the BACKGROUND color and the
third is the FOREGROUND color. Switch four is for
those SysOps out there that want to personalize
the ANSI file.
AColor 3.1 04/08/91 Tweaked the code just a bit to speed things up.
AColor 3.2 04/24/91 AColor now truncates the length of the text line
to 77 columns. I did this to prevent the wrapping
of text and causing the output file to be
irregular.
Acolor 4.0 05/27/91 AColor was rewritten in Turbo Pascal 6.0 to make
the EXE file smaller and faster. Also the
appearance of the user screen is much nicer. Also
added the ability to set an environment variable
to allow AColor to be compatible with several BBS
systems. Lots of other changes too numerous to
mention here. Check the documentation before
using ACOLOR.
AColor 5.0 06/21/91 Updated AColor to work with Wildcat! 3.0. Also
changed the SET command to SET ACOLOR=. The SET
command for Wildcat! 3.0 is SET ACOLOR=WC3. This
will allow AColor to create a .BBS file with the
'@' codes for WC!3.0.
AColor 5.1 01/23/92 Very minor changes to the 'user' screen. Changed
the Copyright date in program.
AColor 6.0 02/23/92 Added PCBoard Color code support to this release.
The environment variable of "PCB" must be used to
get the special color codes. You may do this in
your AUTOEXEC.BAT by placing the statement "SET
ACOLOR=PCB" in it.
AColor 6.2 10/30/92 Fixed a small appearance defect.
AColor 6.21 1/23/93 Added a 286 compiled version. It's a wee bit
smaller than the regular version. This release is
also compiled using Borland Turbo Pascal 7.0.
Thanks for trying out AColor and I hope you can get some use out of
ACOLOR.
