How MicroCook has evolved..............
Version 1.2 - Released as shareware in September 1993.
Original version.
Version 1.3 - Released as shareware in November 1993.
* Increased the capacity from 900 to about 2000 recipes per
database. (Free RAM dependent.)
* Added possibility to edit the recipes as they are imported.
* Added Loading by recipe numbers, and displaying the recipe
numbers in the Index listing.
* Added Sort while in the Index.
* Added variable width of the MC ASCII Export files. This is for
BBS's where page width is narrower than 78 characters.
* Added Status window where the number of recipes there are still
room for in the current database is listed. Also free disk
space is displayed.
* Added an option in Setup to disable Index Sort during editing
and Index load.
* Added option to append to or overwrite existing files during
Exports.
* Added more options for recipe selection for export.
* Added an option in Setup to chose between 12 or 24 hour clock.
* Fixed bug that locked up MicroCook on exit when used on PC's
with 8088 CPU and CGA monitors.
(Bobby F. on GEnie received FREE registration for reporting the
CGA lockup bug).
* Changed some color combinations that was hard to see on low
resolution CGA monitors.
* Added a few screen savers, just for the fun of it.
* Fixed bug that would mess up the default directory if MCOOK was
entered as a directory in the PATH in AUTOEXEC.BAT
* Fixed bug so MicroCook will work in OS/2.
(Casey H. on CIS received FREE registration for reporting the
OS/2 bug).
* Plus improved and changed many small things here and there.....
Version 1.34 - Released as shareware in March 1994
* Added option to remove blank lines between recipes when
printing recipes.
* Added option in the Index to type in first letter of recipe
name or category to move quickly to a recipe.
* Added "Delete This Recipe" menu function while recipe is
displayed in the editors.
* Added option in Setup to turn off Chimes and Beeps.
* Fixed bug that could cause PC to hang when exiting MicroCook.
* Fixed bug that started Screen Saver prematurely.
* Added option to purchase an additional recipes when
registering (See ASSORTED.TXT).
* Added support for Meal-Master(TM) 8.0 and MMCONV 1.60
ASCII Import.
* Added option to set newly created database as active.
* Added option to select more files after an Import.
* Plus a few more small fixes and improvements.
Version 1.35 - Maintenance release April 1994
NOTE: These changes/add-on's are not in the manual - yet.
* Improved Meal-Master Imports. Should now be able to handle most
of the MM ASCII formats.
(Florence F. on GEnie received FREE registration for reporting
some MM Import problems).
* Added option to have Recipe Names automatic capitalized. If ON,
only the first letter in each word will be converted to upper
case while the remaining letters are converted to lower case.
This will work both in the editor and during all the imports.
This option can be turned on or off in Setup.
Version 1.36 - Maintenance release June 1994
* Fixed bug in Index Sort. When sorting after either Index View
or Disk View, the main index array got "scrambled". It also
required a new search since the search array was cleared.
(Scott M. on Internet received a FREE registration for
reporting this bug).
Version 1.37 - Maintenance release September 1994
* Fixed bug in "Recipe Not saved" warning window. When 'F' was
selected to bypass recipe save, the Edited flag did not reset.
Plus fixed a some other minor "blemishes".
Also added printing of the manual directly from Print Menu, and
printing of the registration form. This last function is ONLY
visible when the KEY file can't be found in the directory with
MCOOK.EXE. (Terry M. on AOL had this idea. Thanks.)
Many of these additions and improvements were suggestions from
MicroCook users. So it help to "complain", plus it might result
in a FREE registration if the bug has not been reported before.
Together WE can make MicroCook better!
