Apollo version history
======================
31st December 1991: v0.7b2 release (0.7b1 not released)
• Eagle v1.0 introduced
• includes application switching menu & keyboard switching
• supports control panels and folders under system 7
(with a little help from Eagle)
• popup menu appears more rapidly when menu structure is complex
• much improved configure dialog (again):
- app & da dialogs merged: control panel and folder options added
- "build group" option added (not folders)
- popup menus everywhere!
• holding down option key when choosing "Other application…" now
allows selection of a document for the new application
• Finder and MultiFinder now treated as applications,
so can be included in menu and launched (no documents, though)
• more robust handling of very low memory situations (was causing
crashes, particularly with DarkSide)
• much better handling of aliases
• automatic menu drop-down added (ugh!)
• active areas in menu bar can now extend right into corners:
optional, as this causes problems with some other extensions
and screen savers when auto drop-down enabled
• bug fixes:
• now doesn't give error -192 when DA file is lost
and then found again
• conflict with Nisus macros & top-left corner fixed
• problem with Finder not saving window positions or
emptying trash under uniFinder fixed
• group names longer than 31 characters now rejected:
used to cause crashes
• launches under pre-7 systems when DA is active now work
• fixed (or rather worked around) a problem which caused crashes
when certain applications (Red Ryder and QUED/M) were frontmost
• fixed problems when moving items from a deleted group when
items with the same name were already in the main menu
• fixed problem with document list in configure dialog when app
with document list was selected and moved to another group and
the same app then added to the main menu (didn't happen very often!)

• now compiled under THINK C 5
• better handling of low memory launches under system 7
• documents from an app's submenu now opened if app already running
• optional icon at left of menu bar
• active area at top left made larger
• configure dialog changed to show groups under applications:
also made more responsive
• proper handling of DAs under system 7
• nicer About box
• groups can be renamed
• bug fixes:
• now works on Mac Plus/Classic under system 6

• menus with same IDs as Apollo's lost colour info: now don't
• standard file current directory settings improved
• groups and apps having the same name and app added after group
• active rectangle in top right corner without icon there
• aliases now resolved before launching
• problem when item moved from group to main menu was new last
item in main menu
