=============================================================================
= 5.13 10-25-92
=============================================================================
Ñ In prior versions, selecting new fileSets from the 'Find...' dialog
eventually caused a crash. I incorrectly blamed this on my routine
which created a new fileset on the fly. This bug has now been fixed.
Ñ Added '-f' option to 'launch'.
Ñ 'sortLines' is now non-recursive.
=============================================================================
= 5.12 10-24-92
=============================================================================
Ñ Added 'wordBreak' variable which allows customization of the definition
of a word.
Ñ Regularized the syntax of 'bind' somewhat; keycode bindings work again.
Ñ In 5.11, the shell didn't execute commands in the global context.
therefore 'set' commands, for instance, didn't work correctly. This has
been fixed.
Ñ Wrote a 'sortLines' proc (look in 'procs.tcl') and in the "Convert" menu.
Ñ "Temporary mark" bug fixed.
=============================================================================
= 5.11 10-13-92
=============================================================================
Ñ Changed 'edit' and 'fileMenu' syntax. I apologise for this, especially
for 'fileMenu', but there were compelling reasons...
Ñ Cleaned up 'listBindings'.
Ñ Added 'ascii' form of bindings.
Ñ Support for MPW shell via ToolServer and AppleEvents (look at the
'Misc' menu.
Ñ Fixed bug in handling 'dosc' responses.
Ñ Added Tcl access to search and replace strings.
Ñ There is no longer a 256 key binding limit.
Ñ Cleaned up keyboard macros a bit. Searching while recording a keyboard
macro now compiles settings directly into the macro.
Ñ 'getPathName' is now 'insertPathName'.
Ñ New function 'getPathName' returns selected pathname.
=============================================================================
= 5.1 10-10-92
=============================================================================
Ñ 'sortRange' is now gone.
Ñ Assorted fixes and minor changes to routines in 'procs.tcl' and
'AlphaBits.tcl.
Ñ The 'dumpMacro' routine is back.
Ñ The 'describeBinding' is back.
Ñ Print margins are changeable.
Ñ Locked files handled better.
Ñ Added function 'rowColToPos' and 'posToRowCol'.
Ñ Added function 'launchApp'.
Ñ Added the ability to re-execute previous shell commands by positioning
the cursor on a previous commandline and hitting the return key.
Ñ Added 'dosc' call that allows scripts to be send to a remote server
(such as Apple's ToolServer or another copy of Alpha), executed, and
the result returned.
Ñ Alpha now handles both 'typeChar' and 'typeAlias' forms of the 'dosc'
Apple Event and so can now be used as a server.
=============================================================================
= 5.05 9-5-92
=============================================================================
Ñ Fixed routines in "procs.tcl" so that the correct menu item is hilighted.
Ñ The fonts and tabs dialog now has the default size filled in.
Ñ Key bindings can now be associated with a specific mode.
Ñ Support for arbitrary control-character prefixes has been added. As
part of this, *modifier strings must be all lowercase, except for the
control-character prefixes*.
Ñ Cosmetic fix to 'changeMode' proc.
Ñ 'fileMenu's now correctly work as heirarchical menus.
=============================================================================
= 5.04 9-1-92
=============================================================================
Ñ The 5.03 distribution had a bad fileset in procs.tcl. Also, the find
routine didn't check for bad filesets, so...
Ñ Support for the C-x prefix has been dropped.
=============================================================================
= 5.03 8-28-92
=============================================================================
Ñ Added popup menus in SaveAs dialog.
Ñ Allow window size, position, selection to be saved.
Ñ Changed fileMenus to include a home directory and read-only flag.
Ñ Removed "Open directly" menu since the help menu now serves the same
purpose.
Ñ Removed procs that opened up individual help files
=============================================================================
= 5.02 8-22-92
=============================================================================
Ñ Got rid of 'prefixChar' and thus key bindings in the style of emacs's
c-x c-s.
Ñ Minor indentation fix to 'carriageReturn' tcl proc.
Ñ Fixed 'prevWIndow' proc.
Ñ Fixed popup menu hilighting, as well as the lack of default choices.
Ñ Added Alpha var 'funcPar' back, so tex section menu works again.
Ñ Added func 'addFileset' to provide a way of creating filesets on the
fly. Be careful w/ this, as it does somehow cause a bomb if used often.
=============================================================================
= 5.01 8-20-92
=============================================================================
Ñ Fixed bombs in initialization (looking for menu that no longer exists),
and in the search routine.
Ñ All dialogs that use popup menus now conform to HIS.
Ñ Switched command equivalents for "File:Open Selection" and "Edit:Redo"
back to their old values.
Ñ The first and last characters in files can now be searched for.
