- updates:
-
- Version 1.1.0, has added system time and date displayed at the bottom
-
- of each text page. Also if you have MCGA, CGA, EGA, or VGA display adapters
-
- you can make use of the hi resolution graphics Periodic Table drawing.
-
- ++++++++
-
- Version 1.2.0, has corrected an undocumented problem with detection of
-
- EGA and VGA monitors in BIOS. An abort exit option has been added for user
-
- convenience.
-
- +++++++++
-
- Version 2.0.0, has corrected a defect in the element listing to include
-
- the correct atomic number for Uranium. Also this version has incorporated the
-
- use of the ESC and F10 Keys for previous page and quitting the program re-
-
- spectively. This update reflects a change in the ZIP code for Enchanted
-
- Tree Software.
-
- +++++++++
-
- Version 3.0.0, has updated and new data added to the periodic table and
-
- to the Pop-Up Graphics periodic table. It has also enhanced the user interface
-
- in minor but useful ways. This version also, to our regret, incorporates some
-
- limitations. It will only access data on elements with atomic numbers from 1
-
- to 53. The registered version will access data on all 118 elements.
-
- We regret this action, but it seems that it is the only way that we will
-
- be paid for any of our programming on this product. It seems that we have been
-
- getting letters and phone calls from many people regarding this product,
-
- but very few orders.
-
- This action, though punishing the honest minority, will keep the dishonest
-
- majority more honest.
-
- +++++++++
-
- Version 3.1.0, was updated to add color and more graphics adapters to the
-
- supported graphics section. It also fixes a bug in the non-graphics menu area.
-
-
- +++++++++
-
- Version 3.1.1, updates the element data file to include the latest element
-
- currently discovered. The universal naming convention is now used for new
-
- elements and elements whose name origin is in contention.
