- History Track-reader.
-
- 03-apr-92: Started programming
-
- 09-apr-93: First sub-version, included track-reading and intuition and
- keyboard interface.
-
- 11-apr-93: First running version with read & write and full menus
- (Search and Load/Save functions not yet included)
-
- 20-apr-93: Added Load and Save with ASL-requester
- Decided to make the program OS 2.0 only.
- Included SimpleRequest for messages instead of puts()
-
- 22-apr-93: Now use V37 NewMenu to save memory for Menu-structures.
-
- 27-apr-93: Completed 'Search Number'.
- Completed 'Search String' with three search-modes.
-
- 28-apr-93: Changed number of tracks to 160, instead of 80. Although this is
- not consistent with the widely used 'X-Copy', it is more practical
- to handle the upper and lower side of a track as two different
- tracks.
- Bug fixed: Search does not find something anymore on the first
- track when you cancel the operation.
- Added: showing error-message with explanation whenever a
- trackdisk error occurs.
- Diskbuffer is cleared before any reading. If a read-error occurs
- at the first read, the buffer will not show garbage but zeroes.
-
- 29-apr-93: Bug found and exterminated; A Guru would appear when the mouse
- was moved whilst releasing the menu-button. The message handling
- was fixed to prevent this bug. (It took me four full hours to
- find the source of this nightmare!)
-
- 05-may-93: Speeded Search up a bit by not having the drive's motor stopped
- each time a sector is read.
- Made Search-window more friendly: the string gadget is now
- automatically activated.
- Small bug fixed: if you gave an illegal string for number search,
- Tracked would give you also the message 'data not found'. Now it
- will only say 'error in input'.
-
- 21-may-93: Adapted menus in such a way that they will appear in the light
- colour (usually white) when running under OS3.0, instead of the
- dark (black) colour of OS2.0.
