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.
