Thanks to all who've sent in post cards and e-mail! Your kind words and constructive suggestions have made SunBlock a better product! A special thanks to those who've sent in their shareware fees - thanks for your support! Your payment entitles you to this version, as well as any subsequent versions of SunBlock!
Note:
This is becoming a familiar litany, but please bear with me. I've had a few requests for black and white capability for SunBlock. I haven't had the time to devote to that task, and I apologize that it's still not included in this version. I promise to get to it eventually!
• Disabled the "Force Quit" command (Apple-Option-Esc key combination), making the password protection system more secure. (Thanks to Jim Luther for the compiled code to make this work.)
• Added dual-screen capability, so that SunBlock will work with two-monitor systems. (Thanks to Richard Farrell for the bug report, and debugging assistance.)
• Fixed a problem with System 6 capability. I don't know if there are any others, but I don't think so... (Thanks to Vicki Murrell for the bug report.)
• Added two more modules, for a total of 18:
- Warp Drive, a trip through hyperspace (?) Works best on 68040 machines, though it will work on slower machines (Thanks to Richard Farrell for the idea)
- Splats! Expresses your rage at the computer by throwing a random assortment of pies, tomatoes, eggs, etc., at the screen. (Thanks to my CyByrSoft partner in crime, Jim Byer, for the original idea, and artwork.)
• Corrected a bug introduced into version 2.2, where the arrow/help keys caused a program crash under certain conditions. Changed the operation of the delete key to ensure non-visible characters were not embedded in the password. (Thanks to Foto Ron on AOL for the bug report)
• Added default button highlighting when the return/enter key is pressed
• Fixed a minor bug that caused the password quit dialog box to not be properly erased from the screen when an incorrect password was entered, under certain configurations.
