- History:
-
- 1.20 (28.2.98)
- · Added uudecode function.
- · "Info String" can be moved to the left in the titlebar.
-
- 1.19 (1.12.97)
- · Fixed bugs in text movement of partly loaded text
- (introduced in version 1.18).
-
- Note that if you saved the default value of Buffer Size (0)
- in TextView 1.17, you will probably still want to change it
- to the new default value (-1).
-
- 1.18 (25.11.97)
- · Copies GfxBase->DefaultFont instead of using it directly.
- · TextView's display wasn't updated correctly when
- GfxBase->DefaultFont changed.
- · "Settings->Workbench Icon" is now upated when a new
- settings file is loaded.
- · Name of icon will always be "TextView" instead of the name
- of the file that was viewed when the icon was added.
- · Default font for screen titlebar and menus are now the
- same as the Workbench screen font.
- · Added command "Ascii Dump".
- · Renamed command line option ASCII to NORMAL. ASCII now
- means "Ascii Dump" will be used.
- · Fixed two small bugs regarding macro keys and key repeat
- events.
- · When TextView detects a binary file, it will be shown in
- hex or ascii mode, depending on what was used when the
- settings file was saved.
- · Added "Settings->Info String".
- · Added MOUSEMODE and SCROLLBARMODE options.
- · Changed special cases in "Buffer Size" and "Loading Size".
- · "Information" only shows information about loaded files,
- and nothing about the system anymore.
- · Removed ability to save settings to default settings file
- without using filerequester.
-
- 1.17 (25.10.97)
- · Fixed two bugs regarding filerequester and public screens.
- · Maximum size of buffer to allocate for a file can be set.
- · Removing TextView from Commodities Exchange didn't work
- well when TextView was iconified.
- · Fixed use of string in macro function.
- · Using other than default settings/macro file and selecting
- Load/Save Settings/Macros twice crashed.
- · Uses different filerequesters for settings/macros.
- · Added reload function.
- · Size to read from file between updates of the progress bar
- can be set.
- · Added two options for font usage, used when selecting
- "Settings->Font->Default" and holding down the ctrl key.
-
- 1.16 (8.9.97)
- · Added COLORS command-line option.
- · Having the scroll gadget in the border would loose a
- couple of bytes of memory.
- · Fixed bug in custom text output routine, that would
- write text at wrong place under certain conditions.
- · Initial filerequester didn't care about PUBSCREEN option.
- · Scrollbar wouldn't always be set to full size for
- partially loaded files.
- · Holding down a key (so it produces key repeat events)
- which has a macro assigned to it would loose memory.
- · Using a proportional font and selecting hex mode would go
- back to default text font permanently.
- · "Remove HTML Tags" handles <pre>/</pre>. Made some other
- small changes. Some documents may look worse than earlier.
-
- 1.15 (15.8.97)
- · Won't update scroll gadget after every mousemove when
- scrolling is currently still.
- · Loading routine rewritten.
- Removed internal ppDecrunchBuffer(), powerpacker.library
- is always required for decrunching.
- Uses the progress bar when loading normal files too, not
- just xpk-files.
- Title bar is set to 'Loading...' only when the file is
- actually being read.
- Checks for user break at more places.
- · The progress bar is used when crunching a file.
- · Added Refresh command.
- · Added "Close All", "Save All" and "Crunch & Save All".
- · Searching works even when whole file isn't loaded
- (forwards only).
- · Macro function rewritten.
- You can put in as many commands as there is available
- memory for. Menus can be used in macro.
- The contents of the File-, Font-, Screen Mode-, String-,
- Integer- and Palette requesters can be saved in the macro.
- · If you are out of memory, it's likely there isn't enough
- memory to open a requester to inform about this. So now
- TextView gives that information in the title bar also.
- · Title bar shows name of file when loading/(de)crunching.
- · Title bar shows string when searching.
- · Esc key terminates TextView if only one file is open.
- · Removed random palette.
- · powerpacker.library/ppCrunchBuffer() (V36.10) won't always
- detect buffer overflow, and then also cause a harmless
- MungWall hit. Workaround added for both problems.
- · Directories are ignored when loading multiple files
- (before "TextView DF0:#?" only loaded files from DF0:
- until the first directory was found.)
- · If a drawer icon is dragged over TextView's window, the
- filerequester will open and be positioned in that drawer.
- · If initial file can't be loaded, the filerequester that
- opens will have its directory and filename initialized to
- that file instead of empty strings.
- · Fixed a delay after selecting many files in filerequester.
- · Initial filerequester opens on default public screen.
- · Fixed file checking when a file is opened in place of an
- old one.
- · Proportional fonts are now supported (except in hex mode).
- · Added "Settings->AppIcon", so the icon can always be on
- Workbench, or never (requires that CX_POPKEY have been
- initialized) or like before only when TextView is
- iconified (by using the macro facility).
- · Fixed handling of "cursor forward [n] character positions"
- (9B [N] 43), it used to move one character too far.
- · Different fontstyles should not be able to overwrite
- window borders anymore.
- · Added keyfile requirement for some functions.
