2.20 Sun 03-10-1991 *Release*
General release; changed working version from 2.11 to 2.20.
Command changes from 2.10 to 2.20:
-j (joint) message processing
-a (alter) filter low ascii characters (including ESC)
-g (graph) allow low ascii characters
------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
2.11j Tue 03-05-1991 *Alpha*
Removed ERRORLEVEL==11 which was caused by removing the ERRORLEVEL==6
("nothing to do") from operating when processing script questionnaire
files. TXT2MSG will exit with ERRORLEVEL==0 if no script ANSWERx file
is found when it starts. This avoids the need to check for their
existance (ANSWERx) before processing. See SCRIPTS.BAT for an example
of how to setup/run the SQ2MSG processing option of TXT2MSG.
------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
2.11i Mon 03-04-1991 *Alpha*
Lots of tagline packing/processing code add/testing. This is in prep
for RNet recoding into TurboC. Packing/processing routine is fast,
accurate, and does almost (not quite) as much as the current RNet
tagline packing routine does.
Changed window display during -j(oint) processing. Will now show a
scrolling window of "quick scan" headers as processed.
Added CNAMES.@@@ (via environ CNAMES=) support; allowed for automatic
adaption to future versions of PCBoard (15.0+) that use CNAMES.@@@.
Added search in current directory for CNAMES.@@@ and CNAMES.$$$ if
not found via environment.
Added ERRORLEVEL==13 - Unexpected DOS Error [txt]
Added line of *'s after script answers and before logs for ANSWERx
messages (by request).
------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
2.11f Thu 02-21-1991 *Beta*
Fixed problem when processing ZIPM files with SQ2MSG messages present
(finding "From:") in text. Was getting confused as to what is was
doing with a given message.
Started work on tagline packing routines for better handling (for
future use in RNet). Useful here for the "joint" message insertion
process when dealing with Echomail or ProDoor messagebase captures.
Hooks placed for future expansion of tagline processing routines.
Removed ERRORLEVEL==6 (nothing to do) when processing script
questionnaire messages. This avoids the need to check for the
questionnaire before processing (Tex would "beep" at me every night
because an ANSWER?.TTY file wouldn't exist and I got sick of it).
------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------
2.11e Thu 02-14-1991 *Alpha*
Added "joint" multi-message insertion from ZIPM/CAP sourcefiles.
Requires -j on commandline. Joint messages with blank lines are
*not* compressed. TXT2 will only process one such file (ie, it will
not accept multiple joint source files). Works with ZIPM and even a
modem capture of a R;S;NS in PCBoard.
Fixed broken 2x blank line checking.
Massive speedup of large sourcefile text reading (one pass for
control information, all subsequent passes for actual text)
Added filter on|off option for low-ascii characters:
-a = alter low ascii (alter)
-g = allow low ascii (graphics)
Default is still as it was -- filter enabled (-a).
Tagline Environment variable support; TAGLINE=tagtext -- this is the
same as ProDoor uses for its taglines. Taglines will now appear as:
■ TXT2MSG v.vvx: tagtext
If not available, TXT2MSG will use old format:
■ TXT2MSG v.vvx [time date]

2.11a Fri 01-25-1991 *Alpha*
Refined Amiga free-form text processing - workable but not great.
