zdb 1.8C
jOE mORTENSEN
aPRIL 12, 1992
a CHANGE IN THE DIALER ROUTINE MADE BY hAWLEY/hAZEN PREVENTED
LONG DIALING STRINGS WITH DELAYS IN THEM (LIKE CREDIT CARD CALLS)
FROM GOING THROUGH PROPERLY. tHE mreset CALL WAS COMING TOO
SOON. a LONGER DELAY IN tstr FIXED THE BUG. tHE COUNT GIVEN TO
BE REGISTER WAS ORIGINALLY 40. a CHANGE TO 0 (MAKING IT IN
EFFECT 256) SOLVED THE PROBLEM.
zdb 1.8B - CHANGES BY aL hAWLEY 02/04/92
-a "JR CLKOK" INSTRUCTION WAS ADDED AT THE END OF THE CLKOK:
ROUTINE AFTER THE CALL TO FNAMZ TO ENABLE RECOGNITION OF THE
du SPEC IN THE DEFAULT DATA FILENAME.
-iN zdb18.b, ADDED 2 INSTRUCTIONS WHICH SEND "atz" TO THE
MODEM AFTER COMPLETION OF DIALING. tHIS LEAVES THE MODEM IN
A WELL DEFINED STANDARD STATE FOR SUBSEQUENT USE BY OTHER
COMMUNICATION PROGRAMS WHICH MAY NOT RESET THE s7 REGISTER.
zdb 1.8
jOE mORTENSEN
jANUARY 30, 1992
bUG FIXES IN THIS RELEASE:
1. a PROBLEM WITH EDITING AFTER USING THE fIND COMMAND HAS
BEEN CORRECTED. tHE BUG WAS CREATING A SECOND RECORD AND
APPENDING IT TO THE FILE RATHER THAN CHANGING THE EXISTING ONE.
2. pROBLEMS SOME USERS HAVE WITH THE FORMFEED AFTER
PRINTING LABELS HAS BEEN FIXED THROUGH ELIMINATION. aFTER EACH
LABEL IS PRINTED THE PRINTER NOW GETS A RESET STRING TO RESTORE
THE PRINTER TO ITS DEFAULTS. tHE FINAL FORMFEED AFTER A LABEL
PRINTING SESSION IS GONE. tHIS WAS NEVER A PROBLEM TO ME, BUT
SOME USERS HAVE COMPLAINED AND PLEADED FOR MERCY. nOW GRANTED.
cHANGES IN THIS RELEASE:
1. dEFAULT DATA FILE NAME MAY NOW HAVE DRIVER/USER PREFIX
AS PART OF IT. tHIS IS CONFIGURABLE WITH THE cfg FILE. uP TO 16
CHARACTERS MAY BE IN THE FILE NAME.
2. i HAVE GONE BACK TO A SINGLE VERSION OF zdb RATHER THAN
SEPARATE ONES FOR zsdos AND z3pLUS. v. 1.8 USES THE dslib CLOCK
ROUTINES FOR PORTABILITY.
pROBLEMS NOT RESOLVED:
i RECEIVED ONE NOTE ABOUT A PROBLEM WITH ZERO LENGTH PRINTER
STRINGS. i HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. iF YOU
RUN INTO THIS, PLEASE GIVE ME SOME DETAILS.
sOME USERS FIND THAT THEIR PRINTERS CAN'T HANDLE BOTH nlq
AND eMPHASIZED PRINT AT THE SAME TIME. tHE DISTRIBUTION VERSION
IS SET UP THIS WAY. iF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM, USE cfg TO CHANGE
YOUR PRINTER STRINGS.
