Version: 1.00
Date: (06.01.96)
Notes:

    First version completed.  Working GUI courtesy of BGUI.library.
    Several features still need to be added.

Version: 1.01
Date: (07.01.96)
Notes:

    [N]     Added help pages to both windows

    [N]     Added status bar to listview; shows the directory
            currently being searched and also indicates when
            the search has finished.

    [N]     There is now an ABORT button on the listview allowing
            the user to finish a search before it is completed.

    [b]     Fixed the height of the buttons on the main screen -
            they previously looked silly when enlarged.

    [b]     Made listview read-only.

    [N]     Made all errors/infos appear in EasyRequests.

Version: 1.02
Date: 13/01/96
Notes:

    [N]     Added Case-sensitivity to the search via a checkbox gadget.

Version: 1.03
Date: 13.01.96
Notes:

    [b]     Added a stack-checking routine for the recursive procedure
            which searches through the directories.  The program would
            previously fall over when it went through about seven
            levels of directories.  Will now go through a *lot* more
            (should be about 40-45 levels), and will also exit graciously
            if it does run out of stack.
               - * -

Version: 1.04
Date: (07.02.96)
Notes:

    [N]     The program will now accept being started from the CLI.
            It will fill in the "Path" and "Pattern" gadgets with
            arguments specified in the command line.
               - * -

Version: 1.05
Date: (04.03.96)
Notes:

    [N]     FindItGui now operates on a "pages" system, with one
            page for the main string gadgets, and another for the
            options.  This has made it possible to add more options
            with having to resize the window.

    [N]     Added a buffering system for the listview gadget.  The
            user can select a level of buffering from the options
            page, and the program will keep all of the matched entries
            in an internal list until a specified limit is reached.
            The buffer is then flushed to the listview and disk-accessing
            restarts.

    [N]     Due to the new file buffering system, I noticed that when
            the user aborts a search, the contents of the buffer are
            flushed.  The user is now asked whether (s)he would like
            to see the contents of the buffer.

    [N]     To reflect the new buffering system, a new command-line
            parameter has been introduced.  The "buffer level" option
            accepts a value from 0 to 3 to reflect No Buffering to
            Heavy Buffering.

    [N]     The main FindItGui window is now an AppWindow.  The user
            can now drop a disk/drawer icon on the window and the
            path will be automatically entered in the string gadget.
            Neat!

Version: 1.06
Date: (14.03.96)
Notes:

    [A]     After `consultation' with a friend, I decided that the listview
            should be automatically cleared after a search has taken
            place.
               - * -

Version: 1.07
Date: (20.03.96)
Notes:

    [N]     FindItGui now accepts arguments from the command-line
            via ReadArgs().

    [N]     FindItGui now runs as a commodity!
       - * -

Version: 1.08
Date: (07.04.96)
Notes:

    [b]     The commodity handler was *very* bugged.  Managed to sort it
            out this afternoon - it didn't take as long as I thought it
            would!
               - * -

Version: 1.09
Date: (08.04.96)
Notes:

    [b]     The commodity handler wasn't coping with COMM_UNIQUE calls
            very well, so I took it apart and managed TO fix it - I
            hope!  It certainly seems to handle UNIQUE calls OK now.

    [N]     FindItGui now runs from Workbench and will read certain
            tooltypes from it's icon.

    [b]     Corrected grammatical error in History file :-)

Version: 1.10
Date: (12.06.96)
Notes:

    [N]     FindItGui now has a "Hide..." gadget in the window. This is an
            alternative to using the close gadget.  Suggested by David
            Bump.

    [N]     Information on pattern matching is now included in Help Window.
            Suggested by David Bump.

Version: 1.11
Date: (28.06.96)
Notes:

    [b]     The file-matching routine decided that it was going to kill
            itself.  This resulted in the program throwing back all sorts
            of strange errors, such as No Stack Available.  The bug took me
            a while to find, 'cos I was thrashing around in the dark ;),
            but it was pretty obvious once I'd tracked it down.  I've no
            idea how it got into earlier releases, though - they all worked
            fine!  *Strrraaannnggggeeee* :)

Version: 1.12
Date: (19.07.96)
Notes:

    [b]     The FindItGui window now pops up on the frontmost screen.
            Noticed this rather annoying bug and had quite a time trying
            to fix it :))

Version: 1.13
Date: (31.07.96)
Notes:

    [b]     When starting from Workbench, the PATH and PATTERN tooltypes
            weren't recognised.  Now fixed.  Reported by Tobias Biehl.

    [N]     FindItGui now reports the number of successful matches made at
            the end of a search.
