Before installing ASTG 1.7, please copy your current ASTG to a
different place, just in case 1.7 causes you more problems than
it is worth!

ASTG 1.8:

o  Removed the backup code in ASTG.  It was creating more
   problems than it was worth.  Users would run ASTG after ASTG
   bombed out, and the empty file would be backed up, destroying
   the good file.  Since no one (including myself) was benefiting
   from the backup option, I took it out to save space.

o  ASTG got rewritten from the ground up.  This was due to the
   fact that although ASTG was running flawelessly on countless
   systems, it was still crashing on Asha's machine.  This is not
   good, since it is Asha's program!  ALL SAS/C str* string
   functions were removed or my own code was substituted.  ASTG
   is slightly slower, but now seems to be running stable on
   Asha's machine.  As a side effect, the code is around 2K
   smaller.

ASTG 1.7:

o  As part of the PARANOID philosophy, I have implemented a
   backup mode in ASTG.  Before it touches your tagline file, it
   copies the file to the same directory with the ".bk" suffix.

o  ASTG would crash horribly if the tagline file was 0 bytes
   long.  Code has been added to exit gracefully if that happens.
   If you see this error, it is probably because ASTG bombed out
   in an earlier run.

o  Implemented the PARANOID MODE of programming ASTG.  This means
   that ASTG error checks practically everything it does and
   fails if anything is remiss, but it prints an error code when
   it does so.  This should facilitate troubleshooting of bugs
   that I cannot reproduce here.

o  Removed, for philosophical reasons, all dependencies in ASTG
   itself on ReqTools.  The dependencies still exist in ASTG
   Prefs.  One thing at a time, ambassador, one thing at a time.

ASTG 1.6:

o  Rewrote the Prefs program to eliminate the occasion that would
   cause garbage to show up in the EDITOR2 field and cause the
   TearLine feature to misbehave.

   If I am correct, this will clear up some odd crashes being
   seen on some select systems.  If not, back to the drawing
   board...

   No matter what, you will have to delete ENV:ASTG.PREFS and
   re-run ASTG Prefs.  The new prefs file is completely different
   from the old one.

ASTG 1.4:

o  Yet another speed increase -- this time, on the file
   write-back.  Changed it from line I/O to buffered I/O.

o  Found and stomped one more bug, this one introduced in 1.3.
   The memory buffer used to store the tagline selected was
   exactly one byte too large.  Thus, a garbage character was
   being tacked on to the end of each tagline in the tagline file.

o  Removed all references to ANY "printf" related functions
   (fprintf, sprintf), which reduced the code size by 4K or
   thereabouts.

o  Changed "cleanup" function to utilize a faster method of
   writing out the tagline file when it's cleaning out the "*"'s.
   I don't think there's anything else that can be done to
   increase the speed of ASTG now.
