======================================================================= MISSIONWARE SOFTWARE - FLASH II UPDATE ======================================================================= July 27, 1993 Missionware Software is pleased to provide an online upgrade for all current Flash II owners. We're now releasing Flash II version 2.11, which is a maintenance upgrade for all owners of Flash II version 2.1. However, even if you never upgraded to version 2.1, you'll still be able to upgrade your version 2.0 and 2.01 with this patch! The file to look for is called "F211UPGD.LZH". Flash II version 2.11 fixes a number of minor bugs that our beta testers and users discovered in version 2.1. You only need to upgrade to 2.11 if any of the following affected your operation: * Type Ahead Backspacing: When Rubout was selected and backspace was used, the wrong character got erased from Flash II's internal TA buffer. The text looked ok on the screen but was garbled when sent to the port. * Capture Clear: When clearing a capture that had a marked block, when the capture filled a second time with new data, the marked block reappeared. * Silent Line with 0K Buffer: Silent Line would crash during initialization if its buffer size was set to 0K bytes. * Wait For String Command: This was ignoring case when it should have been case sensitive. * Keypad Enter: When using Keypad Application mode, the ENTER key was sending the wrong escape sequences in the VT and ANSI modes. * "DL AS" Script Command: Added for compatibility with older versions of Flash!. You can now download text as a file. * Memory Options: If "User" was selected and the memory specified was 256K or a multiple thereof, then the setting got chnaged to "All" and 128K at boot time. * Terminal Timer: The timer now counts all the time, not just when you dial a number or board. It resets to zero (0) when you use Dial Number or Dial Board. * Cursor Position: In Vidtex and VT52 modes, if the host positioned the cursor beyond the end of the screen the program crashed. ======================================================================= Missionware Software continues to strive to provide you with the best support anywhere! Remember, version 2.11 is only an interim version. We're planning on releasing version 2.2 fairly soon which adds even more capabilities for all Atari machines and new features as well.
