THE HISTORY of PCBDE Part 1.
=========================================================================

v1.00  07/25/93    * Limited Initial Release. Wanted to work out the major
                     bugs.

       08/01/93    * Author gets side tracked due to major abdominal
                     surgery. Doesn't write any code for several weeks
                     for obvious reasons.

v2.01  09/15/93    * Initial Shareware release

v2.05  09/16/93    * PPE's were not loading properly.......FIXED!

v2.10  09/19/93    * ALL Color's are now SysOp configurable.

v2.11  09/20/93    * v2.10 sent out on the wire with no REGISTER.DOC!
                     Optimized some code which should improve speed.
                     Still working on categorizing doors.

v2.50  09/21/93    * Slight Display bug with new colors..........FIXED!

                     If your system had less than 15 doors which
                     is less than 1 page, they were not displayed
                     correctly...................................FIXED!

                   * ADDED: Ability to categorize Doors!

                   * ADDED: Command line switches!

                     OPEN A - displays ALL doors
                     OPEN C - asks category

v2.51  09/22/93    * I went and fiddled with the Command line!
                     v2.50 wasn't allowing you to go right into
                     a door from the command line................FIXED!
                     The High price of Progress! ;)

                   * ADDED: PCBDE_ED.EXE - This is a little configuration
                            file editor written by Chuck Valecek! Fire
                            this up for quick changes without the comma
                            headaches normally associated with a file
                            like PCBDE.CFG!

                            Say it with me guys.......Thanks Chuck!

                   * Unless someone finds a bug, this is the last
                     version of PCBDE for a week or 2! I have an
                     article to work on for the PPE Newsletter!

v2.60  09/23/93    * No bugs to squash, but I had some requests that
                     I thought would improve the code.

                     Request 1 - Improve display speed.
                     Request 2 - Keep LST files static so they
                                 don't grow so huge!

                     These two are actually related so I went back to
                     work..........

                   * YOU MUST DELETE *EVERYTHING* IN THE PCBDE SUBDIRECTORY
                     TO UPGRADE TO THIS VERSION. The way I was calculating
                     Times opened for each door was pretty slow so I changed
                     it. the .LST files stored in the PCBDE directory are
                     now *STATIC* in size! They will NEVER get any bigger!

                   * I re-wrote a ton of code for this release so holler
                     if a bug pops up!

v3.10  10/01/93    * YOU MUST DELETE *EVERYTHING* IN THE PCBDE SUBDIRECTORY
                     TO UPGRADE TO THIS VERSION. Due to next Item!

                   * Times opened counter expanded to 99999!

                   * Added the ability to specify a PPE path
                     when calling other PPE's!

                   * Times Opened counter was not counting if user
                     issued the "OPEN 'shortcut'" command........FIXED!

v3.20  10/11/93    * YOU MUST DELETE *EVERYTHING* IN THE PCBDE SUBDIRECTORY
                     TO UPGRADE TO THIS VERSION.

                   * Added ability to pass command line parameters to
                     the door that is called. For example users can
                     automatically start their Qmail download with the
                     "OPEN QMAIL D" command. This feature does not work
                     with PPE's yet!

                   * If user entered 007 instead of 7 at the prompt, it
                     was creating 2 different LST files. This caused
                     the times opened and last opened indicators to be
                     off.........................................FIXED!

                   * Added 2 additional highlight colors for a total of
                     3. You may now choose which color to use on a
                     particular entry. Because of this you MUST edit
                     the PCBDE.COL file and add 2 lines. see UPGRADE.DOC.

v3.30  10/18/93    * Added SysOp definable header for registered users.
                     - By request, I aim to please.
                     PCBDE defaults to *NOT* use the .HDR file. If you
                     want to define your own header create a file called
                     PCBDE.HDR and edit it as you please. HDR.DAT is
                     included as an example.

                   * Did some serious code optimization. PCBDE should now
                     run faster. I removed many lines of redundant code!

                   * NEW! PCBDEBLT.EXE by Chuck Valecek. This little
                     executable will create a nifty bulletin with
                     all your door info.

                   * UPDATED! PCBEED3.EXE by Chuck Valecek. Now includes
                     option to pick your highlight color.

                   * Had a request to add a column the display to show if the
                     door registered. I'm interested in hearing what you
                     folks think about this.

v3.40  10/18/93    * Bug squashing release only! v3.30 was not reading in the
                     PPE path from the PCBDE.CFG properly................FIXED!

v3.50  11/08/93    * Yet another bug release! v3.40 was getting PPE paths from
                     the command line, but not if the user picked it from the
                     menu................................................FIXED!

v3.51  11/09/93    * Minor Bug Fix. Something went amiss with the 3.50 compile.
                     The code was STILL not picking up the PPE Paths from
                     the menu............................................FIXED!
                     This one was a real pain to track down! Several code
                     segments had to be changed.

v3.60  11/15/93    * Fix a few spelling errors in the Display files! I was not
                     an English major!!:)

                   * Recompiled code with PPLC version 2! Optimized code for new
                     compiler. Performance improvement noted on my system. Added
                     a few incentives to register the code.

v3.61  12/02/93    * Recompiled with 12-01-93 beta of PPL 2.0. This should
                     hopefully get rid of the nasty buffer errors that where
                     cause by the Beta compiler!

v3.62  12/06/93    * I finally broke down and called Clark to find out EXACTLY
                     what was causing the Buffer errors. They gave me some
                     hints, and I recoded a few segments! I sure hope this takes
                     care of the problem!

v4.00  06/08/94    * New owners!  GO/4 Software are now the support, registration
                     and programmers for the newly named PCBDE (previously called
                     TCMDE).

                   * Display modifications to reflect the new company name, added
                     the (A)bout feature (all of our software has it in it, just
                     basically a "who we are" screen, only those peopel who know
                     about it bother with it anyway <G>.

                   * Placed hooks into the code so that we can launch both PPE's
                     and regular door programs and have them register in the
                     counter display.  This will be in ver 4.01.
