2.1 released 8/3/99

  •	Minor fixes to 2.10 beta 2


2.10beta2 released 5/1/99

  •	Font and styles are now changed by name. e.g.

		set font Courier18 bold

	The size of the current font can be changed with +number and
	 -number. The style and font name can be changed independently
	and the style cleared using a style of "normal".

  •	The "banner" command has been updated to use named fonts
	and styles as detailed above.

  •	Added execution of commands within command lines. e.g.

		set date=‘date‘

	The "‘" is character 145. This incorporates just the FIRSTLINE of
	output from the command and the command MUST use fprint%:
	rather than PRINT - the implementation mechanism uses a variant of
	output redirection.	

  •	With macros the "@" construct has been altered to use the execution
	method given above - ie. the first line of command output will form
	part of the current command line. For added flexibility two new
	targets - :null and :screen have been added that redirect output
	(and errors) to the screen or simply discard it.

  •	Enhanced sample autoexec.bat file demonstrating setting macros and
	toolbar operations.

  •	Displaying/removing the toolbar is now handled by "set -o toolbar"
	rather than "set toolbar on/off/toggle". Use "set ~o toolbar" to
	toggle the state.

  •	Various minor fixes


2.10beta1 released 28/6/98

  •	Reimplemented pipes as binary, rather than text streams
	(thanks to Ian Morgan for providing code for this). There is
	a new function, fread%: to read this binary stream.

  •	fprint%: has been modified so that it DOESN'T append the
	end of line sequence; this enables it to work correctly with
	binary files and to build a single line on the screen with
	multiple fprint%: commands. A global string _CRLR$ has
	been setup so to get the correct behaviour just add "+_CRLF$"
	to the fprint%: commands (see the source for examples).

  •	The "more" command has been rewritten. It now can be used
	to view binary as well as text files and has scrollback. See
	the help entry for details.

  •	New shell options:
		nobeep - silences all Shell5 warning beeps
		debug - prints ERRX$ when an EPOC error is detected.
		sort - sort "ls" and filename expansion output alphabetically.
		         This isn't currently the default as there is a small
		         performance penalty, particularly on large directories.

  •	Implemented an error stream that can be redirected to a
	file (currently this works similarly to the UN*X csh model,
	where the error stream can be added to the output stream
	but NOT redirected separately).

  •	Recoding existing commands to use enhanced pipes and error
	stream. Many commands including echo, od, putclip and wc have
	been extensively revised.

  •	Two new variables for the prompt. %T for time in 24-hour format
	and %t for the time in am/pm format.

  •	The two external commands, button and subst are now part of the
	standard distribution.


2.01 released 18/4/98

  •	Fixed a bug in sysinfo that incorrectly returned the ROM
	version as 1.1, rather than 1.01.

  •	Made the dEDITMULTI edit dialog scale according to the
	screen size. This gives Geofox users more vertical editing
	space.


2.0 released 18/3/98

   •	Allow PgUp, PgDn, End, Start, Menu and Dial to be redefined
	via bindkey, and also take the "Shift-" modifier. The
	documentation implied this was already possible.

   •	Allow .APP applications to take directories as arguments.
	Previously this returned an (incorrect) "out of range" error.


2.0beta3 released 11/3/98

   •	Search within command history implemented. Keys are
	set to the find-next and find-prev bindings via bindkey 	
	(these are set to ctrl-n and ctrl-p by the default autoexec.bat).

   •	No longer an 8 character limit on labels in batch files.

   •	Various bug fixes including a memory leak in _if% that could
	cause a program crash when processing batch files.

   •	Code cleaned up in preparation for the release version.


2.0beta2 released 2/3/98

   •	.APP files can now be run directly from the command line,
	"runapp" is no longer needed and has been removed from
	the distribution. Thanks to Pascal Nicolas and Richard
	Panton for their input on this.

   •	Improved "if" command. Now the "== <string2>" is optional.
	If it's not included the statements following <string1> are
	executed if <string1> is NOT empty or 0.

   •	Improved "edit" command. The cursor position is set to the
	top of the file and the text is no longer selected. The
	method is that used by Roger Muggleton in his editors
	based on dEDITMULTI (http://www.cix.co.uk/~hzk/).

   •	Fixed a silly bug in help%: causing case sensitivity in
	filenames. This meant the program may have tried to open
	help files multiple times (rather than switching to the already
	open help file).

   •	Fixed bug in od%: and more%: where pathnames were not
	put through PrPath$: when the status bar at the bottom of
	the screen was displayed.
