            Ķ ĺ          The following is a list of the most
         Ŵ     recent changes made to ANTI-AD by
                Ľ Ľ         revision level, in reverse order.
                              
         


0.93    - A new command-line switch has been installed; the -L switch will
(10/23/92) create a text list file containing the names of the files that are
           identified as BBS ads. This list file can be passed to an archiver
           to delete the listed files from the archive without the
           unpack/delete/repack sequence of events. Refer to the documentation
           for more information.

           Installed a cap on the maximize size of a file that will be checked
           by ANTI-AD. You will find that this will increase the speed of
           ANTI-AD's processing.

           Removed the screen-clearing code from program startup. It screwed up
           the display of ULP (and probably other upload processing utilities)
           during processing.

0.92    - Added the ability for the user to select the disposition of the BBS
(10/6/92)  ad file depending upon the detection method. The two parameters are
           CRC_DISP and KEYWORD_DISP, and the disposition options are DELETE
           and STORE. Refer to the documentation for complete information.

           A limit on the minimum number of keywords allowed to be defined has
           been implemented; it is currently set to 5. This means that all
           keyword sets must contain from 5 to 10 keywords. This was done to
           help prevent false file removals due to inadequate keyword planning.

           In order to reduce the length of the command line for ANTI-AD (to
           help ease implementation into BBS upload utilities), ANTI-AD will
           search the environment for a parameter called "ANTI-AD_CFG". This
           environment variable can be set to the complete path and filename of
           your ANTI-AD configuration file, eliminating the need for using the
           -C command line parameter. Refer to the documentation.

           ANTI-AD now uses a unique name for each BBS ad it stores. Before, it
           used the original filename, potentially causing file overwriting.

           Changed the -D command switch to -P. Made more sense...

0.91    - An 'innocent' change prior to release turned out to be not so
(10/2/92)  innocent.  If no path was passed using the '-D' parameter, then
           ANTI-AD would get lost.  Fixed.  (Bad programmer! Slap! Slap!)
           Sorry 'bout that...

0.90    - Initial public beta release.
(10/1/92)
