A-Shell Development History

1208.1.1

Fix XTREE crash bug: Occurred when loading a list-match cell whose contents had no match in the list (typically an empty cell). (Introduced in 1208.0)

1208.1.2

Log file cleanup: eliminate "!Bad Control" trace messages unless the XDEBUG trace flag is set. These are common non-error warnings in Leo-generated programs when switching panels in a Tab control.

1208.0.1

GUI refinement: The standard icon set, housed in ashico1.dll, has been replaced with a new version containing "Vista-style" versions of the same icons. The new icons, which were previously available in ashico1v.dll, are quite similar to the old ones, but have a slightly enhanced style, presumably more aesthetically compatible with Vista and Windows 7. The old icon set has been renamed to ashico1x.dll, and will remain available for manual download on our website. The two dlls are otherwise identical, so they can be substituted for each other by just renaming the dll.

1208.0.2

The maximum length of the ERSATZ= filespec has been increased from 70 to 160.

1208.0.3

Aux printing enhancement: Printing Multiple Copies of reports is now handled differently in some conditions.

1208.0.4

ATE command set enhancement: different handling of Copies in AG_SPOOLCFG.

1208.0.5

Windows printing bug fix: Close a loophole which, in some obscure cases (depending on the printer driver and/or the sequence of events), requesting multiple copies in the printer dialog would result in both A-Shell and the printer driver generating copies (thus yielding the square of the desired number of copies, i.e. 4 instead of 2).

1208.0.6

XTREE bug fix: Close loophole related to optimization which allowed the "|" prefix (to disable editing in an otherwise editable cell) to appear in the tree display.

1208.0.7

XTREE enhancement: New First Position Reserved (cformat option "P") may be used with editable cells to indicate that the first position is reserved for either a space (editable) or a "|" (not editable).

1208.0.8

Scroll-back mouse cursor bug fix: When the scroll-back feature was enabled (Control_Shift_UpArrow), when the mouse hovered over the main window vertical scroll bar, the mouse cursor was changing to a horizontal resizing arrow rather than a normal single arrow.

1208.0.9

Print tracing/logging refinement: Print Request Tracing now provides more information on number of copies.
