A-Shell Release Notes Version 6.4.1556.4 (16 Jan 2018)

1556.4.1

Fix

INSTR(spos,subject,pattern,flags): When one of the INSTRF_xxx flags was specified, the spos was being applied to the pattern rather than the subject. This was no problem if spos=1, but would likely cause failure of the search otherwise.

1556.4.2

Fix

SUBMIT.LIT 3.3(158): Fix obscure problem causing subscript out of range error sometimes when using the /W switch.

1556.4.3

Revise

ATEGFK.SBX 1.0(105) eliminates a five second delay in the case where the source file exists but has zero bytes.

1556.4.4

Revise

CSV2XL.SBX Enhancement and Fixes.

A-Shell Release Notes Version 6.4.1556.3 (21 Dec 2017)

1556.3

Fix

Minor refinement to XTREE/ATE protocol to close loophole resulting in spurious screen garbage under obscure scenarios.

A-Shell Release Notes Version 6.4.1556.2 (15 Dec 2017)

1556.2.1

Fix

ODTIM: option &h01000000 (do not output month) was only working if option &h00000008 (output month as a number) was also specified. Documentation fix: the documentation had the wrong value for the option to not output date punctuation; it said &h00400000 but should be &h00200000.

1556.2.2

Fix

XTREE: Multi-line editable cells (cformat ME) in property sheets where not allowing the use of the ENTER key to insert a line break.

1556.2.3

Fix

Close an obscure loophole which could have resulted in bad attempts to free memory (possibly even a GPF). UNIX only.

1556.2.4

Fix

Windows installer: during a new installation, or when updating from a version prior to 6.4, in some cases the installer was forcing a reboot. That has been stopped.

A-Shell Release Notes Version 6.4.1556.1 (28 Nov 2017)

1556.1.2

Fix

XTREE: in some cases, an answer array passed as ANSARY(1) with element size of 24 was being misinterpreted as an array descriptor, causing a failure to load some or all of the lines.

1556.1.1

Fix

APEX: selective page printing (when starting from other than page 1) was failing to initialize the auto-pitch font.

A-Shell Release Notes Version 6.4.1556.0 (22 Nov 2017)

1556.0.2

Fix

Close segmentation fault window when passing F4 parameters to ASQL.SBR.

1556.0.1

Revision

Installer enhancement: script files %MIAME%\ash_custom1.bat and %MIAME%\ash_custom2.bat will now be executed during installation/update, at the start of the file copying and at the end, respectively, if they exist. This provides a way for sites to exercise some control over the update process, perhaps by shutting down background services using A-Shell and then restarting them. Or by saving/restoring customized components or files that you don't want updated in a normal A-Shell update. Note that all the install package contains sample versions of these two files, any customizations you make will not be overwritten.
