DLP HS/Link Revision History (in reverse order)
-----------------------------------------------

12-Mar-95
Internal changes in file handlers.
Restored "minimize" button to hs/link status display window.

Posted as public beta 1.15B4 under filename HSD115B4.ZIP.

10-Mar-95
Updated documentation to reflect the new, LOWER registration fee of
just $15.

This beta now includes an integrated setup dialog, available from
within ProComm's Current Setup | Transfer Protocol | Current Protocol
HSLINK selection.

Changed auto-download trigger string to work-around a problem in some
versions of ProComm which would cause the letter "H" to be delayed or
misinterpreted in some contexts.

NOTICE: TO UPGRADE TO THIS VERSION, YOU MUST FIRST REMOVE THE
ORIGINAL HSLINK INFORMATION FROM WITHIN PROCOMM'S DATA FILES.
USE THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURE:
(1) REMOVE HSLINK.DLP FROM YOUR PROWIN2 DIRECTORY
(2) START PROWIN
(3) EXIT PROWIN
(4) COPY THE NEW HSLINK.DLP TO YOUR PROWIN2 DIRECTORY
YOU MAY ALSO WISH TO REMOVE THE ORIGINAL HSLINK.INI FILE SO
THIS VERSION MAY CREATE A CLEAN INI FILE.

Added "About HS/Link" button to the HS/Link setup screen.

Added a "countdown" timer display in the "Please Register" reminder
screen so you know when the screen will automatically disappear.

Removed the "use large fonts" option.

Removed the "xon/xoff handshake" option. Since xon/xoff handshake is
not functional under windows, this option is no longer needed.

The 28-jul posting still generated general protection faults.
This seems to work correctly, but lacks the setup screen. You'll
have to manually edit the HSLINK.INI file to change options. Once I
find out from datastorm how to interface the setup screens I will get
the online configuration working again.

28-Jul-94
Internal changes were required to support ProComm Plus for Windows 2.0.
This version of HSLINK cannot be used with earlier ProWin versions!

14-May-94
THE TOOL SHOP HAS MOVED! Our Post Office Box is unchanged, but all
programs and files have been updated to reflect the new telephone
numbers:
New Tool Shop BBS v.32bis FREE line............... 213-851-2393
New Tool Shop BBS v.32bis SUBSCRIBER/ORDER line... 213-851-2127
New Tool Shop BBS USR HST 9600 line............... 213-851-2314
New VOICE LINE for ORDERS and TECHNICAL SUPPORT... 213-851-9969
New FAX line...................................... 213-851-2127

Because no further changes are planned for this beta cycle, this may
be the FINAL BETA before the next official release version.

IF YOU NEED TECHNICAL SUPPORT, YOU MUST CALL THE VOICE LINE AND TALK
TO SAMUEL SMITH DIRECTLY!

version) and HSD114G0.ZIP (german version).

Corrected logic in GIF viewer to prevent occasional fault when
downloading invalid GIF files.

24-Sep-93
Corrected the initial string output to begin with CR. I got some
language-translation message codes mixed up, which caused
bidirectional transfers to often fail.

19-Jul-93
Posted as public beta 1.14B6 under filename HSD114B6.ZIP (english
version) and HSD114G6.ZIP (german version).

Special thanks to Martin Thommen of CommNET communications for his
assistance in the German translation.

17-Jul-93
Corrected a formatting error in the incoming and outgoing filename
banner displays (broken in beta B4).

More complete translation of screen displays in german version.

12-Jul-93
Posted as public beta 1.14B4 under filename HSD114B4.ZIP.

Created partial German language version of HSLINK.DLP. This will be
posted as HSD114G4.ZIP.

03-Jul-93
Possible correction of occasional registration failures.

Added an information screen when registration is successful.

16-Jun-93
Internal changes (elimination of some unused code and movement of
more text from code segment to resources).

Changed the 'not allowed to overwrite existing file' message to
always include the pathname of the duplicate file.

15-Jun-93
Posted as public beta 1.14B2 under filename HSD114B2.ZIP.

The "REGISTER" screen now accepts DLP HS/Link activation codes. Sorry, but
DOS HS/Link registrations are NOT valid for the Windows DLP version.

You can now use the "Advanced settings" in ProWin setup to set HSLINK.DLP
settings in HSLINK.INI. The HSLINK.CFG file is no longer used.

Added a [Registration] section to the HSLINK.INI file to allow the serial
number, customer name and company name to be stored.

Added logic to honor the "display GIF during download" option in ProWin.

Added logic to pass the correct filename to the GIF viewer.

Changed unregistered copies to virtually eliminate the shareware reminder
screen during the first 30 days of use. This makes it possible to
evaluate the shareware version in unattended "host" mode without getting
stuck in a reminder screen.

Corrected the "CANCEL" button logic to prevent possibly getting stuck
sending repeated cancel messages to the remote unit.

Corrected the sample HOST.WAS to properly handle HSLINK.DLP protocol.

The registration reminder screen is now automatically closed after 30
seconds.

18-May-93
Posted as public beta 1.14B0 under filename HSD114B0.ZIP.

Multiple outgoing files are now properly supported.

Added a check for overflowing COMM buffers and a warning message when the
buffer needs to be set larger.

Rewrote displays to eliminate use of Borland Custom Controls as problems
resulted from missing or incorrect BWCC.DLL files.
