Change History:

Version 2.1 was released in Oct 1992 and the following was
changed from/added to version 2.0

QFINDWIN -

Added a Copy to clipboard menu item. When selected, the text
on the screen will be copied to the clipboard.

When Qfindwin was minimized, it used the title of the main
window which could be very long resulting in 2 or 3 text
lines under the icon. Qfindwin now display "Qfind" when
minimized.

Re-arranged the menu items. The about and the support menu
items are now under a Support main item.

Added accelerator keys to most of the main menu items.

Added the abliliy to force the find dialog box to
automatically be displayed when the program is activated.
See QFINDWIN.DOC for information.

Fixed a problem with the cursor. When the cursor was moved
over the sizing boarders, the sizing cursor was not being
reset to the normal cursor when moved off. Cursor now works
properly.

Version 2.0 was released in Aug 1992 and the following was
changed from/added to version 1.5.

Added QFBLDWIN - This program is the windows version of the build
utility.

Added SETUPQF - This windows program will automatically set up
the suite of QFIND programs and install them in the proper place.
NOTE - SetupQf requires the Visual Basic run-time module
(VBRUN100.DLL). If you don't have it, it can be obtained from
Compuserve.

QFINDWIN - Added color setting dialog box

Fixed a bug in QFBuild's unzip routine. It would bypass certain
ZIP files with a message - Invalid ZIP FILE - Aborting. Now
works with any valid ZIP file.

**************************************************************

Version 1.5 was released in March 1992 and the following was
changed from 1.4.

QFBUILD - Now creates QFIND.DAT with Upper/Lower case file
names.

QFIND - Now displaying file names in Upper/Lower case.

QFINDWIN -

Now using Upper/Lower case for file names. This improves
readability.

The initial size of the main window is now selected so that
all columns of information are visible. Before, I was
letting Windows size the main window and sometimes it would
be too small.

************************************************************


Version 1.4 was released in January 1992 and the following was
changed from version 1.3

QFBUILD - No Changes

QFIND - No Changes

QFINDWIN -

Changed font to System Font. I believe that is easier to
read than the previous font.

Increased font leading slightly. Again, this is easier to
read than before.

Made .Zip and .Arc searching the default. You can still
change it by clicking on the checkbox.

Greatly improved screen scrolling in single line scroll.
Scrolling is about 2-4 times faster.

Added QFINDWIN.INI. All parameters for Qfindwin are now in
this file.

Added a color option. Now the user has a choice of using
bolding, normal, and italic for the various file types, or
using different colors for display.

Changed the development environment from the Microsoft SDK
and Microsoft C v5.1 to Microsoft Quick C for Windows.

************************************************************

Version 1.3 was released in October 1991 and the following was
changed from version 1.2

Fixed 2 problems with QFBuild. QFBuild was not cataloging
the last sub-directory of each drive. QFBuild was bombing on
ZIP files containing long path names.

Fixed a font size problem with QFindWin. On some systems,
the selected font was too small.

************************************************************

Version 1.2 was released in August 1991 and the following was
changed from version 1.1....

QFBuild now includes the directory of ARC and ZIP files if
desired.

files if desired. A "GoTo" function was added.

QFindWin

files if desired.

QfGoto is no longer being shipped with the product. Qfind

changed from version 1.0....

Qfbuild -
No changes

too small for super VGA. The program now detects super VGA
and uses a larger font.

Added a match count to the main window title.

Added 3D look in all the dialog boxes.

The 3D look uses THREE_D.DLL which was provided by:

  1. Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!

  2. This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.

  3. But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
