needeed to access a new information window below.
- New 'Machine Information' window, which shows some
informations from the machine about which you are reading the
history : Mac model, system version, user name ...
- This is very useful when you read Joblog files from
networked Macintoshes. To access such
- information you must install SPY ßg V 2.50 and
upper.
- Performance enhancement when reading Joblog files. The
"YooZ Data" file is no longer needed, because its data is
included in each Joblog file. The speed is greatly improved,
and will be a very appreciated advantage when reading Joblog
files from networked Macintoshes.

and time in history list.

french system.
- In case of corrupted data in Joblog file, you may try
again, with Shift and Option keys pressed when launching YooZ.
This may solve some problems.
- Note : You may give more memory to YooZ than in the
previous version. Up to now the memory used by YooZ was mainly
taken in system heap. This was useful, but really slowed the
process, mainly on PowerMacs with virtual memory. This problem
was solved by using YooZ memory instead of system memory, but
the total memory is the same as with older versions.
- The drawback of this solution is the need to give more
memory to YooZ when the Joblog is
- greater, the great benefit is execution speed.
- English User's Manual available for registered users. For
those regisetred users who don't have it, email me :
pcardon@planete.net

indicated in the User's Manual.

change of Joblog file, as indicated in the User's Manual.
