Solved Issues

98.7 On launch of PACT Timer 98 a recurring timer will not be started if it is overdue. In other words, if Timer is not running although a recurring timer was scheduled, this occurence will be omited. (A "Start Once" timer, however, will be started if no "Don't-start-after" time was given.)

98.5b The Timer icon is displayed as small as it should if no start path is given.

98.5a When a recurring timer can not be started at the specified time (because the computer was off, or the Timer not running) it sets the new time correctly by multiplying the interval as often as is necessary, instead of using now.

98.4 After some ten-thousand displays of the timer dialogbox without closing, the colors may be changed to black and white. Solved.

98.3c Undocumented behavior of a used function crashed the shell after about 6000 program starts. In Windows 95 the error message "Out of memory" was displayed (although it had nothing to do with memory). Workaround applied.

98.3b Internet Explorer does start now without error message.

98.3b Recurring timer does work now with every recurring time, also with 8 minutes.

98.3a Found an implicit lost handle that ate up memory rather quickly. Investigated lost handles in all places. This has been fixed.
