- P - C O M P R E S S V 2.3
-
- This version is a replacement for version 2.1 circulated on Fish Disk
- #595.
-
- The main changes are:
-
- It is now possible to directly overwrite a disk, drawer or single file
- with its compressed image.
-
- A new Compress option HEXEC (HunkExec) is included. This strips
- executables of unwanted symbol and debug hunks. It can be used alone
- or in conjunction with EXEC.
-
- A selection of alternative color palettes is provided.
-
- Indication is given of progress when compressing or decompressing
- large files.
-
- A menu has been added to show an 'about' text and provide another means
- of quitting.
-
- A tendency to close down the programme on meeting minor difficulties
- (such as not being able to find a file) has been corrected.
-
-
- The drawer also has the latest version of P-Reader which now provides
- a choice of screen colours (click gadget between the NOP and NOC gadgets),
- and scrolling (hold LMB to scroll down, RMB to scroll up).
-
- Both of these new facilities are available for non-illustrated files and
- also for illustrated files when the NOP (No Pics) gadget is switched on.
