- LIST Version 7.3 WHAT'S NEW 1/31/90
-
- | - The new LIST environment variable tells LIST where to place temporary
- | file for the ViewArc and archive extraction functions, e.g.
- |
- | SET LIST=C:\TEMP
-
- | - The new ctrl-Y command saves the current position as the bookmark,
- | alt-Y repositions to the last bookmark.
-
- | - The new /K command line switch disables the mouse. Both the /M and /K
- | mouse options are clonable.
-
- | - The new Ctl-right and 1 commands restart displaying with the first file
-
- | - A second Help screen is now available in the Plus version which shows
- | all of the Ctrl- and cursor key functions
-
- A great improvement in speed is available when all filter options are
- set off. Use alt-Z to display the toggles on the bottom line. An
- option is off when its corresponding letter, e.g. 'J' for alt-J junk
- filter or 'T' for the alt-T tab expansion filter, is in lower case.
-
- The X command exits to DOS and clears the screen. In the Plus version,
- you are now returned to the original directory.
-
- The ctrl-I command has been added to the Plus version. It allows
- setting the TAB interval to values other than the standard 8. Ctrl-I
- prompts you to enter the new interval, which can be from 1 to 99.
-
- The /Ftext command line parameter to begin a text search through all
- selected files now invokes the Find function which is not case
- sensitive.
-
- In the File Selection (alt-V) menu:
- - the ESCape and Quit commands no longer exit, they return to
- the display of the last file you viewed.
- - the 1-up display now includes file attributes.
-
- New file selection commands have been added:
- - Alt-C to clone settings
- - Alt-X to exit to DOS and show the original screen
- - Q now returns to viewing the last file
- - X exits to DOS in the original directory
- - F10 exits to DOS
-
- - Command line switches are now supported in all versions.
-
- - The Viewarc function now assumes that .EXE and .COM files are LHARC
- files. Otherwise, if a file does not have the .ARC, .LZH, or .ZIP
- extension, the file is assumed to be a .ARC file.
-
- - The Help (F1) screen now only occupies the current window.
-
- - The F2/F4 keys for setting the color of the found line now operate on
- the Find line, i.e. the line where found text is displayed. The
- entire found line is now highlighted, and the found text is shown in
- reversed video.
