-
- Bug fix - Relationship reports were not printing all of a person's
- descendants. It would stop searching after the children.
-
- Feature removed - Option to send Person Report: all persons of same
- surname, to the screen. It wasn't working correctly and it wasn't
- such a great option anyway since it didn't look exactly like the
- printed version...so I killed it.
-

- surname, to the screen. See last entry...

-
- Change - Altered the width of the Family Charts so that older printers
- that do not support more than 132 cpl could print them.
-
- Change - Altered the left print margin of several reports (almost all
- blank forms) so that some older printers could print them.
-
- Change - Blank chart: Relationship Chart: Altered the chart's width
- so that some older printers could print them.
-
- Change - Altered the data structure of the Printer Driver Database so
- that it would be more versatile and thereby support more printers.
-
- New feature - Printer Driver Database: Added an Alt-A (ASCII Input)
- command because I got tired of looking at ASCII charts to determine
- what a character's decimal value was.
-
- Change - Printer drivers: For those printers that cannot support 20
- cpi mode, I entered the 17 cpi mode commands in their place. If the
- printer is a wide-carriage, satisfactory results might be achieved -
- I hope....
-
- New feature - Printer drivers: Added support for the HP Laserjet,
- Epson LQ-850/950/1050, Toshiba P351SX, Mannesmann Tally MT180, Citizen
- 180-D, Citizen GSX-140, and Okidata 320 series printers.
-
- Comment - Because of the changes to some reports, some users of older
- versions of Family Scrapbook will notice a difference in the print
- margins. This is a side-effect of trying to support other printers.
- I'm still trying to scheme up a way to better handle margins...
-
- Comment - Many of the printer drivers were based on information out
- of printer manuals and not from actually testing them on the printers
- themselves. Please contact me if any problems are found.
-
-
- v1.01 Released on 7/18/91
-
- This is the first official release of the program.
-
-
- v1.00 Never officially released.
-
- This is a Beta test version that was never supposed to be
- distributed. One of my testers didn't follow instructions. The filename
- is F-57.ZIP and it is an unfinished copy of the program. It also has
- several bugs, some of which could scramble your data. If you see it, DO
- NOT USE IT and encourage those who have it to ERASE it!
