- Revision History
- ----------------
- November 02. 1990
- Version 3.0W
- Created this version to run on computers that refused to run version 3.01
- due to a new and unforseen hardware bug between windows and a very few
- computers. We implemented most of the changes execpt for the function that
- was causing the strange hardware problem. Users of version 3.0W will have
- all of the functionality of version 3.0W.
-
- October 20, 1990
- Version 3.0W
- As promised version 3.0W of Zip Manager will now function properly
- on computers with the bios compatibility problem that version 3.0
- detected. We discovered a way to bypass the this incompatibility and
- deliver a stable product for all windows users.
-
- We are developing a separate program called WinDoctor that will examine your
- current hardware and report any incompatibilities found. In addition it
- will check you ram to verify that every chip is in proper working condition.
- It will also check your video card and video memory for any incompatibilities.
- WinDoctor should be available around the first of December 1990. You are
- welcome to call the BBS nearer the release date for further information.
-
- October 2, 1990
- Published and included in the documentation the zmdiag.txt file after
- discovering that the way in which Zip Manager executes its DOS programs
- gave it the uncanny ability to locate and identify bios chips that were
- not fully compatible with windows.
-
- September 21, 1990
- Initial release of Zip Manager 3.0
-
- Before you read this short file we would like to ask a favor.
- Please UPLOAD THIS ZIP to your favorite BBS. There are many users

- ------------------------> EVERYONE READ THIS <----------------------------
-
- Before you tear off and start Zipping and UnZipping the daylights out of your
- files. It is IMPERATIVE that if you were using version 2.X of Zip Manager
- that you read the Installation portion on the documentation. Failure to do
- so could and most likely WILL cause you to have a problem trying to
- run Zip Manager 3.0W It is a completely new program that has nothing in
- common with the previous versions. You should also read the update.doc file
- for important information specific to version 3.0W of Zip Manager.
-
- ----------------------> Printing The Documentation <------------------------
-
- All of the documentation including this file, is formatted to print correctly
- on a Dot Matrix or HP LaserJet(or Compatible Printer). Included is a program
- called prndocs.exe. It will print all of the documentation including this
- file to the printer installed on LPT1. If your prefer to use the program
- before reading the documentation, at least be sure to read the update.doc
- file.
-
- From everyone here at Moon Valley Software I would like to express my
- sincerest gratitude. It was a pleasure writing this program for all of
- the users who were both kind in their criticisms of version 2.X, and offered
- many of the wish list items that made it into this version.
-
- Yours for better computing...
