- ============================ DISKDUPE.NEW =====================================
-
- This file describes the features that have been added to DiskDupe
-
- ===============================================================================
-
- ==============
- Version 4.09a
- 10/6/93
- ==============
-
- IBM PS/2 Compatibility
- ----------------------
- DiskDupe is now fully compatible with IBM PS/2 computers.
-
- Code and Buffer CRC's
- ---------------------
- Added checks to the DiskDupe code, disk buffers and image files to guard
- against memory problems. Error 906, "Buffer memory has been corrupted"
- indicates the image file was changed or that the memory in your computer
- might be bad. Error 907, "Code memory has been corrupted" indicates that
- there might be a problem with a TSR writing over the DiskDupe code.
- Error 908, "Image File is Bad" indicates that the image file has been
- corrupted. Any of these errors indicate a serious problem which should
- be fixed. Image files that were made with previous versions of DiskDupe
- are updated automatically to include the added CRC's the first time that
- they are read by the 4.07 version (unless they are marked as read only).
-
-
- /DAT Improvements
- -----------------
- The command line option /DAT can now be used anywhere on the command line
- and all other command line parameters will override the information in
- the specified data file.
-
- EXE File without Overlays
- -------------------------
- The DiskDupe software now comes with only one executable file (no overlay).
- DiskDupe requires about 350K of conventional memory to function.
-
- Relay Bugs Fixed
- ----------------
- Previously when the using the relay feature if a new source disk was of
- a different density from the previous source disk DiskDupe would report an
- error. Also if the number of copies was set to 1 with the source set to
- Relay then DiskDupe would not copy continuously. Both of these bugs have
- been fixed.
-
- Lockup on Machines with Older BIOS Fixed
- ----------------------------------------
- Earlier versions of DiskDupe 4.0 would lock up (beeping continuously) on some
- 286's without BIOS support for extended keyboard functions.
-
- EMS/XMS Not Used
- ----------------
- An earlier version of DiskDupe Trial listed the EMS and XMS Limits as
- "No Limit", when in fact the Trial version does not include EMS and XMS
- support. The current version lists the EMS and XMS limits accurately as
- "Not Used". Also the only color option is listed as Black and White,
- where it was mistakenly listed as Cyan in an earlier version.
