- Zip Stamp History
- -----------------
-
- 5/92 1.0 - The first release of Zip Stamp!
-
- 5/92 1.1 - 1.1 is a minor bug fix version of Zip Stamp, basically
- the only changes are the program version numbers, also removes
- the little dots (.) seen during processing. This was
- included in the code for beta testing purposes only and had
- no effect on the programs operation. And finally recompiled
- source with newer high speed routines, Zip Stamp now processes
- files much faster! Also changed compilers, this had to do
- partly with the little dots (.) and higher speed comes as the
- result of this.
-
- 5/92 1.2 - Recompiled 1.1 source due to ZIPSTAMP.EXE being corrupted,
- Zip Stamp 1.1 was never released beyond beta testing. All
- bug fixes contained in 1.1 are present in this version. Program
- version numbers changed (again) to reflect the latest release.
-
- 6/92 1.3 - Zip Stamp now features full color! This has been my plans since
- the first release however just never got around to doing it.
- Zip Stamp now no longer displays PKZIP.EXE's title scrn during
- processing, it now logs this to a temporary file ZIPSTAMP.TMP,
- it then deletes this file when complete. Zip Stamp now tests
- for error levels returned by PKZIP.EXE to determine whether the
- archive is a ZIP file, this speeds up the program greatly since
- it no longer spends time trying to process a non ZIP file.
- Added a help screen, by typing Zip Stamp on the command line
- without any drive or path specified will bring up a help screen
- for a quick explanation of installing and operating Zip Stamp.
- Zip Stamp now displays an error screen if a fatal error occured
- during the excecution of PKZIP.EXE this can be caused for many
- reasons, for example not enough memory, disk full etc, the
- program will display an internal processing error if the
- archive is unable to be processed. Added a unregistered 20
- second delay to the program, this is one more reason to become
- a registered user (hint, hint). Zip Stamp now features a
- registration key file for registered users, that will display
- registration numbers on the main title screen. Made a few
- modifications to the source to tighten up the code a bit.
- And finally made a few minor changes to the documentation file
- to add page breaks, a few extra notes on the program etc.
