- The following is a list of improvements, corrections and/or enhancements made to
- Label Magic and are fully implemented in version 1.10:
-
-
- o CGA SUPPORT - The Color Graphics Adaptor (CGA) is now fully supported by Label
- Magic, including the icon editor.
-
- o SAFER ICON SAVES - In earlier versions if you saved an icon under a name
- identical to one that already existed the original was automatically
- overwritten by the new one. But, in this new release you are prompted as to
- whether or not the older icon should be replaced.
-
- o FASTER ICON UNPACKING - The icon "unpacking" subroutine has been converted to
- assembler for better speed. The new routine operates about eight times faster
- than the original. This makes browsing through icons much faster. Also, the
- routines used for displaying icons have been optimized. In general, any
- Label Magic feature that reads icons from disk works more efficiently.
-
- o IMPROVED WINDOWS - Text windowing routines have been completely replaced in
- an effort to keep RAM requirements low and to improve shadowing reliability.
- Some earlier versions had problems with window shadowing.
-
- o TEXT MODE RESTORATION - Version 1.10 returns the computer to its original
- text mode setting upon exiting the program. This includes the EGA/VGA 43/50
- line modes. For instance, if you are in the VGA 50 line mode and enter Label
- Magic then it will automatically switch you to the 25 line mode and then back
- to 50 line when you're finished.
-
- o DOS SHELL (DOS 4.00) - The DOS shell option of LABEL MAINTENENCE has been
- improved so that the "ECHO OFF" is no longer visible under DOS versions above
- 3.3.
