- Differences between version 2.00 and version 1.21: February 21, 1988
-
- Major maintenance upgrade. Improved error trapping on all file
- i/o.
-
- Differences between version 1.21 and version 1.20: February 17, 1988
-
- Major maintenance upgrade revises the printout routines to work
- properly with certain "nonstandard" printers. Results are not
- guaranteed, but there should be few or no line feed without
- carriage return problems from now on. Printer MUST be able to
- execute CR without LF, and should respond normally to ASCII
- control characters FF (formfeed) and CAN (cancel).
-
- Differences between version 1.20 and version 1.16: February 16, 1988
-
- This is a maintenance update which fixes a possible problem
- with journal entry numbers, as noted by some users. Also,
- repairs the "invisible box" problem when running MYGL with a
- CGA card and a black-and-white CRT.
-
- Version 1.20 is compiled using the Microsoft C Optimizing
- Compiler, version 5.0.
-
- Differences between version 1.16 and version 1.15:
-
- * Maintenance update, vanishing cursor in Reports Menu fixed;
- cursor remained hidden on Escape from screen reports.
-
- Differences between version 1.15 and version 1.12:
-
- * General Journal now allows an account number more than once.
- Amounts are merged into a single entry. A "transaction"
- that evaluates to a one-sided zero balance will still be
- ignored, same as before. Allows adding-machine-style data entry
- in General Journal, as in Check Register.
-
- * General Journal rule checking (the "THIMK" message) has been
- extended somewhat to warn of more "common errors". However, as
- before, there is still no prohibition, only a warning.
-
- * Wildcards on the MS-DOS command line are no longer allowed.
-
- * Query Accounts dialogue now honors the F3 key to examine the
- Chart of Accounts.
-
- * The default date is now reset to today's date (as read from
- the system clock) whenever the Main Menu appears.
-
- * Service Charge memorandum field no longer includes backslashes.
