- Here I listed the changes from ZShell V2.3 to V2.4.
- Because most things made were bugfixes I was too lazy to update both
- documentations. ZShell V2.4 has a better debugging environment and
- with this I discovered some hidden bugs (no problem to start ZShell
- from itself).
-
- New Features:
- * Application-Window: You can drop Workbench-Icons into the ZShell-Window.
- * Application-Icon accepts dropping of Icons on it.
- * Check-Flag shows writes to low memory (the first KByte, this only works
- on 68000 CPU's to substitute Enforcer) and changes of locks in system.
- * "show task" shows whether a command is redirected and in background
- * "DIE taskdescription" removes task (and console-window) from system.
- * "copy" uses dots as progress indicator: each dot is 50000 bytes.
- * Debug-Flag shows substitution of aliases if not in script mode. If in
- script mode it shows the executed commandline and redirection is disabled.
- * If an error during starting occurs, there will be an erroroutput.
- * The WildStar-Flag is set, so you can use "*" instead of "#?" with
- all commands.
- * "Welcome !"-Text on starting
- * Hide-Flag to disable hiding of the cursor, so output will be slower.
- * If there was a Forbid() or Disable() call without Permit() or Enable(),
- the system will be rescued and a message appears.

- Bugfixes:
- - Fixed bug in "run -c", "delete device" and "ctrl -r".
- - "assign" has crashed under OS1.3.
- - "memclk" and "border" use now the right window, not the actual window.
- - Redirection to ">M" has deleted the review-buffer.
- - Erroroutput is now written on the window, even if output is redirected.
- - "ask" and "more" get their input from window even if input is redirected.
- - Accentially exit of ZShell in noraw-mode fixed.
- - Input of special chars (with accent etc.) was not possible.
- - Result2 has not shown the right value.
- - "list" and "dir" have not freed memory if pressed CTRl-C.
- - The Lock() on "C:" after "Command not found" was not freed.
- - Better building of CLI-Interface (sets cli_CommandName/File).
-
-
- If there is an error during starting, a recoverable alert will appear
- and show a number. Here is a list what these numbers mean:
- Workbench-Start:
- 1: No mem for CLI-Struct
- 2: CLI-Table 20 limit
- 3: No current Dir
- 4: No icon.library
- 5: No icon
- OpenWindow:
- 10: Already opened
- 11: Cannot open output
- 12: Not interactive
- 13: Cannot open input
- Newcli:
- 15: Cannot copy CurrentDir
- Input:
- 20: Input failed
