-
- 0.00 - Same idea as Multi-Boot but designed as a
- logon system. Password protection, forced
- logon etc. Decided this was a little
- pointless so I kept the same idea of
- several boot files and it evolved into
- MulitBoot.
-
- 1.00 - First released version of Multi-Boot, sent
- to AcornUser as a *INFO submission.
-
- 1.00a - Very minor change to something, I've
- since forgotten.
-
- 1.00b - Added one line to the code which quits the
- application when Escape is pressed. Usefull
- when you don't want to bother loading any
- of the boot files.
-
- 1.10b - Message bar at bottom of main window.
- (I was bored.)
-
- 1.11b - Fixed a bug
- Drew a high-res Aztecsoft logo.
-
- --------
-
- Possible future developments:
-
- • More complex routine for reading the
- scripts directory. Any directories
- inside this will be added as sub-menus.
- Absolutely no idea on how to do this
- at the moment!
-
- • Unlimited number of bootfiles
- (currently 10)
-
- • Fix any bugs that appear
-
- • Draw a high-res sprite and logo
-
- • On-line help
-
- • Install program
-
- • More keyboard shortcuts
-
- • Display current time at the bottom
- of the main window.
- The RM logon system for the school
- PC network (I never use it) does this
- and it would be a nice touch.
-
- • Second part to the application that
- runs all the time and tells you what
- configuration the computer is in,
- i.e. Which boot file has been used.
- Would this be any use?
- I started to write this bit but got
- sidetracked with another project.
-
- • Facility to make the tea, choose
- winning lottery numbers, slag of
- Microsoft, Intel etc. and calculate
- the number of seconds left to the
- year 2000, as well as any other
- really useful things I think of.
-
-
- That'll do for now, any comments or *money* should
- be sent to me as soon as possible to pay for
- OvationPro.
-
- Thanks for reading this far, I don't suppose
- anybody ever reads these version history bits,
- but why change the habbit of a platform?
-
- Any *WHY* do Acorn insist on starting the version
- numbers at 0.00?
