- Update History of WIZ
- ---------------------
-
- 1.6 1/28/91
- Initial public release
-
- 1.7 2/13/91
- Bug fixes
-
- 1.8 3/8/91
- Changed "-g" operation. Quit as soon as we hit the correct
- one. Sound an alarm bell when we set disk/directory.
-
- 1.81 (not released)
- * Fix for huge disks. I tested with 100+ MB disk, but failed
- to test with a nearly full disk. Result=BUG!! -- (overflow in
- intermediate calculation, converting cluster to sector
- number.) Thanks, Eddie, for running DOS 4.01 with one huge
- >32MB partition--which all the gurus recommend against!
-
- 1.9 4-23-92
- * Fixed bug in handling full root directory.
- * Changes in walking the directory tree. Made it
- non-recursive; changed the way I collect pathname to print.
- * Added -c switch.
- * Fix bug in handling a sub-directory that is exactly and
- evenly full, with no next cluster.
-
- 1.91
- * Slightly faster
- * Added -a switch
-
- 2.00 6/4/91
- * Slightly smaller and faster.
- * Creeping featurism!!
- * Added -l switch, to look inside archives
- * Decided that the ability to look inside achives should
- signify a new major version, so it's now 2.0
-
- 2.1 6/23/91
- * Mod for stacker container files.
- * Speeded up some filename checks (2 times in some cases)
-
- 2.2 7/4/91
- * Better disk-name processing. Added WIZ environment
- variable.
- * Fixed bug introduced in 1.9 on pattern matching of
- directory-names, with dot in pattern & no extent.
- * Reset counts at the start of each path.
-
- 2.3 9/29/91
- * Fixed matching of directory names (a very subtle bug!!)
- * Added -z flag (for other programs to call WIZ).
- * Changed -g0 to query at each matching file.
- * Changed date format. Included seconds in the time.
- * Added checking for the "other" floppy disk, if there is only
- one configured on the computer.
-
- 2.4 1/9/92
- * Changed order of size/date/time to be in the same as DIR.
- * Re-fixed bug in directory matching. It was even more subtle
- than I thought.
- * Removed seconds from the time.
- * Added -b switch, to allow it to look at normal files, and
- inside archives, on the same pass thru the disk(s). This
- was the single most requested modification.
- * Added ability to recursively look in archives.
- * If no pattern specified, but only switches, assume "*".
- * Some more speed-up optimization; some minor bugs fixed,
- including another one with HUGE disks.
- * Added -m switch.
- * Check for CTRL-BREAK flag (not CTRL-C!!), to bail out
- quickly.
-
- 2.5 2/26/92
- * Seems I made a "running release" of v2.4, (bad, bad me!)
- This gets things back in sync.
- * Allow missing default disk set in WIZ environment, and allow
- "/foo" switches for RCD & WIZ.
-
- 2.6 3/18/92
- * Added check & error msg on disk error.
-
- 2.7 4/22/93
- * Added "today's date" options to the -d switch.
- * Made it work for Novell & Lantastic networked drives.
- * -n switch, to bypass networked drives.
- * Added ability to limit the printout by directory-name.
- * Added -e option.
- * Added support for DOS 6.0 "DBLSPACE"
-
- 2.7a 7/19/93
- * Fixed bug with -q switch.
- * Quit (no error message) on un-assigned DBLSPACE disk.
-
- 2.8 12/16/93
- * Fixed bug-an output character was NULL instead of a space.
- * "-pp" will not print the header/trailer, for piping the
- output to other programs.
- * Another bug fix with "-q".
- * Added DUBLDISK check.
- * Check for directory validity.
- * Removed "-z" flags; redirecting output and "-pp" makes more sense.
- * Fixed a bug with huge directories, which popped up with DBLSPACE.
- * Message for "-ll" recursion on compressed archive.
- 2.8a 1/25/94
- * Fixed bug in -q when -ll is also given.
-
- 2.9 4/21/94
- * Added character ranges ([....]) in the filename pattern.
- * Allow space between drive(s) and pattern.
- * Fixed bug in scanning LHA & ARJ archives.
- * Turn off SMARTDRV (read: DUMBDRV) during scan. SMARTDRV actually
- takes longer!!
- * Added "-4" option, to search 4DOS file descriptions.
-
- 2.9a 8/8/94
- * Added DRVSPACE support (DOS 6.22 version of DBLSPACE)
- * Fix bug with trailing dot.
-
- 3.1 10/3/94
- * Fixed `-q\foo' scan to skip directory trees that don't match
- in the first part.
- * Added FDUP
-
- 3.2 2/1/95
- * Fixed bug in disk I/O, & removed accidental recursion
- * Added -i option to FDUP
-
- 3.2a 2/25/95
- * Fixed bug in fdup, if a file had 0xFF or 0xFE as the 1st char.
-
- 3.3 5/15/95
- * Fixed bug, now it works with Windows 95
-
- 3.4 7/20/95
- * Fixed to properly work with lowercase filenames in a ZIP file.
- (Info-ZIP does this.)
- * Bound go32 stub with FDUP32, so you don't need go32.exe.
