RSU 1.2a Release Note                        28. November 1993


Version 1.2a corrects an error that led to freezing when the
Bios() function did not find the word it searched for.
Payment by check is now possible in the US and Europe.

Version 1.2 adds two functions:

- Commands that end in a colon (:) are no longer considered
  a label, unless they contain only letters, digits and the
  underscore character (_) and are at least two characters
  long (plus the colon).

- A new variant of the If command is added, which allows for
  automatic detection of certain hardware:

  If Bios(<hexadr>-<hexadr>) = <text> Then


Version 1.1d corrects a bug in SynchronizeDir, which might
have caused total crashes under rare circumstances. It also
contains a speed shortcut for faster copying of whole
directories. Certain messages appear only with the /debug
switch now.

Version 1.1c corrects yet another bug in SynchronizeDir,
which didn't work at all under certain circumstances.
Echo now displays all graphics characters, in fact all
characters from 32 through 255. An unnecessary error message
in connection with IniAddLine was removed.

Version 1.1b corrects another bug in SynchronizeDir and no
longer considers embedded ";" characters (semicolons) as the
beginning of a comment.

Version 1.1a corrects a bug in the SynchronizeDir command.


These are the most important new features of version 1.1:

- If - If Not - Then - Else - End If command with Exist, Equal
  and comparison operators, replaces external EQUAL command

- Section commands can now handle all text files through new
  alternative section header syntax:  Rem [<section name>]

- Goto command

- Echo command for faster performance and better output

- SynchronizeDir command, replaces external SYNCDIR command
  and is much faster for large directories

- /debug command line parameter shows commands as they are
  executed

- Registered versions no longer display registration screen
