Version 5.01 - March 10,1993
-       Added new pre-defined array, "EQUITY", which contains the 
        equity for each date in a profit test. See EQUITY.TAS script.
        The EQUITY array is available at, and during a Profit Test.
        EQUITY = CASH {+ or -} NUMBER OF SHARES * CURRENT_SHARE PRICE
        using plus for Long positions, and minus for Short positions
Version 5.02 - March 11, 1993
-	Added Min(a,b) function to find minumum of two values a and b	
-	Added Max(a,b) function to find maximum of two values a and b	
-	Added MinVal(a) function to find minimum of array a
-	Added MaxVal(a) function to find maximum of array a
-       Price Graph now contains VOLUME histogram in the lower 10% 
        of the graph.
-       Added ability to print graph by keyboard command while viewing
        the graph. Type the "P" character when a graph is displayed and
        the graph will be printed according to the settings in your
        Printer Setup screen.
Version 5.04 - March 20, 1993
-       Made internal function call stack dynamic to allow larger
        calling parameter lists (e.g., AGET function for hundreds of 
        fields).
-       Added default directories for #OUTPUT_FILE and AOpen files
-       Added TICKER_LIST pre-defined variable which contains the 
        name of the current ticker list.
-       Added MAXPAIR(a1,a2) function to return the pair-by-pair
        maximum of each data point in array a1 and a2
-       Added MINPAIR(a1,a2) function to return the pair-by-pair
        minimum of each data point in array a1 and a2
-       Added x= SIGN(a) function to return the "sign" of each element
        in array "a" according to the following definition:
                If a[i] greater than zero, x[i] = +1
                if a[i] less than zero,    x[i] = -1
                if a[i] is zero,           x[i] = 0
-       Modified PrintGraph function so that it honors the Page Size
        setting used in the SETUP/PRINTER OPTIONS menu setting. This 
        will provide up to four graphs per printed page. High resolution
        printing is recommended for the Quarter Page setting.
-       Fixed problem with Yes/No responses for international users.
-       Added #COMPRESS command. Specify W,M,Y, or n for Weekly, Monthly
        Yearly, or by "n" bars.
-       Added COMPRESS option for Selection and Profit Test options
-       Added Minumum Quotes setting to Profit Test
-       Added Fixed commission amount to Profit Test
-       Added ability to sort ticker list from ticker selection screen.
-       Removed "Do you want to quit" interrogation from the main menu.
Version 5.06, April 4, 1993
-       Added LINECOLORS function to set the colors of lines drawn
        on a graph. The color variable names are:
        _BLACK               _BLUE                _GREEN       
        _CYAN                _RED                 _MAGENTA     
        _BROWN               _LIGHTGRAY           _DARKGRAY    
        _LIGHTBLUE           _LIGHTGREEN          _LIGHTCYAN   
        _LIGHTRED            _LIGHTMAGENTA         _YELLOW      
        _WHITE       
        Each array drawn by the Graph command will take the color
        given by the LINECOLORS i-th argument. See the BBAND.TAS
        script example for the use of the colors to set both the
        top and bottom Bollinger Bands to light red.
        LINECOLORS with no arguments will reset the colors to the
        default settings.                
-       Added BGcolor(color) function to set the background color
        of a graph
-       Added TextColor(color) function to set the text color (legends
        annotations, dates) of a graph
Version 5.10, April 8, 1993
-       Added ASeek(h,s) function that looks for a record starting with 
        the initial string value "s" in the file opened with handle "h". 
        If the string "s" is found, the function returns 1, otherwise 
        it returns 0. 
        As an example of use, suppose you have a file that contains
        the ticker symbol and the P/E in a file called PE.DAT.
        Then, if you do 
        Prolog handle = AOpen('PE.DAT','r');
        if ASeek(handle,TICKER) = 1 Then
        Begin
                t : String; 
                pe: Number;
                AGet(handle,t,pe);
                Writeln(t,pe);
        End;
        You will get a listing of ticker symbols and P/E's for those
        found in the file.
        Be sure to AClose the file in your Epilog. See the sample
        script AIO.TAS and AIO.DTA for a complete example.
