CHANGES IN VERSION 4.53: Improved pagination Updated documentation CHANGES IN VERSION 4.54: Minor internal changes CHANGES IN VERSION 4.6: Added startup parameters Changed program defaults Improved screens and menus Internal changes for increased speed QUICKNUM renamed CHALD Updated documentation CHANGES IN VERSION 5.0: Improved user interface Improved screen appearance Added EGA/VGA graphics support The program detects what kind of graphics support your system has and adjusts itself accordingly. However, it is possible that on some systems, such as certain laptop computers or systems that have a monochrome VGA monitor, the program may not be able to detect exactly what kind of display you have. If you believe the program is not creating the right kind of display for your monitor, you can force it by adding a parameter to the command line, telling it what graphics mode to use. For example, if you want to force the program into EGA mode, use this command line: NUMBERS MODE:EGA. To force VGA mode, use NUMBERS MODE:VGA. To force text mode, use NUMBERS MODE:TEXT. If it appears the program is trying to display color on a monochrome monitor, you can force it into monochrome mode with this line: NUMBERS MONO. To force color mode, use this line: NUMBERS COLOR. If you are using the program on a dual-floppy system, you may need to keep the executable program file on drive A and the data files you create on drive B. In this case, you need to tell the program where to put the data files. Start the program with this command: NUMBERS B. If your drive letter is something other than B, use the correct letter in the command instead of B. If necessary, you can combine the command parameters, like this: NUMBERS MONO B CHANGES IN VERSION 5.1: Added support for monochrome graphics monitors Changes in error trapping system CHANGES IN VERSION 5.2: Added DOS 6.x compatibility Note new email address: 74774.403@compuserve.com For support and product information on CompuServe, GO RKWEST. ~~~END OF UPDATE.TXT
