XFERPRO version 1.1.1 was released in May 1996. The following new capabilities/fixes are provided: - When dropping files and the default decoding is set to "based on data input," failure to decode will provide the user an option to encode the file. This is required since the file extension and the /E encode option cannot be used to determine that encoding is desired when dragging- and-dropping files. - Improved MIME base64 header interpretation logic to determine filename when data is split across multiple lines as well as locating encoded data. - MIME base64 encoding header information updated when creating multiple enclosures. - Capability to accept encoded data using only carraige returns whereby previously a newline was required. - Ability to manually force binhex decoding from the Configure|Decode dialog box. - Ability to specify which encoding method to use with command line operation (see -E command line argument) - The users desktop color scheme is used instead of a fixed Xferpro color scheme. - Multiple enclosures now supported for binhex 4.0 decoding. - Binhex encoding now uses MIME headers to allow interoperability with some newer email programs which don't support raw binhex data. Xferpro Binhex decoding also supports binhex files wrapped in MIME email headers. - Binhex file type/creator (for Macintosh decoders) changed from TEXT/BnHq to the PC file extension and XFRP. For example, a binhexed GIF file would have the type/creator set to GIF/XFRP. - 5.25" diskette no longer available for ordering. - Improved and updated on-line help. - Setup program can update the Windows 95 registry for filename association (when running under Windows 95). - Setup program improved to disallow the install and destination directories being the same. Previously, setup would just fail in the destination directory was the same as where the install files were located. - Sabasoft is now a member of the Association of Shareware Professionals (ASP). The on-line help has been updated to reflect the ASP requirements. - Credit cards are now accepted for payment, and the on-line order form reflects the new options. ========= XFERPRO version 1.1 was released in August 1995. The following new capabilities are provided: - Binhex 4.0 encoding and decoding to allow communication with Apple Macintosh computers. Only the Macintosh data fork is supported. - Support of two more multipart formats: America On-Line and Squirrel 3.0. - Decode method (i.e. UU, XX, MIME, and Binhex 4.0) is automatically determined from file data rather than file extension, freeing the user from having to know particular decoding details. This makes XferPro even easier to use than ever. To support this capability, the default is that all files on the command line are assumed to be decoded (see /E option below for encoding files on the command line). - /E option: indicates that all files on the command line should be encoded rather than the default of decoding them (part of above capability). - Multiple enclosure support for both encoding and decoding. This capability operates with file formats of single file for UU or XX methods, and also for MIME and Binhex methods. - /O option: you can now specify the output file on the command line for both encoding and decoding. - Additional on-line help was added for trouble shooting problems. In addition, the user is reminded to double-check the output whenever any built-in decoding integrity checks are manually over-ridden. - The decoding default was changed to treating all specified files as part of a large multiple part archive instead of several individual files to decode. This can be changed back to the original option via a configuration command if so desired. - Additional logic was added to help better decode multiple part formats. - Filename processing was added to ensure the specified output filename contained in the encoded file can be accepted by DOS/Windows. =============== XFERPRO version 1.0 was released for the first time in July 1994. The followng capabilities are provided: - Support of MIME 1.0, UU, and XX encoding and decoding. - Support of 16 single and multiple file formats commonly used to send information and binary files via internet e-mail. Instead of providing yet another non-standard multiple part format, interoperability with many existing UU, XX, and MIME encoders is provided. - Exclusive ability to accept multiple parts in any order so the user doesn’t have to waste time piecing them together manually or with separate programs. Let XFERPRO do the work for you! - Full drag-and-drop support. - Completely configurable to a user’s favorite options. - Extensive on-line help, error checking, status information, and user choices during operation. - Options to allow and facilitate program launch from other applications. - An electronic on-line order form is provided which allows the user to type the registration information into a dialog box and print the order instead of requiring the user to first print an order form and then hand writing the order. In addition, the on-line order form automatically calculates the order price. - Automated installation program to simplify installation.
