DW_TIC History File

2.01              -  Oops, forgot to post announcements for incoming files.
                     (Hatching did have announcements posting) Fixed.
                     
                     I had added some code to my PCB tool library for 
                     looking up conference MSG files, so I've incorporated
                     it into DW_SM. Pressing F2 while in the MsgFile
                     field for an Area (either Add, Edit, or import)
                     will prompt you for a conference number, then look 
                     up the MSG File entry from the CNAMES files. Press
                     escape to abort.

                     There was no way to change a feed back to 0 once
                     it was selected to something else. Now, just F2 to
                     get the popup list, and hit ESC which will reset it to 
                     0.


2.00  - 8-27-97   -  Fixed (I hope) alternate spawn routine for executing
                     the various command lines so that the path and extension
                     isn't required if the program/batch file can be found
                     in the current directory or along the path.
                     If you have problems with it, try including the full
                     path and extension to the file.
                     

2.00b -  08/97    -  This is a complete re-write of DW_TIC from the 
                     ground up, in C. It is still owned by ZT Technologies
                     but all programming has been turned over to
                     Herbert Bushong (me). 

                     Since it has been totally re-written, I have been
                     able to implement several features that would have
                     been "difficult" at best, to implement in the old 
                     version. All the config files have been completely
                     re-structured, and will require a complete install.
                     
                     The System Manager program was built in parallel 
                     with Tic Processing program (actually before it!)
                     To make configuration easy and painless.

                     A couple of important major new features deserve 
                     mentioning:
                        - extensive Online Help was added to DW_SM
                            and Interactive Hatching in DW_TIC. Most
                            of the program text is also stored in the 
                            compressed help file to reduce the size of the 
                            EXE's.

                        - Tossing when Hatching. Now you can hatch files
                          and toss them to your BBS directories, all at
                          the same time if you desire! 

                        - Passthru areas have been implemented with 
                          automatic linking/unlinking to the hub as
                          nodes add/drop areas defined as passthrough.

                        - Most of the limits have been expanded greatly.
                          up to 65535 Nodes, Feeds, and Akas and Drops
                          per area can be defined.
                          Areas have a limit of 2^32 Area definitions.


                     This version will run a bit slower than previous 
                     versions when processing files because of the expanded
                     limits mentioned above. This is because the program will
                     have to look up information more often on disk. 
                     A good disk-cache should alleviate much of the delays,
                     and I'm still looking at ways to wring as much speed
                     as possible out of it.
