------------------------------------------------------------------------

   USE OF THIS PROGRAM BY OTHER THAN REGISTERED USERS OF QMPRO v1.50 IS
                       A VIOLATION OF THE LAW.


THIS PATCH IS FOR QMODEMPRO AND OLX.  THE PORTION OF THIS PATCH FOR OLX
IS FOR THE OLX V3 THAT IS SOLD AS A PART OF QMODEMPRO AND WILL NOT WORK
ON OLX V3 THAT IS A STAND-ALONE PROGRAM.

   * The patch process will ONLY operate on v1.50!!  If you have an
     earlier release you must first obtain and perform an update to
     v1.50.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

The update program consists of two parts, the executable patch 
program (PATCH.EXE) and the patch data files (QMPRO151.RTP &
QMOLX151.RTP). The patch data files contain all the information needed
to make changes in the old executable files and to track the application
of patches, even after multiple updates have been performed.

To perform the update follow these simple instructions:

You must patch your QmodemPro files and then patch your OLX files in
order to update both programs.


To perform the update to QmodemPro follow these simple instructions:

1.  Copy PATCH.EXE and QMPRO151.RTP to your QmodemPro directory.

2.  Check to make sure that the directory contains QMPRO.EXE QMPRO.OVR,
    QMPRO.HLP and QMPRO.LNG.  If any of these files are missing the patch
    program will not run.

3.  Change to the QMPRO directory and type:

     PATCH QMPRO151.RTP
     
     and press <ENTER>.

   * The patch process will ONLY operate on v1.50!!  If you have an
     earlier release you must first obtain and perform an update to
     v1.50.

4.  A successful patch process results a screen indicating that files
    were patched:

Next perform a similar procedure to update your OLX files:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
THIS PATCH IS FOR THE OLX THAT IS INCLUDED WITH QMODEMPRO AND
WILL NOT WORK ON OLX THAT WAS SOLD AS A STAND-ALONE PRODUCT.
------------------------------------------------------------------------


1.  Copy PATCH.EXE and QMOLX151.RTP to your OLX directory.

2.  Check to make sure that the directory contains OLX.EXE OLX.OVR,
    OLX.HLP and OLX.LNG.  If any of these files are missing the patch
    program will not run.

3.  Change to the OLX directory and type:

     PATCH QMOLX151.RTP

     and press <ENTER>.

4.  A successful patch process results in a screen indicating that files

Should you experience a problem is applying the patch please perform the
following steps before contacting technical support.

1. Reinstall the program that fails from your original QmodemPro
   distribution disks into a new temporary directory.

2. Perform the patch process as described above on the files in the new
   temporary directory.

3. If the patch is successful copy the patched files (.EXE, .OVR, .HLP &
   .LNG) from the temporary directory to your program directory.

   If the patch is still not successful contact technical support at
   805-334-2240 to resolve the situation.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

There were new QMGATE.EXE, QMGATE.DOC and QMGATE.HLP files released with
v1.51. These file are incdluded in the 1.51 update and should be placed
in your QmodemPro home directory.  Please refer to QMGATE.DOC for full
details on the new QMGATE program that supports CIS forum messages.  In
addition, a new script file CISSETUP.SCR is included which should be
placed in your script directory.

This balance of this file contains changes made in QmodemPro/OLX since
v1.0 in reverse chronological order,
------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you intend to make use of the new RIPscrip terminal emulation for
graphics, please read the section on RIP below for v1.50 and 1.51.

There is a new QMGate release with v1.51 that handles Forum messages.
See the separate documentaton file QMGATE.DOC which is in in your
QmodemPro directory (for those installing for the first time), or as a
part of the downloadable file QMGATE.ZIP, available to those upgrading
from prior releases.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

*  A conversion program is always being updated that converts Procomm
   Plus v1.1, Procomm Plus v2.0, Telix 3.x and Boyan 5.x. The latest
   version of the program is available for download from the MSI HQ BBS
   and is called FONCVT.ZIP.  This file is also available on the online
   services where MSI support is available.  See your Customer Access
   booklet for additional information on these online services.

QmodemPro v1.51

-  Added support in QMGATE for downloading CompuServe forum messages.
   See QMGATE.DOC for full documentation.

-  Added a [QmGate] button to the Alt+D dialog that will execute QMGATE
   if it is located in the QMPRO.EXE directory.  Also shortened the
   [Read New Mail] to just [Read New] and shortened the [Send Replies] to
   just [Send Rep] to make room for the new button.

-  Added a new command line switch /NODVMOUSE.  This allows DV users to
   run QMPro full screen in RIP mode and get a graphic mouse cursor.
   It actually overrides the DESQview detection code that makes use of
   the Quarterdeck mouse API calls, which cannot display a graphic mouse.
   This switch should be used wiht all versions of DV and DV/X.

-  Added support for placing the RIP icons for each dialing directory
   entry in separate areas.  The phonebook Revise entry dialog now has
   a field for the ICONS subdirectory name for RIP support.  If this field
   is filled in, icons for a particular BBS can be stored there.  This 8
   character field references the name of a subdirectory created beneath
   the phonebook subdirectory.  For example, if the icon entries for the
   MSI HQ BBS is set to MSIBBS and the entry for XYZ BBS is set to XBBS,
   and the phonebook is the default QMPRO.FON, the directory tree will
   look like:

     άC:\          (root directory)
     ΓάQMPRO       (main QMPRO directory)
     ³ΓΒά QMPRO    (directory named after phonebook)
     ³³Γά MSIBBS   (directory for MSI HQ BBS icons)
     ³³Γά XBBS     (directory for XYZ BBS icons)


   If the ICONS field is left blank, then the master ICONS directory will be
   used.

   If the ICONS field is filled in and the requested icon does not exist
   there, it will check the master ICONS directory before declaring it
   cannot be found.

   If you change the name of the Icons directory, the icons are moved to the
   new directory name and the old one is deleted.

   Alt-D/Delete dialog now has an additional checkbox to allow deleting just
   the icons associated with the entry.  The Icons and Icon Dir will not
   be deleted if another entry in the phonebook references the same Icon
   Directory. You will get a confirmation message box to this effect if this
   happens.

-  Support for ASCII transfers has been added to the Host mode.  To allow
   this,  ASCII Downloading has been modified to include a 60 second timeout
   feature.  If 60 seconds elapses from the last character received, the
   download will be considered "finished" and the file closed.  This is in
   addition to the standard ^Z EOF character to signal the end of transfer.

-  Upgraded RIP support to level 01.54.

-  Altered the RIP mouse to reappear much faster after painting a screen
   than in prior releases.

-  The RIP Palette is now preserved between text/graphic mode switches.

-  Fixed a bug in the RIP DEFINE_QUERY modes 1 and 2.  It has been discovered
   that the deferred query modes 1 and 2 remain active until specifically
   turned off, and that both can be enabled at the same time.  The RIP
   specification does NOT indicate that is how it works, but that -is-
   how they are supposed to work.  Now they do.

-  Made RIPscrip sounds honor the Beeps & Bells toggle.

-  Fixed RIP support for users of MONO VGA Display adapters.  The effect was
   that while in RIP mode, any switch back to a text screen was blank.

-  Fixed RIP support so that it correctly switches back to a 43/50 line text
   mode as appropriate during text operations.  Before, it would switch back
   to a 25 line mode and most dialogs would be split in half at the bottom
   of the screen.

-  Quicklearning a script that starts in RIP or switches to RIP was adding
   a line GRAPHICS RIP that was failing when executed.  This is now fixed
   with the correct Graphics keyword being RIP instead of RIPSCRIP.

-  Killed two birds with one stone.  The RIP text mode was always getting
   set back to the default color and the QMPRO.EMU was being updated
   every time QmPro ran.  Once I fixed the latter, the former cleared
   up.

-  RIP Radio Buttons had a problem when the SaveMouseFields and
   RestoreMouseFields were executed.  They were being redrawn with multiple
   buttons selected for the same group, and the templates were being sent
   for the selected buttons.

-  Added code to save and restore the Palette between Text and Graphic
   mode switches for one case which was overlooked.

-  Memory requirements for QmPro have been reduced about 20K to make more
   available for RIP graphics.

-  Fixed a screen glitch when the hardware video is set to 50 line mode
   during startup.  Also made Alt+2 recognize the startup video mode.

-  Fixed a problem where the mouse could disappear after seeing the warning
   dialog "Carrier detected, sent modem init?".

-  Made several fixes to the RPI Interface support.  Some UART registers were
   not being set back when RPI was unloaded.  Unloading the V42.DRV module
   after the connection was dropped was incorrect causing the memory to be
   "used up" and not returned to the HEAP.  The net effect was that you could
   connect once using RPI, but the next attempt rewarded you with a dialog
   that said "V42.DRV not loaded" and then a hang.

-  Fixed a phonebook load problem when Config/Phonebook specified a full
   drive:\path to the default phonebook to load.

-  Fixed a bug in the download "overwrite?" dialog where if you answered
   yes, it would go ahead and do an auto-increment if that was checked.
   Now, the file is erased and overwritten correctly.

-  Fixed the Script GET, GETR, GETN and GETNR.  Basically, they now match
   the documentation for Input and Output directives.
   
-  Made a fix to the VTxxx emulations.  There are some color codes that are
   specific to VT220 and VT320 emulation that set/reset the specific text
   attributes Underline, Blink, Bold, and Invisible.  Since QmPro has specific
   colors assigned to each of these, it is not possible to combine them to
   produce a unique color and allow for resetting the attributes.  What was
   happening was that an Underline code (^[[1m) could be received, the color
   would be changed to the defined underline color (Config/Emul/Colors), but
   would become "mangled" when the "Turn off Underline" code (^[[24m) was
   received.  So, any of the "Turn Off" attribute commands will now reset the
   screen color to the Normal color as if the ^[[0m command had been
   received.

-  Added support for some "weird" VT emulation esc sequences that a VAX may
   generate.  Specifically, the  ESC [ Pc G  command for ANSI absolute cursor
   column positioning within a line.  Others have been stripped to prevent
   garbage displaying on the screen.

-  WYSE-50 emulation had two problems.  1) the Protect Mode flags were
   reversed.  2) setting a cursor mode after the cursor was turned off did
   not turn the cursor back on.

-  Made a fix to the NASI/NACS preference dialog to handle Server, General
   and Specific names that contain an Underscore "_" character.  QmPro was
   stripping these making the connection require wildecard selections.

-  Fixed the Dialer when trying to dial a FAX so that the No Connect strings
   would be detected.  I.E. BUSY, NO DIALTONE etc.

-  Fixed Phonebook sorting where GROUP files might be lost if QmPro is run
   from a different drive other than the drive where the original Group files
   are stored.

-  Fixed a Status Msg dialog that pops up in the Dialer that could hang a
   script waiting for a response.  If scripting, these info type of dialogs
   will now be skipped.

-  New HLP and LNG files with this release to keep them current with the
   changes and new additions.


OLX v1.51 (note MAJOR version number change)
--------------------------------------------

-  OLX version number changed to 1.51 to match QmPro.  Registration
   number removed from tagline.

-  When forwarding a message to another conference, the originating
   BBS name is also included.

-  If the internal unzipper can't unpack a QWK packet then then external
   unzipper will automatically be tried.

-  Fixed problems with large numbers of conferences (above about 4500).

-  Internet address book entries are now automatically supported.

-  New macro @INBOX will copy any message to your Inbox.

-  Added support for OLX to work with QMGate and deal with merged
   QWK packets.

-  Added support for Usenet style headers in the message body.

-  Fixed the personal mail beep so it beeps when a message is
   addressed to your name in the QWK packet rather than your name
   in the registration information.

-  Added support for PCBoard 15.0 return receipts.

-  Added a @FOLDER macro for function keys to provide a way to quickly
   open a folder.

-  Added a switch in config to turn on and off word wrap of long messages.

-  Added a switch in config for skipping of messages that have already
   been read.

-  Fixed ANSI music support so it can be aborted with a keypress.

==========================================================================
QmodemPro v1.50

Manuals dated 6/1/93 on the title page contain almost all the information
listed below this point, and are current through v1.50.  The newest RIP
commands for the script language are the only items not inluded in the
6/1/93 manuals.


-  Added full support for RIPscrip graphics including mouse support from
   remote.  To activate RIP set the terminal emulation for the terminal
   or any dialing directory entry to RIP.

   Note that RIP makes use of EGA graphics and may not be used on
   systems without EGA capability.

   Attention DESQview users.  QmodemPro fully utilizes the DESQview
   mouse API to allow the mouse to be active in multiple re-sized
   DESQview windows.  However, the DESQview mopuse API does not provide
   a method of switching to EGA graphics mode and continuing to make use
   of the mouse.  If you intend to make use of the mouse in RIP
   emulation you must either leave DESQview and run QmodemPro from DOS
   or use DESQview/X which fully supports switching to a grphical mouse
   cursor.  We regret this situation, and are working with Quarterdeck
   Office Systems for an alternative solution.

   QmodemPro switches from text to graphics mode automatically when
   triggered by a RIP-capable host, and can be manually switched back by
   pressing the menu key, Alt Z.  This switch is very quick except when
   running under Windows.  When Windows is detected, the RIP switching
   between text and graphics takes a little longer because it has to
   write the graphics screen contents to a file and then restore it when
   it switches back. Non-windows users will not experience this disk
   write delay.

-  Quicklearn fully supports recording of RIP screens including mouse
   clicks, for playback.  Two new Script commands have been added,
   RIPKEY  and  RIPMOUSE.

      RIPKEY [character]  This is the HOTKEY character of a Rip Button
      if one exists on the graphics screen.  During playback, it will
      simulate pressing the hotkey for that character and the button
      will execute.

      RIPMOUSE [X coord] [Y coord]  This records the position of the
      mouse pointer when the mouse is clicked on a mouse button or mouse
      region. During playback, it will simulate moving the mouse pointer
      to the x,y coordinates specified and clicking the left mouse
      button.

-  Fixed a long-standing bug in the Script processor when it had to deal
   with WAITFOR commands that used expanded Ctrl character sequences.
   It was possible for Quicklearn to Record a Script that it could not
   play back correctly.  I found this when dealing with the new RIP
   script commands above.

-  A red dashed box appears on the screen when a RIP ICON Load command
   is received but does not exist in your ICONS directory.

-  The button support in RIP mode acts just like Windows and QmPro
   Dialogs.  Holding the mouse button down and moving off the button,
   will "unclick", and moving back on the button will "re-click" it. If
   you release the mouse button when it is "unclicked", the command is
   ignored.

-  Changes were made to the FAX code and timing to allow it to operate
   better with a wider variety of FAX modems.

-  Added remote/local printer support to VT100, VT102, VT220 and VT320.
   The new commands now supported include ESC[4i, ESC[5i, ESC[0i,
   ESC[?1i, ESC[?4i, ESC[?5i, ESC[?19h, ESC[?19l, ESC[?18h, ESC[?18l.

-  Fixed a bug in the VTxxx emulation color code ESC[0m to reset the
   correct color.

-  Added support for the Doorway Remote Printer redirection in ANSI and
   RIP modes.  Redirection prints to the defined printer (or file) as
   defined in Config/Files/Filename/Printer ID.

-  Made a minor tweak to the Ymodem/G Upload process to catch the first
   "G" from a remote a little quicker.  Should save 3-5 seconds in the
   startup phase.

-  Added a "/NOLOGO" command line option.  This will skip the ANSI logo
   and delay when QmPro is loaded.

-  Corrected a problem with the Shell to DOS code.  If a system has a
   16550 and it was enabled in the Device config, after a Shell it was
   not being re-enabled.  This also affected some external protocols.

-  Users who are connecting to the J&L NCS Int14 Servers can now use the
   ArtiCom Interface for correct connections.  J&L use a slight
   variation of the Int14 standard, and with a small tweak to the
   ArtiCom, it works for both systems.

-  Included the new RPI software V.42bis and MNP5 support for those 2400
   baud modems that can take advantage of it.  This requires the V42.DRV
   file to be located in the same directory as QMPRO.EXE.

-  Included support for NCSI/ACSύ network interface.  This is a slight
   variation to the NASI/NACS code.

-  Fixed the problem with the CIS B+ downloads not switching to the
   Default DL Directory automatically.

-  Fixed a script STRING bug that has been in there since the dawn of time.
   If a master script called a nested script used the STRING command many
   times, the duplicate definitions were not caught and caused the string
   table to overflow.  Now, when a nested script uses the STRING command,
   if the string already exists it is cleared.  If it doesn't, it is added
   to the String table.



QmodemPro v1.02

*  Fixed the Script UPLOAD command to work with non-batch internal
   protocols.

*  Included support for pressing ^@ to send a Null out the device.

*  Fixed the internal editor so that the cut & paste options will work as
   documented.

*  Cleaned up the stray allocations from an edit session.  It was
   allocating memory and not freeing it after the edit.  It was possible
   to run out of memory and cause internal failures after repeated
   editing, such as Scripts from the Alt+D/Edit dialog.

*  Fixed the network bug where the NFO directory would still be created
   on the server where the QMPRO.EXE file was located instead of where
   the QMPRO.CNF file is.

*  Fixed a problem with running under OS/2 and QEMM that caused a
   problem when loading the Phone Book.  This was related to an
   uninitialized collection pointer.  The common OS/2 Error was SYS3176.

*  Fixed a NASI/NACS lockup where the Dialer could get stuck if your default
   device was not NASI/NACS and you tried dialing an entry that was NASI and
   the NASI driver was not loaded.  Now you will get a message:

       Device: NACI not loaded.

*  If the NACS port goes IDLE, a Dial attempt will reinitialize it
   automatically.

*  Corrected a problem with the Mouse Cursor disappearing when a DOS
   shell was executed while in a Dialog (such as Alt+D).

*  Protocols will no longer try to upload the Volume Label on a diskette.

*  The CIS B+ protocol is no longer available in Host mode (its use is
   properly limited to CompuServe).

*  Changed the Xmodem/Ymodem Upload code to recover from line noise
   better.  It was looking at garbage characters as NAKs, and the error
   count sometimes caused a transfer failure.

*  Zmodem downloads were always reporting CRC32 even though it was
   really using CRC16 (per the Config/Protocols/Internal/Zmodem
   options).  Zmodem was working correctly as this was a cosmetic
   correction only.

*  Fixed a bug in the Zmodem download where if the success tones were
   played, the incoming data would be flushed before being viewed.

*  Made a fix to the Zmodem download so that it is more tolerant to
   timeouts on the line.

*  Fixed the problems of the script command 'Dial Group=' causing
   problems with scripts not returning to previous level scripts
   correctly.  The usual symptom was that the master script either did
   not return or it started executing from the beginning.  It is
   remotely possible that multiple chained scripts could also be
   likewise confused and this cures both problems.

*  With the fix to the script Dial command, it became necessary to insure
   that it did not become recursive.  i.e.  a script running from the
   Dial Group= also call another Dial Group= script command.  So, this is
   now trapped and will generate a Script Edit Error with the message

                     Recursive Dial GROUP= issued

   and invoke the script editor.

*  Fixed the Host Download problem where non-batch protocols could not
   find the requested files, even if the F command did show them.

*  Changed the Scrollback status line so that a "*" will appear after the
   Lines:xxx count if there is incoming data that has not been displayed.

*  Corrected the online help for Config/Phonebook where it talks about the
   Add/Ins mouse button for Keyboard users:

     Keyboard users should note that the [A] key will always add,
     [Alt+A] will follow the mouse button setting and the Ins key will
     always perform the insert.

*  Added a Status Box that is displayed if all NACS ports are busy.  This
   can show up at startup or after using Alt-K.

*  Added detection of a NACS port disconnection due to IDLE timeout.  If
   the NACS port goes IDLE, the "offline" indicator in the status line
   will change to "No Port".  Any attempt to transmit through the port
   will reward you with a Warning dialog saying the "NACS port
   Disconnected."  Use Alt+K to establish another connection.

*  Fixed the dialer dialog so that entries that were defined with
   "**Current Device**" or "**Default Device**" will be substituted for
   the actual device that is being used.

*  Fixed the Faxing bug where it would not send a fax if the Config/Fax
   defined a cover letter but it did not exist.

*  Fixed the Script $SENDMAIL flag so it will only be TRUE if there is
   in fact a Packet waiting to be sent regardless of how the dial was
   initiated.

*  Fixed a bug where Continuous Dial mode from the Groups was sticking
   on if the dialed group never completed.  The effect was that
   untagging the undialed group entries and tagging others made the
   others act like they were now part of a group.

*  Added code to CIS B+ downloads so that the files will go in the
   default download directory instead of the current directory if the
   user did not specify drive:\path info to CIS.

*  Changed the /CONFIG command line option so that only the Config items in
   the menu are selectable the first time through.

*  Changed Int14 so that it will use whatever port is selected instead of
   always using the default COM1.

*  Corrected a bug in the VT220, VT320 emulations that would cause
   protected fields to work incorrectly.  It might have also caused
   random memory overwrites and strange behavior or lockups.

*  Added support for the VT220 & VT320 Insert mode.  Somehow, this was
   overlooked from the original implementation.

*  XON/XOFF software flow control incorrectly was stripping the high bit
   when in 8-bit mode before testing for either the XON or XOFF.  Also made
   an enhancement so that XON/XOFF is disabled while OFFLINE.

*  You can now tell if you have received an XOFF.  The ONLINE area of
   the status line will change to "TxWait" (Xoff received), "RxWait"
   (Xoff sent) or "AllWait" (both are true).  If no pending XON or XOFF
   condition exists, then it will show the normal ONLINE or DOORWAY
   info.

*  Changed the timing with internal protocols and scripts.  It should
   no longer be necessary to include the DELAY 1000 in script just before
   an UPLOAD or DOWNLOAD script command.

*  Reduced the number of mouse calls (hide and show) to speed up
   operation.

*  Fixed a bug in the script parser that was keeping the "$$" from being
   seen as a single $ character.

*  Fixed a bug in the Host Startup.  If carrier was present when the host
   was invoked, a confirmation dialog was presented to confirm that you
   really wanted to start it.  Regardless of your action, it would start
   the host anyway.  Now, the NO button will not start the host.

*  Fixed a problem with the INI file where the actual Device Name was not
   being stored or reloaded when the command line parameter /R was used
   to restart QmodemPro.

*  Fixed the Script DEVICE and PORT commands so they set the $SUCCESS and
   $FAIL flags per the description in the manual on page 232.

*  Revised the Config/Device/Hardware screen for better support of NASI/
   NACS devices.  There is a new [NACS Preferences] button that allows you
   to define what Server, General and Specific NACS device should be used.

   In the dialog, there are three fields and a list of current NACS devices
   that are available on the network.  None of the entry fields are required
   and if left blank are considered "wildcard" matches to the network.  If
   a field is filled in, then that is entry -must- be available on the net
   to make a successful connection to a modem.

   For example:

      You have three NACS Servers on the network with the following defined
      ports:

   Should you be dialing and the NACS cannot find a match, even with
   wildcards, the dialer will generate the following message and cycle as
   if it was a BUSY detected:

       Device: NACS Device not available.

*  The NASI/NACS baud rate support has been increased to 115200.  Several
   other ACS compatible 6B interfaces including NASI 3.0+ support higher
   rates than 19200.  This has been tested with Novell NASI 3.0, Multi-Tech
   MultiCom AsyncGateway (MCSI), and USRobotics Modem Sharing Kit (MASI) all
   the way up through 115200.

   It should be noted that USRobotics MASI needs to be at least version
   1.6.1 and use the -N command line switch to be compatible.  Consult with
   USRobotics Technical Support about obtaining the corrected MASI driver
   that is compatible with non-USR software such as QmodemPro.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
OLX v3.02

This release is a version number change only to maintain QmodemPro and
OLX with the same minor version number (x.02).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
QmodemPro v1.01
*  Revised the Config/Hardware screen.  Under Virtual Memory, the Reserve K
   is now Maximum K.  Virtual Memory will now use up to the specified K and
   leave the rest alone.  This means that you do not have to set aside some
   for the DOS shells, as these are now unaffected.  Users were just too
   confused by the concept of "leaving this much alone".

   For example:

      Overlay memory : The Overlay takes 512K (either EMS or XMS)

      Virtual memory : Up to the Maximum defined

      DOS Shell      : whatever it takes, (usually in the 350-500K range)

*  Host Mode Fixes:

   -  The Config/Host  (*) Full Path  ( ) DL Path Only  radio buttons
      were turned around.

   -  Even if you did manage to set it to DL Path Only (really Full Path)
      it was always looking in the DL Path for the files.  Now it will
      correctly look for the above setting and use the correct test to see
      if the file exists.

   -  The internally generated protocol list now includes external protocols
      that have been defined.

*  Fixed the sending of Faxes when using the [OK for ALL] button.  It was
   not writing the duplicate information to the QMFAX.NFO file, and so the
   file to Digitize was blank and the digitizer was expecting input from
   the keyboard!  If the user pressed ^Z and Enter, the program would
   "unhang" itself and continue.

*  The mouse is now hidden from view until you need it.  This prevents
   flickering when text is scrolling on the screen.

*  The phone book entries now correctly retain external protocols that
   use the same letter as one of the internal ones.  This also means
   that pressing PgUp or PgDn will focus the correct external protocol.

*  Changed the Auto-Start download for external protocols.  The default
   Download path was not being passed in the %4 batch file variable.

*  The $NOTEFILE script variable is now set correctly after a
   connection.  It was either blank or pointed to the last entry that
   actually used a notename.  It now is pointed to the correct notename
   based on the entry number as it should be.

*  Included the new enhanced Doorway auto-start sequence into the ANSI
   emulation.  This will require the use of DOORWAY 1.21 or greater.  Doorway
   now sends out an ^[[=255h to turn on remote Doorway, and ^[[=255l to
   turn it off when you exit.

*  Corrected the VT102 Device Attribute response sequence.  It was telling
   the remote it was a VT100 instead of a VT102.

*  Changed the Alt-D Auto-Start to work if the user is told there is a
   carrier and he sends the modem init string.  It was not waiting long
   enough for the modem to reset before testing to auto-start the phone
   book.


OLX changes:

*  Fixed problem with work directory when it was not specified with a
   complete path name.

*  Fixed problem with Alt+X when pressing it from a file viewer.

*  Fixed problem with PgDn near the end of the file in the file viewer.

*  Fixed problem with the Replied flag not getting set in the Inbox if
   a messages is replied to from within a QWK conference.

*  Fixed problems with reading empty messages (message with no text).

*  Fixed problem with entering alias names in the From field.

*  Fixed problem with the read flag when reading the first message
   in a conference in split screen mode.

*  The registration name is automatically uppercased to avoid the
   problem with upper/lower names and the installation program.

*  Fixed problems with running OLX from a drive different from the
   one OLX is installed on.

*  Fixed some problems with cut and paste and cursor positioning in
   the editor.

*  Fixed problem with always zipping reply packets.  The correct
   packer is now used.


----------------------------------------------------------------------------
DOCUMENTATION CHANGES

*  You may note that several screen snapshots in the manual do not
   exactly match those in the program.  The differences are not
   significant.


p. 38

*  A new command line option, /DEVICE=  allows overriding the Config
   Default Device if the declared device exists in your device list.
   This also includes a change to the Alt+D/Revise/Device combo box to
   include a pre-defined entry of "**Default Device**".  If an entry is
   marked as using this "**Default Device**", then it uses whatever the
   Config Default Device is currently set to when dialed.     

   The /DEVICE= command line option allows you to specify a Device name
   that has embedded spaces. To do so, substitute the underscore '_' for
   them, i.e.,   QMPRO /DEVICE=HST_Dual_on_Com1     is valid.

p. 38

*  The new /VGA=[mode] switch allows users of VGA and EGA cards to
   switch into a non-standard video mode at startup.  Substitute the
   video mode number for [mode].  As long as your video card supports
   setting the AL register to the desired mode, this option will operate
   correctly.

p. 38

*  A new command line option /CONFIG allows starting QmodemPro with
   immediate startup of the menu bar, even before any communication
   ports are activated.  This allows you to set up a different device,
   perhaps for a different port, even before QmodemPro starts.

p. 64

*  The Revise Entry dialog in the phonebook supports a new device
   type called "**Current Device**".  If you have this device selected,
   it will use whatever device is currently active, either by dialing
   another entry, or set via Alt+K.  Used in conjunction with the
   /DEVICE= command line, you can have one entry that can dial through
   multiple devices by using Alt+K first.

p. 66

*  The Editor command was changed to Edit, and now has added
   functionality.

p. 66

*  Phonebook sorting was also added.  There is a [Sort] button in the
   [Edit] dialog on the phonebook screen.  Some of the highlights include:

   *  Sort by any field in the phone book either ascending or descending.
   *  Remembers the last sort criteria.
   *  Sorts the Group files to match the phonebook.
   *  Sorts the NFO Fax info file to match the phonebook.
   *  Renames the attached Note files to match the phonebook.
   *  Uses a memory/disk based virtual memory scheme using the QuickSort
      algorithm.

p. 85 & 232

*  Added Entry number support to the Script DIAL command and the @DIAL meta
   key command.  So, the following are valid:

       @DIAL TForbin 2 3 23 TMustang   {Function key example}

       DIAL "TForbin 2 3 23 TMustang"   ;Script example

   The above indicates the dial should flag all entries with the text
   Forbin, and entries 2, 3, and 23, and all entries with the text
   Mustang.

p. 85 & 232

*  Added GROUP support to the Script DIAL and @DIAL meta command.
   The syntax is:

       @DIAL GROUP=QWK Mail Runs      {Function key example}

       DIAL "GROUP=QWK Mail Runs"     ;Script example

   Note that embedded spaces are OK in group names.

   If the Group is defined as "Continuous Dial", then each number is dialed
   in sequence until all have been dialed or untagged.  If a login
   script is attached to any of the entries in the group to be dialed,
   the login script MUST end with a RETURN instead of the normal EXIT
   command.  This is the signal to return to the dialer and continue
   dialing.  If there are no more entries to dial, then the original
   script will continue to execute.
   
p. 105

   The special offer for obtaining DOORWAY at a reduced price is no
   longer available from the author of that program.

p. 208

*  Script filename entry forces the .SCR suffix and it is not required
   from the Alt+F dialog.

p. 213

*  Quotes were inadvertently stripped from many script examples.  On
   this page the text at the top should read:

     WAITFOR "Enter your password :"
     SEND "$PASSWORD^M"

p. 217 Quotes stripped, should read:      DIAL "1"

p. 218 Quotes stripped, should read:      WAITFOR "Password"

p. 220 Quotes stripped, should read:      IF "$0" = "_EOF_" DONE
                                          DISPLAYLN "$0"

       The "_EOF_" indicates End Of File, and is used to test for the end.

p. 224 Quotes stripped, should read:      ATWRITE 1 24 30 "$0"
                                          ASSIGN 0 "Test string"
                                          ASSIGN THAT "$THIS"

p. 232 The "Pprefix" option is not an option for the DIAL command.

p. 234 Quotes stripped, should read:      DISPLAYLN "TEST MENU"

p. 248 Quotes stripped, should read:      IF "$0" = "" Nul_label

p. 249 Quotes stripped, should read:      DISPLAY "$0"

p. 252 Quotes stripped, should read:      IF "$0" = "_EOF_" done

p. 254 Quotes stripped, should read:      SEND "AT^M"

p. 258 Quotes stripped, should read:      SEND "$PASSWORD^M"

p. 261 Quotes stripped, should read:      SEND "ATZ^M"
                                          WAITFOR "OK"

p. 291

*  Config/Device now contains a "Default Device" field that can be set with
   the new [Default] button.  This is the device that will be used when you
   start up QmPro, and the device used when entries are added to the
   phonebook automatically by OLX.  This will also make it easier to add
   the /DEVICE= command line option.

   We suggest assigning the "Default Device" to all phone book entries
   except those that require special modified settings.  This enables
   you to change the modem assigned to ALL phonebook entries by simply
   specifying a different default device.

                                         
p. 299

*  Support for Direct Connect devices through the Phonebook was added
   since the manual went to print.  To make use of a direct connect
   device, create a new device and edit the [Term Cmds] section to have
   the word DIRECT as the Connect Message:

   ΙΝ[*]ΝΝΝΝΝΝΝΝΝΝΝΝ Commands for Direct Connect COM1 ΝΝΝΝΝΝΝΝΝΝΝΝΝΝΝΝ»
   Ί                                                                  Ί

   The Connect Msg MUST be the word DIRECT (not case sensitive) and the
   dialer will report an immediate "DIRECT connection established"
   message and exit.  It will also run any script attached to this entry
   to automate logons and such to whatever mini or mainframe is at the
   other end.

   The Dialing directory entry Number field should be left blank, as should
   the Dial Prefix and Dial Suffix (as shown above) so that nothing extra is
   sent to the remote system until the script executes.

p. 309-310

   The FAX @ codes are listed incorrectly.  We have enclosed a sample
   FAX cover sheet consisting of a graphic .PCX file and a text page.
   The .PCX file is named COVER.PCX and is used in the cover page which
   is called FAXCOVER.TXT.  To use this cover page simply place the name
   FAXCOVER.TXT in the FAX config option for Cover Page.  It uses the
   correct @ codes which are summarized below:


   The codes that were removed or renamed for clarity are:

   @SYSTEM@  Renamed @TOSYSTEM@
   @SITE@    Renamed @FROMSYSTEM@
   @OURFAX@  Renamed @FROMPHONE@
   @PHONE@   Renamed @TOPHONE@
   @TPAGES@  Renamed @PAGES@
   @PAGE@    Removed (page counter is automated at top of each page)
   @MEMO@    Removed
   @ATTN@    Removed


   The codes translate as:

   @TOSYSTEM@   name of the FAX system as listed in the QMPRO phonebook.
   @FROMSYSTEM@ name of the FAX system in your QMPRO FAX config setting
   @PAGES@      total number of pages in the FAX, including cover page
   @TOPHONE@    number of the FAX system as listed in the QMPRO phonebook
   @FROMPHONE@  number of the FAX system in your QMPRO FAX config setting


p. 320

*  Kermit setup in Config now has a [Default] button to reset the
   parameters to startup in case you change them and can't remember what
   they were.

p. 320

*  The CIS B+ protocol can auto-start if desired.  If you set a dialing
   directory entry default protocol to CIS B+, when you connect to
   that system (CompuServe) the CIS B+ protocol will be
   autostart-enabled for the duration of the call regardless of the
   settings in the Internal Protocol/CIS B+ section of Config.  If any
   other protocol is specified in a dialing directory entry, autostart
   of CIS B+ is controlled by the config options.  In this second case
   the autostart character (ENQ) must be correctly indicated in config
   for autostart to function.  The advantage of specifying CIS B+ for
   your CompuServe phonebook entry is you can get CIS B+ autostart
   without setting the config options to start it every time an ENQ
   character is received (not a good idea during normal BBS calls).  You
   should leave the CIS B+ Config option set to Disabled (for normal BBS
   operation) and still have auto CIS B+ transfers as long as the
   CompuServe dialing directory entry specifies the B+ Protocol.

p. 324

*  The external protocol Revise dialog now uses radio buttons for the Batch
   Upload and Download support questions.

*  The enclosed scripts make use of the phonebook fields for Name and
   Password, and will not operate properly without them completed.  See
   the text of each script for additional reminders.

*  The Device Mismatch dialog that can appear when loading a phonebook
   has an additional button [Revise with Default].  If you select this,
   all the phonebook entries that point to the mismatched devices in the
   list will be converted to your current Default Device.  This will
   update the phonebook file on disk as well so you do not get this
   dialog the next time you load it.  If you are sharing the phonebook
   between two unique systems, you can still press [Continue] and the
   update will be skipped.

*  The Alt-O Change Drive/Dir command was added.  It works identically
   to the one in the Alt+6 Batch Entry Window (BEW).  Both Drives and
   directories can be changed from this dialog, and it is designed to
   replace the old 5.x Alt-O and Alt-L commands.

p. 329

*  Revised the Config/Hardware screen.  Under Virtual Memory, the Reserve K
   is now Maximum K.  Virtual Memory will now use up to the specified K and
   leave the rest alone.


OLX


You may note that several screen snapshots in the manual do not exactly
match those in the program.  The differences are not significant.  The
following short list outlines the pages with minor corrections since the
manual went to print:


*  The help system has been enhanced. You can go back to the previous
   help screen by pressing Alt F1 or clicking on the bottom of the
   screen.

p. 127

*  The references to SERVICE in the screen snapshots and the text should
   read PACKET.

p. 132

*  The screen and reference to SERVICE has been changed to PACKET.

p. 149

*  The screen and reference to SERVICE has been changed to PACKET.

*  The descriptions for FAX address and phonebook entries is correct as
   described in the documentation, however we think that some additional
   information may help you make use of these features more easily.

   When you have a FAX number for a company and will be sending FAX
   messages to multiple people in the company, you should set up only
   ONE QmodemPro phonebook entry for the entire company. The phonebook
   entry might read "MSI FAX Machine".  Set up this FAX phonebook entry
   before entering any messages to anyone individually.


   The address book in OLX should then contain the individual names of
   the people at the company who will be receiving FAXs from you.  For
   example, you might have the previously mentioned MSI FAX machine
   entry in the QmodemPro phonebook, but have address book entries in
   OLX for RICK HEMING, JIM HARRER, SCOTT HUNTER and GREG HEWGILL.

   This type of configuration results in the FAX being attached to the
   correct QmodemPro phonebook entry because the phone numbers match.
   The message is then sent to the individual and the @codes are
   correctly substituted for @FROM@ and @FROMSYSTEM@.
