10/25/85: Applied PRONTO12/FIX to PSORT 2.0a (changes to 2.0b).
========================================================================
All patches from PRONTO1/FIX through PRONTO11/FIX have been installed
========================================================================
10/10/85: Due to a few requests from users wanting to use the DIALER
application strictly to store telephones numbers without requiring the
installation of the DOS *CL COM/DVR module, the patch file designated,
"DIALNOCL/FIX" can be applied to DIALER/APP to accomplish this.
========================================================================
07/19/85: Upgraded PSORT/CMD to version 2.0a. This version now uses
32-bit integers for the calculation of file positions to avoid any
problems with the LRL * NREC exceeding 65535.
========================================================================
06/25/85: The DIALER4P/FIX can be applied to DIALER/APP in order to make
autodialing work with the Model 4P internal modem or the Modem II. Note
that users of the Modem II, will also need to apply the DIALR12A fix
noted below for timing problems with some modems. The FIX file includes
comments which should be read - especially for the "@" DIALER macro.

The DIALER12/FIX and DIALR12A/FIX files are for support of the Radio
Shack DC-2212 modem. Both of these fixes are experimental - they should
work; however, MISOSYS makes no guarantee that they work in all cases at
this time. Both patches MUST be installed for the DC-2212.
========================================================================
IMPORTANT INFORMATION: If you are going to use PRO-NTO with ALLWRITE,
you will need to apply a patch to the BOOT/SYS system file of TRSDOS 6.2.
This patch is recommended for all users as certain other application
programs may also result in a system stack conflict. The patch is also
being recommended by Logical Systems. Please apply the patch to your
working TRSDOS 6.2 system disks as follows:
          PATCH BOOT/SYS.LSIDOS (D06,2C=40:F06,2C=60)
It will be necessary to re-BOOT your system disk after you have applied
the patch for it to take effect. You can also invoke: DO FIXBOOT
========================================================================
04/11/85: Documentation corrections Page 2-8, the sentence after
          PSORT ADDRESS/DAT [pack] should read:

The optional parameter, "pack", is entered when you wish to remove the de-

Page 2-18, after "The date is assumed to be in the 20th century.", add:
A year outside of the 20th century may be entered by typing the 4-digit
year (i.e. April 7th, 2143 as 04/07/2143).

========================================================================
04/04/85: Note on export/import operation for the programmer and others.
A last minute discovery that needed attention was the effect of two
particular graphics codes within the marked rectangle of an import or
export block. The two codes are viewed as 88H and 89H and can be seen on
your screen via the CHARSET application. As these two codes are treated
as IMPORT and EXPORT keyboard requests when returned after a keyboard
scan, it is necessary to present certain restrictions on the behavior of
the two "graphics" codes. The following conventions have been placed
into effect within PRO-NTO:
     If import/export is active, a WIPORT SVC will return error-8.
     If import/export is active, a WCLOSE SVC with C<>0 will be treated
as if C were equal to zero (i.e. export will not be recursed).
     Import will pass back character codes 88H and 89H if detected within
the marked block; however, if the characters are being returned via a
WKEYIN request, the IMPORT code (88H) will be ignored while the EXPORT
code (89H) will be handled just as if the EXPORT was entered from the
keyboard via the <CLEAR><RIGHT>.
========================================================================
04/03/85: Note: If you inadvertantly leave a window open after exiting
an application (obviously when you are debugging one which you have
written), you only have to go back and close it. The following /ASM code
will do this when assembled to a /CMD file:
                ORG     2600H
        START   LD      BC,8.SHL.8
                LD      A,124
                RST     40
                RET
                END     START
or from BASIC using WINLINK:
        OPEN "O",1,"*WL":PRINT#1,CHR$(1);CHR$(8);
========================================================================
04/02/85 - Warning: If you invoke CARD from CARD, do not <A>dd a record
           from the nested invocation. You can invoke CARD from CARD
           for the purpose of reading card data only! Don't EDIT either.

           The same thing holds true for ADDRESS and DIALER and BRINGUP.
           If you recursively invoke any application which adds records
           to files, only add records in the outermost invocation.
           Failure to do so will corrupt the record counter maintained
           in the information sector of the data file.

     We recommend that to guard against this type of situation, you
set bit-0 of the NETWORK flag in TRSDOS 6.2. That will ensure that
recursively opening the same file will force it to READ ONLY. PRO-NTO
applications honor this condition. You can set the NETWORK bit via:
          MEMORY (A="N",B=1)
then SYSGEN the change. Consult your DOS manual for details.
========================================================================
04/02/85 - Add to Tech Specs, Application Format and Protocol, page 3-11
    bytes 20H-2FH contain a quad of data for each of four windows opened
    by your application. Each quad contains two two-byte pointers to
    where you load reg_H and reg_L for the @WCREAT. See the DOSAVE/ASM
    file for an example of coding. Do this now so that in the future,
    changing a created window's location may be easily done externally.
========================================================================
04/01/85 - Note: You must have set the system DATE in order to properly
           use the "system date" feature of BRINGUP and CAL!
========================================================================
04/01/84 - Note: If you are also using the DOEDIT module from PRO-ESP,
           please patch DOEDIT/FLT with the following patch:
                PATCH DOEDIT/FLT (D04,71=05:F04,71=03)
           If DOEDIT is in your system CONFIG file, please redo it!!!!!
