Mr. Machinist  WHATSNEW.TXT file.  ( 10/19/95 )
===============================================

A formula function in the "Options" menu has now been implemented.
You can virtually write every long handed formula to a file called
FORMULA.TXT.  This is a great feature for the user who wants to know
how to do the calculations manually.

The sequencing and unsequencing functions have to do with CNC G-Code 
files.  These files are used by metal cutting machines to command the
axises to a particular position.

Added a feature to the sequence function where you can specify an '@'
character in a line by itself and an '!' character in a line by itself.
These characters are only noticed in the sequence function and here is
what they do:

When the sequence function sees a '@' character it causes all of
the lines after that NOT to be sequenced or resequenced UNTIL it
sees a '!' character in a line by itself.  This way you can leave
a certain portion of G-Code alone and just sequence the rest.

Changed the way the program saves and deletes files that it creates.
If you start the program with no parameters, 'mrm', then any files
that are created by the program will not be deleted upon termination.
Then when you start another session, these same files will be appended
to...that is added to.

Files that Mr. Machinist can create are:

MRMSOLVE.TXT - Answer File
MRMBOLT .TXT - Bolt Circle Answers
MRMCIRCD.TXT - Circle Divived Answers
MRMDRILL.TXT - Drill Speed/Feed File
FORMULA .TXT - Formula File

There has been a new function added to the 'Options' menu called 
'Check Files'.  This function will give you the chance to delete any
of the above files if they are present.


Keep watch for upgrades because they can come quickly!
