History                                           UFO Universal File Operator


   Version 1.2E   June 28th, 1995

    From now on UFO is also available IN ENGLISH. Please pay attention to
    the letter behind the version number (D for Deutsch, E for English)

   THIS IS THE FIRST OFFICIALLY OBTAINABLE ENGLISH VERSION

   * The mode of "Brief display" has been implemented. If it is active
     UFO displays three columns of file names per file window.
   * The size of file windows is now variable.
   * Files can be edited in archives.
   * Predefined groups can be entered as file filters - e.g. graphics,
     text files, etc.
   * The file viewer is very much faster now. Moreover you can move
     to the right and to the left in the file.
     Text files created under Windows can be displayed (ANSI)
   * Completly new in this version: The drive overlapping search for
     files (with specified contents, too).
   * The file windows can be switched off separately (Ctrl-F1 or Ctrl-F2).
   * You can choose from three different color sets.
   * The menu line can be permanently displayed.
   * The menubar is now possible to be displayed permanently by Ctrl-M.
   * The function and status line at the bottom of the screen can be hidden
     (Ctrl-B).
   * The two file windows can be exchanged by Ctrl-U.
   * By pressing Ctrl-P you can switch off the currently inactive file
     window.
   + 4DOS or NDOS is recognized and supported. Please make sure the
     COMSPEC environment variable is set properly.
   + If RETURN is pressed on a file which is not linked in the extension
     file, it is checked out if it is an archive. If it is really an
     archive it will be entered. So the extension has not to be
     ARJ, ZIP or LZH.
   + The function "Change attributes" was greatly improved - especially
     at the treatment of more than one file.
   + CD-ROMs are left out at application scanning.
   + By now you can use batch files in the user menu.
   + Selections of files are saved even at changing of sort methods.
   + Recognition of ZIP-archives was improved.
   + The user menu which adapts to the size of its contents allows to enter
     comments started by a colon (;).
   + UFO saves the dos screen even while changing the text mode
     (25/50 lines)
   + '*' can be added to the extension file - this is a link to all
     files except executables.
   + If you copy files from a CD-ROM-drive (and only from a CD-ROM-drive)
     those disturbing read-only-attributes are being left out.
   + DirectDir has been improved.
   + Many small improvement, speed optimizations and internal changings
     that make UFO more save.
   - Error at window display in TempTerminator at multi tasking operating
     systems is repaired (TempTerminator's version is now 1.02D).
   - UFO did not exactly right if executed from a root directory. Now it
     works faultless.
   - Display error at the function "Key after DOS-command" repaired.
   - If you called the viewers' function "Search string" some times UFO
     displayed "Not enough memory". Fixed.
   - In certain Shareware-Versions AnimByte caused the error "Fehler in
     .EXE-Datei". It does not occur any longer.
   - Error in the "Compare directories"-function has been fixed.

   Version 1.13D   March 16th, 1995

   + Directories are scanned about 100% faster.
   - Multifile Editor works now.

   Version 1.12D   March 15th, 1995

   * In the editor more than one file can be opened and edited now.
   + UFO works perfectly and at full service of functions under OS/2
     (under Warp, too).
   - When the mouse was deactivated or not present, UFO has called the
     screen saver accidently; this failure is wiped out.
   - Some errors at displaying windows are corrected.
