DesktopPD/WimpBar2/History
This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

WimpBar 2 v1.62

A Brief History
���������������
v1.04 (01 Aug 1996) through v1.48� (22 May 1997) snipped to keep this
file from becoming a sprawling mess...
--> v1.49 (26 Aug 1997) <--
Non-beta release, finally. Added new StrongHelp manual, made a lot of
internal changes and generally tidied things up for a proper release.
Also, spaces are stripped off the start of each line in the Choices file, so
they can now be indented and therefore made a bit easier to read.
--> v1.50 (26 Oct 1997) <--
Sprites in menus, at last. There's still a couple of problems with it though.
Several changes to the way the bar goes to the back, and also added the
INet$Timer thingy (this works with Freenet, at least).
Also, you can use the CLI substitution (%0) in a menu command to represent
the item text.
--> v1.51 (19 Nov 1997) <-- (not released)
Totally re-wrote the sprites-in-menus section; I'm much happier with it now.
Also totally re-wrote the Support module, attempting to cure a bug which
turned out to be in the nested Wimp module (fixed in WindowManager 3.98).
The main menu now has a 'Configure' sub-menu, clicking on 'Info' opens the
StrongHelp manual, and the Choices file is now created if it doesn't exist.
Comments are now allowed in the Choices file, as in Obey files.
Improved (ie. less useless) Example files are now supplied.
--> v1.52 (25 Nov 1997) <--
Re-wrote the sprites-in-menus stuff, again... now even happier with it.
Added new #BOOT command which will deal with any apps you want booted on
startup.
WimpBar 2 can now be internationalised (if anyone wants to do a translation,
then please feel free to do so).
When using an Alt-Ctrl (+Shift) drag command, you can specify an extra
key to be pressed. Also attempted to fix a problem with the clock updating at
the wrong time (or not at all) - if anyone has any problems with this then
please let me know.
--> v1.53 (03 Dec 1997) <--
Made the #BOOT command actually work.
(It just ignored everything before, 'cos I completely forgot to write any
code to make it do anything...)
--> v1.54 (20 Dec 1997) <--
The maximum number of buttons and menu entries/action commands can now
be configured from the !Run file.
Fixed a bug which meant a Choices file with no buttons wasn't being handled
correctly, resulting in a button being created anyway. This problem has
existed since August 1996 and nobody had noticed it! Also doubled the maximum
size of the indirected text buffer.
Sorted out a few mistakes in the Help file.
--> v1.54a (05 Jan 1998) <--
Fixed a small memory allocation problem, and changed the e-mail address
(temporarily) to RPurchase@arcade.demon.co.uk. A new T220 address will be
set up soon.
--> v1.55� (25 Jan 1998) <-- (beta release)
All options specified in the !Run file are now passed as command-line
parameters rather than system variables.
Added the -nostatus and -readonly options to disable the status display and
'Configure' menu respectively.
--> v1.56 (13 Feb 1998) <--
The 'IconSprites' menu flag now searches in an application's Resources
directory for the sprite file if one can't be found in the main directory.
Clicking adjust on 'Reload' closed the 'Configure' menu - now fixed.
WimpBar 2 info distribution lists set up - see help text for details.
Some minor bug-fixes to Support module.
--> v1.57 (08 Mar 1998) <-- (partial release)
Errors encountered while reading the Choices file no longer clear the button
bar - at last! Also, these errors are now reported more consistently, and
menus without any items no longer cause an 'undefined' menu to be created.
Implemented a new 'directory' flag for menu items - on selecting a directory
item, the pathname will be canonicalised and opened.
The bar will now also go to the back of the screen when the pointer is moved
off it (without selecting anything). This is on a trial basis, and will be
made optional if it is not popular.
Slight change to the !Run file parameters: -e has changed to -i ('items'
rather than 'entries'). Also improved the set of example macros (now includes
KillTBox and UnzipIt)
--> v1.57a (24 Mar 1998) <--
The new 'ZipIt' and 'UnzipIt' macros failed on files with long pathnames.
Made 'ZipIt' look nicer, too.
(v1.58 and v1.59 each introduced some of the next lot of features, but they
got added to again before I had a chance to release either of them... hence
the next release version is v1.60)
--> v1.60 (09 May 1998) <--
Now uses a directory in the !Boot.Choices structure (if possible) to store
the Choices file and any additional macros. There's a section on it in the
manual that'll explain the changes.
Action buttons can now have a different effect when clicked with Adjust by
putting a "#ADJUST" line in the list of commands. Commands before this are
executed on Select, while anything after it is executed on an Adjust click.
If this line is absent, all commands will be run for both click types.
The bar-goes-to-back-when-pointer-leaves-it thing (!) can now be disabled
(with the -noback option in the !Run file). It now works properly more often,
and won't send the bar to the back if the pointer is moved off it within half
a second of bringing it to the front.
Spaces are now stripped off the end of application/directory items to stop
WB2 moaning about them.
Directory items now have a default spritename of 'small_dir', as intended
when they were introduced (but it didn't get done...)
Fixed a bug which meant that if the first item in a list of drag filetypes
was a '-1', it was being ignored (bug introduced in v1.52).
The maximum size of the text buffer is now configurable with the -w option in
the !Run file, and the bug which meant the "workspace full" error wasn't
being looked up in the Messages file properly has been fixed.
(Thanks to Richard Baldey for mentioning several of the above items)
--> v1.61 (13 Jun 1998) <--
Can now show the time for a different timezone when clicking adjust on the
status icon.
The time and date format strings are now stored in the Messages file, and can
be altered. However there is virtually no point, because almost anything else
will be too wide to fit in the icon.
Clicking at the top of the screen with Menu now works while dragging files.
--> v1.62 (05 Aug 1998) <-- (2nd birthday release!)
Bug fix: Alternative timezone GMT+0 didn't work. Also the status icon
shouldn't flicker quite so often.
Updated e-mail and website addresses, added information about the mailing
list, and generally tidied a few things up for Acorn User cover disc release. 00000000 0a 09 09 09 20 20 20 20 57 69 6d 70 42 61 72 20 |.... WimpBar |
