ChangesVersion46.10 / 54.10
- Bugfix: Could exit early when searching for a filename in the path list if
a dir with the same name was found in the path.
- Now also searches filesystem segment lists for vertag strings.
This fixes not finding version info from devices that use CrossDOSFilesystem.
- Some improvements in searching segment lists for version data.
- Can now get version info for handler-based DOS devices like CON:, RAW:, RAM:
and ENV:
- Now gets filesystem version info for volume and assign names.
- ORIGIN option now also reports handlers and their location on disk if
version info comes from the file.
- V54: Bugfix: Getting version info from ELF executables and dos resident segment lists now works.
- V54: Adjusted the maximum filename, path, volume and device lengths.
- V54: Enlarged file read buffer.
- Many other optimizations.
46.9 / 54.9
- Now uses DOS's path list to find filenames that haven't been found in fixed locations like LIBS: or DEVS:
In V54 this fixes the issue of not using the APPDIR: assign.
- The ORIGIN option now also reports the location of the given filename if no path is used or the FILE option is not used.
CopyCopy 46.6 / 54.6 :
- Added some missing V54 CLI argument abbreviations to the argument template to avoid compatibility issues.
