HIGHSPEED Pascal Version 1.5
----------------------------

This READ.ME file contains last minute information

Before you use this disk, please make a backup copy of it

1 NEW IN THIS VERSION
----------------------

o The version $Define variable is "VER15"

o Knows about the MultiGEM environment

o BYTE and WORD variables now only takes space according to there
actual size.
BYTE uses 1 byte, while word uses 2 bytes.

o ABSOLUTE variables. Examples:
MyBuffer: array [0..999] of integer ABSOLUTE inp;
Bottom: array [0..255] of pointer ABSOLUTE $00;

o Typed constants
Const
MaxValue: Word = 40000;
FacS: Single = 4.1;
Space: Char = ' ';
Hello: String[20] = 'Hello World';
HexDigits:Set of Char = ['0'..'9','a'..'f','A'..'F'];
ArrayStr: Array[(North,South,East,West)] of integer = (0,180,90,270);

o Big arrays. The limit on array on 32 KBytes has now been removed.
Only the amount of memory now limits the size.
There are still a 32 KB limit on records.
BigArray: array[100..50000] of integer;

o Fixed inline assembler problems with: BTST, BSET, LINK, NEG, MOVEQ
o Fixed problems with: ADD.L #$10,D0. Also SUB, CMP, AND, OR and EOR

o Writeln(True,' ',False) now writes correct text.

2 NEW SINCE FIRST VERSION
--------------------------

o Inline Assembler. Enables you to write assembly language directly in
your Pascal source code. See the HZ200 function in the UTILUNIT.PAS
file for an example of how to use the IA.
The words ASM and ASSEMBLER are reserved

o Fixed the MOVE procedure. MOVE(x,y,n) sometimes moved one byte too much

o Malloc, Mfree and Mshrink implemented in DOS unit

o Fixed the problems with window #2

o Assign and SetTextBuf has been implemented

o Reset, Rewrite and Append does not take [,buffersize]
Use SetTextBuf(File,Buffer[,Size]) instead

o Windows are sized in steps of whole chars on screen

o Ctrl-A not a hotkey

o Minimum value of heap in $M is 0 KByte

o Alt-T use both Include and Unit paths while searching for a file

o The following procedures has been cleaned up to use "VAR xx" instead of
"xx: pointer" in there declaration
GEMAES:
evnt_multi, appl_find, appl_trecord, appl_read, appl_write, appl_tplay,
evnt_mesag, menu_text, menu_register, form_alert,
scrp_read, scrp_write, fsel_input, fsel_exinput, rsrc_load,
shel_read, shel_get, shel_put, shel_find, shel_envrn, shel_write
GEMVDI:
v_fillarea, vr_recfl, v_bar, v_rbox, v_rfbox, vs_color,
vro_cpyfm, vrt_cpyfm, vr_trnfm, vrq_string, vsm_string, vsc_form,
vq_cellarray, vqt_fontinfo, v_output_window, v_bit_image, vsp_state,
v_write_meta,vs_clip, v_pline, v_pmarker, v_cellarray

o FlopWr in BIOS works. Did not use the sector parameter

o ReadKey function no longer returns LF after CR when return key pressed

o Graph unit implemented

o Dummy CRT unit implemented

o SwapVectors and Exec implemented in the DOS unit

o The help window can go backwards. Use the UNDO key

o The HIDE has been optimized. Scrolls faster than before

o The HIDE supports Ctrl-Y/Ctrl-Z for delete line

o DOS and BIOS unit has been completely rewritten using the Inline Assembler

o The BIOS.RsConf procedure has been changed to a function:
Function RsConf(Scr, Tsr, Rsr, Ucr, Ctr, Speed : Integer) : LongInt;

o The Cnt and Res parameters to BlockRead and BlockWrite has been
changed from LongInt's to Integers

3 NEW UTILITIES
----------------

o HighSpeed Help Accessory implemented. Please read the file HHA\HHA.DOC
on disk #2.
