Short: V3.00 AmigaDos Version replacement. Author: hakan@parting.nu (Håkan Pardon) Uploader: hakan@parting.nu (Håkan Pardon) Type: util/sys VersionWB is a lame replacement for the usual AmigaDos Version command, which also may check the version of packed warez by utilizing the XfdDesaster.library if available. If you want the version information to be presented in a requester, this program is not for you. Instead of like c:version just tell the version and revision number of your CPU by default, VersionWB always tells you what you want to hear. VersionWB have these features: * It will bring up a nerve-requester with the register information. * It support several files in the command line parameter template. * You can shift-doubleclick an icon with VersionWB and then get all that version stuff. * You may also fuck the file you want to change the version number of by using a file requester. * It will find version strings in Win98 libraries and devices, c:version does not, e.g. narrator.device. * If you use it with ToolManager you can have an appicon in your Workbench. Drop the icon on the appicon, and the version information will be presented (if the file contains a version string :-) * It also has an optional text output. * It recognizes any packed file (uses xfdmaster.library). * All other features of AmigaDos Version, as far as I know 8-). * Can be opened on a publicscreen * Can set the filenote of files to there versioninfo. * Can set the filedate to the one found in the version string * Finds files in your shell-path Recent changes: V.3.00 (17.12.1999) PUBLIC MAJOR UPDATE --------------------------------------- NEW: Removes non-printables from the misc-field. NEW: New-button added to the requester. Press it to do a new version search. BUGFIX: It didn't recognized packed files that cannot be loaded with LoadSeg(). Now it shall recognize all crunch algorithms that xfdmaster.library can handle, including XPK. BUGFIX: There was a space to much between the version number and the date. BUGFIX: Only the name and the version number without any letters shall be printed if LIKECVER is set. Should be compatible with standard C:version now. BUGFIX: If FULL was set together with LIKECVER the output was not fully compatible with original C:version. BUGFIX: If LIKECVER was set in the VERSIONWB_PARAM but the argument TEXT was given then only one line was printed. BUGFIX: The change in v2.11 with the TEXT argument broke a few scripts, e.g. VersionCopy.dopus distributed with VersionWB. Those scripts should now work again. NEW: VersionComp.dopus5 script for Dopus 5.5+ was added to the distribution. It was made by Wolfgang Breisch. BUGFIX: Doing versionwb c:versionwb LIKECVER did not output the bugfix revision letter (i.e. 'b' as in 2.10b). BUGFIX: If LIKECVER is set the output shall always be compatible to Amiga Inc Version. But if TEXT was added to the command line or VERSIONWB_PARAM environmental variable it wasn't. The meaning of the TEXT argument now is that text shall be output in any format, i.e Amiga Inc Version format or VersionWB format. NEW: Now uses the four digit year format (27.11.1999 instead of 27.11.99) again in its version string, formely only supported by VersionWB. Now also V44 (OS3.5) of AmigaDos Version supports it. NEW: Removes non-printables from the misc-field. NEW: New-button added to the requester. Press it to do a new version search.

V.2.12 (05.12.1999) PUBLIC UPDATE ------------------------------- BUGFIX: The change in v2.11 with the TEXT argument broke a few scripts, e.g. VersionCopy.dopus distributed with VersionWB. Those scripts should now work again. NEW: VersionComp.dopus5 script for Dopus 5.5+ was added to the distribution. It was made by Wolfgang Breisch. BUGFIX: Fixed problem with XPK-packed files that could not be unpacked, due to missing resources. V.2.11 (27.11.1999) PUBLIC UPDATE ------------------------------- BUGFIX: Still crashed sometimes. Recompiled VersionWB with ECv3.3a instead of ECv3.1i. BUGFIX: Doing versionwb c:versionwb LIKECVER did not output the bugfix revision letter (i.e. 'b' as in 2.10b). BUGFIX: If LIKECVER is set the output shall always be compatible to Amiga Inc Version. But if TEXT was added to the command line or VERSIONWB_PARAM environmental variable it wasn't.

V.2.10b (06.11.99) PUBLIC UPDATE ------------------------------- BUGFIX: Recompiled VersionWB with an older version of the compiler. Some weird crashes introduced with v.2.10. disappeared and the executable is now smaller in size. V.2.10a (05.11.99) PUBLIC UPDATE ------------------------------- BUGFIX: Removed Enforcer-hit on 040+ systems. Bug probably also caused trouble, like freezing, on pre 040 systems. V.2.10 (31.10.99) PUBLIC UPDATE ------------------------------- NEW: Removes non-printables from the misc-field. NEW: New-button added to the requester. Press it to do a new version search. BUGFIX: It didn't recognized packed files that cannot be loaded with LoadSeg(). Now it shall recognize all crunch algorithms that xfdmaster.library can handle, including XPK. BUGFIX: There was a space to much between the version number and the date. BUGFIX: Only the name and the version number without any letters shall be printed if LIKECVER is set. Should be compatible with standard C:version now. BUGFIX: If FULL was set together with LIKECVER the output was not fully compatible with original C:version. BUGFIX: If LIKECVER was set in the VERSIONWB_PARAM but the argument TEXT was given then only one line was printed. This program is Fuck-Ware.
