      This is version 9.6 of the program GMC-Handler



      V9.6: - Workbench window will be activated when right mouse button
              is pressed and released.

            - Error in output of history list removed which caused that
              the close gadget was ignored afterwards.


      V9.5: - Numbers of the edit functions correspond now to the descrip-
              tion in V9.4.

            - Shift-Help output corrected for new edit functions

            - Error in UNDO function removed.


      V9.4: - Error in RAW mode removed that was built in in V9.3.

            - Command line editing has now true jump/delete to next/previous
              word (5/6) and jump/delete to next/previous block (3/4) (old
              word functions). See GMC.Doc and SetGMC.Doc.


      V9.3: - Ctrl-C..F work also under KS 2.0.

            - Path in window title is refreshed also under KS 2.0.

            - Better support of dir/file name completer under KS 2.0 (only
              the new logical directories aren't supported yet).


      V9.2: - Workbench does now a refresh on its objects if the iconify
              function is used.


      V9.1: - Dir/File name completer now works with quoted files/dirs.
              But it can't display names that contain also quotes.

            - Internal modifications


      V9.0: - Dir/File name completer now doesn't work with the last path-
              file-part but with the path-file-part in which or behind which
              the cursor stands. If the cursor stands upon a space and the
              character to the left of the cursor is also a space, the search
              directory is the current one and the search pattern is an
              empty string. The C: directory is never used automatically
              as the search directory.

            - The TAB key can also be configurated by SetGMC. The syntax is
              the same as with the cursor and delete keys. Only the semantic
              differs. It is possible to assign a number from 0 to 7 to
              every qualifier. These numbers are interpreted as bit pattern
              with the following meaning:

                 Bit 2: show info files
                 Bit 1: show directories
                 Bit 0: show normal files

            - The syntax for the beep function was extended

                 BEEP <v> <c> <d> <m>

              If m is equal 0, there will be beeps only if a part of the
              window is obscured by another window. If m is equal 1, there
              will be always a beep. If the window's screen isn't the front
              most screen, there will be also always a beep, this is inde-
              pendent from m.

            - The priority of the beep signal has the new value of 80
              instead of 0.

            - In RAW mode no beeps are generated.

            - Now the directory path in the window title can be switched
              off again.

            - The iconify function will be disabled if the dos.library has
              a version number greater than 34, so with Kickstart 1.4/2.0.

            - Scrolling the window buffer to its end will no longer block
              intuition.

            - WaitIO() for audio request removed.

            - It is no longer possible that a icon is produced but the big
              window don't disappear.

            - SetGMC will display the command list if an unknown command
              is entered in the interactive mode.

            - Internal modifications


      V8.0: - Now configuration of GMC processes is done by an external
              command SetGMC instead of internal set commands. The same
              program can be used for default setting for all following
              GMC processes. SetGMC can be made resident. Description in
              SetGMC.Doc.

            - Actual directory path of the Shell/CLI process in the window
              title. Path is updated on reception of READ packets, normaly
              after display of new prompts.

            - Beep function if window isn't the front most on the front most
              screen. It is poosible to set the loudness, the duration, and
              the time interval that must be pass away between the send-back
              of a READ packet and the reception of the next one, to cause a
              beep.

            - Close gadget of Kickstart 2.0 can be generated by appending
              "/CLOSE" to the title in the startup window description.
              (e.g. "NewShell GMC:0/0/640/200/SHELL/CLOSE"). This works only
              with Shell from KS 2.0.

            - If the file name completer displays a directory name, a '/' is
              appended to the name.

            - The UnDo buffer is cleared after the window was resized (no
              correct display possible in all cases).

            - In script file only outputs are recorded that are made after
              the script file was opened. The buffer won't be cleared any
              longer when a script file is closed.

            - No more keyboard locking for the duration of outputs if the
              window is resized during these outputs.

            - Additional newline removed in CTRL-\.

            - Now page length setting for printer dump works again.

            - GMC will terminate if the first packet isn't an OPEN packet.
              But it will reply with "Unknown Packet Type".

            - New operating manual.


      V7.5: - Now GMC won't terminate, if a key is hit or a non-open packet
              is received before the first open packet. Keys before the
              first open packet are ignored.


      V7.4: - Now GMC can also handle dead keys.

            - ExtFuncProc compiled with Aztec 5.0a. It is possible that
              the old version of ExtFuncProc can crash on CPU with cache
              (MC68020 and greater). ExtFuncProc supports now FPU's.
              There is no change in the interface to ExtFuncProc.

            - If it isn't possible to start ExtFuncProc for any reason,
              however a GMC window will be opened and an error message
              will be shown. With this GMC window it isn't possible to
              used the PRT_SCR and the script function. If there is a pro-
              gram called ExtFuncProc but not the right one, GMC will open
              its window with an error message and won't hang any longer.
              In this case, it is possible that 20 Bytes of memory are lost.

            - With "Set PARSER:0" the internal set command parser is inacti-
              vated for output in the GMC window. Then it isn't possible
              that wrong or not wished Set's are executed. This feature don't
              reflect parsing keyboard input. "Set PARSER:1" reactivates the
              parser also for output. Default is a full activate parser. The
              last command of the Shell/CLI-Startup should be "Set PARSER:0".


      V7.3: - Buffer output by the line is now possible with Alt-DOWN.


      V7.2: - Compiled with Aztec 5.0a

            - Function keys settings can be now deleted by "Set <q>F<n>:"

            - Bug fixed in Packet SET_SCREEN_MODE (GURU with "LS df0: -r").

            - "Next Page  >>>  Ctrl-DOWN" will be now erased when the buffer
              output is continued.

            - After "Next Page  >>>  Ctrl-DOWN" the percentage of displayed
              buffer is shown.

            - The ESC key has now the function of an undo key to bring back
              the state of the command line before the last change.

            - GMC keeps tracking of the command line when the window is re-
              sized. This function must be activated by "Set NEWSIZE:1".
              The function works only in CON mode.

            - Internal Set commands are ignored in RAW mode.

            - If a command line is finished by Shift-RETURN, it won't be sent
              to the Shell/CLI but inserted in the command line history.

            - All arp.library functions are replaced by internal functions.

            - Internal modifications


      V7.1: - Bug fixed, which caused a script file that may contain not all
              the output to the window.

            - After the contents of the output buffer is displayed all out-
              standing ReadRequest are cleared. This removes CLI/Shell error
              message 'Unknown command "' if the output of some commands
              like "ls" is in the buffer.

            - Internal Set command now shows error messages on wrong argu-
              ments.

            - Help text for new function added.


      V7.0: - IMPORTANT - IMPORTANT - IMPORTANT -
              The STACK entry in the MountList was increased to 2500 Bytes.

            - Script function added: "Set SCRIPT:<filename>" specifies
              a file in which the buffer is stored when its end is reached.
              <filename> must start with a physical or logical device. If
              <filename> is "" an opened script file will be closed.
              This happens also if the GMC: window is closed.

            - Print buffer can also be shown in the window. Ctrl-UP jumps
              to the start of the buffer, Ctrl-DOWN shows the next page in
              the buffer.

            - Initial size of print buffer is always 4KByte. The buffer size
              can be changed with "Set DUMP:nnnnnn". nnnnnn must be greater
              than the old buffer size.

            - PRT_SCR function rewritten. GMC starts a new process with name
              ExtFuncProc (if it doesn't already exist). Instead of a func-
              tion started with ARP-ASynchRun, this process loads the
              printer.device. ExtFuncProc can execute almost every library
              function and it can be used from any other process, handler,
              and task. The program ExtFuncProc must be placed in in the
              directory L: It is probable that this modification fixed the
              GURU on printout in V6.x.

            - Bug fixed in error checking during handler startup.

            - Internal modifications.


      V6.2: - Function "Set PAGELEN:nn" added. If nn is not 00, at the
              beginning of every screen dump the page length will be set.
              nn is the page length in lines.

            - DISK_INFO packet: Entry DiskType will be correctly set
              in RAW mode.

            - '|', '(', and ')' as separators added.

            - Printout of command line recall and internal set command
              corrected.

            - ATTENTION: If after the start of a printout and before its
              end new characters are typed, it is possible that the program
              crashed which opened the GMC window. At the moment, it hap-
              pened only three times with ARP-Shell V39.


      V6.1: - "Set XY:xxx/yyy" works now also inside startup, instead of
              only working from keyboard.

            - No more error message with "Set fkeys:<n>".

            - All internal "Sets" (except "Set <x>F<n>:<string>") are
              tested now on additional characters after a correct command.


      V6.0: - PRT_SCR function performs a printout of the recent output
              in the window (memory depends on the inital window size).

            - The contents of the window won't be destroyed by an ICONIFY
              and output in the window can go on.

            - Icon position can be defined by "set XY:xxx/yyy"

            - Command lines with length 1 won't be saved in command history

            - If the handler was started in RAW mode it is possible to
              start it with a given window.

            - GMC: don't run with module terminal.mod of M2Amiga.

            - Internal modifications


      V5.1: - More help in CTRL-Help

            - Modification in command line expansion
                  only TAB:  Only files without info files
                  Shift:     Only info files
                  Ctrl:      Only directories
                  Alt:       All files and directories

            - Internal modifications


      V5.0: - IMPORTANT - IMPORTANT - IMPORTANT -
              The STACK entry in the MountList was increased to 1700 Bytes

            - Built-in set function ignores case of keywords and qualifiers

            - Command line history works now with a buffer of a fix amount
              (2KByte)

            - Search function in command line history ignores case

            - Command line expansion with TAB key
              (e.g.  "type s:st"  TAB  "type s:startup-sequence")

            - Functions of the arp.library (V39) are used

            - Function !n to recall previous command lines is removed


      V4.1: - Search pattern won't be changed if only cursor keys are used

            - Delete to start/end of line function changed


      V4.0: - Flexible assignment of the cursor and delete keys

            - Repeated search in the command history possible without
              new input of the search pattern

            - Iconify function won't be executed after the handler receives
              a DiskInfo packes (e.g. More)


      V3.0: - Iconify function added


      V2.0: - ACTION_SCREEN_MODE, ACTION_WAIT_CHAR packets added

            - Function keys and help keys can be switched off

            - Command line storage and recall changed

            - Bug in ACTION_DISK_INFO packet fixed

            - Several minor bugs fixed


      V1.0: First released version
