Series Question: Assuming they don't want FAT32, Long Filename support, or Sockets, why should my customer upgrade to the newest ROM-DOS? Answer: Since our first FAT32 and LFN release 4.00.1091, there have been several improvements to the core ROM- DOS kernel. This core code is used primarily for our DOS 6.22 compatible compilations, and then extended in the case of a FAT32 or Long Filename build. The 4.00.1091 release is also a new code base and there will be no further upgrades to the previous DOS 6.22 code. In order to obtain new features, fixes, and support a customer must upgrade to release 4.00.1091 or greater. Along with the performance enhancements for both size and speed, several corrections have been made to the ROM-DOS kernel. These include stack and memory issues, disk access issues, and compatibility with the former market leader in DOS. Most of the ROM-DOS utilities have also been improved for size and speed, along with bug fixes. The major changes happened with the XCOPY, HIMEM, MSCDEX, CHKDSK, FDISK and FORMAT utilities. In the realm of international support, the Euro was added to the keyboard and display driver code. ROM- DOS and PC-DOS 2000 are the only non-GUI operating systems to support the Euro. Finally, new ROM-DOS utilities have been added.

Deltree is the procedure used by the delete command (BX.8.07)· to delete an entry which points to a non-empty directory. In order to delete svch an entry delete calls deltree to delete the subtree beneath the entry. The method used in deltree can be easily adapted for other tasks which are repeated at all nodes of some tree structure in the file system. Usaoe call deltree (path, failsw); path is the path name of a directory. Fails\-J is.a 1-bit switch indicating on return that some entry of path could not be deleted. Oeltree starts deleting entries of the tree structure beneath ,path at the end nodes (i.e., directories_ that have no directories inferior to them). Deltree reaches these end nodes by constructing a path name of a directory · . immediately inferior to path and then calling itself recursively with that path name until the end'nbdes are r~ached~ Whendeltree has deleted all the entries in an end-node directory which it can delete~ it returns to its caller. )me lementat ion ca 11 .de ltree (path, fail sw); del path char(')'<), f,:lf lsw bit (1); De 1 tree first obtai i'IS the current. ca landar clock time using the PL/I built-in abnormal function ''c1ock_11 .'

    The l3pdffield-choice module Commands to create choice fields LATEX PDF management testphase bundle The LATEX Project∗ Version 0.95i, released 2021-08-28 1 l3pdffield-choice Introduction This is the documentation for choice fields, for general information about form fields check the documentation l3pdffield. Please keep in mind • Not every PDF viewer supports choice field. • The handling can depend on settings in the PDF viewer. In adobe reader for example I had to disable an option to avoid that it tries to create an appearance itself • Standards like pdf/A disable features of form fields too (as you typically can’t change the PDF). 2 Choice fields Choice fields are drop down menus or scrollable lists where the user can selectoneor more entries. They can also contain a field where users can insert a free text. The export value and the displayed value can differ. Some values can be preselected. This means that various data will have to be set, and the sorting matters. The module here will assume that the various values are stored in sequences: checkifexportoraltname... Only the first sequence is required. Empty values in the display sequence are possible, then the normal value is used. 2.1 Types Choice fields can be a drop down menu (called Combo), which can contain an editable field. setfieldflags={Combo,Edit} or setfieldflags={Combo} If Edit is set, one can also set DoNotSpellCheck. Or they can be a list. ∗E-mail: [email protected] 1 unsetfieldflags={Combo,Edit,DoNotSpellCheck} For both types it is possible to set or unset MultiSelect and CommitOnSelChange.
