CSpotRun Release History

Please familiarize yourself with the GPL before downloading source code for CSpotRun.

1.2.7 June 2, 2004
Fixed the "No 1-bit mode!" crash found on some Sony and Garmin devices. [Download]
1.2.6 January 4, 2003
Changed to take advantage of high-density fonts under OS 5. With this version, rotating the screen does not work on OS 5 devices. I haven't been been able to rotate a high-density bitmap correctly yet. I'd prefer to figure it out before releasing this, but the volume of email indicates that people really, really want the high-density fonts. [Download]
1.2.5 December 12, 2002
Fixed bug where the rightmost pixel could be missing on lines beginning with a space and filling the entire line. Internally, switched to OS5 header files. [Download]
1.2.4 June 25, 2002
Support for the Sony Jog Dial from Jesús Jiménez. [Download]
1.2.3 June 4, 2002
Fixed crash when CSpotRun is running in ROM (flash). (Okay, so I didn't actually change anything. I just used the newer version of prc-tools, wherein this bug is fixed.)
1.2.2 Febuary April 30, 2002
Florian fixed auto-scrolling bug in long documents which had snuck into 1.2. [Download]
1.2.1 Febuary 11, 2002
Fixed crash in preferences. (Oops.) [Download]
1.2 Febuary 10, 2002
Added hyphenation and justification from Florian Deckert. Added support for Digital Rights Management (DRM) libraries from Greg Weeks. Moved autoscroll and rotation menu items to the Options menu. Change font selection UI to use the standard OS font selector. (Inspired by a change Dan Fahrion had made to his Handera 330-compatible version.)
(Developer only stuff: Went multisegment, so that the DEBUG=1 version will continue to link. Added the HTML that you're reading to the zip archive. Started linking in PalmOSGlue to maintain compatibility with old versions. Changed rotate.c to silence emulator warnings.)
1.1.2 December 13, 2001
Fixed rotation for OS 3.0-3.3, which I had completely broken in the move to 4.0 headers. [Download]
1.1.1 December 12, 2001
Tidied up menu by moving some bookmark stuff to the bookmark form. Started using PalmOS 4.0 header files. (Sheesh.) A little (very little) internal clean up work that nobody else cares about.
1.1 August 7, 2001
Bookmarks from Alexey Raschepkin. [Download]
1.0.5 March 11, 2000
Finally fixed drawing bug after returning from preferences as reported by Dan Pelleg. Added error check for bad documents which could have caused a crash. (One specific type of badness. There are probably others.) Fixed incorrect display of some Czech and Japanese characters. (Ivo Panacek did the hard work of tracking this down.) Made pixel scrolling smoother. [Download]
1.0 Febuary 27, 2000
Traditional chinese translation from Chen-hsiung Chan. Fixed two 0.9.9 drawing bugs. Fixed OS2 rotation bug reported by Paul Bookham. Miscellaneous localization tweaks.
0.9.9 Feb 12, 2000
Swedish localization from Jonas Kampe. Option to choose pixel-wise or line-wise scrolling from Daniel Zahn. Changed to always switch screen into 1-bit mode instead of trying to deal with arbitrary bit depth. Made it work under OS 3.5. Lots of nice localization polishing from many people.
0.9.6 Jan 17, 2000
Pixel-wise scrolling from Daniel Zahn. Option to disable hard button scrolling control from Daniel Zahn. Scrolling tweaking for the rotated case. sysAppLaunchCmdOpenDB support from Zack Hobson. Turkish translation from Selcuk Demiray. pt_PT tranlation from Carlos Morgado. Renamed existing Portuguese translation to pt_BR. [Download].
0.9 Dec 7, 1999
Added Auto-scrolling by Daniel Zahn. Added Czech translation from Ivo Panacek.
0.8.1 Nov 17, 1999
Added Portuguese translation from Rui A. Rebelo. Fixed the stray beep when opening the the find dialog with a menu.
0.8 Nov 12, 1999
Added searching within a document. Added French version, thanks to Vincent Poty. Changed end-of-document behavior. (It no longer insists on filling up the entire screen.) Modulated the shield harmonics. Tweaks to rotation code.
0.6.1 Oct 24, 1999
Fixed bug I introduced while cleaning up the rotation code which caused a crash under OS2.
0.6 Oct 22, 1999
Got rid of "inheritance" of preferences. Instead, there is a menu item to make the current settings the default. Laid some groundwork for searching. Added small icon for OS3's launcher. Fixed gray text when in 2-bit mode.
CSpotRun is finally OPEN SOURCE under GNU General Public License (GPL). There are several embarassing bits of code and experiments in coding styles in here that I'd like to clean up. But if I waited until I fixed them before releasing the source, I may never get the source out.
0.5.2 Oct 18, 1998
Added Spanish translation. Many thanks to Marcelo Rinesi for this translation! Also fixed incompatibility with "jwolcal2.pbd". (This looks like a bug in the compression program used on this document.) Thanks to Louis Lauzon for reporting this, and for being patient with my taking way too long to fix it. [Download].
0.5.1 Oct 12, 1998
Minor fix. Added a missing German translation. Fixed bug causing a crash when a document is replaced with a shorter one having the same name. Silly oversight. Thanks to Jonathan Markevich for bringing this to my attention.
0.5 Oct 8, 1998
There is now a German version! Many thanks to Arne Nickel for the translation. Internationalization required a few minor GUI tweaks even in the English version. Fixed some very strange behavior found by Izya Yagolnitser when reading a certain document. (In case you're interested, it seems that in QED-generated documents, record lengths don't match the record length specified in the header.) Also sped up the text drawing code just a tiny bit.
0.4 Oct 5, 1998
Big changes. Added screen rotating. Made display of line from previous page on page up/down optional. Added options for tapping the screen to move a line, half-page, or page. Fixed bug which made first line of page sometime start in mid-line. (Thanks for John Verne for pointing this out.) Wrote some help. Reworked menus and dialogs to be prettier. Made a document "inherit" the current documents settings when you open it for the first time. (Thanks to Frank Fejes for some great constructive pickyness!) Alphabetized document list. Laid groundwork for easier internationalization of strings.
0.3 Sept 19, 1998
Added the configurable user interface and full screen view. Also added the Palm III's large bold font. It's very readable. (Thanks to Stephen Millman for this suggestion!)
0.2 Sept 15, 1998
Minor fix. The last character of some documents was not displayed. Fixed this. (Thanks to Rob Sherrard for discovering this bug!) Cleaned up some code, shrinking the .PRC a bit. This is a nice, small (8k) version. You can [Download].
0.1 Sept 14, 1998
Minor fix. Added processing of carraige returns in addition to newlines. (Thanks to Randy Hartley for pointing out the need for this.)
0.0 Sept 13, 1998
Initial version
