Andre, Ltd.        www.dbridgemailer.com              VERSION 4 - NOVEMBER 15 2019       ----------------------------              - Moving on to version 4... for Roger.              - Tossing performance should be a bit faster now, due to less disk-writes        and new cache code written from scratch that stores the most frequently-        tossed Echomail areas in memory. On modern computers you may not notice        the change, but on any legacy/old systems you should see an improvement,        especially when running on a "real" MS-DOS computer.              - Two new semaphores: DBNOTOSS.X and DBNOECHO.X, with X being the line        number, ie. DBNOTOSS.1 for line 1 (or for single-line usage). Each        will tell D'Bridge not to activate tossing or Echomail scanning; basically        disabling the mail-tosser until the semaphore is erased; assuming in        some sort of batch file for your system.               On most systems, you would use DBNOTOSS.1 or DBNOECHO.1 as the filenames.               Note that pending Echomail forwarding/scanning and any Xmail "Compress"        operations will finish first before the mail tosser is disabled by the        semaphore.              - A reminder, that if the above is not quite what you want, the semaphore        DBRIDGE.PTM (Processing/Tossing Mail) is created whenever D'Bridge is        busy tossing mail. The semaphore is erased when finished. Your own batch        files or scripts could check for this although you will want to use        some sort of "sleep" command or timeout between checking, ie:               :AreWeTossingMail        if exist dbridge.ptm timeout 60        if exist dbridge.ptm goto AreWeTossingMail               In this example, the batch file waits 60 seconds between checks (on        most Windows computers)              - Rewrote some of the file I/O handler routines.              - Slight rewording in the Queue/View command.              - Slightly changed the command-line parameters to allow a specific line        to be specified while starting the Terminal.              - Slight adjustments to memory and buffer allocation for MS-DOS computers.              - A minor fix when debugging processed mail packets.              - Slightly updated help screens.              - A fix for long messages in the internal editor in VGA mode.              Nick Andre       www.dbridgemailer.com              --- Renegade vY2Ka2        * Origin: Joey, do you like movies about gladiators?
