    Renegade v1.40/DOS Full install and upgrade has just been released. Grab it from here or the official Renegade BBS website. http://www.rgbbs.info

    Below is the whatdone change list since v1.35/DOS.



    F. Renegade correctly swaps to XMS instead of DISK once again and
    will use EMS if an OS supports it via driver such as straight DOS.

    U. Added error detection to RGLNG.EXE. If you are missing a string
    RGLNG will exit and tell you which string you are missing

    A. 2 New Strings. Batch Upload and Download Empty prompts.
    BATCH_UP_EMPTY, and BATCH_DL_EMPTY are the new tags. A new RGLNG
    and RGLNG.TXT string file will be included in the next release.

    F. Fixed colors on the front end of some prompts and in the User
    Editor.

    U. Updated copyright notice to reflect Renegade Home Page as well as
    added some color to it.

    U. Renemail has been updated to release better time slices under
    Windows OS and removal of tempfile RENEMAIL.NET that was left over
    after mail processing was completed.

    F. Corrected Stats Menu to allow USERNAME color to now be changed
    when the color is changed in RGLNG.TXT or in the ASCII/ANSI file.

    F. Fixed & Updated the MultiNode Chat room. It now runs & looks
    like an IRC/MRC Chat room. Not great, but atleast it works again!

    A. View archives will not let you scroll via a Lightbar and view
    text and ANSI files within the archive.

    F. Fixed MENUCMD "VI" now will scroll by page to view ansi and scroll
    line by line on text. The system will automatically select which is
    which based on file extenstion. The same code is used for the File
    archive viewer.

    A. Message Reader/Lister Lightbar is now added. Now you can scroll
    through the message list for each base via your arrow keys and
    select which message you'd like with your enter key.

    A. File Listing Lightbar is now added. Now you can scroll through
    the file listings with your arrow keys. Tag files into a batch
    queue with the spacebar, view the archive with the internal
    text and ANSI scroller.

    A. 5 New Language Strings have been added for the Message Lightbar and
    File Lightbar Footers. You can customize these however you like,
    but no longer than 79 characters wide.

    A. Added new ANSI/ASCII file. BATCHEMP.ANS/.ASC This is displayed
    during file tagging on the file menu when you have no files tagged
    to download. Make sure the ANSI clears screen it or else the user
    will still be able to use the menu behind the ANSI without it
    refreshing.

    ... Some days I look my best in a thick fog.
