                             LP-Editor version 4.0
                           =========================

*****************************
  WHAT'S NEW INFORMATIONS:
*****************************
  1. LP-Editor v1.6 ... v2.3
  2. LP-Editor v2.4 ... v4.0
  3. Some trouble-shooting.
*****************************

If you used my program earlier, I recommend, that read again the
documentation, because I added some more info to it, or at least read this
text. I know, the documentation is a little big for reading the whole, but
the Life is not easy too...



1. VERSION 1.6 TO 2.3
======================

1.6: The first available version on the Net.

1.7: Documentation has been upgraded and completed.

1.8: Coding-decoding routins has been simplified.

1.9: STEP-function has been built into the porgram for much comfortable use.
     ***

2.0: Nothing serious, I mean why not ?!

2.1: TXT-file reading capability has been added to the start of the
     initializing section. ***

2.2: Animating function has been added. You can watch each file as a
     real-time animation. ***

2.3: Engine sound has been added to the animation section.

This was the second available, but not too good version.




2. VERSION 2.4 TO 4.0
======================

2.4: Memory allocation has been improved. The allocated memory is decreased
     by 65% therefore the available length of track is increased by 25%.

2.5: Animating section was improved.

3.0: New, separated program versions for Nascar games, because of older
     version's poor compatibility.

4.0: Lots of updates:
     - Re-integrated program version.
     - Improved initializing section.
     - Program knows all original tracks, and could be edited any available
       tracks, like converted ones.
     - Improved animating section - manageable like a real VCR. ***
     - Improved STEP function. ***
     - Function keys not shown on the screen anymore.
     - "Graphical" editing has been added; much comfortable than calculating
       and long typing. ***
     - Improved FILL function. ***
     - Clipboard available - more comfortable COPY function and editing.

     plus some more little thing...

*** For more information see documentation > GUIDE.TXT & LPINFO.TXT.



3. SOME TROUBLE-SHOOTING.
==========================

  1. Beware of pressing <CAPS LOCK> because you cannot edit anymore in that
     session.
  2. If you are SURE that you have every file and directory in the right
     place, and program says that something is missing, or wrong, then EXIT!
     This only happens when the memory is not enough, and the system could
     not recognized and signed it, and kept up the work. (Do not worry it is
     not a serious problem.)
  3. If you COULD, avoid starting under, or after Windows; if you could not,
     that is your problem. (Just some joke.)
  4. If you have not got enough memory, try to start it under Windows with a
     swapfile after all, and pray. This can allocate you much more memory
     than DOS.

  That's all. If you discovered some more problem, feel free to drop me a
  short message. And write correctly what was wrong, but not that my program
  is a "huge hill of sh_t" ...


"Ladies and gentlemen, fasten your seatbelts and start your engines!!!
 The race is under way!!! Beware of tricky and aggressive opponents, and have
 a good time in competition!!!"
