V10.15         18 April 2004

Windows & DOS:.
    I have completed the conversion of SDI (IOTA) and
    SDX (Special Events and DXpeditions) to native
    Windows programs - running in text mode rather
    than a graphical interface. They look very like
    DOS, but they're not. Unlike the DOS programs,
    they run on all modern PCs and laptops under any
    version of Windows - and with no need for memory
    configuration tweaks. Similar Windows versions of
    SDV, SDU, SDC and SDR will soon follow.

    At this stage I intend to maintain and update
    only the Windows programs.  From now on, any
    reference to the programs by name, SD, SDX etc.
    will refer to the Windows versions.  The DOS
    versions are now legacy programs, and will be
    distinguished by the /DOS suffix. For the moment,
    I'll keep V10.15 of SD/DOS, SDC/DOS and SDV/DOS
    on the website - but they will not be updated.

    SDL/DOS and SDI/DOS are now discontinued.

SD:
    Restored choice of background colours for logging
    screen (COLOUR command).

    European Sprint.  Broken code in V10.14 caused
    crashes.  Fixed.

SDCHECK:
    Added specific support for Cabrillo logs for the
    REF contest.

SDX:
    When you have a .LST (callsign, name) reference
    file loaded, SDX extracts matching names and
    enters them in the Notes field.

The programs may be downloaded from http://www.ei5di.com

They are all freeware. Please encourage other contesters
to use them and to sign-up to the sd-user mailing list.
The more feedback and suggestions I get, the more incentive
I'll have to improve the programs.

IMPORTANT:  Keep a copy of whatever version(s) of SD
you're using now - as insurance!
