5   A progressbar file (_progressbar.tol) with a dialog was added to provide Tol Code
6   programmers the capability to display a progress bar for the large time waiting
7   process.

9** Graph Functions & TolMethods
10
11   New interface was created to allow users to graph by means of calling functions.
12   Allowed graphics:
13       - series.   (with TclChartSerie  function)
14       - sets.     (with TclChartSet    function)
15       - matrices. (with TclChartMatrix function)
16
17   In all of those functions the "title" option was modified to allow this property
18   as title of graph and window.

23** Global variables
24
25   Normalized the value of 'dir' to obtain the full path.
26
27** Tabulate Functions
28
29   Added functions to tabulate a tol Set and tol Serie.
30       - Tol_SetTabulate
31       - Tol_SerieTabulate
32
33** MDI
34 
35   New options in mdi forms
36       - backimg   -> to specify a background image.
37       - resizable -> controls when user can or cannot resize the window.

40   
41   New option added
42       - autoconnect -> "1" or "0" (default) to connect automatically with Data Base.
43
44** Functions Search
45
46   The form was changed to a document instead of a dialog.
47   The elements of the form has been reordered.
48   Search allows not case sensitive.
49   The results of the search it's show by means of blisboxplus
50   Search functions are included in proyect
51   If it's possible, allows to visualize the function within the file
52
53** TolBase Options
54
55   New option was added in this subject:
56   - "program paths" tab in TolBase options dialog. Allows to specify paths for:
57          - browser
58          - PDFViewer
59
60      Those programs will be used to view help, data and so on.
61
62
63* What is new in TolBase-1.1.2
64
65** MDI
66
67   Modified the visualization format of the windows and forms of TolBase to
68   perform an MDI environment.
69   A principal (or container) window exists and all the forms will be located
70   in this area.
71
72** ToolBar Main
73
74   Added button bar in the main form.
75
76** Status Main
77
78   Added status bar in the main form, inncluding text info and a small clock.
79
80** Multiple projects
81
82   The load of different projects or modules is allowed. The project
83   specification is read from "tolbase/lib/toltk/project.ini".
84   The project.ini file has now a different structure:
85   [Project]      # Required and required to be first
86   title=         # title of the main window, can be left empty (Uses TOLBase
87                  # by default)
88   splash=        # Full path to splash image to use, can be left empty (Uses
89                  # the image in $toltklibrary/toltk/images/splash.gif by default)
90   [PrjName1]
91   name=          # Project's namespace
92   path=          # Project file paths, there must be a tcl dir within
93                  # and a file named name.tcl with a name::name function
94                  # this function is the one which tolbase will load
95                  # from here on user must load the rest of files for the project
96   [PrjName2]
97   ...
98
99** GUI functions
100
101   It is possible to apply functions to any TOL variable from the object
102   inspector. This can be defined in the global set "GuiFunction". Examples can
103   be found in _guifunction.tol at tolInitLib. Those calls are saved in _eval.tol
104
105** Eval window
106
107   The evaluation window has a Syntax Check command now.
108   Now it is also possible checking or evaluating just the selected text.
109
110** File editor
111
112   Added the possibility of compiling a file without saving it. If any text
113   is selected it is evaluated(in the eval window), otherwise file is
114   included, but not compiled. It is very useful!
115   Only one editor of the same TOL file can be opened.
116   Syntax Check can be done now only for selected text.
117
118** Project Editor
119
120   Bound some actions: Compile (F9), Decompile (F8), Insert Node (Ins),
121   Delete Node (Del), View Node Attributes (Space) and Open Node (Return).
122   Node paths are stored relative to project's one in case it belongs to
123   the same unit as the project base directory, otherwise the full path
124   will be used.
125   When adding a node it searches from the last opened node directory or the
126   project base directory.
127   Nodes can be inserted instead of appended. Do this by selecting "Add node".
128
129** SQL Editor
130
131   Added some reserved words for SQL and SQL Server functions.
132   When text window contains a selected text only the selection is executed,
133   else all text of eval window is executed.
134
135** Parameters TolBase
136
137   Command line arguments are now parsed:
138
139     .tol, .bdt, .bst, .bmt, .prj files along with:
140
141     -i : Includes the file associate
142          Example: tolbase.exe -i test.tol
143     -r : Compiles the file associate
144          Example: tolbase.exe -r test.tol
145     -b : Opens TolBase, it executes sentences indicated and it closes TolBase
146          Example: tolbase.exe -b -i table.bst -r test.tol
147
148** Graph
149
150   Added an option to self-fit an opening graph.
151   "Jump to first data", "Jump to last data", "Play backwards" and
152   "Play forward" options modified to work correctly within the 4 axis.
153
154** Autocorrelation graphs:
155
156   "Lags" and "Sigmas" options apply only to active graph. Before this fix,
157   they were applied to all graphs.
