CmdLi - History

First of all a big, big THANK YOU to Colin Gymer. who has translated my german website and the CmdLi executable itself!

 

Version 1.17 (24.09.2001)

  • An error with a call from the context menu of Explorer was repaired with the assistance of Dominique Hunter.
  • In order to open Explorer, only one listing is shown. CmdLi has now become somewhat more tolerant. In this case quotes may be avoided with path names with spaces. In principle, however, path names with spaces must still be enclosed by quotes.
  • Using a file named commands.txt in the installation directory of CmdLi, the command sequence of the used command interpreter can be stopped.
  • Aliases can now be indicated in a list (particularly helpful under WinNT and Win2000).
  • There is now a new setting "no double entries in history". Thank you to Holger for this idea.

Version 1.16 (18.10.2000)

  • Under NT there was a problem with showing the icon in the system tray, that is repaired.
  • To start CmdLi with Windows, it is no longer nesccessary to put a shortcut in the startup group. This can now be done using the settings screen.

Version 1.15 (06.09.2000)

  • CmdLi can now be called from the context menu of Explorer. Thank you at Helmut Welke for this idea.
  • For fast access to CmdLi, a tray icon may be installed. My thanks to Wolf Fabian for this idea.
  • CmdLi may now be set to display on top of all other open windows.

Version 1.14 (18.12.1999)

  • An MS-DOS box may now be called from the context menu of CmdLi. Thank you Tilman Kolb for this improvement suggestion!

Version 1.13 (12.12.1998)

  • Unter NT werden jetzt auch die Tooltips angezeigt.
  • Im Eigenschaftenfenster kann jetzt eine Tastenkombination zur schnellen Aktivierung von CmdLi ausgewählt werden.

Version 1.12 (01.07.1998)

  • CmdLi now works under NT (tested under Windows NT 4.0 with service pack 3).

Version 1.11 (26.03.1998)

  • Maximum entries in history list may now be altered using the mouse as well.

Version 1.10 (24.02.1998)

  • Until now, a URL had to be in the form http: // and/or ftp: //. Now the URL can be in the form of www.* and/or ftp.*.
  • Tooltips are shown immediately now. Until now one had to wait half a second until the tooltip showed.

Version 1.9 (09.12.1997)

  • A change of screen resolution led to CmdLi becoming invisible, this is resolved now. If the screen resolution is reduced, CmdLi is forced onto the visible area. This is also considered in starting CmdLi. Adjusting the width of the Cmdli window is now supported, CmdLi adapts accordinly.

Version 1.8 (14.11.1997)

  • In correcting the tool hint in version 1.6, an error crept in. When the tooltip was visible, command input was interrupted, if the tooltip disappeared automatically or by moving the mouse, a command could be input again. That issue is now resolved.

Version 1.7 (07.10.1997)

  • CmdLi no longer appears in the <ALT>+<TAB> program list.

Version 1.6 (22.09.1997)

  • Correction of the tooltip. Under certain circumstances they could be covered by other windows. Now they are always readable.

Version 1.5 (04.09.1997)

  • Internal change: The version number is now queried from the version information in the resource file.

Version 1.4 (27.08.1997)

  • URLS are now recognized and are called automatically by the Default browser..

Version 1.3 (23.08.1997)

  • Correct treatment of drive letter
  • Through input of "c:" or "d:", the drive letter can be changed, at the same time the valid path is always adjusted respectively:
    cd d:\zip
    cd c:\tools
    copy less.exe d:
    d:
    dir (the file was copied correctly to d:\zip)

Version 1.2 (22.08.1997)

  • Tooltips available.
  • History can be stored permanently.
  • Search with command initials and F8 implemented.
  • Keyboard adaptation for DOSKEY (F8=Search, F7=List, ALT+F7=Delete History, ESC or <Ctrl> deletes the current command).

Version 1.1 (03.08.1997)

  • DOSKEY recognition inserted.

Version 1.0 (21.07.1997)
