Current status: 0.47b

As Alessandro Cantatore do work any more on ACDataSeeker, I've asked him if he 
would give me the sources. So I've made my own build starting with his 0.46 
version. Please report missing/broken functions in my build compared to 
Alessandros last version.

For this first release from me, I made no help file updates. Too there is no 
national language support with this release. If you want to update the help file 
or make translations, drop me an email.

Prerequisite: 
------------- 
- OS/2 or eCS. Warp 4 and up should work. I've tested with eCS1.x. 
   Alessandro has built in support for Warp 3. But currently I can't test this. 
   Maybe I've broken something for Warp 3. If yes, please report in detail the 
   difference between the old (0.46) and new behaviour.
- PmPrintf.dll for debug versions


Installation:

History:
--------
2008xxxx 0.47b: 

changed
- First build from me (Andreas Buchinger). Lot of changes were necessary to  
   build the GUI with URE. At this times, I don't want to build an application 
   without a useful GUI editor. On OS/2 I think URE is the only usable one. 
   There were a lot of changes necessary to get that beast compiled cleanly with 
   my build enviroment. So maybe I've some things broken. While rebuilding the 
   GUI, I've made some changes to the menus. I think they were not consistent 
   with usual OS/2 look and feel. So I've changed that.

fixed
- crash when no editor or cmd shell is found in ini file
- crash when no editor or cmd shell is entered in settings dialog

added
- support for MED and VS (VisualSlickEdit) as editors (beside EPM)
- select first found text entry to start editor with approbiate line when double 
   clicking on the file name
- when opening a cmd shell, switch to it (put focus on the cli window)
- add '*' if files to search is directory (simple check only - end with \ or :)
 
0.46: 
last version from Alessandro Cantatore I'm aware of 


To-Do:
------
- if no .ini file is found, double-click do not start editor. Open settings 
   dialog once.
