$HIS
;
;   Version 1.0 - 28th May 1994
;     Initial prototype. Badly coded and eventually discarded
;
;   Version 1.1 - 10th June 1994
;     Redesigned project. 
;     Split main window into seperate windows
;
;   Version 1.11- 27th June 1994
;     - The year number gadget in "Add New Note" always returned 0, see new.c
;     - Added the Amend function.
;     - Added comfirm quit from Double run of Commodity
;
;   Version 1.2 - 5th July 1994
;     - Prenotes can now be added to all types of notes.
;     - Amend function was re-written making it now code efficient and
;       also can be activated by double clicking on a note
;     - Prenotes are now "attached" to the parent note, so when the parent
;       note is amended/deleted so are the prenotes.
;     - New note type "Relative" added. (See documents)
;     - Some memory was not being returned to the system for some "Previous"
;       notes. Now fixed.
;     - A previous note is now not created when a prenote expires.
;     - A space was added in the prenote between the date and the note text!
;     - A lot of code was re-written to be more efficient and cleaner! If you
;       could see the source code it is now much clearer, (less headaches for
;       me)
;     - Changing the period for the Within list made all deleted messages
;       reappear. Now fixed.
;     - The Freeze window until ready part never worked. Strange, it used to.
;     - Any of the prefs options could be set to a negative number. This used
;       to cause a lot of problems. Now fixed.
;     - If the prefs filename was set to blank then the prefs would be loaded
;       incorrectly the next time, and the data file would go walk about.

;     - Added font adaptability. 
;     - Included a size gadget. (Not as simple as it seems!)

;

;     - Added the execute command option for a message.
;
;  Version 1.32 - 26th July 1994
;     -  Using NTSC Hi-res laced screens with certain system fonts gave
;        some trouble and Remind couldn't create the gadgets in the window.

;        These have been slightly moved.

;       crashing on my system.
