This is updated and fixed MorphOS port of Digital Almanac III 5.8. Since
Achim Stegemann kindly uploaded DA3 ISO to Aminet I could finally test and
bug fix my port.

You need Digital Almanac III CD to run this program.


 Changes & improvements (V5.8b)
 ------------------------------

 * Fixed bug where switching toolbar on/off from the menu crashed


 Changes & improvements (V5.8)
 -----------------------------

 * Merged with Stegemann's latest V5.8 source code
 * Fixed broken ftp code (my fault, sorry)


 Changes & improvements (V5.6)
 -----------------------------

 * Removed BetterString.mcc class, it is obsolete with MUI4
 * Fixed simple refresh bug
 * Fixed memory trashing bug which probably never occured to Stegemann
 * Fixed toolbar toggling (didnt work with MUI4)
 * And it works now, really

Simple refresh bug is now gone but unfortunately there is annoying flicker when
main window is redrawn. I could fix it properly but it is too much work really.
The abort window pops up less often now -- it doesnt make much sense on Pegasos.

Source code to MorphOS version is available at
http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/digital-almanac

It is multiplatform and compiles for AmigaOS targets too.
