Development
Spanish release 2.0x has faster screen redraw on monochrome systems due to bug found and fixed by the Spanish distributor of the software.
Translation of their release notes:
README.1ST January 18, 1987
Preliminary Note:
The current version of PC-DITTO has been specially adapted by TOU S.A. to run correctly on a monochrome monitor. As you can see, the programs on this disk read much faster than those on a conventional disk, and they run faster, especially when subjected to greater overload. This version has been freed from the errors of the first monochrome version supplied by ROBTEK.
Never format this disk!!! When running the monochrome version of PC-DITTO, this disk must be present in drive A: and can be removed once the main program screen has appeared. You can make backup copies of this disc using the usual methods, but the monochrome version will only work if the original disc is in drive A:. If the original program becomes corrupted, you can erase (not format) the original disc and transfer the programs you retained in the backup to it, and they will work again. (If there are any problems, you can use the TOU warranty.)
