Costa 1.7.5 is a minor release, with few enhancements. Most notable is the
8-
ability to move icons between desktops, without having to delete and recreate
9-
them.
10-
-Icons can now be moved between desktops
11-
-Desktops can be switched using the 1-5 keys on the keyboard, for faster
12-
access than cycling through them
13-
-A bunch of new icons added
7+
Costa 1.8.0 is a minor release, mostly focused on bugfixes. One new feature
8+
is that COSTA.BAT has been replaced with COSTA.EXE.
9+
-New launcher, COSTA.EXE, which works independently of current path, making
10+
the SETUP.EXE program that created COSTA.BAT obsolete. SETUP.EXE has been
11+
removed, and setup of Costa is no longer required. Internal code to handle
12+
paths removed, resulting in quicker execution.
13+
-Fixed a bug that resulted in Minesweeper mistakingly thinking 1 field had
14+
yet to be cleared, when the game had actually been won.
15+
-Fix mouse selection in file browser dialog, that was offset by a few
16+
pixels.
17+
-Fix bug that resulted in icons being unmovable when no mouse driver was
18+
loaded.
19+
-Optimized mouse code to only call mouse driver interrupts if a mouse was
20+
detected at startup, improving speed on systems without a mouse.
21+
-Code to check if file exists rewritten to use MS-DOS interrupt calls,
22+
resulting in quicker execution.
23+
-General optimizations to reduce overall size of Costa.
24+
-Text viewer now uses a variable width font, allowing much longer lines to
25+
be displayed.
