| -them. |

11 |

| - -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. |
