- When unpacking archive file MM.ZIP in the same directory where the current MM/LX is installed, PKUNZIP will ask if it should OVERWRITE MM.CFG. Reply "N" for no.
- First rename MM.CFG to something like MMCFG.ORG, then unpack the archive file MM.ZIP overwriting ALL the files. Reregister MM/LX using the instructions on the Licese Information email. Compare the new MM.CFG with your old MMCFG.ORG and adjust the settings you had.

We thank all our customers who voiced their opinions and provided invaluable input. I believe that nearly every item on the list below was initiated by a customer! In other words: We Listen! So you keep telling us...

After an external program is called, the original directory is restored.
in the MM.CFG, HTMLFont= (with nothing after the "=") prevents creation of any tags when exporting the mindmap to HTML. This means that the standards of your browser will take over, and if your installation has standard CSS, these specifications will be in force.
When creating a new map, an empty map is now the default instead of a template).
Movement with Alt key was removed. Only the new cursor movement is supported (saved some code).
CFG Change: HTMLSize= specifies font size.
HTML export no longer "eats" leading spaces, so if you have a nice table in the Note, it will not be destroyed. To display it in your HTML page, use <PRE> in front of the table and </PRE> after the table. This pair of tags prevents HTML from applying any format to the content between the tags.
Bug Fix: DEL in collapsed mode did not reveal promoted items. When you DELeted and item with children, MM/LX promoted these children, but did not show them on the screen until a save.
Bug Fix: When a new map was created in the same file, then edited, and user returned back to the previous map and performed any edit operation, that new map was lost. No more!!!
Bug Fix: Long path name caused top line overflow. Fixed.
Enhancement: Decreased the probability for crossed lines on the screen.
Desktop support enhanced: MsgBox in VGA mode led to wrong screen mode.
DEL function moved to Ctrl-DEL.
DEL now is the same as CUT.
Rremoved ESCQuits (obsolete).
Explicit error for invalid links added.
Save is now automatic.
Demo version saves, but usage is limited to 30 days.
Cursor keys now support different moving scheme.
New Function: Ctrl-A aborts without saving.
New Function: Added support for .ICN and .PCX inline images display
New Function: ENTEREdits=0 in MM.CFG prevents ENTER key from editing the item.
New Function: MM/LX now creates .BAK files.
