Version 1.9 - Apr 4, 2005
=================================================
It's been a while since the last update, and 
even longer since the last public release.

	* Changed the registration requirements for
	  commercial use.  BFB is still free for
	  non-commercial/freeware/academic use.

	* Changed char width data type from bytes
	  to integer so that it's not the limiting
	  factor when creating huge textures.  This
	  will affect any code that used char widths.
	  L+ABC widths are NOT affected by this 
	  change.

I'm sure there are more changes buried in there,
but I can't remember them at the moment.  It's 
been a while since I worked on this so you'll 
have to forgive me. ;)
	  


Version 1.9 BETA - Oct 08, 2001
=================================================

This version was created for Westwood Studios
for use in Earth & Beyond.  This version was 
never released for public consumption. 

   * Font-centric texture sizing implemented


Version 1.8 - Sept 27, 2001
=================================================

   * Restored and made speed improvements to 
     32-bit TGA format
   * ABCCharWidths can now be saved into a font
     metrics file
   * Texture origin can now be selected before
     saving RAW or TGA images


Version 1.7 - April 9, 2001
=================================================

Massive increase in RAW and TGA format save 
speeds.


Version 1.6 - April 7, 2001
=================================================

   * Added 8-bit TGA grayscale save format
   * Removed useless 32-bit TGA save format
   * Greatly reduced the time it takes to save
     graphic in one of the new formats
     

Version 1.5 - April 7, 2001
=================================================

In addition to desktop color-depth BMP saving,
I added the following save formats:

   * TGA 32-bit alpha
   * TGA 24-bit color
   * RAW 


Version 1.4 - April 1, 2001
=================================================

   * Font auto-size

   * Added option to enable/disable font
     smoothing.  This is not built-in 
     anti-aliasing, but it is a way to bypass 
     Windows' built-in font smoothing if the
     user has it enabled on their system.
     
   * Character alignment settings
   
   * Grid color setting
   
   * Binary font metrics option.  Stores the 
     font widths to a .dat file in a 256 item
     byte array
     
   * Misc little changes here and there
   

Version 1.3 - November 7, 2000
=================================================

   OpenGL.org made a post about version 1.2 of
   BFB, and I received a lot of good feed back
   about the program.  I've done some work to 
   turn those ideas into new features, and here
   is what's new:

   * Added Copy Bitmap option to Edit menu
   
   * Added File...Save Font Metrics option to 
     store character widths to INI file
   
   * Font drawing routine speed increase
   
   * Added What's New? to let people know about
     new goodies
     
   * Misc little changes here and there
      

Version 1.2 - June 1, 2000
=================================================

   Version 1.1 referenced a DLL that required
   that IE 4.0 or better be installed on the 
   computer the program was running on.  I 
   removed that reference from the program so 
   that users don't have to have IE installed
   to use it.
   

Version 1.1 - May 25, 2000
=================================================
   
   * Full ASCII font option
   
   * Program released as 'BLABWARE'


Version 1.0 - May 1, 2000
==================================================

   * Initial release
