+=================================
+== TextAnalysisTool.NET ReadMe ==
+=================================
+
+
+------------------
+-- Requirements --
+------------------
+
+Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 or 4.0 (including versions 3.0, 3.5, and 4.5)
+
+Note: TextAnalysisTool.NET is compiled for .NET 2.0 and comes with a .config
+file that lets it run under .NET 4.0 (for example, on Windows 8 without the
+".NET Framework 3.5" feature installed).
+
+
+-------------------------------
+-- Installation Instructions --
+-------------------------------
+1) Copy TextAnalysisTool.NET.exe and TextAnalysisTool.NET.exe.config to a
+   local folder
+2) Run TextAnalysisTool.NET.exe
+
+
+---------------
+-- File List --

+TextAnalysisTool.NET.exe - Application
+TextAnalysisTool.NET.exe.config - Application configuration file

+  Notes, History
+
+
+------------------
+-- Known Issues --
+------------------
+* GDI+ occasionally throws a System.Runtime.InteropServices.ExternalException
+  with the message "A generic error occurred in GDI+.". This exceptional
+  condition causes TextAnalysisTool.NET to exit after notifying the user.
+* The .NET Framework's improper handling of vertical and horizontal scrollbar
+  messages for ListBoxes can cause rendering problems for files with very many
+  or very long lines.
+* Checkboxes don't always repaint properly due to a .NET Framework bug.
+* There is extra flicker when resizing the window. This is due to a workaround
+  for an even worse .NET Framework repainting bug.
+* ListBox limitations on 16-bit OSes (Windows 95/98/Me) prevent files with
+  more than 32,767 lines from displaying properly.
+
+
+-----------
+-- Notes --
+-----------
+One of TextAnalysisTool.NET's core principles is that data should be read one
+time as soon as it is available and kept in memory after that. This principle
+allows the source data to be amended, changed, or even become unavailable
+without affecting the user. Though this principle is an optional convenience
+when the data source is a file, it is a strict requirement for data sources
+that offer only one chance to read their data (such as the clipboard and plug-
+ins). Accordingly, TextAnalysisTool.NET keeps the entire data set in memory at
+all times which means that particularly large data sets can tax systems with
+comparatively few available resources. The prototypical example is loading a
+file that is larger than the amount of memory in the system: performance
+suffers. TextAnalysisTool.NET strives to be as responsive as possible under
+all circumstances, but is ultimately bound by the resources available to it.

+  memory when run on 64-bit operating systems
+* Superficial string changes for copyright date, etc.
+
+2006-12-04
+----------
+* Copy to clipboard includes HTML formatting that preserves the font/ coloring
+  of the copied text when pasting (user request)
+* Enhanced New Filter and Find dialogs to pre-populate with the text of the
+  currently selected line (user request)
+* Added saving/loading of Show Only Filtered Lines setting in .TAT filter
+  files (user request)
+* Added "[x / y]" to enabled filter descriptions to show how many lines are
+  currently matching each filter
+* Added support for legacy keyboard shortcuts Ctrl+Insert (copy) and Shift+

+* Disabled glyph-mapping to work around a GDI+ bug that causes abrupt
+  application termination
+* Fixed bug where Help | Documentation didn't clear the Show Only Filtered
+  Lines setting
+
+2006-01-11
+----------
+* Significantly improved performance with large files (load time reduced by
+  ~40%, memory use reduced by ~25%, filter time reduced by ~10%)
+* Fixed potential null dereference in LineCollectionDisplay.OnDrawItem that is
+  extremely rare on all operating systems before Windows Vista (user report)
+* Fixed filter display coloration bug when running under .NET 2.0 by working
+  around the problem so that the correct behavior is present under both .NET
+  1.1 and .NET 2.0 (user report)
+* Fixed bug where Ctrl-Alt-[A-Z] didn't work if filtered lines were hidden and
+  no lines were displayed
+* Fixed bug where the body of the '_' character couldn't be seen with some
+  font sizes (including the default)
+* Fixed bug where copying text containing '\0' to the clipboard truncated that
+  text prematurely
+* Fixed premature line truncation bug due to use of default encoding when
+  reading files
+* Fixed premature line truncation when drawing lines containing '\u0084'
+* Improved performance of toggling markers on high line numbers
+* Improved performance of drawing extremely long lines
+* Set IMAGE_FILE_LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE flag in PE header to enable access to a
+  larger virtual memory area when it is available (ex: on 64-bit machines or
+  on machines with the /3GB boot option set)
+* Added formatting to the XML content of *.tat filter files for improved human
+  readability and better revision control (user request)
+* Added support for applying Shift modifier key to Ctrl+F to begin a reverse
+  find (this shortcut overrides the shortcut for toggling filter f)

+* Added short version of file name to window title, makes it easier to switch
+  among different windows in the taskbar (user request)
+* Last directory used for successful file and filter access (via a dialog) is
+  remembered, makes it easier to keep files and filters in different locations
+  (user request)
+* Addressed minor focus issues related to filter display
+
+2003-07-24
+----------
+* Switched to building on top of .NET Framework 1.1
+* Switched to using Windows XP visual styles for dialog controls

+  opening a file that's actively being written to)
+* File | Reload tries to preserve the selected line and current view of the
+  file
+* File open/save dialog boxes remember the last file type they were used with
+* Focus rectangle now drawn in line display
+* Other minor user interface fixes/improvements
