************************************************************************************
STYX 2.00 July 2007
************************************************************************************


FIXES
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- ADD BACKSLASH and REMOVE BACKSLASH crash fixed when an empty string was passed
- Selecting a non-existing node doesn't crash anymore
- ACTIVATE WINDOW bug fixed
- EXECUTE OPEN DIALOG now returns a comma seperated list of files if the selection
  of multiple files is allowed


CHANGES
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
String Operations
- MIDDLE(): Position starts with 1 now rather than 0
- SPLIT$(): Fragment index starts with 0 rather than 1

Ini Files
- OPEN INI FILE: For more consistency parameters swapped 
  (OPEN INI FILE Ini Number, File Name). Both ways are possible.

Dialogs
- MESSAGE BOX, EXECUTE FOLDER DIALOG, 
  EXECUTE OPEN/SAVE/COLOR/FOLDER DIALOG: Can have an additional 
  parameter to set a different parent (other than the DBPro window)

- WINDOW TO FRONT and WINDOW TO BACK changed to 
  BRING WINDOW TO FRONT and SEND WINDOW TO BACK in order to avoid
  interference with the (undocumented) native DBPro commands
- ACTIVATE WINDOW and WINDOW ACTIVE also except Window Names as parameters now.

Intervals
- The previous interval system has been abandoned in favour of a new 
  REFERENCE/INTERVAL/CALLBACK system
