http://www.usit.com/omnip/ecsb.zip (BETA) has been uploaded:

	4.1.009 (09/10/99)

    97)	A new Type (HUNDREDTHS) is now supported (for 0.01...327.67)

*   98)	The following WEATHER-IFC-A Settings are now denoted in
hundredths
	(instead of tenths):
		Barometric-Pressure
		Daily-Rain
		Yearly-Rain

*   98)	The OFF/ON States of the LIGHT/B Items now send only OFF/ON
commands
	to the module, so that ON will restore the previous DIM level.
	The previous OFF/ON States have been renamed to 0%/100%.

    99)	A strange problem has been "corrected" (coded around) whereby
the
	CM11A would fail to transmit multiple/consecutive 6381 commands.

   100)	Corrected an oversite which resulted in Event-execution
exceeding
	4 per second when the mouse was active in the ECS Window(s).

*  101)	The default output file for WPDL.EXE (web page download utility)
	has been changed from WPDL.TMP to WPDL.HTM. PLEASE CHANGE ANY
	APPLICABLE COMMANDS AND/OR BATCH FILES ACCORDINGLY.

   102)	EXAMPLE.CFG now supports the ability to announce your favorite
	TV shows as they air, per schedule listings which are downloaded
	weekly (see "TVL" Items).

   103)	A bug has been corrected which could cause "funny" characters to
	be pasted into an Event if you selected the destination line by
	clicking the line # (to the left) instead of the line itself.

*  104)	Having discovered a nasty conflict when attempting to execute
	two programs simultaneously (without waiting), I have implemented
	a more "robust" method of executing Text Items and other programs:

	Each execution is now assigned a dedicated/TEMPORARY console
	window (the permanent ECS console Window has been eliminated).

	To view the output of a command(s) for verification, you must
	now re-direct its output to a text file (e.g. "DIR *.* > DIR.TXT").
	But note that output/input re-direction is ONLY supported via the
	EXECUTE & EXECUTE/ND States (execute with WAIT). To re-direct
	withOUT waiting, place the re-directed command in a batch file
	and execute it (via EXECUTE/NW or EXECUTE/NW/ND).
