Everyone who bought 2.8 should get it. It works on a 68020 (though it still doesn't support '020 '881 or '851 (dis)assembly). A couple of extra FKEYs and an INIT, some with MPW source, are also included. The differences list is 19 fine print paragraphs on a page of the newsletter that came with it; for me, the important fix was to resolve a problem between Suitcase and the ExitToShell and Relaunch functions. They have added a couple user area commands. They fixed a number of bugs with Radius addons, Mac II color and multiple screens, saved user areas, Discipline for one trap, etc. There is a command key to close one or all windows. There is better MultiFinder compatibility. The size of the user area has increased from 7200 to 7300 bytes; TMON itself has increased less than 1K. To me, this is impressive support of a very nice product. /JBL (I have no connection with ICOM Simulations or its personnel other than as a happy customer.)
