This new █ ███ ███ █ version of Rose Patch now removes the following versions of Rose- █ ███ ███ █ Tiny: 0.92, 0.94, 0.95, 0.96, 0.97, 0.98, 1.00, 1.01 and 1.02, it █ ███ ███ █ also removes the following versions of Tinyprot: 1.0c, 1.0d & 1.0e. █ ███ ███ █ I pretty much rewrote the whole program, it was a mess and I could █ ███ ███ █ not understand my own code, in the middle of re-coding this new █ ███ ███ █ version I got restless and started coding sloppy again (aww well.). █ ███ ███ █ I've started to work on more 'intelligent' code which would analyse █ ███ ███ █ the protected file's code and automatically find the correct values █ ███ ███ █ for the offset of the start of the encryption, the number of bytes █ ███ ███ █ encrypted, the key and the correct value for offset $21 & $22, this █ ███ ███ █ hasn't yet been applied to this version, but hopefully it'll be █ ███ ███ █ ready for the next release. Although I've corrected a lot of bugs █ ███ ███ █ since the last version, I expect that there will still be something █ ███ ███ █ I missed, please send in bug reports so I can fix them. Finally, █ ███ ███ █ some people didn't enjoy that 80KB WAV I included in the last re- █ ███ ███ █ lease, so I've decided not to include a AVI of me doing the robot █ ███ ███ █ dance and a GIF of my shoelace collection, which I was planning to █ ███ ███ █ include, you people are no fun. :( Anyways, have a miserable █ ███ ███ █ Christmas and a crappy new year. Bah... I need a drink... █ ███ █ ▄ ▀ █ ███ ██▄▀▄ █ ███ ███ █▀▄ -- Aphex Twin [RTD/Vandals] █ ███ ███ █ ▀▄ █ ███ ███ █▄ ▀▄ ▄█ ███ ███▄ ▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▄▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀ ▄███ ███████████▄▄▄█████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████
