Recent changes of MCP 1.46 executable. 19-Dec-2006:
- FIXED Windowsmenu will crash, if the menu leave without any selection was made, when option "activate" was setted.
- OVERW Overwork the Function "CheckTasknamepattern", used from crunchpatch and Examine. Also many optimations, e.g. no internal subfunction - call to mcpsupport2.library but direct call now.
- IMPRO NoGuruSave: A Default-Path/Filename is used, if the Keyword "FILENAME=" not found or no argument behind it. If only dir setted, the default filename will be added.
- FIXED NOGuru-Save: If Filerequester canceled, leaving without saving anything now.
- IMPRO Logbook: If no Filename given, "RAM:MCPlogbook.log" should now used.
- FIXED Screenblanker: Randowmize will not use the correct line in some cases.
- ADDED Windowsmenu: new option to set the menu not on windowsposition but on top of screen. Default is on (try to go to windowsposition like before).
- ADDED WindowMenu: Add an option to activate the Window now also, not only bring it to front.
- FIXED Assignwedge: Assign-Filerequester handle the Buffer in other way, this remove some problems from KingCon.
- IMPRO Noguru-save: by already existing file append the new file now. This means also, correct Seperatorline between 2 Gurus are added.

- OVERW Timerevents like Screenblanker or Dimmer started by Hotkey now starting by release instead pressing a key.
- FIXED Snapping Line causes Crash because the readed Text was written in wrong Memory. The pointer to this was never correct, so i do not know, how it may have worked anytime ?
- IMPRO Assignwedge: Assign was not startet at the CurrentDirectory. This is Changed now.
- FIXED ReqtoolsPatch: ASL to RT have destroyed Register a5 if no TAGS given. So if any Tool which hope this register is not destroyed may crash.
- OVERW change the internal release/pressed-Flag in hotkeystructure to save space for later use.
- OVERW Pointerblanker now blank by pressing, not release a Key. Also all Keys (like Shift,Alt..) may blank yet.
