The only reason this file exist is because it will be displayed at
sourcforg.net download page. All help information for pmprintf is in the .hlp
file. Denis made a lot of efforts to automate and update creation of OS/2 help
files. So there's no reason to replicate these infos here.
If this is the first time you look at pmprintf please consider downloading the
samples at https://sourceforge.net/p/pmprintf-pmprintf/code/ci/master/tree/
This will get you up and running with pmprintf in very short time.

Changelog: (taken from .ipf/.inf file)
--------------------------------------
20240421 Version 2.71 - 2.80
- Now use one unified version numbering scheme for the different components
- PmPrintfGetVersion() added
- Changes to reduce compiler warnings
- Modified build environment, compile/link options, now create .sym and .xqs files, ...
- Fix SMP issue im PmPrintf.exe (freeing memory before written to listbox)
- Improve speed and fix lossing messages in viewer (PmPrintf.exe) with WinSendMsg instead WinPostMsg
- Increase process priority to better handle massive message bursts (>10'000 messages in 10s).
20181103 Version 2.70 (pmprintf.exe 96.256)
- Added usage of HighMem for messages. Only a pointer to the message (in
HighMem) in lower shared mem is transfered over the Queue. This reduces
shared memory usage a lot when a huge amount of messages is queued to the viewer.
- Fixed ExceptQ handling in PM viewer threads (pmprintf.exe)
- Removed depreciated -ol compiler option
20181103 Version 2.60 (pmprintf.exe 96.255)
- Added ExceptQ to the PM viewer (pmprintf.exe)
- Fixed trap in pmprintf.exe when string in queue is to long. Remember it's
still possible to crash your application when you supply too long strings to
pmprintf. (More than 4k?)
20180216 Version 2.59 (pmprintf.exe 96.255)
- Cleaned up build environment
- Set up a (private) bitbucket repository. Ask privately if you need access.
- Changed numbering scheme to x.xx and use package version for bldlevel
information
20170408 Version 96.254 (internal, not distributed)
- Changed stack to 0x80000 (was already set but not in distributed files,
rebuild, requested by Yuri)
Version 96.253
- Added floating point support.
- Chanded default time format to 24h style (You can override this of course in
the 'Time's Format' dialog).
