Release Notes

Changes not in version 6.2 but that it would be nice to have in 6.3 if there ever is to be a 6.3:

PQ will not optionally generate a text log of game events
Multiple games of PQ, when minimized, are not combined into a single system tray icon.

Changes for version 6.2:

PQ no longer prevents Windows shutdown when running minimized. Warning: Do not shutdown without reason! Your character's progress will cease until you restart!
Double-clicking a .pq save file will launch PQ.
Giving a save file as a command line parameter loads that game.
Shortcuts to save files can be placed in the "Startup" folder to launch on startup. (I don't advise putting the save file itself there; when a backup is created, it fouls things up.)
Saves will keep the name and location they were loaded as
PQ will be able to generate a character sheet as a text file. (See below.)
Minimization to the system tray, rather than the taskbar, will become optional. (See below.)
The "game saved as" dialog is optional. (See below.)
Making backup files is optional (See below.)
The bug where long mottoes screw up posts to the online rankings should be fixed
PQ should work through proxies
Your character's name and realm are displayed in the title bar, and in the hint text when the program in minimized.
Handy character name suggestion tool
Three new monsters, two new items
"Foetal" is now spelled without the ligature

Here is "below" (see above). PQ accepts several command-line options. They are:

  -no-backup      Do not make a backup file when saving the game
  -no-report-save Do not display the "Game saved" message when saving
  -no-tray        Do not minimize to the system tray
  -export         Export a text character sheet periodically
  -export-only    Export a text character sheet now, then exit
  -help           Display this chatter (and exit)

Changes for version 6.1:

I really just don't remember.
I also don't see how it could matter much.
