FPSI Patch for Windows 95 for the 
Stylistic 1200 and Point 510 (W95FPSI.DRV)
Release Notes

Fujitsu Personal Systems, Inc.
20 April 1998


The FPSI Patch for Windows 95 is a file called W95FPSI.DRV. W95FPSI.DRV
is a Windows device driver that corrects some of the shortcomings of
Windows 95 with Pen Services 2.0.  Details concerning the features of
W95FPSI.DRV can be found below.

Please note that there is also an FPSI Patch for Windows 95 for the
Stylistic 1000, and it is also called W95FPSI.DRV.  Because the patches
are platform-specific, the version of W95FPSI.DRV for the Stylistic 1200
and Point 510 cannot be used on the Stylistic 1000, and vice versa. The
date for the Stylistic 1000 version of W95FPSI.DRV is January 1997.  If
in doubt as to which version of W95FPSI.DRV you have, you can download
the correct version from the FPSI Customer Support BBS.


INSTALLTION INSTRUCTIONS

The FPSI Patch for Windows 95 should already be installed in your
system. In most cases, all you need to do is copy the file W95FPSI.DRV
to the \WINDOWS\SYSTEM subdirectory, replacing the W95FPSI.DRV that is
already there.  In some cases, you will also need to modify your
SYSTEM.INI file.  You will need to add "W95FPSI.DRV" at the end of the
"device=" line in the [boot] section of SYSTEM.INI, so that SYSTEM.INI
looks like:

    [boot]
    .
    .
    .
    drivers=<other drivers like mmsystem.dll, pen, etc.> W95FPSI.DRV
    .
    .
    .


CONFIGURATION

In general, it should not be necessary to configure the FPSI Patch for
Windows 95.  The default values are optimal for use with the Stylistic
1200 and the Point 510.

The features of W95FPSI.DRV are controlled by entries in the
[StylisticWinOptions] section of SYSTEM.INI.  If a particular entry is
missing, then the default value is used.  The following entries are
valid:


HotpadEnabled = [0|1]       Default = 1

    1: (default) Re-enable hotpads after a resume
    0: Do not re-enable hotpads after a resume
    
    If Power Management is set to Maximum Performance and the pen is
    kept on one of the hotpads during the resume process, the hotpads
    will stop functioning.  W95FPSI.DRV fixes this problem if this
    features is enabled.


PenAware = [0|1]            Default = 1

    1: (default) Enable pen support for all applications
    0: Do not enable pen support

    Before enabling pen support for an application, Pen Services checks
    the application's flags in the Task Database (TDB) to determine if
    the application is pen aware.  Visual BASIC applications do not have
    the pen compatibility flag set in their TDB, so Pen Services does
    not display the "Lens Tool" (sometimes called the "A Button") in
    16-bit Visual BASIC applications.
    
    If the "PenAware" feature is enabled, W95FPSI.DRV hooks the
    IsPenAware() function call in Pen Services and forces this function
    to always return "TRUE" so than Pen Services believes that all
    applications are pen aware, and will therefore provide the Lens
    Tool for all applications.
    
    
MonitorPenTool = [0|1]      Default = 1

    1: (default) Prevent keyboard dialog popup if pen tool has been disabled
    0: Don't prevent keyboard dialog popup.  Allow GPF to occur.
    
    It is possible to disable "Lens Tool (sometimes called the "A
    Button" or the "Writing Tool") in the Handwriter Settings applet of
    the Control Panel, by un-checking the checkbox entitled "Enable
    pop-up letter guides (Writing Tool)" in the "General" tab.  When the
    Lens Tool is disabled, it should still be possible to bring up the
    Lens Tool Keyboard by making a "checkmark" gesture on the screen.
    However, due to a bug in Pen Services, making a "checkmark" gesture
    on the screen when the Lens Tool is disabled will cause a General
    Protection Fault (GPF).
    
    If the "MonitorPenTool" option is enabled, W95FPSI.DRV prevents this
    GPF from occurring, and instead displays an error message that
    states "Please enable the 'pop-up letter guides' option from the
    Control Panel before invoking the Screen Keyboard dialog."
    

CorrectTarget = [0|1]       Default = 1

    1: (default) Ensure that recognized characters are sent to the
       correct Edit control
    0: Let Pen Services decide where recognized characters are sent
    
    Pen Services has a function called TargetPoints() that decides where
    Edit control characters generated by handwriting recognition should
    be placed.  However, if Edit controls are closely stacked together,
    or if there are more than 64 Edit controls in a single window,
    TargetPoints() can become confused, sending the characters to the
    wrong Edit control.
    
    If the "CorrectTarget" option is enabled, W95FPSI.DRV pre-processes
    the data sent to TargetPoints(), ensuring that characters are sent to
    the correct Edit control.
