Environment: –>

Additions:

Ability to Disable Drag&Drop (via the CCrystalTextView::GetDisableDragAndDrop( void ), and
CCrystalTextView::SetDisableDragAndDrop( bool bDDAD ) methods).

Ability to add description text to Undo/Redo actions (via the CCrystalTextBuffer::CanUndo( PTSTR cpDesc ),
CrystalTextBuffer::CanRedo( PTSTR cpDesc ), and AddUndoRecord(BOOL bInsert,
const CPoint &ptStartPos, const CPoint &ptEndPos, LPCTSTR pszText, LPCTSTR
cpDesc = NULL ) methods).

Some notes:

Undo/Redo description text is stored in a 32 byte buffer, so the description limit is 31
characters Currently, no checking is done to verify the length!

All(?) of my changes can be found by searching for “[JRT]”, which is near all of the changes that I made.
