Some files missing from previous installation. Fixed in this version.

Tweaked options screen.

Minor changes to documentation.

Added the option of deleting a directory.

WAT can now remove files from the target drive's recycle bin before wiping a drive.

Improved command line facility so that multiple files from different directories can now be specified.

Wipe disk function now available separately.

Added buttons to GUI.

Cleaned up source code.


**Changes in version 2.9 from 2.8**

Altered the about box and documentation to show the new KARMADROME website/email addresses

Altered the wipe freespace function so that it uses more advanced freespace options present in Win98/Win2k.

Electronic documentation in .doc format no longer supplied. HTMLhelp file is now the only documentation provided.


**Changes in version 2.8 from 2.7**

Previous versions had a bug present which prevented complete data deletion, particularly in text/html files. This was due to WAT working quicker than Windows could update the file system. The result was that Windows deleted the original file, and not the WAT overwritten file. Version 2.8 now has a 2 second pause after deleting each file, allowing windows to catch up, thus eliminating the problem.

The deletion feature has been tweaked again, allowing even faster data deletion.

The command line facility now handles multiple files.
