Accuracy Improved
The Profiler provides more accurate accounting. The total time you see with the Profiler
GUI now matches total wall clock time from when you started profiling until you stopped
profiling. Overhead associated with the Profiler itself is now applied evenly.
Statistics for Recursive Functions
The profile function now gathers and reports time for recursive functions in the
FunctionTable's TotalTime for the function. In previous versions, profile attempted
to break out TotalRecursiveTime, which was not always accounted for accurately. The
value for TotalRecursiveTime in FunctionTable is no longer used.
This change is also reflected in the Profiler GUI reports.
PartialData Reported in Results, AcceleratorMessages Removed
The FunctionTable now includes the PartialData value. A value of 1 indicates the
function was modified during profiling, for example, by being edited or cleared, so data
was only collected up until the point it was modified.
In previous versions, FunctionTable included AcceleratorMessages although it was
not used. AcceleratorMessages is no longer included.
Visual Directory View Removed from Current Directory Browser
The Visual Directory view was removed from the Current Directory browser.
Compatibility Considerations
Most of the features it provided are accessible from the Current Directory browser
standard view.

symbols, underscores, as in _SAMPLE ITALIC TEXT_.
