This list summarized beta-test versions of the MFI program that were made publically available. Starting with 3.4D, versions for full releases used capital letters, while beta releases used lower case letters followed by the greek letter beta as shown below. The chronology of full releases is in the separate file mfichron.txt. 07/17/95: MFIVERIF (verification suite with synthetic data programs) 06/27/95: MFI 3.4k-beta-6 (tranformed parameters: fixed limits, bugs fixed) 06/22/95: MFI 3.4k-beta-5 (calculated parameters [= transformed parameters]) 06/14/95: MFI 3.4k-beta-4 (spreadsheet functions improved) 05/31/95: MFI 3.4k-beta-1 (spreadsheet output) 02/19/95: MFI 3.4i-beta-7 (several more bugs fixed) 02/17/95: MFI 3.4i-beta-7 (several bugs fixed) 02/06/95: MFI 3.4i-beta-6 (polishing; on-line help up to date; paging) 01/31/95: MFI 3.4i-beta-5 (several bugs fixed) 01/16/95: MFI 3.4i-beta-4 (bug fixed) 01/13/95: MFI 3.4i-beta-3 (bugs fixed, polishing) 01/11/95: MFI 3.4i-beta-2 (tabs for spreadsheets, gate ratios, side-by-side differently-gated dot plots) 01/03/95: MFI 3.4i-beta-1 (mixed data resolution) 11/21/94: MFI 3.4h-beta-1 (Kinetics graphs, gated dot plots, 3D gates) 8/05/94: MFI 3.4g-beta-2 8/01/94: MFI 3.4g-beta-1 (mismarked 3.4G) 8/17/93: MFIMEM.EXE (Doc, utils to determine memory use of MFI) 8/17/93: MFI 3.4D released. 7/19/93: MFI 3.4d-beta-4 (Coulter Elite "XL..." support) 7/16/93: MFI 3.4d-beta-3 (Registration compatible w/ antivirus) 7/14/93: MFI 3.4d-beta-2 (Savitzky-Golay smoothing) 7/12/93: MFI 3.4d (beta-1: runs, labels, registration) ---------------- The FCS1.0 file structure is described in Murphy and Chused, Cytometry 5:553-555, 1984. The FCS2.0 file structure is described by an ISAC Committee in Cytometry 11:323-32, 1990. ----------------
