Legacy functionality

Sometimes features are removed from ASE. These features may still be useful, and can be found in version history, only we can’t support them.

Common reasons for removing a feature is that is that the feature is unused, buggy or broken, untested, undocumented, difficult to maintain, or has possible security problems.

Below is a list of removed features.
