Hi!

Just a quick note that so far PageStream 5.0.2.12 for Linux-i86, Linux-PPC
(first release!), Amiga OS4-PPC, and MorphOS-PPC has been uploaded. Amiga
OS3-68K and Macintosh-OSX-PPC are coming! (I was going to wait to annouce
them until they were all up, but the new system makes them available as
soon as they clear and are automatically confirmed, and others have started
posting reports so...)

I had to halt the uploads late last week when I make some major
improvements to the Amiga base code, but everything is "chugging" away
again. I think in the next few days the "automatic" notification will be
live and then I won't have to remember to post a note when these uploads
happen (assuming we get it working to post to these lists as well).

And yes, a Windows version as well is coming, but I am working on the print
problem for those few customers afflicted by it before making the next upload.

From the 5.0.2.12 readme file (which should be posted with future files..)

Recorded changes to 5.0.2.12 & 5.0.2.11
(.11 was short lived because of Linux Paste bug)

+ AMIGA: PostScript printer driver now includes proper PAR:,SER:, Device output
methods, plus Include EOF checkmark.
+ AMIGA: PostScript printer driver won't ask twice if you are sure you want to
overwrite a file.
+ AMIGA: Hidden objects now hide properly.
+ AMIGA/LINUX PPC: Path structures are now properly padded to long alignment.
+ Fixed bug in GetDefaultPageSizes & GetPathPoints that would not return
the full
data, and would cause double frees.
+ Removed .COUNT from IDLIST in DUPLICATE, TRANSFORM, and
GETSELECTEDOBJECTS so that
they can be returned as a list instead of a dict in python. The return
result
still contains the count. However, any older Arexx script that relies on
this
stem variable will need to be updated.

+ When executing external python scripts, PageStream now adds the script path
to the sys.path list so included scripts can be stored in the same folder as
the executed python script.
+ LINUX: Fixed some window decorations would cause initial document window
to be black.
+ Moon phase translations added to (American(, British(,) Svenska(,
Francais(, Italiano(, Nederlands(, Espanol(, Esperanto(, Dansk(,
Deutsch(, Portuguese(4), Cestina(
+ AMIGA: Fixed attachment of General Prefs.
+ AMIGA: Fixed Line&Fill, print and other tabbed groups.
+ AMIGA: Added Clipboard support.
+ LINUX: Really, paste bug fixed!
+ AMIGA: Preferences, Line&Fill and other complex requesters fixed.
+ WINDOWS: Added support for odd DIB clipboard format for pasting screen
captures in Windows XP.
+ Icons labels in Preferences->Toolbox are placed with the proper group now.
+ WINDOWS: Icon labels in Preferences->Toolbox should now display.
+ WINDOWS: Edit palette should properly switch between displays fixing bug
introduced in 5.0.2.10.
+ Removed bug that limited INSERT text commands to be cut off at 512 bytes per
insert.
+ Numerous new scripts commands added for creating requesters and getting user
responses. RequesterExample.py shows a few methods.
** path =
GetFolderPath(type[Filters|Engines|Effects|Printers|Special|Colors|
**
CharacterSets|Libraries|SoftLogik|Application|Module|Home|Preferences|Temporary])
** rsch =
AlertRequester(ALERTTYPE[ERROR|WARNING|NOTE|QUESTION],msg,buttons)
** coord = GetCoordFromString(string, defaultmeasurementtype)
** string = GetUIStringFromCoord(coord, MEASUREMENT_TYPE)
** string = GetCmdStringFromCoord(coord, MEASUREMENT_TYPE)
** rsch = OpenResource(rootname)
** CloseResource(rsch)
** rsch = GetResourceString(rsch, tableid, stringid)
** reqh = CreateRequester(rsch, reqid)
** FreeRequester(reqh)
** DoRequester(reqh)
** listh = CreateList()
** FreeList(listh)
** nodeh = AppendListString(listh, string)
** nodeh = PrependListString(listh, string)
** SetControlAttr(reqh, ctrlid,
attr[STRING,LIST,NUMBER,CURRENT,MIN,MAX,NUMCHARS,STATE,MIXEDSTATE], data)
** data = GetControlAttr(reqh, ctrlid,
attr[STRING,LIST,NUMBER,CURRENT,MIN,MAX,NUMCHARS,STATE,MIXEDSTATE])
** languagelist = CreateLanguageEngineList()
** FreeLanguageEngineList(languagelist)
** formatedstring = DoLanguageEngineFormatDate(languagelist,
languagename, formatstr, year, month, day)
** localizedstring = DoLanguageEngineLocalizeString(languagelist,
languagename, string)
** where string can be:
NewMoon,WaxingCrescent,FirstQuarter,WaxingGibbous,FullMoon,WaningGibbous,LastQuarter,WaningCrescent
