In the newest version if I select "Insert character" Pagestream crashes,
in the console you can read:

(PageStream4:8181): Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtktable.c: line 600
(gtk_table_attach): assertion `left_attach < right_attach' failed

Thanks. Fixed in the version going up now. (1.1 mb and counting...) Should
be done in another two hours. Sigh...

Might as well give you the scoop on the next release coming up then. The
biggest news is flyouts and toolbar support. The flyout right now responds
to right mouse clicks. Still not sure if I should throw in the left mouse
delay flyout also...

OK, the file is now uploaded!

Insert Character now displays properly.
Fixed extra & in Line & Fill menu.
Fixed math overflow that made selecting objects difficult.
Another attempt at fixing the problem with saving prefs for some users. Seems
now to be related to using , as decimal point.
Setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the path of the PageStream libraries is not
necessary
if PageStream is installed at /opt/PageStream4 or /usr/local/PageStream4.
Toolbar with hints now working! Plus toolbar toggles working also.
Flyouts now working (right click).
Added application icon.
Added help button support.
Added menu shortcuts.
Added default button support.

I'd like the delay click. BTW: the icon's don't update for the selection.

Yep

hmm... I'm sticking with my isolated installations for now, but good to have
anyway.

Yep, although as noted above the icon doesn't update.

Noticed. Cool!

The bad news: typing is broken. The only letters that I can type are:

befhiknoqvxyzBEFHIKNOQVXYZ

Also, the copy to something outside of PgS is still not working. Oh well.
Accidental paste to the pasteboard crashed PgS. Doh!

Hmmm... Further checking. This behavior differed when using frameless text.
Capital A was okay, but lowercase was not.

The keystrokes are simply not registered. For example, type some text and
select it. Type a lowercase a and nothing happens.

Could you better explain what you mean by the icons don't update? I see the
selected tool in the toolbox, is that what you mean?

No problem. It was asked that this be implemented. You of course can
install it anywhere you like

Yea. I have yet to find out why. The rest of the world seems a bit wacked
to me I can paste from other applications, so I must have that correct.
And I can copy/paste within PageStream, which tells me I must be copying
the same information I need to the pasteboard as the other applications are
pasting. So some dependency I am missing is not there. Unfortunately,
documentation on what to actually put in the clipboard (or make available
through drag-n-drop) is very sparse...

Yeah. Its not updating here. That is, if I select the three-column I still see
only the one-column tool. If I use it it is the three-columns so I know it is
selecting it.

Just an extraneous comment, not meant seriously. I welcome the change
actually.

I remembered that being a bug, just thought I'd try in case you'd fixed it and
forgotten to mention ;^) Also, I don't recall it being mentioned about
pasting to pasteboard crashing. Maybe it has been -- I know my memory is only
good for the last few minutes if that.
