 | | [LDAO] New beta version available
|
|
I've uploaded a new beta of LDAO. It includes a bunch of changes, and it needs a good shake-down cruise. I've posted more information, and the download file, on my GeoCities site. Go to (URL) for the whole story. The information there says to e-mail (...) (25 years ago, 29-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

The subdirectory access makes life a whole lot easier :) The only problems I've foungd so far is that you can not move a file to another directory, but you can place a copy of it there. The other thing is, on the computer I'm on now, the family (...) (25 years ago, 30-Jun-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

One other problem I found is that after using the MOVER, when it gives you the option to save changes, it gives an error when you try to do that. Also I've noticed that the mover will delete a word or two in the header, and if the first line after (...) (25 years ago, 1-Jul-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Yes, They were with 2.1.0, but let me just check... hmm doesn't seem to be doing it, maybe it was on the other one I was using, which was two before this beta. Maybe I was just confused. I was going between the two last night. I'd have both open and (...) (25 years ago, 1-Jul-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) Well, I went and checked again, and you were right about Mover eating the first on each line of header comments. That's been fixed. I've *got* to make Mover do recursive corrections (ie, fix submodels). And directory-wide operations. Steve (25 years ago, 1-Jul-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

There are definitely issues: with the beta, with the development version on my hard drive, and with my available time. I made the mistake of withdrawing a relatively decent beta (2.0.4) before posting the 2.1.0. And I didn't keep the 2.0.4 files. At (...) (25 years ago, 25-Aug-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
