Jerry,
A quick warning about Flight Gear and 4.03.
Some of the features that worked with Flight Gear in 4.02 don't work in 4.03
becuase Newtek has somehow broken their own Arexx scripts (or the calls those
scripts make to Flyer resources). One in particular is the direct loading of
graphiocs such as Jpeg images into Toaster framebuffers. This feature worked
just fine with 3.94 and 4.02, but not in 4.03. It;s not HArold's fault, since
he did nothing to change his software, so if you run across a bug with FG, you
might want to see if that process works with Flyer when called directly from
Flyer's own Arexx scripts before calling Harold about it. He's aware of a few
other things that got screwed up in 4.03, one of which is affecting his release
of the TimelLine/Insert Edit features he was working on.
Everything else I had a chance to test in FG with the above noted exception
worked ok. A couple of minor bugs that affected requesters has already been
addressed for the 1.0 release that ships this week from Atomic.
Enjoy!!
Frank
