Hi Folks,
undo is broken in 1.0.0. As noted by a user, undo now is
effectively "revoke". All editing in a session is undone on pressing
undo right now.
I have uploaded Jeremey's build for 1.0 to sourceforge. It would be great
to have bidi, plugins and spelling modules for windows but it appears
nobody else has time to work on these.
Do we want to continue with 1.0.0 or abort and do 1.0.1? I'll leave that
up to Dom.
I have editted the press release David Chart wrote. I'm happy with it but
if you don't like it please feel free to edit it and remail it to the
list.
Cheers
Martin
