Erm, yes, I'm just a bit busy at the mo' and not ready to put out a new version for at least a few weeks. > Which is the latest version? There are two branches. The 1.3 stuff is still handled by Tony Bybell and includes all his latest LXT work. The 2.0 work is carried out by me and aims to make GTKWave much easier to add new things to and to allow others to add file format readers. I'm not sure how successful I've been in this respect. > Are both the 1.3 and 2.0 branches moving forward? Yes > What is the latest version for which a Windows binary is available? I don't provide Windows binaries for 2.0 (or any other type of binaries with the exception of the odd MacOSX look-it-really-does-work type of build). I welcome others providing Windows binaries, however, but I really don't want to be asked about them. Tony's branch has, at various points, made it into binary form for Win32 platforms but I don't know where to get the binaries from or who generates them. > Which is the "official site" for gtkwave? http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/apt/tools/gtkwave/index.html for the 2.0 branch. You can also find a mirror of the 1.3 distribution here (when I remember to copy the files!). The 1.3 stuff can be found at: http://www.linux-workshop.com/bybell/ver/wave/wave.html too. > Is there anonymous CVS access?

I look forward to code submissions for other formats and decent support for better upper/lower bounds handling etc. > Thanks > Matt Pleasure --- Andrew (your GTKWave 2.0 (pre ;)) maintainer) __________________ ___/Dr Andrew Bardsley\_________________________________________ The University of Manchester Dept. of Computer Science APT Group Research Fellow bardsley AT cs.man.ac.uk Tel: +44 161 275 6844 Snail: Room IT302, Man.
