History

• 1.15
  Modifications to make the Macintosh OSX port work better. Mostly cleanup of the help system.
• 1.14
  Fixed a nagging bug that duplicated entries when updating (not replacing) the database.
  Did some minor code optimization.
• 1.13
  Added MacOS/X Support. Moved data directory to $HOME for Unix/MacOS systems. Changed to better looking progress bars.
• 1.12
  Added support for saving and editing preferences. Cleaned up proxy support. Improved viewer widget and toplevel dialog boxes. Fixed file save bug that generated too many fixed-size files.
• 1.11
  Added improved viewing widget with support for searching, marking text and bookmarks.
  Fixed bug in saving single text files.
• 1.10
  Fixed problem in automatic file name creation that made illegal names under Windows.
  Added support for saving text in multiple files of a fixed size. This is to support text-to-speech software that limits the input file size.
• 1.9
  Modified parsing catalog.rdf to handle new catalog.rdf format. Modified comboBox to be as wide as necessary based on contents. Added support for multiple URLs to handle audiobooks with multiple parts.
• 1.8
  Fixed bug that was putting URL for readme and index.htm instead of actual document in database. Changed display to show type instead of etext ID. Added support for downloading audio books.
• 1.7
  Added support for downloading binary files (Recorded Music, pictures, etc), changed database building to use all info in catalog.rdf and not require other data files. Added support for showing multiple authors. Added textual error messages for HTTP failures. Added support for extracting files from zip archives.

  Added support for full database rebuild (from File menu).
  If you were using previous versions of TkGutenBrowse, you must do this to access image and audio files.
  Prior to this release, the URL's for non-text files were just plain wrong (my fault, not Project Gutenberg's). Updating the database adds new entries, but does not fix old ones. Rebuilding the database takes a little longer, but will fix the old data as well as adding new entries.

• 1.6
  Improved data file parsing - was skipping some books. Added support for opening multiple books at once. Improved paragraph re-formatting.
• 1.5
  Support for opening books saved on local disks.
  Reformats paragraphs into a single long line. This allows pdb files and the local text viewer to format paragraphs to fit the screen properly.
  Extended help. It's still too little, but it's less too little.
• 1.4
  Support for Project Gutenberg's new rdf text format (data changed sometime in mid October)
  Support for putting all data files in a single sub-folder.
• 1.3
  Fixed bad URL mapping that downloaded incorrect text files.
• 1.2
  Modifications to run under Windows.
• 1.1
  First pass help files. First Linux release.
