             ---  What's new  ---

This version (1.1.0.* - smw110.zip) corrects the following problems
and add the following new features:

   * Marking and copying text by the mouse in VIO windows now works
     correctly even if only mouse button 1 is selected without
     causing any conflict with those programs which detect and use
     mouse button 1 click events.
   * In some circumstances, with the Automatic focus feature enabled,
     windows were receiving undue get-focus messages even if they
     already had the focus. This bug has been fixed now.
   * The code for painting the shades used as titlebar background has
     been completely re-written. Now shades are painted much more
     faster and a partial dithering is used for improving the look of
     horizontal shades. Besides that, new shades syles have been
     added to the ordinary horizontal and vertical shades styles.
   * Now the bitmaps used as titlebar background may be optionally
     stretched to fit the titlebar size.
   * Some new sets of bitmaps for the titlebar buttons have been
     added. These include:
        o an almost complete set of bitmaps by Don K. Eitner,
        o roll and unroll bitmaps by Ulrich Moller,
        o some x-windows bitmaps suggested by a member of Team OS/2
          Italy (sorry I do not remember who actually sent me the
          original images),
        o some "spherical" bitmaps elaborated from a sketch by Teo
          Pace.
   * The installation/uninstallation program has been completely
     rewritten.
   * The installer checks for the MPTS.EXE program and adds it to the
     exceptions if not yet present there.
   * The registration program and the preferences program have been
     reviewed in order to make use of only one dll for the common
     code and another dll for the language related resources. This
     will make it easier to translate the program to other languages
     than English in future.
   * The help buttons now opens the proper page of the program
     documentation.

My home page will be updated in few days with more details and new
screenshots:
