A new VEDIT 6.12 beta-test, dated 03-May-2004 is now available on our website; assuming no major problems are found, it will be the release version. It can be downloaded from:
http://www..../download/vp64-beta.exe
It primarily has most of the minor enhancements, new macros and bug fixes that have been recently discussed in this conference.
VEDIT's installation macro uses the new Create_Shortcut() command which results in a more stable (and faster) installation.
The veditlog.txt lists the significant improvements and fixes:
