A new VEDIT 6.12 beta dated 20-May-2004 is now available at:
http://www.vedit.com/download/vp64-beta.exe
It addresses many issues (minor bug fixes and suggestions) that have recently been discussed in this conference.
It includes new versions of various macros that have been updated since 01-Apr-2004: wildfwiz.vdm, webxref.vdm, color.vdm, compdir.vdm, print.vdm, opencurs.vdm, linefilt.vdm, box-draw.vdm, compile.vdm, projsave.vdm and clipcatch.vdm.
Many thanks to Christian Ziemski for working on most of these macros.
If no major problems are found, it will soon be the release version.
