The final VEDIT 5.15 "betatest" is available at:

www.vedit.com/download/vpw-prod.exe (32-bit Windows only)
www.vedit.com/download/vw-pro64.exe (32 and 64-bit Windows)
www.vedit.com/download/vpa-prod.exe (Windows and DOS)

* On-line help is complete for FTP and email support. The "Whats New" topic in the on-line help has links to the new sections.

* Installs onto USB drive - this option does not affect the current installation, e.g. it does not change the registry, it DOES NOT create icons to the USB drive.

* Christian Ziemski's "Linenumbers" macro is included as {EDIT, Insert, Line numbers}.

The current plan is to (finally) "release" 6.15 this week, send out a newsletter and to release 6.20 next month with only a few enhancements. 6.20 will include:

* Continue improvements to FTP support
* Include Christian Ziemski's UTF-8 conversion
* Read-only option in Wildfile and Wilfile wizard as suggested by Ian Binnie
* A new "Publish" function to send files via ftp, SecureFX or other programs
