• SyncTERM v1.2 rc3 released!

    From Deuce@VERT to All on Sun Oct 20 22:05:59 2024
    Over four years since the last stable release, SyncTERM v1.2 is nearing completion.

    This is the third release candidate for SyncTERM v1.2. If there are no bugs, reported in the next week or two, this will become the official SyncTERM
    release (for the next four years perhaps).

    To that end, if you use SyncTERM, please try the rc3 release, and report any bugs you find. If you're not sure if something is a bug, open a support ticket and ask.

    Changes since rc2:
    Get Haiku support building again
    Properly quit video subsystem from video thread - fixes Haiku crash
    Create dirs on macOS when needed - fixes adding first BBS
    Fix cache subdirectories on Windows
    Make File Locations window wider
    Ensure window can be resized if started in fullscreen mode
    Fix macOS mouse position reporting

    Bugs and Support tickets (and feature requests) are tracked on the SourceForge page at http://sf.net/p/syncterm/ if you create a SourceForge account, you can be notified when I reply/fix bugs, and it really helps in case I need to ask follow-up questions, so please consider making that account and logging in before opening a ticket. That said, I would rather have bug reports as
    anonymous than not know about issues.
