[GLE-announce] GLE 4.2.4c Released

[Announcing G. r. <glx...@li...>]

Dear All,

This is to let you know that GLE 4.2.4c has been released. It is 
available for download from <http://www.gle-graphics.org/>.

Note: this is only a bug fix release. It does not contain the new 
features that are already in the GIT master / trunk repository 
[*].

This release fixes the following issues:
* Added checks on number of data sets, bar definitions, and fill definitions (QGLE crash reports 02/07/2012 and 02/16/2012)
* Save .glerc in user's AppData on Windows
* Added manifest to prevent AUC Virtualization on Windows Vista and above
* Search "C:\Program Files (x86)" on 64 bit Windows for installed software
* Fixed type in manual: logfit -> logefit
* Fixed bug in tokenizer
* Fixed crash when parsing "let d1 = x.x" (QGLE crash report 02/28/2012)
* Fix for message "QWidget::setWindowModified: The window title does not contain a '[*]' placeholder"
* Fixed bug in centering of .inc output (reported by Antonio DiCesare)
* Bug 3485409: GLE should check for Cairo version >= 1.10.0
* Added Python script to generate GLE palette functions (contributed by Brandon Aubie)
* Fixed "too many open files" when including bitmaps in filled boxes (reported by Alexis Letessier)
* Fixed issue with filled boxes (reported by Alexis Letessier)
* Make GLE compile with GCC 4.7.x (issue raised by Terje Rsten)
* Support other 64bit systems besides x86
* Fixed more GLU problems introduced in Qt4.8

Some of these were reported by the QGLE crash reporting feature 
on Windows. Please continue to submit these crash reports. They 
are very useful.

Best Regards,

Jan

[*] I'm referring to these:
* Bitmap caching in the Cairo device (suggested by Alexis Letessier)
* Added "-inverse" option to inverse black / white colors (based on patch by Brandon Aubie)
* Added "percent" number formatting option (patch by Brandon Aubie)
* Added "textcolor" to the key block (patch by Brandon Aubie)

These new features will be included in GLE 4.2.5.
