[Texttest-users] StoryText 3.12 released

[Geoff B. <geo...@gm...>]

Hi all,

As usual I've made a StoryText release as well having got going with
releases.

Highlights include:

- Basic support for PyGI added, so PyGTK support is now compatible with
GTK3 applications.
- StoryText Editor GUI now allows user to choose when there are several
variants of an action description
- SWT/Eclipse enhancements, notable improved image description and NatTable
support being more mature and complete

See http://www.texttest.org/index.php?page=ui_testing for more details.

Regards,
Geoff
