File Release Notes and Changelog
Notes:
*** Notes when upgrading from 0.4.x to 0.5.0 ***
- Versions of RKWard 0.5.0 or higher are designed for KDE 4, and cannot be used with KDE 3. For KDE 3 use the 0.4.x versions.
- The build system was changed to CMake. Read INSTALL for details on how to build RKWard.
- Due to clashes with kate default shortcuts, the shortcuts for Run->Run Line, Run Selection, and Run All were changed to Shift+F7, Shift+F8, Shift+F9, respectively.
- The tabs in the main workplace view no longer have a close button that is shown when hovering the mouse over the respective icon. Rather, there is a single button to close the current tab, shown at the right of the tab bar.
