[iSQL-Viewer Release] Version 2.1.1 Released

[<isq...@li...>]

Well after much time since the last release this one is long overdue.

I apologize for the unusual time gap between releases hopefully with 
things
calming down at my job I can have more gumption to work on iSQL in the 
evenings.

Anyhow lots of good stuff this time, so hopefully it is worth the wait
Key Points about this new release are.

  * iSQL-Viewer is now available via Install-Anywhere for easier install 
and use.
  * Support of IBM's BSF Engine to include support for using JPython 
scripts.
  * Incorporating the jEdits Syntax Package component for syntax 
highlighting.
  * New Bookmark feature to keep common SQL without relying on history 
buffer.
  * Better Control over Rendering complex data type such as BLOB and 
CLOBS.
  * Better support/behavior for Mac OSX

A full list of things improved/changed/added can be found at the 
following URL

I do know of some problems with this release particularly with the 
service manager and saving preferences, as well as other little nuances 
that hopefully
doesn't receive much criticism

This version will not be released via Java Web start for various 
reasons at this
time. I am tossing around the idea of actually just dropping the whole 
web start thing all together with the advent of the install anywhere 
files. Any comments
suggestion on this topic are welcome.

I highly recommend using the Install-Anywhere packages as it setups 
your classpaths with the right XML Libraries and BSF Script Engine with 
JPython Support with no extra intervention. This hopefully will save me 
the headache of trying to fix every possible classpath problem that can 
happen this way.

I would also like to take this time for any and all those who voted for 
me
at the JDJ Readers Choice awards, I appreciate the support.
