OpenCBM 0.4.99.99 has been published.
The only change is for Windows, where the tool xum154cfg was replaced by the tool that is also used on all other platforms. The old tool was plainly wrong and outdated.

Finally...
I made OpenCBM 0.4.99.98 the "official" version. The files can be found in the files section.
It comes with an updated manual, and a quick installation guide.
More info to come.

As it seems this went unnoticed for many people:

The git URL has been changed. This is because of some reorganisation on SourceForge's path. Unfortunately, the old git repositry is still available, which can make you believe you get the latest, when you do not.

If you do not have an check in from 2013, you are on the wrong repository.

Have a look at https://sourceforge.net/p/opencbm/code/ci/master/tree/ to find out the new URL of the repository, or change it to git://git.code.sf.net/p/opencbm/code (RO access for non-developers) or ssh://USERNAME@git.code.sf.net/p/opencbm/code (RW access for developers) in order to get the latest.... read more

A new version of OpenCBM has been released.

This is mainly a bugfix release. The binary distribution of version 0.4.1 on Windows was not correctly build and included (unnecessary) debug information. Additionally, the documentation was missing. This has been fixed now. For Linux, v0.4.1 and v0.4.2 are identical, only the version number and date have changed. If you do not have any problems with 0.4.1, you do not need to change to this version.... read more

Again, Payton worked on the GUI. From his web page:

"The last couple of releases didn’t get tested too well, but I’ve spent two days working on this release and testing things as thoroughly as possible. If you find a bug, please let me know!

Fixes:

* Default Directory now works.
* Using a different directory on the PC now works for all transfers"

Payton Byrd took over gui4cbm4win and generated new versions of it. Currently, he has reached v0.6.1.

Note, however, that this "new" version of gui4cbm4win needs .NET installed on your machine in order to run, unlike the old versions (< v0.4.1)

The new version can be downloaded here:

Version 0.4.1 of gui4cbm4win has been released. This release is just a minor change on top of v0.4.1: Fixed a problem with the "scratch" button, and added a "validate" button.

Have fun!

The long-awaited GUI for cbm4win, named gui4cbm4win, has been released for the version 0.4.0 of cbm4win/OpenCBM. It does not add any functionality, but adds support for the latest version of cbm4win, 0.4.0.
