Thank you!

I'd been running a version build from the March 24 code, which has been 
working pretty well. I've had a few complaints from users about windows 
occasionally failing to close and one about a problem scrolling, but 
otherwise just fine. In any case it's probably pretty close to 
ActiveState's version. And it may be worth trying some newer source code.

I cannot seem to find those hashes. Are they git commits or some other VCS?
