Hi!

Another snapshot of my tkined and scotty sources is available:

ftp.ibr.cs.tu-bs.de [134.169.34.15]

/pub/local/tkined/tkined-0.9k.tar.gz
/pub/local/tkined/scotty-0.9k.tar.gz

This is an incompatibility release :-). I cleaned up some things and
changed the programming interface slightly. If you have written your
own scripts, you will have to do some homework now:

o The TOOL object has been renamed to MENU. In most cases, changing
the 'ined create TOOL ...' commands to 'ined create MENU ...' will
update your scripts.

o The 'ined label <id> text <some text>' command has been removed.
Instead, you can set a text attribute with 'ined text <id> <some text>'
and set the label to the text attribute with 'ined label <id> text'.

Simply change all lines with 'ined label <id> text <some text>'
to the sequence 'ined text <id> <some text>; ined label <id> text'

As a feature, multi line labels are working now.

o The 'ined confirm', 'ined list' and 'ined request' dialogs have changed.
All three dialogs expect an additional parameter with a list of buttons
that go in the bottom of the dialog window. The confirm dialog returns
the button actually pressed by the use, the list and browse dialogs
return a list with the values set by the user. The first element is
always the button pressed to close the dialog window.

I have changed all the scripts in the scotty source tree to this new
format. I also edited the tkined source quite heavily, so there might
be places where I just put in typos. Please test this release and report
all problems to me. I am in particular interested in portability problems
and things that worked with previous versions but are broken now.

If I do not get reports about broken things, I will name this version
1.0 which should be stable in the next month. Thanks for testing this
release,

Juergen
