I have released the v1.34 PUBLIC version of CMUD.

This version fixes several bugs, and is the public version containing the new script editor, and full support for alternate scripting languages.
----

While I was debugging the problem with opening the mapper window in CMUD v1.33, I discovered that the problem was caused by some sort of data corruption in my Delphi command-line compiler. The command-line compiler (used by my automated build script to build the release version) was generating different code than my Delphi IDE (used for development). So the release version was crashing, but it wasn't crashing within the Delphi IDE.

When I tried to manually rebuild all of my libraries, the command-line compiler started crashing and doing all sorts of strange things. I copied over a backup of the Delphi command-line program from my laptop and then rebuilt my libraries and then it worked fine.

After doing this, the release version of CMUD no longer gives an error when trying to open the mapper window. So I attribute this weird bug to the Delphi compiler corruption. The Delphi compiler somehow got corrupted after the 1.26 version of CMUD was released.

I have no idea what other weird crashes and bugs this might fix. The 1.34 version that I released doesn't actually have any code changes...it just recompiles with the fixed compiler. If this fixes any other problems that you notice, please create a new topic thread to let me know. In particular, if you experienced the weird problem with the backspace key not clearing text in the edit boxes, create a new topic to let me know if this problem still occurs in 1.34.

I decided to go ahead and release this fix, rather than waiting till the big new 2.0 version at the end of July because I didn't want to get a bunch of bad crash dump reports caused by this compiler corruption. In fact, I probably can't trust any v1.33 crash dump reports at this point unless I can easily reproduce them.

Hopefully this version will work better for everyone.

I just uploaded another version of 1.34 this morning. If you care about the button ellipses (...) problem, or the backspace corruption in edit boxes problem, then download this new version of 1.34. It should fix both issues now.

I just wonder if CMUD works on the Mac platform?

No. CMUD's written in Delphi, which Zugg has previously said precludes a mac version (I think).
