1. Damien Version 0.03a -- New update

Hello everyone,

I have uploaded version 0.03a of Damien to my WEB page at:


Included in the new features are:

1. The Menu Editor now permits you to modify previously generated menus.

2. The Print option is now fully functional.

3. The Save All option is now fully functional.

4. Added a new file menu option. The "New" file option will allow you to
open an empty file in the editor.

5. Generated Menus are now saved and properly restored via the project file.

6. The Damien environment is more properly restored when you load a project
file, allowing you to pick up where you left off and continue developing
your project.

7. This release addresses most of the shortcomings of the previous versions
and should permit you to produce useful applications, save them to a
project file, and subsequently restore and further develop the project.

8. Since ONLY the EXE file has changed in this version of Damien, I've
provided the option of downloading only that file provided you previously
downloaded the complete package for either of the older versions.


User feedback is welcome...

Enjoy... Gary.

first thanks a lot for vel and damien. i am developing euphoria/win32
programs -not (yet) commercially- using vel since 4 weeks. the
first utility, a gui archive repacker, will be released soon as
freeware. vel is really an easy way to create gui windows programs.
keep on the good work.

damien: just downloaded 0.03a, not yet tested;
        but i have an idea for version 0.10 / 0.50 / 1.00 :
        wizards
        what about an extendable wizard system?
        the wizard engine would read the wizard settings (wizard
        dialogs, code to insert into program source, etc.) from a file
        or from the registry and display the dialogs where the user
        can enter the variables/names/attributes of the newly created
        controls.
        there could be, for example:
         - an about box wizard  which creates a button or a menu entry
           which triggers the display of the about box
         - a file/directory listing wizard, which creates controls and
           event handlers to list the contents of your drives
           etc.
        this could speed up the coding process, especially if the user
        can define his own wizards and shares them with other damien
        users.


vel experimental: it is not normal that you can resize a statusbar in
                  a nonresizeable window. it doesn't crash my programs
                  but it is a graphical bug so crush it please.
                  thanks:)

Best regards,
 Hendrik                            mailto:hm-1704 at gmx.de

3. Re: Damien Version 0.03a -- New update

Hi Hendrik,

First of all... thanks for the compliments. They're VERY much appreciated.
Secondly, please download version 0.04a instead of trying 0.03a. That
version had a few nasty bugs that I've eliminated in 0.04a.

You have quite an impressive "wish" list there. I'll keep your ideas in a
folder for future reference. As you can imagine, It's quite a daunting task
just to kill all the bugs in these early versions, so I don't think I'll be
looking too far ahead just now.

I would like some more info about the statusbar problem you mentioned. You
can send it to my email address if you wish.

Thanks again... Gary.
