1. Win32lib v0.60.5 available

The latest release is available from

 http://www.users.bigpond.com/ddparnell/euphoria/win32lib_006005.zip (1.58MB)

Change log:

 http://www.users.bigpond.com/ddparnell/euphoria/Docs/changes.htm

Known issues:
When using XP manifests (application specific themes) for EXW.EXE ...
**  Buttons defined inside a Group control are rendered with a thick 
    black border.
** Groups defined inside a Group control have the wrong font size
   for their caption text.

I've tried many, many things to overcome these and I have failed. Anyone
else wants a crack at them they are welcome. I've given up. So much so
that I developed an alternate to the Windows supplied Group control. Mine
works! It's called a GroupAdv and is supplied as an optional add-on to
win32lib.

The issue with Judith's IDE and the new win32lib (Property window sometimes
does not respond) is easily fixed. Its in the IDE's include file "prop.ew".
You need to find the code in createProperties() that calls createEx(). For
each one that has "WS_CHILD" as a flag, add "WS_TABSTOP". 

For example...

  {WS_VISIBLE, WS_CHILD, WS_VSCROLL, WS_CLIPCHILDREN}

becomes 

  {WS_VISIBLE, WS_CHILD, WS_TABSTOP, WS_VSCROLL, WS_CLIPCHILDREN}

My offer to update the sourceforge release still stands, 
if you or Derek will add me to the admin list. User name there 
is eugtk.

Sounds good to me!  OK, you've been added to the project:

I'm having trouble getting onto sourceforge. It's as if the
site is always down!

I check a couple of times per day, it's always worked, if a bit 
slowly. A couple of days ago, they were updating servers or 
something, and the sites were 'read-only' for a few hours.

BTW, win32lib 0.60.5 is now posted there. It would be nice to hide 
some of the older releases, but I don't think I have permission to 
do that.

My fault. I was spelling the site name incorrectly!

It would also be nice if the "project home page" link pointed to something 
other than an empty directory. I could make a page, or set a link to your 
euphoria page, but currently sorceforge sends me directly to the eugtk 
area when I log in via ssh, and I can't figure out how to move from there 
to the win32lib directory.

After you log in, you go to:

/home/groups/w/wi/win32libex/htdocs

That's where the web stuff gets uploaded.  Here's a link to the sf web
services docs:

Great. That works. Now, would you rather have a new webpage, or just a 
link to Derek's Win32lib page?

A link would probably be fine for now, or even a mirror (plus the 
obligatory sf logos) would be good (and easy). If you're up for doing a
new page, I certainly wouldn't object!

A new page. Who knows how long my site will be up.
