Hi all,

Thanks to all the beta testers of v20, you found a lot of bugs!!
The  2nd beta is now ready.  If you downloaded the first beta
you should replace it with the new beta.

You can download it from
ftp://entropia.com/gimps/v20/p95setup.exe  (the fancy installation program)
or
ftp://entropia.com/gimps/v20/prime95.zip (a plain old zip file)


The whatsnew.txt file reads as follows:

New features in Version 20.1 of prime95.exe
-------------------------------------------

1)  A bug in the new GCD code was fixed.
2)  Timings in the P-1 stage are no longer cumulative.  There is a new
     feature in undoc.txt for those that prefer cumulative timings.
3)  Messages are now output prior to beginning the lengthy GCD.
4)  The FactorOverride undocumented feature (not for use with PrimeNet) now
     supports factoring to a deeper level than prime95 would ordinarily factor.
5)  A bug where the worktodo.ini entry was not removed if P-1 found a factor
     was fixed.
6)  If P-1 finds a factor it now deletes any Lucas-Lehmer intermediate files.
7)  A crash bug when continuing from a P-1 stage 2 save files with
     different available memory parameters was fixed.
8)  Resuming an LL test now outputs a line to the screen,
9)  The Test/Status display now correctly calculates the estimated completion
     time for an LL test when P-1 factoring is in progress.
10) Advanced/Factor menu choice was deleted.
11) A bug in computing P-1 stage 2 percentage complete was fixed.

Have fun,
George
