New  Standalones
If you use a standalone to run your Scrapbook/s, you should  download a new 
standalone based on 2.8.1 (not available for Mac OS9) after  updating. You can 
get the standalone of your choice at the on-line library from  your Home 
screen, or from the website. If you download a trial version  standalone 
starter-kit, the new standalone is included.


Built-in  API
We are also happy to announce version 1.21 of the Scripter's Scrapbook  API 
with improvements to the command set, supported by an updated Handbook (both  
the interactive version and the online documentation). The new Handbook is  
included whether you update online as an existing User or download a trial  
version starter-kit.



YOUR NEXT STEP
- Registered and Trial  users should update through the Help menu or in the 
Preferences.

- New  users and those interested in reviewing the changes since an earlier 
trial may  obtain a free 30-day starter-kit at www.FlexibleLearning.com/ssbk. 
You will be  asked if you wish to obtain the most recent version, and if there 
is one it can  be automatically downloaded for you.

- Full size screen shots for both  Mac OSX and Windows XP are at 
www.FlexibleLearning.com/ssbk/preview including  useful mouse shortcuts 
illustrations.


FEEDBACK
As always, if you  have a moment to suggest improvements or request 
additional features we would  very much appreciate your feedback at

Scripter's Scrapbook: Updating from 5.2.12 to 5.2.13...

2007-09-01 Thread FlexibleLearning 
A problem has been reported in the updater notification on Mac OSX.
 
OSX users should not update using the 'Automatic' setting in 5.2.12. It  
seems an inadvertant loop is created on this platform. Turn off 'Automatic' in  
your Preferences and check manually. We are working on solving this.

New Variable Watcher v14 Is Available

2007-09-01 Thread Ken Ray 
I have uploaded a new version of the Variable Watcher to the MC_IDE 
user group on Yahoo (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/MC_IDE), that 
includes the following changes:

- Fixed bug where attempting to step over a line where the 
linedelimiter was changed to something else would cause a script error.
- Added RIP properties to the VW.
- Fixed bug where arrays passed as parameters to a handler wouldn't 
show their values properly.
- Fixed bug where arrays passed as parameters to a handler would 
display twice, once as a parameter and once as a local variable.

Instructions for installing the VW into your current copy of MetaCard 
is included (as always). 

(Klaus, if you could put this into your current build for the MC IDE 
that would be great.)

Enjoy, and let me know if you find any other bugs or would like any 
features added to the VW...
