Release of version 0.21.0 of CodeInvestigator

2010-01-10 Thread hans moleman
CodeInvestigator 0.21.0 was released on January 11.

Bug changes:

- In Windows, a shortcut was only created when an Administrator
  did the install:
  Administrator privileges are no longer required.


Functionality changes:

- Tabs styling.
- Drive letters show in the sub-menu under Windows.
- 'About' in Menu
- Changed the code background colors.
- Firefox doesn't need to be closed down before a restart of CI.


You need Python 2.6 and Firefox for CodeInvestigator.

CodeInvestigator is a tracing tool for Python programs.

Running a program through CodeInvestigator creates a recording.
Program flow, function calls, variable values and conditions are all
stored for every line the program executes.
The recording is then viewed with an interface consisting of the
code. The code can be clicked: A clicked variable displays its
value,
a clicked loop displays its iterations.
You read code, and have at your disposal all the run time details of
that code. A computerized desk check tool and another way to learn
about your program.
