Greetings All!

I'm pleased to announce that TiddlyWiki Classic, version 2.7.2 BETA 1,
is now available for viewing/download, here:
    http://www.tiddlywiki.com/beta

IMPORTANT: This revision is on an shortened release schedule and,
barring any reports of critical "show stopper" errors, will be
promoted to full release within the next week.

This revision includes the following changes:

* Backstage>import:
  See https://github.com/TiddlyWiki/tiddlywiki/issues/116

Importing tiddlers now uses "FileReader" API whenever available
(currently supported by Chrome, Firefox 20+, etc.).  This new HTML5-
standard browser-based file I/O handling does not require any special
privileges or security permissions to read contents of files that you
interactively select from your local filesystem, and you can now
successfully import tiddler from files that are outside of the current
folder.

Note: this change only applies when you use the "browse" (or "select
file") button to interactively choose a document from your local
filesystem.   If you manually enter (or paste) a local "file://" URL
into the import form (or if FileReader handling is not supported by
your browser version), the existing browser-specific file I/O
functions are used, which still requires security permissions and/or
other add-ons to permit reading of file contents; e.g. TiddlyFox
(FireFox), TiddlySaver java applet (Chrome, Safari, Opera, etc.), or
ActiveX (Internet Explorer).

* Internet Explorer:
  See https://github.com/TiddlyWiki/tiddlywiki/issues/118

When using IE10 (the current version of IE), special-case handling of
embedded newlines in PRE-formatted blocks is no longer applied.  This
corrects a formatting/display error introduced by changes in IE10.
Note: this change only applies to IE10 and above; special handling is
still applied to embedded newlines in IE9 and earlier so there should
be no change to existing content when viewed on IE9 or earlier.

enjoy,
