Version 6.2.2 29 Dec 2021

Bugfixes and Improvements in 6.2.2

Bugfixes

• Fixed crash on OSX when running EDALL before defining any procedures.
• Fixed crash when stopping programs using the Stop menu item.
• Fixed segmentation fault when TEXT is used inside DEFINE.
• HELP handles paginated results correctly.
• OSX build correctly packages ` and # commands.
• Terminal echoes character-at-a-time input.
• OPENUPDATE opens the file for both reading and writing and starts the file pointer at the end of the file.
• SETPENCOLOR rgblist sets the pen color to the RGB value in rgblist.

User Experience Improvements

• Removed non-functional duplicate Quit menu item under OSX.
• Removed special case for WAIT values less than 7 so the UI is more responsive on short waits.
• Removed warning dialog on Linux when deleting the last character in the editor.
• FILLED colornumber checks colornumber is constrained to the allowed range.
• SETPENCOLOR and SETBACKGROUND cleanly handle invalid values.

Support for External Editors in wxWidget Builds

• wxWidgets builds ignore EDITOR env var to preserve default existing behavior
• If SETEDITOR is used to set an editor, wxWidgets builds will attempt to launch that command for EDIT
• Details available in the wiki

Command History Changes

• Preserved existing up arrow / down arrow functionality.
• Completely empty lines are no longer added to history.
• Working command is a bit more complex; if you begin to type and then:
  • Press down arrow - the command will clear as before; but, you can now up arrow to restore what you were working on.
  • Press up arrow - you will navigate history as before; but you can now down arrow back to the working command.
  • If you navigate history to the working command and update it, this will be remembered even if you navigate through other history.
  • If you navigate to a command in history, edit it, navigate away, then navigate back, it will have reverted to the actual history.
