<h3>A Message from the HighWire Development Team</h3>
<hr>
<p><b><i>Welcome to the latest release of HighWire, version 0.3.4</i></b></p>
<p>Better late than never. It's been such a long time since the last
full release that I thought I would try to build a release even
if the changes are almost too subtle to notice.</p>
<p>The most obvious change is one of the simplest, a new window can
now be opened from the menu not just the keyboard. Less easy to
spot are the small changes in form text area editing features.
This is the main area I have been working on and it was the reason
why I began my small efforts on <em><strong>Highwire</strong></em>.
Shift with cursor left or cursor right now moves the cursor to
the start or end of the
line. Paste (Ctrl+ V) is no longer limited to 256 characters. This
doesn't sound like much but let me explain...</p>
<p>Despite almost three decades of development on a bewildering
variety of hardware, operating systems and languages I have spent
practically
no time using <em>C</em> or it's derivates. It's not a language
that I like. Also I have spent little time developing in <em><strong>GEM</strong></em> for
the <em><strong>Atari</strong></em>,
when I did it was mainly in <em>Pascal</em>, my weapon of choice.
As you might appreciate, taking on a large-ish <em>C</em> project
like <em><strong>Highwire</strong></em> was
quite daunting but with the lack of releases and my increasing
irritation with the editing features, I thought this was a suitably
simple area to start work on. Since I had amost no development
environment on my <em>Milan</em> I had to install quite a few things
before I could get <em><strong>Highwire</strong></em> to compile,
it's quite pleasing when it does.</p>
<p> My initial changes in 2008/9 were
limited to extending the size of
text that could be pasted from the clipboard and I made
a release available via my own website but I wanted to go further.
I received a suggestion to look at the <em><strong>QED</strong></em> code
for ideas and this lead me to utilise the <em><strong>NKCC</strong></em> key
handling routines by <em><strong>Harald Siegmund</strong></em> in <em><strong>CFLib</strong></em>.
This required some more extensive code changes but helped make
the code more readable and aided my
understanding of it's inner workings.</p>
<p>I have been saying &quot;I&quot; as though it has just been me
that has produced this release, far from it. I have received
a lot of help and advice
from several people on the <em><strong>Highwire</strong></em> mailing
list and the <em><strong>FreeMint</strong></em> mailing
list and I would like to thank them for their help and patience
with my ignorance of <em><strong>GCC</strong></em> and the
development environment.</p>
<p>A confession is needed. I also had a more subtle plan in mind.
I hoped that by starting some work and asking the innevitable questions
that this might bring a few people on board the project. I wasn't
expecting miracles but if I could do it then with a few more people
like me we could make steady progress. I figured that as long as
the project was alive people would take an interest. I apologise
for being sneaky, it was in a good cause.</p>
<p>For the future. I am going to continue working in the form handling
areas. I don't yet feel ready to tackle CSS, SSL or anything else
that requires knowledge in areas I don't have. However,
as I contine to look through the code I hope I can help others
with
my general
<em><strong>Highwire</strong></em> kowledge.</p>
<p><b><i>Welcome to the latest release of HighWire, version 0.3.2</i></b></p>

<p>Almost exactly five years ago, we released version 0.01 of HighWire. It
was rough, with no online access, no forms, no graphics and almost no user
interface. Sometimes that five years seems like a million years and sometimes it seems
like just yesterday. A lot of things have changed along the way in the world,
and in our lives, but HighWire like Atarians just keeps on moving along. While releases
this year were fewer than we planned, development did not end. Consequently there are a
lot of good new treats awaiting you in this release. So we hope you enjoy this our Fifth Christmas release.
</p>
<p>So what is <i>New</i> in this release?</p>
<p>User requests were not ignored and a lot of requested items were added in
this release. Among these were an built-in Font Setup dialog that is compatible with
the Font Protocol (Thing Desktop, FontSel are a couple). So now you can change your
HighWire fonts with a simple Drag &amp; Drop. Speaking of Drag &amp; Drop, the AVSERVER code
was rewritten and as a bonus the Drag &amp; Drop protocol was implemented. AV-Global window
cycling is also now available and configurable in the highwire.cfg file.
</p>
<p>We have also added several new key combinations for browser windows in HighWire. Shift-Control-N
now opens a completely empty browser window (with Open button) and Control-N has been modified
to open a new browser window the the default startup page. Hold Shift-Alt while clicking on a link,
and it will open in a new window and be sent to the bottom. While on the subject of windows, I'll
mention that the progress bar for windows while processing has been improved and the much requested
starting window position is now saved in the highwire.cfg file.
</p>
<p>A few of the other highlights, the request for Shift-Tab to navigate backwards in Forms, which has been implemented
to a limited extent, it can be problematic on some complex forms. The idle time schedule timer was
fixed and background CPU usage has been greatly reduced. Finally a lot of the rest of the coding was
on the CSS support, from positioning, specificity, border handling and implementation of CSS
styles on more tags.
</p>
<p>We hope you will find the end result to be a pleasing upgrade.
</p>
<p><EM>Other main changes and additions in this versions:</EM>
