• Updates from Sine Nomine Software

    From Matthew Phillips@21:1/5 to All on Sun Jan 31 21:23:12 2021
    Three brief announcements from Sine Nomine Software:

    1. New mailing list
    A new e-mail discussion list, covering all our products, has been set up to replace the Impact list that was hosted by Yahoo. The new list is hosted by Riscository and you can find the link to join on the Riscository mailing
    lists page:

    2. New version of DrawPrint
    DrawPrint allows you greater control over printing Draw files, including
    a preview window, cropping, and splitting them over several pages. The latest version has several enhancements:

    * Cut marks may be printed in the margin
    * Splitting the content over the last two sheets can be done more evenly
    * Typing numbers with decimal places has been made easier

    You can download DrawPrint from our website at https:/sinenomine.co.uk/software/drawprnt.zip

    3. Updated map data for RiscOSM
    Fresh Open Street Map data for many countries, converted in November and December, is now available from the web site for use with RiscOSM, the award-winning vector map application for RISC OS.

    --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05
    * Origin: fsxNet Usenet Gateway (21:1/5)
  • From Matthew Phillips@21:1/5 to All on Mon May 10 22:07:14 2021
    This weekend Sine Nomine Software has released some further updates to software, first announced at the Wakefield Show.

    ----

    Impact 3.60 relational database and ImpEmail 1.20 email merge

    A new display of field definitions for databases is the main new feature, but there are several other improvements, including better interpretation of
    dates when just two digits are entered for the year. ImpEmail gains Bcc, Reply-To and Sender fields, and the editor is improved so that
    triple-clicking selects an entire merge command.

    This is a free upgrade for existing users available from the Impact web pages https://sinenomine.co.uk/software/impact/

    ----

    RiscOSM 2.02 vector mapping software

    Version 2.00 of RiscOSM was released a fortnight ago, and this is the second traditional post-show bug fix release. Version 2.00 introduced a new map data format and changes which speed up map loading and rendering, particularly for small-scale maps. It is a chargeable update available from the RiscOSM web pages:
    https://sinenomine.co.uk/software/riscosm/

    Version 2.02 adds

    * two more small speed enhancements
    * corrections to interpretation of normal/daylight-saving time for tracks
    * bug fixes, including a crash when saving pins as KML, and the inclusion of
    waypoints when saving as a Draw file.

    ----

    Recce 1.05

    Recce is a helper application for RiscOSM which allows photos and other data
    to be fetched from web-based sources. Version 1.05 is a small update to version 1.04 which was released the day of the Wakefield Show and which adds weather forecasts to the data accessible from RiscOSM. Version 1.04 is a chargeable update. See the RiscOSM upgrade page for ordering details.

    Important note about CPUClock

    We have had several reports of strange errors in RiscOSM over the past couple of months. These have been tracked down to a faulty version of CPUClock which was corrupting the floating point environment. If you have CPUClock 2.08, please upgrade to CPUClock 2.09. Many thanks to Chris Johnson for tracking
    down this issue quickly. http://www.chrisjohnson.plus.com/software/cpuclock.html

    SuperDoku 1.32

    A new version of SuperDoku, the puzzle generator and solver, has received a small update: literally adding an equals sign to one line of the source code. This corrects a bug which meant the software was unable to solve the Hard Futoshiki puzzle in the 23 April Guardian Weekly. Other puzzles may have been affected too. Actually the hints have been improved as well, so it was a bit more than a single equals sign. See our general software page for the
    download.
