Description
This section contains a list of changes to OMhelp during 2007 (in reverse order by date). Its purpose is to assist you in learning about changes between versions.

12-13
The codei and icode commands were added. These commands switch pre-formatted text between code and italic font. See the remark at the end of the command.

The latex Calligraphic font \cal was added. This turned up another problem in Firefox ; see the mathvariant bug entry.

Remove some objects that executables that were mistakenly part of the distribution copy of omh/getstarted. (This caused the make command to fail on other systems because they were not built from source.)

11-03
If a navigate command was used in the root section the corresponding setting did not get transferred to the table of contents section. This has been fixed.

10-20
The script file for batching the get_started examples RunAll was no longer working. Change it to a bash script called run_all.sh (which now works).

The name used for the directory where the user copies the get_started examples was changed from the omh directory to the test directory (to avoid confusion with the omh directory in the OMhelp distribution).

All of the section names and file names in get_started were changed from mixed case to lower case.

Due to a problem with using Cvs with Cygwin, it is not possible to change just change the case of a file name. For this reason, the examples Factorial.c and Factorial.m have been replaced by near_equal_c and near_equal_f .

10-18
The href command was improved to detect when the linkingtext was empty and stop with a fatal error message.

09-14
The view_factorial.m example used the wspace command which has been deprecated. It was changed to use the newlinech command which works better. In addition, a link in start_embed to view factorial.m was mistakenly to view_factorial.c. This has been fixed.

08-14
The favicon option was not listed when OMhelp printed its usage message (in response to an improper command line). This has been fixed.

07-21
The Firefox back button bug has been removed (it seems to be fixed). The Firefox copy and paste bug has been added.

04-06
A common mistake is to include the same file in two different places and thereby multiple definitions for the same cross reference destination. The error message for this case has been improved to suggest that perhaps the same file has been included twice.

03-25
There was a problem with the configure script whereby there was a space at the end of the name of the file that it was checking src/UniformWhiteSpace.c. This has been fixed.

03-13
Changes the _search dialog so that it selects the current entry when you hit return (or select the button).

01-28
The navigate command default value was changed so that Up is grouped with Across.
