CHANGES SINCE PREVIOUS VERSION
==============================

FIXED BUGS:

  * Fixed ticket #13 (emacs bindings mixed with mac-pc bindings)

  * Fixed bugs with incremental search:
     . F3, find a match, insert a line before the match, F3 --> wrong
       highlighting
     . The searched string could keep the red color even if there was
       a match

  * Fixed: only Scilab scheme colorized buffers shall be executed on
    Load all into Scilab

  * Fixed: new Scipad version check failed due to a change in the
    content of the queried SourceForge page


WHAT IS SCIPAD ?
================

Scipad is a powerful editor and graphical debugger for programs 
written in Scilab language. It is a mature and highly configurable 
programmer's editor, including features like syntax colorization, 
regexp search/replace, parentheses matching, logical/physical line 
numbering, peer windows, line and block text editing, and much more. 
Scipad can be used along with Scicoslab or Scilab, but even as a 
standalone text editor. Used as internal Sci(cos)lab editor, it 
interacts tightly with the interpreter, allowing

  - Scilab code execution control
  - conditional breakpointing
  - variable retrieval and tooltip display
  - Scilab help lookup
  - access to source code of Scilab library function
  - control of Scilab facilities for Matlab code and creation of
    help documents
  - and much more

Scipad also includes basic Modelica and XML syntax colorization; it is 
currently localized in 13 languages and further localizations can 
easily be added. Scipad is entirely written in Tcl/Tk and Scilab 
language. It has been tested and developed under various versions of 
Windows and Linux.
