The TCOBrowser development team (yours truly) is pleased to announce
that a new release is available at <http://tcobrowser.sf.net/>. This
release has a new version of the TeX Catalogue, fresh from CVS as of
27 June 2005, and has some new features as well.
NOTE: I forgot to mention in the release notes that the "Authors"
table column won't show up unless you delete your preferences file,
at ~/Library/Preferences/net.sourceforge.tcobrowser.plist. Sorry for
the inconvenience. Also, this version will be slow to launch: if
you want it to launch faster, you can disable the local documentation
searching in Preferences, at the expense of some functionality.
Please file bug reports at <http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?
group_id=111837&atid=660553>, and if you see something on my To Do
list at <http://tcobrowser.sf.net/todo.html> that you'd like to
volunteer for, let me know! Feature requests are welcome also, but I
hardly have time to update the To Do list.
Complete release notes follow:
