Hi!
This sounds very interesting, and I would very much like to try the new
version for linux as soon as it is available.
Meanwhile, I do have a suggestion for development. If there would be a way to
see, in the document, which parts are coded, that would be nice. I tend to
stumble over the same section again and again, and wonder if I alreday did
code it or not, and need to look through the code window to check it. (or is
there a way to do this already?).
Regards,
Magnus Larsson
(will return with more linux reports soon)
