ltjBPM Developer NoteLeopard issues? - Version: 1.2, 11/27/2007 01:09PM PST

I received a letter today indicating there may be a compatibility problem with Leopard. If that proves true, I should be able to turn around an updated version this week. Since the Cocoa-Java bridge is now deprecated, any new version will be Obj-C, Intel native, etc. And we may bid adieu to the brushed metal interface.

In any case, thanks in advance for your patience.

SO easy to use! Between the . key and the ; key and the ' key and the return key, I never have to lift my hand! I LOVE it!

I wonder how the lefties fare?

The credit for this program's continued compatibility is due more to Apple than to myself. All I did was choose Cocoa Java and Applescript, both of which just take advantage of fast, stable underlying code regardless (so far) of the OS version (or these days, underlying hardware). I wonder if Cocoa Java apps qualify for "Universal Binary" status... :)

Look for a new version in the next couple of months (whenever I get a new machine and bother to move the project to XCode) with a lower-profile UI and some new features (hopefully including the fine suggestion from 'quite').

Thanks again for your feedback-
