Hi Notjohn,

You do realize any new features would not be backported to the old Sigil 0.8.x tree right? Given your stated preference for staying with Sigil 0.8.7, I wasn't sure if you understood that. The source trees have have diverged too much, and the programming paradigm of returning references to null, is now illegal in many newer compilers because it is technically undefined behaviour. Also I have said this many times but Sigil 0.8.7 has some serious bugs and that Sigil 0.8.6 is recommended if you want to stick to the 0.8.x series. The only real difference between Sigil 0.8.6 and Sigil 0.8.7 other than the developer names and links, is a change that actually breaks things. Thus the rec for Sigil 0.8.6 over Sigil 0.8.7.

Take care,

KevinH
