Point being, I was planning to release 0.1.3 before going on this trip. And I was toiling away on making View syncing happen, and it worked... finally. After a week of utter torture, it works. Just a few hours ago, it was done.

So I pushed all remaining issues planned for 0.1.3 to 0.1.4 so you could all benefit from this shiny new syncing and the loads of bugfixes and features implemented since the last release. Just look at the changelog! It's pretty full, isn't it?

And so just a few minutes ago I compiled the Windows version. Works great. Linux version? Awesomeness squared. But when it came to building the Mac version... well the build went great. But a massive problem appeared: the Code View isn't repainted properly when switching from Book View. Without giving you screenshots, believe me, that's very bad. It appears to be a consequence of the new sync mechanism. It works great on Win and Lin, but the Mac flakes out.

So the release got cancelled. You'll have to wait 'till I get back and sit down to fix it. I won't be able to work on Sigil during my vacation, and I won't even have Internet access so that's that.

And I skipped over so many things I needed to do today before leaving, all just so I could get this release out of the door. Alas, it was not meant to be.

Life. Amazing, innit?
Have a good holiday, don't worry about the release, enjoy yourself, you deserve it for giving us this great piece of software
