> Version compatibility:
> This stack is released for the "last" release of MetaCard (2.4.3
> build 4). I
> can't debug and produce a version for all MC version but you are
> welcome to
> test and let me know how it works for you. Nothing is stopping you from
> getting 2.4.x which is a free upgrade at ftp://ftp.metacard.com
> As far as I can see it should run on all 2.4.x versions. Let me know
> otherwise.

> Precautions for all users:
> I recommend making a backup before installation OR
> uninstallation. There is
> a button for this in the options so dont forget to use it (not a default).
> But I have not needed one in the whole development of the script editor.
> I've tried to debug every scenario during un/installation with external
> stacks but I seriously recommend you install it into mctools (the default)
> stack - it just works better. If you upgrade MCTools.mc, just reinstall.
> Previous installations of the Snippets stack is not replaced. There is no
> upgrade engine for the snippets. Keep the 1.1.4 version just in case!
>
> Here's what you get:
>
> V 1.1.5 18/12/2002
> - Added controls filter in the Index Menu
> - Added Resizable Index Menu
> - Added missing colored keywords (item, lines)
> - Fixed not-really dynamic color choosing in preferences - sorry
> about that
> - Added xVersion Property to Script Editor Stack - still no
> checking in the
> installer
> - Fixed an incidious script that had auto-comment converted all # in the
> comment filters
> - Fixed a un/commenting script error - first line of script wouldn't be
> handled.
> - Fixed insidious "on mouseup" auto-script (of scriptless objects) with
> smarter version
> - Scrolling About and help Fields with real hyperlinks added.
> - Added collapsible hierarchy in the index and more exact location finder
>
> V 1.1.4 14/12/2002
> - Added primary autocompletion routines for handlers and control
> statements
> - Added About and help fields - they should update automatically from the
> web someday!

> - Fixed the Preferences stack not opening - inexplicable bug in the menu
> - Fixed opaque buttons in Menus (problem for OSX's Aqua GUI - thanks Karl)
> - Fixed positioning of line and size tracking fields
