RKWard 0.4.1: bugfixes, and code completion

Monday, 6 November 2006 Tfry

A new version of RKWard is available for download. Most importantly, a good number of bugs has been fixed, and RKWard gains code completion and function argument hinting features in console and script editor. The complete list of changes:

  • Bugfixes:
    • fix bug in beta probabilities plugin
    • fix (some?) compilation problems with KDE 3.2
    • fix to plugin input lines sizing, and visibility of scrollbars
    • prevent infinite recursion when parsing structure of environments
    • fix for compilation on 64bit architectures
    • don't crash when closing a detached window
    • fixed: an empty table created before the object list was updated (esp. at startup) would be thought to have been removed in the workspace
    • fixed: back / forward buttons would sometimes remain after closing a help window
    • fix some focus problems
    • remove misleading "About KDE" dialog, and replace report Bug dialog with correct information
  • New features and improvements:
    • allow specification of title/subtitle in plot options plugin (currently used by boxplot, and histogram)
    • when packages have been newly installed, show them in the load / unload packages tab immediately
    • on startup, show window maximized if no size stored (i.e. very first startup)
    • function argument hinting in the console and script editor
    • as you type completion of R symbol names in the script editor
    • tab completion of R symbol names in the console
    • added R function rk.edit (x) to open object x for editing in rkward
    • object data changed in the console (or by other means) is updated to the editor automatically, if the object is opened for editing
    • provide close buttons in tab bar

As usual, we're interested in your feedback on the mailing list.
