Dear all users

We have released next experimental version for testing, which you may find from the page: Http://www.epidata.dk/testing.php

Many issues have been fixed since the latest public test in early december. A complete list is found at the bottom.

In particular we have fixed and quality assured the data integrity command: check data, check key, check relate

But also many other issues, e.g. colour control. These lines will turn output and command line into yellow on black background.

set "COMMANDLINE BG COLOUR"   := "#000000"; set "COMMANDLINE FONT COLOUR" := "#FFF000"; set "OUTPUT BG COLOUR"        := "#000000"; set "OUTPUT FONT COLOUR"      := "#FFF000";

Many other aspects have been fixed, e.g. search and replace in editor in windows.

Next in line is the implementation of tables command and a few more issues in relation to data-management, which will then be announced as a pre-public version.

Please do some testing in particular of saving files after changes to variables and structures, followed by entry in EntryClient and report to the list of your experiences.

Best wishes for the coming end of year festivitas and a merry christmas for those who celebrate the christmas traditions.
