Subject: Patch for Scatha 0.2.7: Bug fixes and improved appearance

Author: Tord Romstad

Hi all,

I have fixed two really annoying bugs in Scatha's GUI, and made a
little visual improvement by displaying the current move in the
move list with bold-face blue letters.

The Scatha binary on my home page has not been updated. Instead,
I have prepared a tiny patch file (the download size is just 9 KB)
which is installed in the Scatha GUI from the "Load Patch File" menu
item. For further details, including a more detailed description of the
bugs and the improvements, visit my Scatha page and have a look
at the new "Patches" link (directly below Scatha 0.2.7 in the download list).

Opinions about the patching procedure would be very welcome.
I have tried to make this as simple and user-friendly as possible
while avoiding the need for huge downloads for every new version,
but I am not sure how well it works for the average user.

I apologise for the massive amount of Scatha spam over the last few
days, and I hope to reduce the volume from now on. I will not post
messages about every single bug fix or new feature I add, but instead
silently add new patch files to my Scatha page from time to time.
Those among you who want to stay up to date are adviced to have a
look at the patch area on my page regularly.

Major new versions and really cool new features will still be announced
here, of course.
