I guess the two biggest new things in this release are incremental parsing (so you can paste in a whole bunch of text and not overload the parser) and jbofi'e-style glossing. But it's much prettier than jbofi'e. And there's a bunch of smaller things, too. Unfortunately, this is (in all probability) a Windows-only release. I've rewritten all the javascript code in C#, which uses some library dependencies (the embedded web browser) that are quite unlikely to work with Mono unless I work on it. If it's possible at all, 2.0.1 should support Mono, and thus Linux and OSX. On the other hand, the parser itself probably works fine on Linux. I've made a command line interface for it that could be quite handy. One interesting feature it offers is the ability to format a parse tree using an XML file to specify exactly how to output the tree. It's not infinitely flexible, but it might let you output to *some* interesting formats without requiring you to use a script. I might add direct support for XSL in the future, depending on how easy it is, but in the meantime if you want a customer output and you don't know how to program, you could try outputting in an XML format and using an XSL transform to get to your desired end format. Unfortunately, the rewrite in C# means that Lojgloss can no longer be configured as a web application (though the parser itself could be configured as a web service). I plan on eventually fixing this by cross-compiling my C# to javascript, but for the immediate future this is a download-run application. I have lots of new features planned, which are listed on the page, so check it out if you're interested. Chris Capel -- "What is it like to be a bat? What is it like to bat a bee?
