Version 0.69, 2006-11-15 - Bug Fix: Unicode files were often saved in ANSI format. Version 0.68, 2006-03-17 - Support for Aspell (http://aspell.net/win32/). - Fixed bugs: - Ispell interface now works on Windows 2000 and XP.

Version 0.66, 2004-04-23 - New command to comment out text blocks. - The TeXShell is now capable of inserting hard line breaks when typing. This eliminates the problems with word wrap and TeX line counting. To test out this feature edit linebreakat in the file texshell.ini. Version 0.65, 2003-09-28 - Fixed bugs: - Go To Line did not scroll the window content on some Windows systems. - Long font names could cause syntax highlighting to fail.

Version 0.62 Jul.2.2000 - Support for international character sets. This does not work with double byte character sets like japanese or korean. - Fixed bugs: - The TeXShell did not work on Windows 2000 when the background color was changed. - Placeholders were expanded only once in a line. Version 0.61 Dec.9.1999 - Bug fix: - User defined menu commands did not work in version 0.6. Version 0.6 Dec.1.1999 - This release was compiled with Delphi 5.
