ABOUT REV 0148 - 19 August 2008

* RELEASES SINCE 0135 CONTAIN MANY SIGNIFICANT CHANGES, PLEASE READ *
*  THE NOTES IN THIS FILE FOR ANY RELEASE THAT YOU'VE NOT YET USED. *

This release contains fixes for compatability with the GLGraphics
library and documentation about the Tools menu.

With any luck, this will be the last release for at least a week.

[ changes ]

+ Some additions have been made to the internal API to support the
 GLGraphics library, which is incompatible with the last few releases.
 You'll still need to download a new version of the library that's
 compatible with this release (0148) of Processing.

+ Cleaned up internal API for proper interfaces with user-contributed
 items for the Tools menu.

+ A "tools" folder has been added, which includes a howto.txt file that
 explains how to build your own tools. Note that like libraries,
 contributed tools should be stored in the sketchbook. (See the
 howto.txt files in "libraries" and "tools" for more information.)

+ An example Tool with source and a build script is included. (However
 it's not compiled by default, so you won't see it in the menu.)
 Future releases may put all items from the Tools menu into the
 default "tools" folder with source (just like the libraries).

[ known problems ]

+ Slow response on file/sketchbook/examples menus on OS X 10.5.
 This is an Apple bug in Java 1.5 and 1.6 on Mac OS X 10.5
 (but not 10.4) causing these menus to be extremely slow.
 Workarounds described in the bug report:
 http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=786
 Please file a bug report with Apple if you want this fixed!

+ In the current Windows release, Processing may not be able to find
 the JDK even if you have one installed. If this happens on your machine,
 copy the contents of your JDK installation to a new folder titled "java"
 inside the Processing folder. This fill be fixed in a future release.
