- Hi!
-
- A little bugfixed muimaster.library 3.2 has been uploaded to aminet
- (ftp.germany.aminet.org). NOTE WELL: the file was uploaded right now
- (sat, 09:00:00), so it might not have appeared the time you read this
- message. I know I shouldnt announce it that early, but I'm away for a
- few days now and cannot announce it later.

- mui32fix.readme:
-
- Short: muimaster.library V13.687, little bugfix update
- Type: dev/gui
- Author: stuntz@informatik.tu-muenchen.de
- Uploader: stuntz@informatik.tu-muenchen.de
- Version: 3.2
-
- Unfortunately, the MUI 3.2 release (muimaster.library V13.686)
- introduced a bad bug in the ARexx interface that could make programs
- crash. Thats why this little fix is released. Simply copy it over your
- old mui:libs/muimaster.library.
-
- BTW, usually, MUI 3.2 should read old MUI 3.1 configuration files fine.
- However, several people reported some strange problems. If you feel
- something is wrong with your setup, please try MUI 3.2 again after
- deleting envarc:mui completely.
-
- Furthermore, since MUI 3.2, you can no longer adjust MUIs halfshine,
- halfshadow and mark pen with PSI. Instead, MUI automatically allocates
- them to something reasonable or uses MagicWB pens if you have MagicWB
- installed (env:MagicWB must contain the string "2.0" or better for this
- to work). Future versions of MUI will offer a different approach.
-
- If you dont seem to get things working at all ("Failed to create
- application..."), make sure to wipe out every trace of old MUIs on your
- system ("sys:libs/mui*", "sys:classes/mui*", etc.).
-
- Sorry again for the buggy V13.686. I dont like to release these kinds
- of fixes, but crashing software is really not a good idea. :)
-
- Have fun, Stefan.
