- We (at the institute) saw 7.1b7.
-
- The most obvoius thing to change is that WorldScript is included, and it
- is a great thing, although we didnt get it to run perfect (Well, beta...)
-
- The other things we found were:
-
- Font folder (no more 15min to open the System Document - well, once
- more...)
- Double Byte TrueType Fonts
- 3 new control panels (1 for the PowerBook - the long awaited!!!)
- Dictionary Manager
- Text Services Manager
- (ther latter two being of interest only to developers right now)
- improved drag-and-drop, even for new CPU-specific extensions (No more
- 7.1.0.2a)
- This is most of what I found, and what seems to be of interest to me.
