NEW VERSION!!!

[xstylus]

In an attempt to modernize Phoenix and bring it up to date, I've taken it upon myself to attempt to fix a few bugs in Phoenix's code.

The source code was originally written under a very old version of REALBasic and the first order of business is getting it up to speed for modern compilers. That's been an interesting endeavor, but here's my

Hey, Awesome.

I started writing Phoenix in Realbasic 3, when I was just learning how to program. So the program is sort of held together by duct tape and is programmed very poorly,. using outdated code for a lot of it. You're right though, I do need to get off my duff and try to updte Phoenix. It's been a bit too long since it's last update.

If it's alright with you, I'd like to post this on the Phoenix homepage.

You need no permission from me. Go right ahead. :)

I didn't feel right calling it 1.9.7 since I felt official version changes should only come from its author, but if you want to call it 1.9.6a or 1.9.7, whichever. :)

The next thing you might want to tackle is figuring what it'll take to get it to compile in REALBasic 2008 so that others can join in if they so wish. Hunting down an old version of RB was a pain. ^^;;;

Cool.

I need to get a copy of RB 2008 at some point. But that is definitely on my list, there were a number of feature requests that I need an updated version of RB to implement, so it's something I would want and need to do either way. It's actually fairly cheap, so perhaps I could do it in the next month or so.

Does this version work with PowerMacs, or Intel macs only? I have PowerMac running 10.3.9.
