Colin has released version 3.300 of PedSpecs. You can download the 582kb installer program (SetupPS3300.exe)

Of this (3.300) release Colin says:

One issue in PedSpecs has been the difficulty of navigating the large Relationships diagram that shows how the various picture scripts fit together. This update introduces a zoom facility that allows you to choose several smaller scales for this display, so that more of the whole diagram may been seen in the available window space.

This update also corrects an issue with unexpected characters in picture scripts, so that they no longer cause program failure.

PUG will be at The FH Event.

Do call in to meet some fellow members.

Committee members and Murray will be on hand through the day.

Colin has updated both PedSpecs and GEDutils to resolve some issues for Vista users. If you don’t use Vista, you don’t need to update these utilities. Details on the Utility Programs page.

At the AGM it was agreed that we should take up the offer from British-Genealogy of a free (private) forum for PUG members. Some PUG members may find a forum more convenient than the PUG-L email list but please note that the forum will only really work if there are members answering questions and well as members asking questions. Neither Murray nor Colin are under any obligation to participate in the forum.
