February 26, 2008 - Mori 1.6.10 - Too soon for an iPhone SDK

This is an urgent bugfix release.

• Additional Italian localizations with thanks to Mario Pettenghi and Folletto Malefico.

• Fixed #2585 (and 2589) Invisible highlighting caused by new user defaults sub-system.

January 1, 2008 - Mori 1.6.8 - (U.S.) New Year's Day 2008

While there are less overall visible improvements to this version, it should be more stable.

• Rewrote user settings handling subsystem (to prevent wayward settings from affecting other operations).
• Improved notebook check and repair functionality to fix orphaned entries and entry data records.
• Fixed #2508 (and 2576) Stall when dropping items into Mori's source or entries lists.

November 22, 2007 - Mori 1.6.7 - (U.S.) Thanksgiving Day 2007

Hopefully, this update fixes the Leopard issues better than the last one.

• Fixed #2278 toolbar code yet again.
• Fixed Leopard empty window when "Enable check spelling" preference was set.
• Fixed non-working Software Update dialog.

November 20, 2007 - Mori 1.6.6

Hopefully, this update fixes all the issues caused by the Leopard compatibility scramble.

• Fixed #2278 wherein toolbar icons still were not appearing (redone).
• Fixed Leopard display freezes and crashes.
• Fixed empty window in earlier (1.6.4 + 1.6.5) bugfixes.
• Fixed missing Inspector toolbar item for main and note toolbars.

November 12, 2007 - Mori 1.6.5

Fast on the heels of the weekend's 1.6.4 release, this one hopefully does a better job with the toolbar. Does not tackle any other issue, particularly in regards to Leopard compatibility. It works by copying the user's toolbar settings as they were set with a previously created Mori document, in order to restore those settings to present and future sessions rather than blow them all away and let the user set them again for future sessions.

• Fixed #2278 wherein toolbar icons still were not appearing (redone).

November 10, 2007 - Mori 1.6.4 - Initial Leopard Bugfix

This release incorporates the initial workarounds for issues with Leopard and brings the early Oneill changes into the v1.6 branch, this especially includes the first of the international support: Spanish.

• Fixed bugs where drag copies or drag moves into Mori could fail.
• Internal checks before deletions.
• Fixed bug where creating aliases to unfuseable entries would leave cruft in the note database.
• Improved drop item highlighting per sample code contributed by Austin Sarner's.
• Localization fixes.
• Workaround for freeze in visual feedback (but not input) on Leopard.
• Sanity checks in handling of fused entries.
• Revamped version-checking when looking for updates.
• ¡Ahora, se habla español!

• Fixed #2278 wherein toolbar icons still were not appearing.
• Fixed #2280 which crashed when matches made on "a/b" formatted searches.
• Fixed #2307 wherein entries whose properties (e.g, labels, flags, etc.) were never set and entriees which were set and then reset to the default value (e.g., none, 0, unflagged, etc) would sort differently in the entries view.
• Changed internal version number per Dave Dribin's recommendation.
• Enabled extra-strict warnings and modified code until the warnings went away.

June 21, 2007 - Mori 1.6.2

NOTICE: It turns out I forgot to update the Info.plist, so the About Box (and the Finder) says "1.6.1" even though it's 1.6.2. The build number (91) is how you know you've gotten the correct version. It's now correct if you want to keep from getting confused in the future. My thanks to Federico Cavaglià for pointing this out!
