Macro Scheduler 11 Progress Update

Filed under: Announcements,General — Marcus Tettmar @ 12:46 pm

Well we’ve been busy since my last post on code folding. The main changes include:

* A completely overhauled script editor with even better code folding and bookmark support and improved syntax highlighting. The advanced editor and macro properties windows have been combined into one to make things much simpler and give easy access to things like the custom dialog designer and the debugger.

Macro Scheduler 11 Editor

* Macro Scheduler 11 has full Unicode support. Finally use any language characters in your scripts, detect Unicode text and output Unicode text.

* Competely overhauled FTP functions with added TLS/SSL support and support for more flavours of FTP server.

* Added SSL support to HTTPRequest

* With v11 you can compile macros in “console app” mode and write to STDOUT

* We’ve added the ability to embed any kind of file in a script, and export it at runtime.

* And more.

We’re just starting the initial stages of closed beta testing. Hopefully if all goes well we’ll be able to open the beta up in a month or so. In the mean time I’d be interested to hear from anyone with a need for TLS/SSL FTP support. If you have a TLS/SSL enabled FTP server and would like to do some testing please let me know.
