  • Version 2.0.0, May 22nd 2004
    • New Features:
    • Initial release of gjots2 for Python/GTK-2
  • Version 0.9, Mar 15th 2003
    • New Features:
    • Bugs fixed:
    • Bug fix: Closing the window did not shut down the app. with the result that subsequent invocations of gjots would offer a READ-ONLY session.
    • Known bugs (fixes or ideas appreciated):
    • When gjots(1) starts up, the tree display is sometimes garbled. It can be cleared by closing and re-opened the root, but why does it happen?
  • Version 0.8, Dec 28th 2002
    • New Features:
    • Read-only flag (-r) and checkbox (Files→Readonly) added
    • Simple write-locking added - enforces single writer and permits multiple readers. Locking for file “filename” is via a file called “.#filename” in the same directory; it contains the pid of the current write-locking process. The first gjots process to open the file (without the -r flag) gets to be the unique writer. Subsequent gjots processes opening the same file are offered the option of “Try Again” (in case the original writer is finished) or “Read only”. If a writer is abnormally terminated leaving a file locked, this is detected and defeated by the next gjots process to open the file (without the -r flag).
