[ANN] Release 0.70.1 of Task Coach

Hi,

I'm happy to announce release 0.70.1 of Task Coach. This release
optionally brings back the tabbed user interface that was removed in the
previous release and fixes a few bugs.

Bugs fixed:

* The search control in the toolbar did not maintain state correctly for
different viewers. Task Coach viewers now each have their own toolbar
with search control.
* Marking tasks completed or changing their priority would change the
selection.
* On Max OS X, put preferences menu item in the TaskCoach menu instead of the
Edit menu to conform with Mac OS X standards.
* Focus issues: On Mac OS X, text couldn't be edited while the timer was
running. On Windows, notifications from other programs overlapping with the
main window would take away focus from dialogs.
* Prevent crash under Windows XP when dropping e-mail from Thunderbird if the
APPDATA environment variable is not defined.
* ImportError: No module named thirdparty.ElementTree. This exception would
happen when using a source distribution of Task Coach or a package (rpm, deb)
for Linux *and* when the default version of Python on the system is Python 2.4.
Task Coach tried to import a module from the wrong package.
* On Linux, when using a dark theme, use appropriate background colors for the
category viewer and the text color buttons in the preferences dialog.
* Remember whether the main window was maximized and if so, maximize the main
window when starting the next time.
* Correctly sort tasks on startup when sort column is 'Overall categories'.
* Correctly redraw toolbar when it is 'damaged' by other windows.

TaskCoach now takes about a minute to shutdown on my Windows XP SP3.
Anyone else got this problem since the update?

I installed the latest release on my work laptop which runs Windows XP
SP3 and has an encrypted harddisk, which makes it rather slow, but
Task Coach seems to be running at the same speed as before. I didn't
see any other responses to your message, so I guess it is not a global
issue. Are you saving the file on a local disk or on a network drive?

Cheers, Frank

Local HD, just like always.

I just opened an older, smaller file than my usual work file, and TC 
closes down normally. Another file (121 kb) sends TC almost to sleep 
when shutting down, whitening the screen for a while.

So the file size seems to be the problem. (My present file is 88 kb.)

Could you send me the file (if the contents are not too
private/sensitive) so I can test?

Thanks, Frank
