- Bug in program registration web service fixed.

This bug was reported as issue # 3353480 in the CodeSnip bug tracker. The program registration web service was refusing to register CodeSnip programs on operating systems whose descriptions were longer than 80 characters. This restriction has been removed from the web service. Affected versions of CodeSnip should now work. There is no need to update the program.05 July 2011

Release 3.8.11 of CodeSnip fixes a display problem in the About and Compiler Error dialog boxes that manifests itself if you have updated to Internet Explorer 9.

- CodeSnip 3.8.10 released
-
This new release of CodeSnip is quite a minor user interface update. I've reverted the behaviour of checked list box and tree view controls so that clicking the item text no longer toggles the check box state. This non-standard behaviour was making the controls harder to use rather than easier! Also added a FAQs topic to help file that links to the Codesnip FAQ Wiki.20 May 2011
