OPUS Linux version

The package/archive files listed here are to be used for installing an x86 (32bit) Linux build of OPUS on sufficiently compatible Linux distributions (installation on 64bit distributions may be possible, depending on amount of support, and possibly even preferrable).

Subsequent lines list md5sum result (for download verification), package filename, details.

ChangeLog:

entirely new fully cross-platform generic build system (CMake / CPack), much improved packaging - feedback would be useful
context-sensitive help now corrected to properly support Linux chm viewers
mechanism for automatic backslash path correction in affected OPUS parameters
improved support of pseudo MDI (currently active) / real MDI (not enabled) window handling
Beginnings of printing support
_Working_ support for many other codepages:
- Single-Byte codepages (/LANGUAGE=RUSSIAN, Turkish, ...)
- Multi-Byte codepages (Simplified Chinese, ...) now also supported (not directly supported due to toolkit limitation - may work on getting this fixed -, but due to conversion to proper UTF-8 working in many cases
File Save As format selection now working correctly
large encoding handling rework, now able to make use of proper system-provided Unicode-based wx package
many misc. fixes / optimizations, e.g.:
major implementation parts completely reworked (messaging, window handling, graphics)
Thread creation fixes, locking granularity improvements
many thread locking corrections where needed, for non-primary-thread GUI output (strongly improved correctness/precision)
try to contain damage inflicted upon by still pervasive copy-on-write string implementations in current base architecture toolkits
device contexts, handle improvements
