Future developments


There's going to be a final version 1.0 very soon. This version 1.0 will be a polished version of the version you're looking at now. I won't add significant new features to it nor do I expect many bugreports anymore. Anansi has been used and tested since february/ march 1996 and serious bugs have been very rare.

A version 1.1 is as good as ready, but won't be released before I'm sure 1.0 is as stable as it can get. Version 1.1 will very likely have both a Frames Assistant and a Stylesheet Assistant, image previewing and perhaps some other improvements.

A version 2.0 is already underway too and will add wysiwyg features.

I rearrange the priorities for new features very often. Here's my latest list for Anansi 2.0:

  1. URL checker that will make an inventory of links that time out, don't exist anymore or have moved.
  2. Wysiwyg editing for tables.
  3. Integrated browser that will enable general wysiwyg editing.
  4. Document outline giving an overview of the objects in a document: links, anchors, frames, images, tables.
