At this moment:

QM now is compatible with Windows Vista (32-bit and 64-bit versions). However, some features currently don't work on Vista. Read about it here. Also you may want to read about creating exe files for Vista.

QM program files now are digitally signed. Software signing ensures software came from software publisher, and protects software from alteration after publication.

Updated winapiqm.txt reference file (WINAPI). Also, in the QM forum you can find and download another reference file that contains more declarations, as well as a program that converts C declarations to QM (STILL NOT).

Enhancements related to reference files: Not error to explicitly declare something that is implicitly declared using a reference file; Removed "optional" settings from Options (now everything from WINAPI is always available); Reduced memory usage; Can include other files; Can log extracted declarations.

Enhancements related to user-defined types: Anonymous types within types, Base type without member name.

Enhancements related to keyboard and mouse triggers: Can be used low level hooks (optionally), which make triggers more reliable and allow to use system hot-keys; A trigger key can be pressed repeatedly without releasing modifier keys.

For compatibility with Windows Vista and some programs, key and clipboard commands now use different synchronization methods than in previous versions. In most cases, these commands will work as well as previously, but some macros may require some corrections (wait, err). Also, after copy/paste commands, the clipboard contents now is restored immediately.

Pasting (outp and str.setsel) now works in console windows too.

New functions: interface IStringMap, RunConsole, variable _win64.

More options in: Dir.GetSize (can get folder size), str.findreplace (replace null char), mes (Vista shield icon), opt keymark, rset (delete key if empty), rget (some changes with ini files).

Several new dll functions exported by qm.exe.

These features are no longer supported in exe: wait x KF (wait for key-down and eat), share (shared memory). They can be used only in QM. In exe they would cost too much, especially on Windows Vista and 64-bit.

Now maximal text length is 4 MB for menus, toolbars and TS menus. For other items it remains 32 KB.

Other enhancements and bug fixes.
