FTLCtimelines X 0.9.5.6 and 0.9.5.6.01
FTLCtimelines X 0.9.5.6 and 0.9.5.6.01 were released over the past week. FTLC stands for “finite time lines and circlesâ€, and FTLCtimelines X is a Mac OS X program that allows you to generate and work with timelines. Version 0.9.5.6.01 fixes a bug where printing could not take place after version 0.9.5.6.0.
Version 0.9.5.6 was a major upgrade – among other things, the database engine was upgraded, it now requires Mac OS X (an older Classic version is still available), added control over axis display in timelines, and support for iCal importing added. For a full listing of changes in version 0.9.5.6, please see the Release Notes. Continue reading
