List,

I have released version 2.5.0 of the software called "Linguistic Tree
Constructor" (LTC).

LTC is a tool for drawing linguistic syntax- and discourse-trees in a
point-and-click fashion.


LTC can be downloaded from the homepage:

http://ltc.sourceforge.net/download.html


You can also download, from the same site, two Greek texts to go with LTC, 
namely James Tauber's MorphGNT and my own Tischendorf 8th text.


Version 2.5.0 is a feature-enhancement release.  The following improvements
over 2.0.0 were made:

- User-definable node-levels are now supported.  That means, you are
  not constrained to the pre-defined "Phrase", "Clause",
  "ClauseCluster", etc., but can define your own levels.

- Most of the user-interface is now configurable, and will remain the
  same next time you open LTC.

- You can configure the colors used for nearly every aspect of the
  display.  Also, the colors will remain the same next time you open
  the program.

- The keyboard shortcuts (accelerators) now work as advertised on
  Windows.  (This is a bugfix.)

- You can now dump a file to Emdros MQL.  See http://emdros.org for
  more information on what Emdros is and can do for you.

- Some new constraints on labels and syntax node names are now
  enforced.  Old labels are silently converted to the new format.  If
  you wish to define your own labels, please read the pertinent
  sections of the User's Guide first.

- The Windows installer now installs for "All Users" rather than the
  "Current User".

- The User's Guide was given an overhaul.  Please read it again if you
  have read it before, especially the new sections on the new kinds of
  arbitrarily definable nodes.


Mac OS X Universal binaries are now provided.


Enjoy!
