5 Nov. 2003

Version 0.999 is available ! Download it below. All information, including glyphs drawing is processed by a database, so adding new glyph is much simpler. Other features : very simple installation for windows, graphical cut and paste under windows, improved rendering algorithm, 79 texts in the database (a lot of them are Late Egyptian texts). Windows Users : download tksesh0999.exe. Unix Users : download the source code.

August 2003

BUG fix for tkseshAlpha5 : download the file tksesh.dll, and copy it in the directory tcllib\LIBS. The graphical cut and paste is now in metafile format, not enhanced metafile, and works much better.

June 2002

ALPHA VERSION FOR WINDOWS with graphical cut and paste : the file tkseshAlpha5a.exe contains a development version for windows. The database functionalities are not working for this one, so you shouldn't use it to replace your current tksesh version. But the nice point is that it's able to copy text to the clipboard in emf (enhanced metafile) format. So Window users can use tksesh to include hieroglyphic texts in standard text editing system. Tcl is now included in the tksesh distribution, so you have only one file to download.

January 2002

*ALPHA DEVELOPMENT VERSION* I have decided to provide the current development version. It's a development version, so it can be buggy, you need to understand how to install it, and so on. On the other hand, the font editor is MUCH better, and you can save metafile pictures of the text which can be included in word.

October 1999

Version 0.9c. New install package for Win95. Small bug fixes. Ounamon and Two brothers texts added

6 Jan 1999

9 Dec 1998

version B 0.5 released. fonts and ligature definition now made through TCL, hence next version should allow the user to add new codes. The font editor looks like something usable now. try it ! (wish8.0 fonteed.tcl in tcllib directory). It uses the nice scoop object oriented extension. The window version is not made yet.

22 Nov 1998

version B 0.4 released. Nicer selection handling under windows, slight modifications in the font system.
