You can choose the "choose game button" and when in the game event page mark it as favorite, then press favorite settings and define an individual path.

Bet 0.71 coming in a few minutes

Not perfect but better, downloads might work now...
Now I gotta go out.

I was planning on making a set-up wizard to guide you through the various settings.
Se Ya

Maybe add a button to scan for other players, then dialog box for username and password that gets forgotten directly after the scan?

HTML links in the PBW status box has been added, will be in next Version.

one question can any one use this program to access another players PBW games?

I have to say great job .

Also that I have crashed it many times now.

I love how it access PBW - great option.

We'll it is a ROUGH beta afterall

Does it hang when it crashes or does it give any warning?
Is it Version 0,7 or did you download the all new 0.71? (It gives the same Version in-game, I didn't bother to change it as I guess only two people downloaded v0.7 before I took it down.)

I'll make a set-up wizard that explains the different settings further on.

I was thinking of making a "simple or advanced" checkbox on the first page, to hide some options.
But i guess I won't, why make things simple when you can make them so wonderfully complicated??

We'll it's actually the bastard son of the History event editor.
I've even used the "History event editor" name once in it I saw now.
Must change that.
So it's aiming to be everything, to beat it's father the history event editor

Will release minor bugfixes along to 0.8,
0.72 will be up before I go to work.

Perhaps a bit fewer crashes 0.72:

http://ruatha.homelinux.org/companion072.zip

All crash reports and other bug reports are welcome, I'm aware that they exist

BTW, when updating the Versions, just unpack and owerwrite previous files, any settings you've made will remain.

Will change the Favorites page so that you can edit directly in the boxes instead of pressing change and clear, like in PBW settings.

If you hear the Audio Alert, it's Mrs Ruatha speaking (Or actually, we have lived in sin for 12 years but are getting hitched in three weeks!)

Must do: Alert if logging in to PBW fails, now it just shows 0 games
Bug: It says intenal browser busy, too often!
Bug: Readme file button doesn't work
Bug: Comboboxes first line is blank after changing.

I'm using IMAP server for incoming mails rather than POP3. Is it possible to add imap support in future Versions?
