Jari,

Just a few thoughts.  You may have reasons not to have implemented these,
besides being too busy for bells and whistles over needed functionality.

There is no Close button.
A tabbed development page where you can have multiple documents open
simultaneously.  Would be helpful for copy/paste operations.

Subject: [JW Lua] What's new in beta 0.03

I was in a bit of a hurry when I released beta 0.03 yesterday, but here's
the list of what's new in beta 0.03:

* A tabbed user interface, with different "pages" for running scripts,
management and development.

* The Esc key will no longer close the modeless windows (the main window and
the Class Browser).

* A "manager", where scripts can be added to the explorer tree (and the
Finale menu, when that functionality becomes available). The manager has
2 group folder modes: manual or automatic (which can be tagged). One script
can be shared in multiple groups, based on the user's workflow.

* A dialog (accessed through the "Plug-in Def" button) that automatically
configures the plug-in script.

* An editor with syntax highlighting and folding added.

* FCMultiStaffInstrument(s) supported (works only on Finale 2012)

* Basic user input support through finenv.UserValueInput()

* BeatChartElement(s), FCMultiMeasureRest(s), FCMultiMeasureRestPrefs,
FCCustomStemMod, FCEntryAlterMod, FCCell are fully implemented.


Best regards,

Jari Williamsson
