RGP Lua 0.56 is now available for download. It includes the following
enhancements and bug fixes.

1. RGP Lua now allows Lua scripts to run modeless dialog windows. The
documentation has extensive information about several additional functions
implemented to facilitate them. There is a "Hello World" example included
in the (new) documentation page for FCCustomLuaWindow:ShowModeless.
2. There is now a class browser for RGP Lua implemented entirely in Lua.
This provides a much more complex example of a modeless dialog, though it
doesn't modify the Finale document. (Stay tuned for examples of that.)
3. Fixed a macOS bug that caused sudden crashes of Finale when running the
RGP Lua configuration window.
4. Improved keyboard navigation on macOS versions of FCCustomWindow and
FCCustomLuaWindow.
5. Added Lua-support for SetTimer/StopTimer. They now work both for modal
and modeless on both macOS and Windows. (However, to set a timer the dialog
has to be initialized, so it is really only practical with
FCCustomLuaWindow that provides an InitWindow callback. This could
potentially be enhanced so that FCCustomWindow could use it as well, if
there is a need.)
