Stayed In

[Saturday 19th May]
Chie went out to see some friends of hers (who she knew from back when she used to work in Maidenhead) in the afternoon, but I opted to stay in, and in fact didn't leave the flat all day. I spent the day working on Cheese. Most of the time went into adding Unicode support, which means it will be able to handle different languages. So if you want to write Korean comments for your images, then that ought to be no problem. It also means I can now release localised versions of the interface - I'm quite keen to have a version of the program in Japanese, although my first attempt is a little bit embarassing. I guess I'll ask Chie for a bit of help here.

Hi John. Will Cheese be able to apply comments in Greek - and will there be a version for Windows?

In theory yes to both of those questions Bryan... I've written Cheese in a cross platform way, so the idea is it should be easy to make build versions for other operating systems like Windows or even Linux.

However as software types often say, the goal of "Write once, run anywhere" usually ends up as "Write once, debug everywhere". :)
