Ahnentafel report - Forum post by lkessler in Questions and Answers - 7 Nov 2013
Palou,
The families can be ordered in an Ahnentafel ordering by pressing the upside down A button on the toolbar ("Up to Organize" on the Organize menu). But Behold is family-based and shows organizations of families, and does not in its current form allow the display of just a certain set of selected people. ...

Missed target releases - Forum post by lkessler in Questions and Answers - 26 Sep 2013
Will,
Thanks for asking. I'll have to blog something soon. Life has been very busy for me recently with a lot of personal and family stuff going on that has slowed me down (including building a fence). An article I wrote for an Australian genealogy magazine on genealogy software will be published next month, ...

GEDCOM 5.5EL - Forum post by lkessler in Questions and Answers - 5 Sep 2013
Klemens,
Thank you for the link to those files. I've now added them to my test suite for Behold.

UTF-8 with BOM does not display right - Forum post by lkessler in Report a Problem - 5 Sep 2013
Klemens,
Yes, I can replicate the problem. Thank you for pointing it out.
I did some debugging and I think I've found the mistake I made.
It was bit dumb on my part. This was my checking code:
else if GedcomCharsetUsed = 'UTF-8' then begin
CharConvert := ConvertUTF8;

GEDCOM 5.5EL - Forum post by klemens in Questions and Answers - 5 Sep 2013
Hi Louis,
currently, a group of German programmers are working to make their GEDCOM export and import more standard compliant and compatible to each other.
They have not yet finished, but there is a GEDCOM test file that aims to use every tag that is defined in GEDCOM and every convention they have agreed on. ...
