The new version is out and I’ve already been informed that it doesn’t handle cross-referenced notes that are output into GEDCOM by some programs. These are notes of the form NOTE @nn@ where the “nn” points to a note in a special note section of the GEDCOM. I’ll add this into the current set of changes.

Also, Behold was set up long ago where it maintained the directory where you last Opened a file and one where you last Saved a file. It seems this may cause more confusion than help, as you may lose track of where you are or save into a place you don’t want to. I’ll merge these two into one, and see if I can add a drop-down directory history on the Open and Save dialogs to help out. Also, improving the Find Files dialog will help locating these “lost files”.

Looking at my Future Plans list, it also looks worthwhile to have just 2 major steps left until beta in July: Everything Report and User Interface. So I’ve restructured that as well.
