5. Miniwindow pen styles can now have some optional extra flags:



There is a discussion with some screenshots here:



http://www.gammon.com.au/forum/?id=10531&page=2



Basically you can add the following to the PenStyle parameter to control how pens (if used) both join (eg. in a polygon) or end (eg. in a line).



0x0000 - round ends   (0 = the default)

0x0100 - square ends  (256)

0x0200 - flat ends    (512)



0x0000 - round joins  (0 = the default)

0x1000 - bevel joins  (4096)

0x2000 - miter joins  (8192)



The default behaviour is to do what it did before.



[Commit 3de68fa]







6. Added LuaJSON to the distribution.



This version of LuaJSON (1.1) downloaded from:



http://luaforge.net/projects/luajson/



To use JSON, just do something like this:



require "json"

t = GetVariableList ()  -- table of variables

j = json.encode (t)     -- encode it

print (j)               -- show results



require "tprint"

t1 = json.decode (j)    -- decode back into table

tprint (t1)             -- show new table





[Commit 6426a66, 171eaa3, 593ac1b, 227fcac]





7. Fixed bug where, if you did a ColourNote in a trigger which was omitting from output, and the omitted text had multiple style runs, then the text would be jumbled.
