- upstream release 0.6.3

- Most important changes:

- New features and improvements
  New element <i18n> for use in plugins' logic section: Provides a translatable string property
  New element <label> for use in plugin help pages: Copies the label-attribute of the given element into the text
  New string property modifier "quoted" to make it easier to quote dynamic strings inside plugins
  Reworked distribution calculator plugins
  Added power analysis plugin (already existed as separate plugin)
  Assume plugin .js files to be in utf-8 encoding; this allows using non-ascii characters in the generated code
  <matrix> element gains options min_rows and min_columns, and the details of fixed_width="true" have been improved
  Add R function rk.set.plugin.status() to allow further customization of loaded plugins (hiding of individual menu entries)
  Pluginmap-management was reworked, partially, and moved to Settings->Manage R packages and plugins
  Provide more detailed information on loaded plugins in rk.list.plugins()
  Allow to override plugins from a different pluginmap (the plugin with the highest specified version is used)
  When the RKWard installation has moved on disk, try to adjust stored .pluginmaps paths, accordingly
  Allow opening RKWard's plugin files (with correct highlighting), and other text files
  More robust control over placement of plugins within a menu
  Restructure layout of CSV-import dialog
  Allow to open (any number of) R script files and rkward://-urls from the command line
  Add command line option --reuse for reusing an existing instance of RKWard
  Be slightly(!) smarter about when (not) to ask for saving workspace on workspace load (e.g. not directly after workspace has been saved)
  Change default in Workspace browser to showing only .GlobalEnv, initially
  Support automatically generating a printable header parameter from most plugin elements
  New Object based convience method for printing headers from plugins
  Implement polyPath()-drawing in RK() device
  Pre-compile the common js code included in every plugin (only when compiled with Qt >= 4.7)
  Improve crash recovery dialog to not prompt again for the same files
  Plugins and in-application help pages can now be fully translated

- Fixes
  Fixed: Hang when trying to select existing directories in file selectors on Windows
  Fixed: <valueslot>s were quirky with respect to showing as invalid
  Fix a hang-on-exit issue
  Fixed: Error when using fix() or trace(...edit=TRUE) with default settings on some systems
  Fixed: Freezes when using RKWard-functionality (such as the RK()-device) from tcl/tk (e.g. Rcmdr)
  Fix several issues of excessive printing of digits in plugins' output
  Fixed potential crash while the "RKWard Debug Messages" window is visible
  Fixed display of file paths containing non-ascii characters in the title bar and startup dialog

Mon Apr  8 13:30:01 UTC 2013 - detlef.steuer@gmx.de

- Update to R-3.0.0. Note: it works with R-3.0.0 only if compiled against.
  If compiled against an older version, i.e. against 2.15.2 as in 12.3 it
  won't work with a newer version and must be recompiled.

- Update notes from upstream:
--- Version 0.6.1 - Apr-02-2013
- Add option to force-close a graphics window
- Add plugin for subsetting data.frames by rows or columns
- On the Windows platform, add an new (experimental) binary startup wrapper (rkward.exe)
- Revert to building R packages form source on Mac OS X by default (controllable via compile-time option)
- Fixed: lattice plots would not be added to the plot history, correctly, for some versions of lattice
- Fix crash when trying to print, and neither okular, nor kpdf are available
- Added support for loaded namespaces that are not attached to a loaded package
- Pluginmaps can specify their "priority". Pluginmaps with low priority will not be added automatically, when found.
- Pluginmaps can <require> other pluginmaps based on their id (for cross-package inclusion)
- Added new element <dependency_check> for dynamic version checks within a plugin (R and RKWard versions, only, so far)
- Add guard against accidental usage of the standard distributed pluginmaps in a later version of RKWard (installed in parallel)
- Easier (de-)activation of RKWard plugin maps using checkboxes (Settings->Configure RKWard->Plugins)
- Broken or quirky .pluginmap files are reported to the user, completely broken maps are disabled, automatically
- Implement basic dependency handling for plugins / pluginmaps
- Added support for the upcoming R 3.0.0                        TODO: Check for any more regressions, before release
- Added <switch> logic element to switch between several target properties (or fixed values) based on the value of a condition property

- Add in-application debug message viewer (targetted at (plugin) developers)
- Add setting to customize initial working directory
- Windows only: Add UI-checkbox for R's "internet2"-option
- New functions getString(), getList() and getBoolean() for fetching data in plugin scripts
- Boolean properties now return a numeric, not labelled representation of their value, by default. <checkbox>es should be unaffected.   TODO: when announcing release, link to explanation mail.
- Added <optionset> GUI element for entering a set of options for an arbitrary number of items
- Reduce CPU usage of pluings while idle
- Fix conversion from Numeric to Factor in the data editor
- In the data.frame editor, columns containing invalid values are now highlighted in red
- Fixed: If none of the previous plugin maps could be found on startup, re-add the default

- aj asked for details why a user should update.
- Note: I'm only the packager, not even using this software
- myself. But if you ask: here is upstream's list of improvements:
  New features and improvements
        Preview device windows will display some status information (most importantly, warnings or errors)
        Most plot plugins gain options to control margins and tick label orientation
        Added option for installing packages from source (implicitly enabled on Unixoid platforms)
        Omit comments on missing function calls in dialog code windows (e.g., if prepare() is unused, there's no "## Prepare" in the output either)
        Output markup is now more XHTML compliant and easier to parse
        Also save cursor position, folding, etc. for scripts. Note: Implementation details may be subject to change.
        New function rk.list.labels() to retrieve column labels in a data.frame
        rk.get.label() will now return an empty string ("") instead of NULL, in case no label is assigned
        Do not offer to restore individual removed columns of a data.frame opened for editing

        Reorganized t-test plugin, and add support for single sample t-tests
        Box plot plugin gains more options for adding means
        Improve keypress handling issues in the R Console, when the cursor or a selection is outside the editable range
        Only install translations which are at least 80% complete (not counting strings in plugins, which are not yet translatable)
        When asking for workspace file to open, use appropriate file filter
        When configured to ask for workspace to open on startup, don't prompt to save, first
        Simplified the "Sort Data" plugin, and added a help page
        Added GUI support for inspecting the call stack during debugging
        The backend executable is no longer linked against KDE libraries
        Objects, which are not acceptable in a varslot, will still be shown, there, with a warning 
    Bugfixes
        Fixed: Entering "0" as propabilities (quantiles) vector in distribution plugins would cause error message
        Fixed: Wrong handling of carriage returns ('\r') in the console window
        Fixed: Spinboxes had wrong initial values

        Fixed: Failure to open workspaces with non-latin1 filenames from the command line
        Fixed: Saving / restoring workplace layout would fail when saving to directories with unusual characters
        Fixed: potential crash when clicking "Select all updates" in the package installation dialog
        Fixed: potential crash in object name completion under certain conditions
