Start++ 0.8.1

This is a minor update to last week's release.  Currently I have not enabled automatic updates for users on 0.7.x.  I will enable them in a day or two assuming no regressions are found with this release.

The changes are:

  • The typing delay added in 0.8 will now only affect Start Gadgets, and only once they are already showing.  This was added to prevent unnecessary queries to the web server while you are still typing.  This fix, combined with prevous ones, should give a much better response to your typing than in the past for all situations.
  • Any systems which use comma-delimited decimal formats should no longer save out incorrect data for the ZoomFactor parameter in the XML.  This should prevent the crashes many users of non-English systems have been seeing.
