I was hoping to combine the latest XSB update with the additional Linux sound logging code. However, it's taking longer than I wanted to get the next version out.
It's taking longer because I decided to add an additional preference window for a new setting, which allows the user to specify the width of the text window and chat bar. This is especially handy for those using the Matrox triple-head solution, because X-plane sees that as one screen and thus would stretch the text box all the way across all three screens.
The reason a simple dialog box is taking a bit of time is because it's more complex than you might think. Each coordinate of each element in the dialog box must be specified manually. Try to place some things, compile, launch X-plane, test. Move them a little bit, compile, launch X-plane, test. Wash, rinse repeat.
And of course the biggest time consumer is that real-life things are getting in the way, like my seven-year-old son's baseball season.
However, I know Linux users are tired of waiting, so I'm going to go ahead and put up a private download by the end of the weekend for Linux users. It will contain only additional logging code for sound - no other new features.
