Don, I made the change described in the previous post.

  1. removed the version number of the theme from the menubar.

  2. changed the name of the first command in the system menu (the one with your name in its title) to "Software versions" which is what it's really about. 

  3. in that dialog you will get all the versions of all the software running in rss.chat.

ICE Agent Who Shot Immigrant In Maine Has Shocking History Of Violence

When the Trump administration announced it was lowering hiring standards and shortening the length of training for Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers so that the agency could have more warm bodies to aid in President Donald Trump’s racist mass deportation efforts, experts warned that the changes could have deadly consequences.

Sadly, those experts’ warnings are proving to be correct.

The goodnight dialog no longer leaves a dead app behind

github.com/scripting/rss.chat/blob/main/client/code/worknotes.md

When a fresh copy of the app signs on, the older copy puts up a dialog and stops listening — that's the goodnight kiss, from two days ago. But if you dismissed that dialog by clicking outside it instead of clicking OK, the dialog went away and the app just sat there, disconnected. Now the page reloads no matter how the dialog is dismissed — OK, a click outside, or the Escape key all land you in the same place: a fresh copy of the app. (Client v0.6.8.)

Don there are actually quite a few version numbers in rss.chat, so a single tool tip couldn't cover it. We do have a command that gets you all the version numbers, it's the first one in the system menu at the right side of the menu bar. You can also get to that same dialog by clicking on the theme version number, but I'm thinking we should change the way that works. While we were in rapid development mode of the UI, that would let me know that I was using the latest version of the themes code. But we aren't moving that quickly any longer, and there are other components we need to keep track of. So we'll probably change that around now. Stay tuned.
