Hello everyone,

Platypus 4.4 is out.  Sports the following improvements:

        * New output mode: "Droplet"
        * Development mode now also creates symlinks to bundled files, not just 
the script
        * New high-resolution 512x512 icon presets
        * New "Default Text Encoding" option in Preferences
        * STDOUT and STDERR are no longer captured in output mode "None"
        * Platypus apps now use the Apple-recommended, more secure temporary 
location for secure scripts
        * More text encoding options
        * Show Shell Command option is now more intelligent about creating a 
terse, efficient shell command without superfluous parameters
        * Various small bug fixes and optimizations in Platypus app binaries
        * Updated and improved code for executing script with privileges
        * Updated and improved output parsing in Progress Bar output mode
        * Fixed documentation so that it uses external images instead of data 
URLs
        * Fixed bug where Platypus would incorrectly claim to be unable to 
create Platypus application support folder
        * Fixed bug where background color from text settings would not be 
applied to the text view in Progress Bar output mode
        * Fixed bug where syntax checking would work incorrectly with Perl 
scripts
        * Fixed bug when interface in a Platypus app would lock up when 
dropping files in authenticated execution mode
        * Fixed various bugs in Progress Bar output mode
        * Fixed bug in output mode "None" where app would fail to quit on 
script termination
        * Fixed small memory leak when applications were created

Enjoy!
