I have the current version from Github but I am still seeing the issues with
the put get dialogs.

Thanks

Right now the build script sets up SWT for development on Linux only. I
don't have good access to a Mac anymore but I will try to fix that soon.

The cells per line permits writing over the limit, is this intended? I do no
hear a bell warnings for cells per line or >lines per page. I assume this is
not working yet.

Right now it is "pico" style as us old timers put it. Lines are not wrapped
automatically but the Ctrl-F Rewrap from cursor command will do it.

The save dialog, on a Mac are not working. We are getting get file dialogs,
used for opening a file rather than put >file dialogs that are used for
saving files.

Key commands on MacOS need to be the command key not the control key.

These issues may have already been dealt with in the current version.

That works. I should have a stand alone Mac Version working here soon. This
looks very good, can I suggest a couple of points...

The display of the Braille should default to 24 points which is close to
embossed Braille.

The save dialog, on a Mac are not working. We are getting get file dialogs,
used for opening a file rather than put file dialogs that are used for saving
files.

You need to give the JVM the argument: -XstartOnFirstThread

Does that work?

Mike, I believe this argument is harmless on other systems and so may be
worth having this in a launcher so users need not get concerned by it.
