Neither 24th nor 25th but todayth

Yep, Santa came earlier than usual on RealGPx to bring you some good gift to end the year : a new GP4 Builder Xmas Edition.

Latest one was in 2006 for the very first release of GP4 Builder. 3 years and about 350 changes later, here comes GP4 Builder 1.350.
This version affords the very first and much awaited multi-selection features. Restricted to .gp4 faces so far (but completed by a very handy new context menu), it's the first step for a full multi-selection everywhere. A complete rework of all windows also brings more clarity and affords new compliance with 120 dpi operating systems and Windows 7/Vista Aero. Last but not least it brings lots of enhancements and bugfixes left from past version.

As you know, new versions will become rarer (and rarer) so I hope you will enjoy this one and as I might not be there at H hour, I wish you a Merry Christmas !
