>: Hello.  I'm pleased to announce the release of ubt-0.93, the
>newest
>: version of the Unix and Mac OS X based tool for transfering text
>and audio
>: files to your Book Port or Book Courier.  This is a maintenance
>release,
>: incorporating several accumulated bug fixes, the most notable of
>which is a
>: fix to the text indexer which should cause transfered texts to
>read more
>: smoothly than they did previously.  Also, although it is not
>entirely
>: fixed, the pointer lagging problem should be significantly
>reduced for V21
>: indexes, and maybe even eliminated entirely for V22 indexed
>files.
>: 
>: As always, you can retrieve the latest version of ubt from:
>: http://www.nfbcal.org/~buhrow/ubt 
>: 
>: It's also worth noting that May 1, 2007 marked the first
>aniversary of the
>: release of the ubt utility.
>: 
>: As usual, feel free to let me know if there are any issues you
>run into
>: using this tool.  And, of course, happy reading!
>: 
>: P.S.  Here is the ChangeLog file for ubt, in case you're
>interested in
>: seeing exactly what's new.  As this file grows, it won't be
>practical
>: to include it in these announcements, but right now, it's small.
