VERSION 2.0

NEW

Version 2.0 has got many new features. In the points below you can read what has 
changed.

What has changed most are the tests. At first Babylonia now uses scores in 
addition to progresses. The progress is now shown in the wordlist screen by a 
black line, while the progress bar itself has been replaced by a score bar. The 
score actually indicates the number of correct answers among the last five 
answers of a word. If the score bar is green, the score is sufficient. If you 
have set a word for testing in both directions, you see two bars in the score 
column now. The upper bar indicates the score from the foreign language to your 
own language, and the lower bar the score from your own language to the foreign 
language.

Version 2.0 has more different ways of testing words. In addition to the 
exercise method (that version 1.x used) you can now have Babylonia take an exam. 
In an exam a certain number of words is asked and in the end you get a mark 
between 1 and 10. A mark under 6 is not sufficient.

In a test window you get more information than in the old version. In the case 
of an exercise you can see what score you've got for the word on your screen, 
and how far the exercise has progressed in total. During an exam you see the 
number of right and wrong answers. There's also an extra field in which you can 
type the answer yourself, so that you can compare it with the right answer 
better.

You can now add a context in the foreign language for every word. You can also 
show the context in a test, possibly as extra help. Contexts can also be read 
together with the words and lessons from a text file and they can be exported to 
a text file. The text files are composed a bit differently for that purpose.

You can record the pronunciation for every word in the foreign language. Just 
like the context you can use the pronunciation in an exercise. There are two 
special tests: the listen test and the dictation. In a listen test Babylonia 
pronounces the word and you have to give the translation in your own language. 
In a dictation you have to think of what word has been pronounced (and how you 
spell it).

The menu command Wordlist | Sort... has disappeared, but you can still sort a 
wordlist. Now you can sort on every column, simply by clicking in the column 
heading. Although sorting can be undone now, you are still asked for a 
confirmation.

You can move the columns and change their sizes. But the columns with the words 
in the foreign language and in your own language have to stay the first two 
columns. And you can only change the size of columns where you can enter a text.

VERSION 1.1

NEW

Version 1.1 has got a new setup program and a new uninstall program. Because of 
this installing and removing Babylonia has been improved and you can enter your 
registration code already at setup.

FIXES

In version 1.0 the random choices made in exercises were not always very random. 
For example it could occur that you alternately had to translate a series of 
words from the foreign language to your own language and then a series of words 
from your own language to the foreign language. In version 1.1 more random 
choices are made in exercises.

If you open a wordlist of which a font is not installed or a font does not 
support the desired character set, Babylonia asks you if you want to change the 
font and/or the character set.
In the window where you can do this, version 1.0 always filled in the default 
character set and if you changed the character set, it was not changed in the 
wordlist.
In version 1.1 the character set that's stored in the wordlist is filled in and 
if you change the character set, it's also changed in the wordlist.

In version 1.1 there's no effect anymore when you click in the last row in the 
wordlist screen while that row is only partly visible. In version 1.0 clicking 
in a partly visible last row could have unintentional effects.

When in version 1.0 a wordlist was opened from Windows, for example by double-
clicking a wordlist file, the title bar of Babylonia showed the short filename 
of at most 8 characters (sometimes abbreviated with ~1). In version 1.1 the long 
filename is shown in the title bar.

In version 1.0 selecting a file type in the Import dialogue could influence the 
selected file type in the Open dialogue. In version 1.1 this doesn't happen 
anymore.
