Downloading NewsPro

NewsPro is offered for Linux and Windows. Both downloads contain same-functional code.
If you plan to download, unpack and edit from a windows PC, you should download the windows version, otherwise get the Linux version.
The difference is the encoding of line-endings on windows and linux systems (CR-LF or CR). If you open the files and only see a glorious mess of not ending lines then you may consider downloading for the other operating system.

Sometimes it happens that the Linux version is out for download a day or so earlier than the Windows version. The cause is that myself works on a Linux workstation and I test on Linux systems.

Actual News
15.09.2003: Bugfix release 1.0.4
Bugfix-release 1.0.4 has been released, this version hopefully fixes the problem that sometime sending many emails stops.
Please have a look at the download page!
31.07.2002: Bugfix release 1.0.3
Quick'n'short: 2 bugs have been discovered which are now fixed by the bugfix release 1.0.3.
First thing fixed is a password problem with different implementations of the crypt() routine. This prevented one in some situations to login to newspro the first time.
The second fix corrects handling of line ends. In some cases it was possible that double empty lines were produced by the script.
Please download your actual copy of NewsPro mail in our download section.

11.01.2002: release of version 1.0
As there are no more bugs, today i release version 1.0 of the popular NewsPro Newsletter.
Please have a look at the download!
09.01.2002: Looking forward to v1.0
The last two months development of newspro freezed and i waited for any upcoming new bug reports to fix. Many many people downloaded NewsPro 0.6 and use it, but no bugs were found.
This is good news for me, so i will make the step to version 1.0 in near future. I will implement some minor new things, but most of the current version will be the same and gets into 1.0 stable. So i will now have a look forward to upcoming features that will find their way into the version 1.x to 2.0 and so on. It would be nice if NewsPro would speak more languages, but their are no translators available. If you feel able to do a translation job, feel free to contact me: tr@erdfunkstelle.de.
