Still waiting

I am still waiting for the first Maxwell Render Version fully operable, without a single bug. Sorry but sometime I get tired of dealing with bugs, and need a more stable platform.
Once you have that, then users could have a choise of staying with that version, or upgrade to new unexpected versions.
Today we have no choise.

If you need to know what an unusable software is for real, join me in the Vue community! There will alwais be someone that is in a worse condition than you

Open up Notepad
Type in this sentence exactly (without quotes): "this app can break"
Save the file to your hard drive.
Close Notepad
Open the saved file by double clicking it, and you will see ...
桴獩愠灰挠湡戠敲歡
a sequence of Chinese characters or empty squares...

Its a bug of sorts.
Something about unicode vs ANSI detection between saving and opening a file that contains a string of characters in the format "aaaa aaa aaa aaaaa"
They say it has been corrected in the Vista version.

lol...that's fixed on Vista.
@Bubbaloo: it's trying to take a guess about the encoding of the document, and failing with this particular pattern of characters...if you don't much about text encodings...don't ask - you
really don't want to know.

This thread reminds me of a lyric from a Little Feat song: "Some kind of man, he can't do anything wrong. If I see him I'll tell him you're waiting."
