We are currently (more than ever before) focusing on programming, so I was too busy to post some updates. Juraj is 400km far from me, so instant messaging and remote source code repository are our best friends now :) We are going to spend October at home, suspended from any of our job duties. We will be working fulltime whole month here in Prague on Intype. This will definitely be the greatest step in development.

SonyaEditor is doing very well and we are starting to be proud of it. Editor now fully supports Unicode, and is flawlessly rendering Hebrew, Thai or whatever you can imagine in Unicode. We are preparing some internal tests of rendering engine, encoding detection and encoding conversions. I’ll let you know how it went. We also have new and slick text-run based styling engine, that will be soon joined with parser. In the background, the ‘web team’ is silently working on Intype website, that will be launched in first days of October.

There is also one big change to Intype. We decided to leave Lua, and replace it with JavaScript for scripting, that is more common for web-developers, and its implementation supports Unicode, so it saves us from a lot of trouble in the future.
