Subject:  [kde-announce] Kile 1.7 released
Date:  Sun, 17 Oct 2004 10:56:21 +0200

As of now the Kile version 1.7, 
an Integrated LaTeX Environment for KDE, 
is available for download (for instructions use this link):
http://kile.sourceforge.net/download.php
or directly:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/kile/kile-1.7.tar.bz2?...

Kile-1.7 requires KDE 3.2 or newer.

This test release offers many new features, in particular the following should 
be tested (full Changelog can be found below):
- new tool system, QuickBuild tool can be configured completely
- it is possible to switch to other TeX systems besides LaTeX
- autocompletion of (La)TeX commands, configurable (Settings->Configure 
Kile->Complete)
- System Check (Settings->System Check), checks if all (La)TeX tools are 
available and if Kile is configured correctly. This needs to be checked since 
people have reported problems with this feature.
- Detailed clickable error summary.

Several others have worked on this release, in particular I would like to 
mention Holger Danielsson and Simon Martin, who both put a lot of effort into 
Kile.

best,
Jeroen
