There's full information at <a href="http://moin.delph-in.net/LkbFos" class="">http://moin.delph-in.net/LkbFos</a>, including installation instructions and a summary of improvements over previous versions of the LKB. I have also recently updated <a href="http://moin.delph-in.net/LkbWishlist" class="">http://moin.delph-in.net/LkbWishlist</a>, <a href="http://moin.delph-in.net/LkbBugs" class="">http://moin.delph-in.net/LkbBugs</a>, and <a href="http://moin.delph-in.net/LkbMacintosh" class="">http://moin.delph-in.net/LkbMacintosh</a></div> <div class=""><br class=""> </div> <div class="">Apart from usability improvements, the most visible change in LKB-FOS is to the type hierarchy display, which shows a target type's ancestors as well as its descendants, and includes commands to zoom in/out and to display type constraints. I hope this will make it easier to debug type hierarchies. I attach a couple of screenshots.</div> <div class=""><br class=""> Best wishes of the season,</div> <div class=""><br class=""> </div> <div class="">John</div> <div class=""><br class=""> <blockquote type="cite" class="">On 1 Sep 2017, at 10:57, John Carroll <<a href="mailto:J.A.Carroll@sussex.ac.uk" class="">J.A.Carroll@sussex.ac.uk</a>> wrote:<br class=""> <br class=""> Hi,<br class=""> <br class=""> I’ve just uploaded a new macOS version of the LKB with improved Unicode support and much faster GLB computation. This version addresses most of the points in "Proper support in the display/entry for non-ascii encodings" at <a href="http://moin.delph-in.net/LkbWishlist" class="">http://moin.delph-in.net/LkbWishlist</a> .<br class=""> <br class=""> The main highlights are:<br class=""> <br class=""> * The macOS 'Input Sources' menu can be used to switch between language scripts, and the 'Keyboard Viewer' provides convenient multilingual text entry.<br class=""> <br class=""> * Window titles are now able to show any Unicode character.<br class=""> <br class=""> * Grammar and lexicon files are no longer subject to Unicode NFC normalisation.<br class=""> <br class=""> * Much faster GLB computation for large type partitions.<br class=""> <br class=""> The download link and installation instructions are at <a href="http://moin.delph-in.net/LkbMacintosh" class=""> http://moin.delph-in.net/LkbMacintosh</a> . I’ve still got a long list of suggested enhancements from the DELPIN Summit and subsequently. I’m working on them, and I also hope to make a Linux version soon.<br class=""> <br class=""> John<br class=""> <br class=""> <br class=""> </blockquote> <br class=""> </div> <div class=""><img apple-inline="yes" id="06432138-6954-4558-9238-D56C137E6288" height="320" width="216" apple-width="yes" apple-height="yes" src="cid:8AE63F60-14E8-439D-9A69-56678B54AA93@inf.susx.ac.uk" class=""></div> <div class=""><img apple-inline="yes" id="C843E943-189B-44D1-824B-E1A078B0C900" height="118" width="320" apple-width="yes" apple-height="yes" src="cid:0DE7CE8D-39F7-421F-9F1B-4545F3563447@inf.susx.ac.uk" class=""></div> </body> </html>
