*bump*

Doors CS 6.5 Beta is the first DCS7 beta to contain one of the biggest feature additions to Doors CS 7, alongside Homerun, Folder Backup, and Runprog Chaining: built-in support for XLib / Celtic III / PicArc / Omnicalc compatibility.  Building off Iambian's generous donation of the Celtic III code base, this version of Doors CS adds many improvements, bug fixes, and optimizations to that code base.  In addition, it provides many core Doors CS bug fixes and optimizations, including repair of a graphics glitch with FileOpen/FileSaveAs, fixes for malfunctions when copying and renaming programs, repair of an issue where deleting the DCS7 appvar without a RAM reset could cause duplicate folders to be created, and many more.

You guys have been invaluable in providing feedback and comments.  As always, testing, bug reports, suggestions, and comments are solicited and welcomed.  I would particularly appreciate if authors of XLib and Celtic programs would try out their programs and let me know of any issues, including whether Doors CS properly handles incorrect syntax or arguments to Celtic III and XLib functions.  Please take note of the known and fixed XLib / Celtic III compatiblity issues and the usual To-Do list.

Errr... I think you messed up with the screenies. One is from DCS5 and another has pinned programs in the taskbar, a feature that hasn't been implemented.

Wow nice!

Despite this not being the latest version of DCS7, I think this deserves news here soon. Glad to see xLIB/Celtic compatibility progressing ^^

(I also hope ticalc.org features Door CS 7)

EDIT: problemo with Super Mario Smash Dance :(

Thanks, I hope so too, despite a (hopefully past) anti-Cemetech bias. :)

Odd, did the same happen if you ran it from the DCS desktop?

No RAM clears there, but the game still didn't ran. I saw the xlib not enabled message then it quits back to DCS7 desktop

In case anyone is an Axe fan, a simple 90-byte-ish addition that lets Doors CS (1) identify Axe source code (2) edit said code instead of trying to execute this.  The left screenshot shows it identifying code, while the right screenshot demonstrates a variety of execution scenarios, including DCS and Homerun, archived and RAM, locked and unlocked.

It's three pages, actually :P

If you check out my signature, on or before September 1, 2010. :)  And yes, it's actually three pages.  Doors CS 5 was one page, Doors CS 6 added a page for all kinds of GUI subsystem stuff, hooks, and such, and Doors CS 7 adds another page for about 12KB of Celtic / XLib libraries.

Sorry, didn't see that.

That's still worth it, though.

And DCS8: another page for Axe-style parsing? :)

EDIT: Wow, three smilies in three quote zones.

EDIT2: What does CS stand for, anyway?

You know, it is actually possible to make an Axe interpreter, but it would necessarily be so much slower than if it were compiled.

Love the update by the way. :)

Just so you know, only the period followed by a capital letter/theta is an axe header, I think you mentioned something about allowing other symbols to show up as source.

That would be nice, altough I would recommend that it's not implemented until Axe is finished, in case changes are done to Axe syntax itself. It could be nice, though, altough as Quigibo said, it would be much slower. Think for example of BBC Basic speed.
