SmallNews 2.5 - now works on Lion

SmallNews 2.5 is available for download. This version works with Mac OS X 10.7/Lion.

To get it to work with Lion, it is now a much bigger download than before. While this version does work with Leopard and Snow Leopard (10.5 & 10.6), I have left 2.4 available for download, as this has exactly the same functionality and a much smaller download.

That said, there is one other fix in SmallNews 2.5. A problem with creating PDFs of individual articles from the database is fixed. If you didn’t have Prince XML installed, this would fail. Now, it handles the installation of Prince XML for you.

Mac OS X Lion and Small apps

I am pleased to say that both SmallDVD and SmallShrink appear to be working perfectly OK with Mac OS X 10.7 / Lion. If you spot any problems with them on Lion, please do let me know.

Unfortunately, SmallNews has a problem, and doesn’t even start up. I will have a look at this and issue a new release when it’s fixed.
