Same here. Although you can use the Mirabilis website if you're
desperate.

Yes, AFAIK the latest version is 0.1732, I don't remember the URL for
the site where you can find updates, but doing a quick search on
http://www.realdreams.cz/amiga should turn up something, as there was
an update recently (ie. in the past week or so).

However, as far as I can tell the updates are purely cosmetic, nothing
of real use has been added yet. And, compared to 0.1727, they're
horribly unstable on my machine.

Gerry
