Version 3 Released!

Post by alanbirtles » Sun Sep 11, 2005 10:36 pm

Version 3.0.b1 of the grabber is now available, it is a beta version and is definately not complete, I have released it more as a demo for people wishing to develop grabbers than as a functional grabber for end users. In this version the GUI is not finished (started), to start the grabbing simply press "Button1"
