Hello ExamDiff-Team, resp. psguru

If you allow, here a few suggestions to update the PlugIns (I have started a new thread, because it's not related to the Win 10 thread before) ...


- Tidy:

The version is VERY old (2006). I have successfully installed the much newer version 5.0.0.RC1 32-bit from URL ...

http://www.htacg.org/binaries/

Note: the defined syntax in PlugIn Options has not changed.


- XML Canonocalize (XMLStarlet):

Maybe a newer version could be interesting here too. I have updated (just copy and pasted over the existing files to not loose some already existing files) from version 1.0.1 to 1.6.1. The URL is ...

http://sourceforge.net/projects/xmlstar/files/

Maybe, it would be enough to have only the new files, I don't know. However, you could make a package with existing AND newer files.

Note: the defined syntax in PlugIn Options has not changed.


- odt2txt:

I don't know a binary ressource, but on Github, you can download the source. For your programmers, it should be not a big problem to make a new binary (v0.5) from this. The URL is ...

https://github.com/dstosberg/odt2txt/

Maybe, it's not really necessary to use a newer version anyway - however, you have the link.


Okay, I hope you can use the infos.

Kind regards!

Fist, thank you for your suggestions.

We'll update the links at http://www.prestosoft.com/edp_plugins.asp and include new binaries in the next build of 8.0.

This one is tricky: we tried building Windows binaries but failed: the setup is too complicated. So we'll have to use the existing version for now.

I had also tried without success! However, not the most important thing


Thank you!
