Why the new version is 2.1 while the previous one was 2.90?

On Filed under FAQ

Version numbers used by the products on this site are not decimals*: they follow the scheme <version>.<revision>

Thus, 2.10 is not the same as 2.1: the latest MP3 Cat is version 2, revision 10. The previous one was actually 2.9.

* it would be too boring if everyone followed this rule: some people really use them as they were decimals or even marketing tools 🙂 There’s a quite long article on several versioning schemes on Wikipedia for the most curious ones.

  • Added a shortcut to toggle the toolbar (Command + T).
  • Made the statistics sheet resizable.
  • Free Cell: made it possible to select which game to play. Use the “Game->New Game with Options…” menu item to enter the number of the game. The first million games are the same that can be played on the Free Cell implementation shipped with Microsoft Windows.
