Hello Lebeau Software subscribers,

This is just a quick note to let you know I'm still here, working away at
new versions of several of my programs.

For you MSAgent users, a new version of my TMSAgent component for Boland C++
Builder is now finished and ready, and will be available for download soon.
I'll send out another notice when it is online.

With this release will also come the first release of new suite of companion
components for making your own VCL-based forms look like speech balloons ala
MS Office Assistant. This includes new custom checkbox, radio, and button
components as well as the balloon component itself, for making any
TWinControl-based component have the appearance of a speech balloon (this is
particularly geared towards forms and panels primarily). These components
don't have to be used for balloons alone, either, they're generic enough to
stand alone in any of your projects.

A new version of my Agent Clipboard Reader program will also be released
soon, which uses the TMSAgent component. It will add new support for
specifying the language parameters the loaded character will use. I'm still
working on support for selecting the TTS engine that's used as well.

And lastly, for you ICQ users, I haven't forgotten you, either. My ICQ Chat
Player program is still on the horizon. I'll post more about it later when
I have more information to share about it.

Until next time...
