Epsilon for Windows includes a new configure-epsilon command that starts a dialog for reconfiguring its Start menu icon, setting up file associations, and similar tasks.
Epsilon and EEL now use simpler rules to locate their files. Relocating Epsilon's installation to a different directory requires setting an explicit EpsPath in fewer cases. As a result of this, the -w4 flag's behavior in previous versions is now the default; the new -w32 reverses it. And -w flag settings are now cumulative.
Under Windows, Epsilon's state file has a new default name that incorporates the version number, as under Unix. And Epsilon for Windows now writes customized state files to the user's customization directory, like Epsilon for Unix.
The set-color dialog now displays color classes arranged in a tree format. You can now use Ctrl-S and related keys within the Windows set-color dialog to search for class or scheme names. Searching for class names also works under both Win32 and Unix console environments.
Epsilon now recognizes the new -dir flag to set a relative directory for relative command line file names. This helps it support uses like "epsilon -add filename" where filename is a Cygwin-style pathname.
Epsilon now processes -l command line flags at the same time as -d flags, so an -l flag to load EEL code may define variables for a later -d to set.
The -wait flag and its resume-client command now work under Windows too.
