[kwlug-disc] Raul's presentation on programming 2 questions

[Michael Savage]

Thank you... however, the unzipping of the tgz file, creates a 10K tar file. 
Trying to open that file does not work with either mind map or 7Z. Again, what 
have I forgotten? (The mm file is still 45 bytes)

Oops, more than 2 questions now...

TIA,
Mike

It may be that the version of FreeMind that gets installed in Ubuntu Lucid is 
newer than the version currently being distributed for Windows. It may not know 
how to understand a newer version of the file.

The "stable" version you can download from the site is 8.1 and it is at least 3 
years old.

Version 0.9 is still a release candidate but I can tell you that it worked quite 
well.

Get it from sourceforge directly.
