Hello MJP,

Sorry for answering so late - I was having problems with our
newsserver...

You are right, I have forgotten to put a certain file into the program
library. Of course it will work again with the next release.

I will try to improve the JMOV editor a lot in the following releases. I
already am working on integrating it, so that the output window is the
editor window of JavE. It makes things a lot easier for users - but also
a lot harder for me to keep it free of bugs. But I think it should be
fine.

It is on my list.

I have already thought about that problem. The perfect solution would be
an installer that automatically updates yout patterns and cliparts... I
think I have to at least add and option to import them from other
files...
For the moment it should be ok to simply copy your own files over the
ones from the download package. There have not been many changes in
content and the format is compatible.

And BTW: One can upload cliparts/patterns and I will add them to the
download package:

Just go ahead. Comments and ideas are always welcome.
