   PopChar X 8.1

   Agen G. N. Schmitz

   Ergonis Software has issued [1]PopChar X 8.1, refining the new features
   introduced in the recently released version 8.0 (see '[2]PopChar X
   8.0,' 16 June 2017) and adding support for the new Unicode 10.0
   standard. The character discovery utility brings additional search
   keywords for emoji characters for easier searching, improves the speed
   of collecting ligatures (with reduced memory allocation), resolves a
   crash on Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard related to ligature extraction,
   fixes a couple of bugs related to searching for characters, and reduces
   the overall memory footprint. ('¬29.99 new with a 25 percent discount
   for [3]TidBITS members, free update from version 8.0, 5.0 MB,
   [4]release notes, 10.6+)
