Hi,

this is to inform all of you about the immediate availability of the first 
snapshot release of the eric 4.4 line of development. It fixes a few bugs and 
adds a few new features.

The most prominent addition is debugger, profiling and unittest support for 
Python v3.

The changes are.
- added a Python3 compatible debugger and a respective project type
- added a "wrap around" option to the embedded search and replace dialogs
- changed code so that shell follows the selected stack frame of the local 
  variables viewer
- added an option to start the debugger in a console window to the various
  start dialogs
- made shell to be used by the terminal configurable for non-win systems
- added support for QtHelp files generation to eric4-doc and the IDE
- added support for "qthelp" URLs to the eric4 help viewer
- added widgets to show a table of contents, a search window and an index 
  of the eric4 QtHelp database and added functions to manage this database
- added the --debug and --config=configDir commandline options
- changed to latest coverage.py (v3.0b1)
- added option to configure the comment position (column 0 or first
  non-whitespace)

It is available via 
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=119070&package_id=300692.

Regards
Detlev
