What's new in TagAnt 2.0.4 Development
Mar 1, 2022
- Bug fixes:
- The .pkg installer approach on MacOS appears to change the ownership and permissions or apps in unpredictable ways causing some users to not be able to launch the app and/or use it without crashes. To address this problem, the MacOS version of AntConc will be released as a .dmg from 2.0.4 onwards.
- The help file and version history file for the software have been updated to reflect recent changes and fix various typos.
New in TagAnt 2.0.3 Development (Mar 1, 2022)
- Bug fixes:
- While addressing the bug in 2.0.2 a different bug was introduced that caused the direct tagging operation to fail. This is now fixed. I took this opportunity to also slightly adjust the interface to position the start button in a more intuitive location.
New in TagAnt 2.0.2 Development (Dec 8, 2021)
- Bug fixes:
- When trying to read various malformed files (e.g., non-UTF8 encoded files, DOC files, PDF files), the program crashed. Files that cannot be processed are now ignored and a warning is shown. This change has led to a new feature being added, i.e., the ability to now process Word and PDF files.
New in TagAnt 1.3.0 (Dec 1, 2021)
- New features:
- TagAnt now handles many more languages.
- TagAnt now stores the tagged files in a separate folder (called "tagged") in the parent folder of the raw texts
New in TagAnt 2.0.1 Development (Nov 30, 2021)
- Bug fixes:
- Fixed an error that caused the file name to be repeatedly displayed in the output put after every line of a user file was tagged.
- Fixed a refresh issue that caused the progress bar to not reflect the tagging progress
New in TagAnt 2.0.0 Development (Nov 30, 2021)
- New features:
- TagAnt has now been completely re-written on top of the SpaCy natural language processing (NLP) framework. This allows for many new features to be added including: more languages to be processed, better accuracy, faster processing, more word components available to be displayed
- The TagAnt interface has been completely re-written to reflect the options offered by the new underlying engine.
- The build process to compile the app for Windows has been updated. Now the application is released with an installer or as a portable application.
- The build process to compile the app for Mac OS has been updated. Now the application is released as a pkg file that can be installed into a normal location (e.g. the Applications folder). The app is also digitally signed and notarized by Apple so fewer security errors will appear
New in TagAnt 1.2.0 (Nov 30, 2021)
- New features:
- Now handles many more languages.
- Now line breaks are maintained in the tagged output.
- Bug fixes:
- Sometimes the program would hang when processing non-English text. This has hopefully been fixed.
- Now file name ordering is maintained in the output window.
