Kye 0.7 Released

This release adds a lot of features and improvements. The keyboard input should be better now, as it tries to allow for multiple keys being pressed at once. We will see if people find the feel of this better. You also now have access to diagonal movement using the numeric keypad, which was not possible before. The interface should be closer to the Gnome/gtk standard feel now.

This version remembers recently played files, and remembers levels that you have already reached in the Goto Level dialog. And you can now record Kye games: this is experimental, and I certainly don't guarantee that recordings with this release will play back in future releases. It is probably useful mostly for me to answer people's questions about levels.

Finally, I have decided to impose the same rule as the Windows version of Kye, that the border of levels must be solid walls. I think this is simpler, as even I was forgetting this rule when designing levels; so some of the levels that I released were not compatible with the Windows version of Kye. It's a shame, but for the moment it's more useful for us to interoperate with the Windows version.

The new release is available from the Python Kye page.
