<div class="newstitle">Release 2.1.4 (Unstable)</div>
<p>
<i>It's been over a year in the making...</i>
</p>
<p>
Although this latest development snapshot has only a few functional updates, its underlying technology has been largely overhauled.
The libgnomeprint library has been completely replaced with the new GtkPrintOperation and Cairo.
One side effect of print rendering with Cairo is that image compositing now works at full resolution.
Cairo has also replaced GnomeCanvas in the main display and drawing interface.
Many other deprecated dependencies have been replaced as well.  Because of this, this version requires at least Gnome 2.16.

commas, or colons; and newlines can be embedded into records by using
the "\n" entity.
