Version Description / Built-in New Version Auto-update by STGuru

There are three language versions of STGuru - Standard Edition, Simplified Chinese Edition and Traditional Chinese Edition. Each language version has a free trial version and a full version. You can download the free trial version from the STGuru download pages at this site or our partner sites. Full versions are not for public release, we will provide download URL for the full version to a registered user upon receiving the order for this product.

 

Except that the command line function (it is designed for developers) is available only in STGuru standard edition, the fundamental functions of three language versions are just the same. They differ in UI language, installation language and documentation language.

 

New version auto-detect and update mechanism is embedded in STGuru. Once a stable new version or a stable minor new build of STGuru is available at Anasoft Studio, STGuru will prompt you for the news when you open your STGuru. You may just let STGuru download and install the new version automatically for you. Don't forget to exit from your opening STGuru for new version of STGuru to be installed on your computer. 

 

Release Note (STGuru 3.2, April 2010)

STGuru 3.2 (April 2010)

1. [Support for non-admin user accounts] Due to the restriction of non-administrator user accounts from accessing many disk files and entries in the Windows Registry, in previous versions, our products were not allowed to run without administrator's permissions. To enhance the experience of some users that frequently use non-admin accounts on Windows, from this version on, this product begins to support non-admin users. However, Windows' restrictions on non-admin users would not be removed simply because we support this type of user account. Please only operate on files or registry entries you have privilege on. You are still suggested to use our product with a user account with administrative permissions.

2. [Enhanced support for Windows Vista/7] Better compatibility for Windows Vista/7.

3. [Word adjustment engine: data update] Updated the conversion libraries at kernel and external levels.
4. [Feature update: file/folder character/word count] Improved the File/Folder Character/Word Count module. The size of the interface was reduced and is now more convenient. Fixed the bug of wrong statistics on 4+ GB files.

5. [Function improvement: Glossary Mode] STGuru's word adjustment module can be conveniently used on glossary management. In this update, we added a new option Glossary mode in the library editor. When it is checked, key interface strings will be changed to those for glossary management (“Before Adjustment”->“Term”; “After Adjustment”->“Explanations and Notes”; “Notes”->“Comments”), so this UI is more visual for those that use STGuru as a glossary manager. This option is available only when the library is a custom final fix library (Custom FF Library).

6. [Multiple other improvements and bug fixes] Including

a) Edit area color editor: When the color of a hidden edit area was changed in previous versions, the color block of that hidden area will show up. Fixed.

b) Word fix entry editor: Tabs and line feeds at the head or tail of the before/after adjustment words were not detected as special blank spaces. Fixed. Besides, an indicator was added at the bottom right of this dialog box so user can know this dialog box can be resized by dragging here.

c) File/folder conversion dialog box: File status detection could not detect files of 4+ GB in size. Fixed.

d) About dialog box: Layout resized. Now it is spatial and cozy.

e) Other improvements and bug fixes.

 

STGuru 3.1.6 (March 2010)

1. [Word adjustment engine: data update] Important data update based on mass conversion tests, including update of 10-20 characters in the very core and the revision/addition of 100+ entries in the word adjustment database.
2. [Documentation updates] Updated FAQ on the issue of unrecognized characters in conversion; updated the instruction for the Traditional Chinese tool for Baidu Tieba; updated Extra Notes for Word Adjustment.
3. [Bug fixes and updates] Some other bug fixes and updates.
 

STGuru 3.1.5 (January 2010)

1. [New feature: reminder sounds] Added reminder sounds when CHS-CHT conversions or character/word count is complete. The default sounds are wav sounds.  You may also change a reminder sound to a midi music if you like. A midi music is longer. It can be stopped by a mouse move. You can set a threshold time in seconds since which a reminder sound is activated, so only longer conversions or counts are reminded.
2. [Word adjustment engine: data update] Updated the conversion libraries.
3. [Word adjustment engine: functional bug fixes] Fixed the bugs of big memory usage (sometimes "out of memory") and wrong time and progress indicators when converting extra-large files.
4. [Word adjustment engine: interface improvements] Conversion is not allowed when the language-code combinations for the source and target are the very same. This is explicitly reminded in highlighted text since this version; other interface improvements and bug fixes.
5. [Improvement in installation] When updating to a new version, there might be an error prompt that an existing DLL could not be overwritten. This problem has been solved and you will have a smooth update.
6. [Documentation updates] A new document Practical STGuru Conversion Walkthrough is published in Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese (it could be found at http://www.speedy7.com/cn/stguru/video); updated the help documentations in Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese version based on localization standard; updated Extra Notes for Word Adjustment - a document in Simplified Chinese that you can find in the STGuru group in the Start menu.
 

STGuru 3.1.3 (October 2009)

Some important functional updates so our clients can use this product more conveniently:

1) Enhanced experience for full version users before activation. Now, in the first 7 days after a registered user downloads and installs the full version, even before he/she activates it, the user is immediately entitled to access the full features of this product without limitation! Therefore, the user can start working with STGuru without any limitation immediately and happily right after he/she gets the full version, and has a comfortable 7-day period to activate it.

2) Now you can add blank space(s) around the phrase before and after word adjustment. This feature is useful for localization experts who occasionally may need to convert between English and Chinese phrases - they may need to keep a space at each side of an English word even if the whole text is a Chinese one, while usually there is no space between Chinese characters in the same text. This feature can be further furnished in the next version.
3) Fixed the bug that sometimes the reported size of files copied during a directory conversion is inaccurate.
 

STGuru 3.1.2 (September 2009)

1. [Bug fixes] Fixed the bug that the profile Open from Explorer cannot be properly saved as well as some other profile-related bugs; fixed some bugs in the Advanced Word Adjustment dialog box.

2. [Video Training Courses] Some short video training courses on the basics and some advanced topics of STGuru have been published at http://www.speedy7.com/cn/stguru/video. Only Simplified Chinese edition is available at this time.

 

STGuru 3.1.1 (August 2009)

1. [Interface updates] In Baidu Post Assistant, description text is now presented with an edit box so users can copy/paste it easily; in the Advanced Word Adjustment system, as the software has long been converting text in much more code pairs than the original GBK vs. Big5, the codes corresponding to Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese in the descriptions and pack names were changed from GBK and Big5 to CHS and CHT.

 

STGuru 3.1 (August 2009)

1. [New function: Baidu Post Assistant] Traditional Chinese characters in the posts/articles posted onto Baidu.com's Tieba (forum) and Zhidao (know-how) are automatically converted to corresponding Simplified Chinese characters by the Baidu system, so you cannot post articles including Traditional Chinese characters on Baidu Tieba or Zhidao exactly as the originals by usual means. Baidu Post Assistant can help you fix this trouble by first converting a text including Traditional Chinese characters into special codes that Baidu can recognize. After you post the codes onto Baidu, the final post/article will appear exactly as the original text. You can paste/edit your source text into the "Source text" area or use Unicode format text in the clipboard as the source. The assistant will do the conversion job. Then you can paste and submit the codes to Baidu for the result you want to see.

2. [Function adjustment: Batch Replace] The command Batch Replace was added to the upper and lower "Edit" menus so you can call it conveniently. Originally this feature is accessible only after you open the Find/Replace dialog boxes and enable replace.

3. [Word adjustment engine: bug fix - add/paste entries] In the previous version, when a new entry was added or pasted and the "before adjustment" phrase was very short, an endless loop may occur. This bug was fixed.
