Release Notes: This release adds initial translations from OSTD (Open Source Translation Database), hides the titlebar when maximized on GNOME 3.4 and later, reports "Document type is not supported" when loading fails instead of clearing the currently open document, supports filtering voices by the current document's language, and fixes reading/recording section ranges (it would miss the last section).


Release Notes: This release redesigns the UI, making it consistent with the GNOME 3 application designs. It doesn't show the "unable to open document" dialog when launching the program. It will keep the previous document if opening a document fails.


Release Notes: Voices are now displayed in a list and can be selected. The voice is switched to match the document-specified language if different. Voice and engine details are shown in the information/metadata view. An error dialog is displayed if an error occurs while speaking. The recent documents dialog was made wider for GTK+ 3. Progress indicators when using the Radiance and Ambiance themes were fixed. A crash that occurred if no file was selected from the recent documents UI was fixed. Selection of the recorded file format based on file extension was fixed (previously, it was always Ogg/Vorbis). Opening of documents containing spaces was fixed.


Release Notes: This release allows you to read and record ePub, HTML, and other text documents. It can record the whole document or a range of chapters to WAV and Ogg Vorbis. Document information and table of contents can be viewed, and elapsed and total reading/recording time displayed.
