| Scripts |
| The scripts that have been recently updated are available at the following address: www.antp.be/temp/scripts. I update the installation package only when there are several scripts that have been updated, or when an important site changes (like IMDB or Allociné for example). So if a script does not work anymore, it may already been updated on this page but not yet officially included with the program. The brand new scripts are also available there some time before being included with the program. |

| Version 3.5.0.2 |
| Requires Borland Delphi 7 Professional or Entreprise with Update 1 |
| Last update: 2005-05-29 |
| Main source code |
| Components (package containing some components that I made, a modified version of TCorelButton and some derivated components from the JVCL) |
| Additionnal components required | |
| For each component, I offer a local link (in the column
at the right) that corresponds to the version that I use. The installation/compilation
may be easier when using this version instead of the official one, especially
when it evolved or disappeared ;) In the RAR file containing the source code, I also included a modified version of FreeReport and the version 2 of Innerfuse Pascal Script (this version is not available anymore, and I had to modify a line). |
