Download older versions of Tinderbox?

Q & A - getting started with Tinderbox
1

Hi,

where do I find older versions of the Tinderbox app for download?
The reason is that I upgraded to TBX 9.2 and find that a stamp I use no longer works.
(It is the stamp I describe in Search and replace (with RegEx) for each paragraph in $Text? - #23 by abusch).
Since the only real change I made since last using it was upgrading from TBX 9.1 to 9.2, I thought I should check with the previous version.
Any ideas whether and if so, where I can find the old .dmg files?
Thanks for your help!

The download link is in the form http://www.eastgate.com/download/tbxNnn.dmg

So for v9.2.0 is it ‘tbx920.dmg’, for v9.1.0 ‘tbx910.dmg’, etc.

So this should download v9.1.0: http://www.eastgate.com/download/tbx910.dmg

To you have a TBX that shows the problem and an expanation of the failure. IOW, what you expect and what you get. The post you link to doesn’t have that and I notice a later post in the thread suggesting a fix. Did you try that fix?

Thanks, Mark! I’ll double check.

Mark - no difference when I use TBX 9.1, so that’s not the cause.
However, I copied both the stamp and the note in question to a differente Tinderbox file, and there it works! So - I must dig somewhere else, but the problem seems to be in my file, NOT in Tinderbox.

Look for different actions, e.g. agent/rule/edict/stamp/onAdd/Smart adornment acting against one another. Easily done, sometimes less easily found! :slight_smile:

At least it’s working in the new file.

(Found the urls via an AppleScript that increments the version number and wget --spider)
