For those of you not already on the PST mailing 
list.  This announcement refers to 
EP2.0.10.242.  Note that this release allows for 
installation and use of multiple Subject Station 
versions, so that we can continue to run 
experiments made with older versions while making 
new experiments using the new version.

>The Production Release of E-Prime 2.0 offers 
>many new features that will enhance the user 
>experience and provide valuable tools for experiment design including:
>
>    * Experiment Advisor
>    * Enhancements to script language (ScriptSense, AttribSense)
>    * Task Events
>    * Multiple Correct Answers
>    * Auto Response
>    * Enhanced Joystick Support

>What's New:
>
>* Some new features are only available in E-Prime 2.0 Professional.
>New Feature Description
>Multiple Instances of E-Studio Multiple 
>instances of the E-Studio application can be open simultaneously.
>Copy and Paste Objects between Experiments Exact 
>copies of objects may be created between experiments.
>ScriptSense&#153* Authoring and editing E-Basic 
>script is enhanced with ScriptSense&#153, a 
>code-completion and editing tool. 
>ScriptSense&#153 is similar to Microsoft’s 
>Intellisense&#153 system; both systems provide 
>automatic completion of commands and 
>context-sensitive information about available coding elements.
>AttribSense&#153* AttribSense&#153 is an 
>auto-completion tool that is enabled on a Text 
>or Slide object where references can be made to 
>attributes using the [AttribName] notation.
>Toolbox Defaults* Ability to customize the 
>default properties of objects when they are 
>added to the experiment from the Toolbox.
>MovieDisplay Object Supports the presentation of 
>pre-recorded digital video in DivX, XVid, 
>MPEG-1, MPEG-2, MPEG-4, H-264, WMV formats using 
>the MovieDisplay object and SlideMovie sub-object.
>SoundIn Object The SoundIn object and 
>SlideSoundIn sub-object are used to record vocal 
>responses from the subject in the WAV format.
>PackageFile Editor* The PackageFile Editor 
>application can be used to create and modify 
>package files – reusable blocks of E-Basic 
>script that are added to E-Primme experiments via the PackageCall object.
>StartupInfo Editor* The StartupInfo Editor 
>application can be used to create and modify 
>StartupInfo files – XMLbased documents used to 
>load name/value pairs into the Context object of an experiment.
>Experiment Advisor* The Experiment Advisor 
>provides the ability to detect design and timing 
>errors in E-Studio and E-Run. In addition, 
>statistics on the OnsetToOnsetTime, OnsetDelay, 
>and LoadTime of objects can be reported.
>Auto Response* Auto Response enables E-Prime 2.0 
>to automatically provide a response to any 
>objects which require the subject to make a keyboard response.
>
>
>Enhanced Functionality Description
>Support for Multiple Video Displays* 
>Presentation of stimuli on multiple video displays
>Support for UNICODE and International Fonts 
>Presentation of UNICODE and international fonts
>Support for Additional Image Formats 
>Presentation of image files in multiple formats 
>(BMP, JPG, JPEG, GIF, PNG, TIF, TIFF, EMF, WMF)
>Procedure.GenerateLabels Property E-Prime 2.0 
>introduces the Procedure.GenerateLabels 
>property. This allows for a generic mechanism 
>for an experiment author to jump to different portions of a trial.
>Enhanced Sound Support E-Prime 2.0 introduces 
>the ability to choose the underlying API used to 
>assist with talking to sound hardware when run during an experiment.
>Stretch Mode E-Prime 2.0 offers additional 
>choices on how to render image and movie 
>components when using the Stretch property.
>New List sampling randomization feature E-Prime 
>2.0 includes a new option that applies when 
>sampling stimuli from a List Object: No repeat randomization.
>Conditional Exit* E-Prime 2.0 Professional 
>introduces the use of the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace key 
>sequence to invoke Conditional Exit. When 
>invoked, the currently running object will exit.
>Hyperlinks for output files* E-Prime 2.0 
>Professional provides the ability to view any 
>output files that are created by the experiment. 
>In addition, the files can be accessed by simply 
>clicking on their hyperlink in Generate Window.
>Customized DataFileName* Customization of the data file name
>Invalid Version Protection E-Prime 2.0 
>introduces the ability to protect the runtime 
>from extensions that are deemed too old or new 
>for the currently running system.
>
>
>New Timing Options Description
>Task Events* Task Events expands the E-Prime 2.0 
>Professional synchronization capabilities by 
>offering a wide variety of options to take 
>action when specific time critical events occur during an experiment.
>PreRelease default to “same as duration† The 
>default for PreRelease has been changed to 
>“same as duration† which results in the 
>object passing its entire duration to be absorbed by the next object.
>DisplayDevice.FlippingEnabled Display back 
>buffer flipping is enabled by default for new experiments.
>RefreshAlignment RefreshAlignment is the ability 
>for the display scheduling in E-Prime to start 
>an object early if the next refresh is just 
>prior to the next target onset time of an object.
>Procedure.GenerateLabels Property When set to 
>Yes (default), the Procedure will generate the 
>Procedure_Start, Procedure_ Timeline_Start, 
>Procedure_Timeline_Finish, and Procedure_Finish E-Basic script labels.
>Clock GUI The ability to choose from available clocks via the E-Studio GUI.
>Stop After Mode Stop After Mode can be used in 
>conjunction with PreRelease and Stop After to 
>obtain the expected experiment performance.
>Object.GeneratePreRun and Object.
>GeneratePostRun Property The GeneratePreRun and 
>GeneratePostRun properties provide the benefit 
>of having all of the objects load their 
>properties at a non- time critical portion of an experiment.
>InputMask.TimeLimit “end of proc† option To 
>avoid the side effects of choosing “same as 
>duration† or “infinite† for the Time Limit 
>property of an input mask, an end of procedure 
>option is available for InputMask to terminate 
>the input mask at the end of the current procedure.
