    Warning:If you are using AppleScripts to trigger other software from the GPICommander application, there is a major change in the way AppleScripts should be written. Now the test to check if and input is on or off, is done using a BOOLEAN (so something like "if value is true then"). So after installing this version you will have to rewrite your scripts. There is no change if you are using the direct intergation in our applications, or if you control the GPICommander application with AppleScripts.

  • In AppleScript, the test to see if an input is on or off now uses a BOOLEAN. This provides much more consistent results.
