Laser Spot Test
Preform has a "diagnostic" mode which can be accessed by adding -diagnostic as a command line parameter, either running it from the command window, or by adding it into windows shortcut properties. This adds an extra menu to preform

So I have all of the PreForm's from 0.8.0 onward. I uploaded that one and saw MongerDesigns uploaded a couple of others. Do we want them all, or just the milestone changes?

we only have 2GB of storage on this wiki - so files that are megabytes in size will quickly take us over the limit. David created that page and I've asked him to move the files to external hosts and replace them with links. I'll download MD's versions now put them on google drive and put the links on this page.

sorry - that's a yes, might as well if you have time and an external host for the files

Sorry about that Kevin. Forgot about the storage limit.

If still needed, we have a lot (!!) of webspace available, both on servers in the US and Germany - I can offer to place all current and previous versions on that webspace!
I also vote for having all the versions available for download (there aren't that many currently).

The 0.8.3 version is an incomplete file upload. Can someone provide a full version?
Please provide any other available versions.

It would be nice if we could add some notes regarding each version, for example which version added what feature, or which version introduced new problems, etc.
