FTLC stands for "finite time lines and circles". The program creates timelines based on user input of events in time and/or spans of time. Events and spans may be categorized (1 level depth).

FTLCtimelines has been designed to hopefully deal with undiscovered internal problems gracefully under most conditions.

Limitations:
Demo version will save a maximum of 20 event and 20 span records,5 notes, 25 media files, and can either merge files or import iCal files only once per running of the program.
A given Database file can only be opened for 25 days and has a few other limitations.

What's New:
Long BC dates in database lists not sorted correctly, fixed.
Database's trash couldn't be emptied sometimes, fixed.
Event and Span Lists were not copying to clipboard correctly when rows selected: fixed.
Recent files may be individually removed (global settings > records tab).
Secondary sort on some listboxes for some columns: see program help (general) for which and when (i.e. primary sort column entries held fixed while second column sorted).
Records' listboxes (events and spans): copy for table (menu item), (i.e. tab delimited column fields, new line for rows): for fit in other programs' tables (fit dependent on other program).
Records listboxes (events and spans) and search result list rows have mild coloring by main sort for easier viewing.
Database descriptive text window is now a drawer (to better associate it with its parent window). (note: control click window to reposition). New: Search (memory, recent files, database, dragged FTLC file or folder [for FTLC files]) in record names and descriptive text (whole word or not).
