GvRng, which stands for GvR Next Generation, is a redesign of the original gvr to make it easier to maintain and more stable then the old one.
From a users point of view the biggest change is that GvRng uses GTK as it's GUI and GTK Sourceview as the world and program editor.
The latest version is 1.4.
The drawback is that GvRng is no longer Windows compatible.
Window users can use the old gvr which is based on wxPython.
There are plans to create a Windows frontend for GvRng.

Moving in the direction of the internationalization of GvR, language support has been added for Dutch. More languages are on the way.

Also, the numerous Windows bugs have now been fixed making GvR truly cross platform. Download the new release now -> https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=85427

The Linux version is in good order but the windows port has some known issues that appear to be a result of wxPython. If anyone has the time to help us with this, drop us a line.
