Pman 2.6
Improvements and New Features

Some maintenance work to replace deprecated guard expressions etc. somehow grew into a larger rewrite of parts of the Pman code, fixing some of the more blatant errors and removing unused code.

The default font has been changed, so now the entire text on buttons etc. should be visible on most platforms.

Saving and restoring trace options to/from file now works.

Selecting different sets of processes to hide/view should now work in a more consistent and logical way.

It is now possible to select more than one module or process to hide/show.
