Instant.EXE 3.0 introduces the possibilitiy to create applications with several windows (multiwindow). You can choose between creating one main window with dependant child windows, or even several totally independent windows.
You can now include all ressources your application depends on directly into the executable. Images, icons, even video- and audiofiles are built into the .exe file, so that all you have to distribute is ONE file (plus the runtime-environement, if necessary). The files needed to use PlugIn-functionalities can also be included!
To make bug-hunting and error-handling less of a hassle, you can now specify a subroutine to be called when an error occurs! Information concerning Error-code, -description, -time, -line and much more is available from variables. Of course, you can specify in the subroutine what to do when an error occurs.
