Main features:
- Several Get methods for getting data
- Several Set methods for setting data
- Append methods for dealing with arrays
- Parent/child structure patterned after the FolderItem class.
Enhancements:

REALbasic 2009.4.0.0 is designed to be an innovative and efficient utility which can help users create software faster and enjoy increased productivity.

REALbasic is a rapid application development (RAD) environment that provides developers a marked increase in productivity over other cross-platform development tools. REALbasic includes drag-and-drop capability to enable you to quickly create a user interface design, then incorporate the code behind it to add power and functionality.

Benefits:

• Migrate Visual Basic applications to Linux and Mac OS X: REALbasic is highly compatible with Visual Basic, so Visual Basic developers are productive very quickly with REALbasic. REALbasic also comes with a utility to help convert Visual Basic projects to REALbasic where they can be compiled for Windows, Mac, even Linux -- with the click of a checkbox.
  
• Create native cross-platform software: REALbasic runs on and creates software for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux, all from a single set of source code. REALbasic incorporates platform-specific intelligence, like user interface widgets, so software created with REALbasic looks and feels native, regardless of the development platform you created it on.
  
• Create powerful database applications: Build powerful database applications with REALbasic's built-in REAL SQL Database, based on the SQLite public domain database engine. Connect to external multi-user database engines using REALbasic Professional Edition.

GetAlias is a REALbasic plugin that allows selection of aliases in a file dialog.
It returns a FolderItem to the alias itself.

The package includes a sample REALbasic 2 project.

BasicHTTP is a REALbasic class implementing the HTTP protocol. HTTP is the protocol used on the web.Ive written this class because I feel the existing class, Dan Vanderkams wonderful http Socket, has become outdated.BasicHTTP duplicates virtually all of httpSockets functionality, adds some new features, and is considerably easier to use.

Color Select Cell is a canvas based color selection cell control for REALbasic.
Uses system calls to draw a properly themed button.

ProgressBar Bug-Fix 1.0r1 is an impressive and unique bug fix which removes a limitation of REALbasics ProgressBar, the Maximum and Value limit of 32767.

This serious bug occurs, if you use a value greater than 32767 for the ProgressBar properties Maximum and/or Value. The RB Developer Manual for REALbasic 3.1 says you can use any value which is an integer. This is obvious false. The embedded routines in this bug fix do a translation of any number you provide to the proportional right value.
