~ Added ability to process a specific directory, and to display some other page when finished.
~ Released the source code.

Version 1.1 Feb, 2002

~ Improved page processing speed.
~ Scripts inside element names are evaluated properly.
~ Build these docs!

Version 1.0 Jan, 2001

Never released.
~ Enable key feature: open the page elements to direct access by scripts. (Earlier versions required passing the element in the script args.)

Version 0.9 May, 2001

Never released.
~ Rebuild the application in Python from the ground up.
~ Enabled hierarchical element storage so that the elements of each directory are read only once, resulting in a vast speed improvement. (The Java implementation processed the entire hierarchy once for each page processed.)
~ All essential functionality working well.

Version 0.5 Oct, 2000

Never released.
~ The essential Elements functionality working well.
~ The entire application written in Java. The intention was to open a link to the Python scripting environment so that Java did the application processing and Python did the script processing.
