Searching for old TeXShop versions and their source code

Post by mhorn »

Hi there,

I am currently searching for the source code of old(er) TeXShop versions. The goal is to build a source code repository from them, to help with future TeXShop development, and also to preserve this bit of history. So, I am looking for old texshopsource.zip files.

To see my current progress, and in particular which versions I already have collected, look here:
https://github.com/TeXShop/TeXShop/releases

If you have any versions not listed there, I'd greatly appreciate if you let me know (e.g. by replying to this message), we can then figure out a way to transfer the files.

In addition, I am also looking for the corresponding "official" texshop.zip files, containing the compiled TeXShop.app (and other files). Though these are less important to me.


Note: Richard Koch, the principal author of TeXShop, is aware of my search, and promised to dig out old files, but he is rather busy with other things, so this can take some time, and in addition, he may not have everything archived, so I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask here, too ;-).
