GCstar project is an application for managing your collections. Detailed information on each item can be automatically retrieved from the internet and you can store additional data, such as the location or who you've lent it to. You may also search and filter your collection by many criteria.

GCstar can be used on any operating systems on which gtk2-perl is available. It has primarily been tested on GNU/Linux and Microsoft Windows.

Requirements:

· GTK+ >= 2.4.x
· Perl
· Gtk2-Perl

What's New in This Release:

* Default models can be modified through the graphical user interface
to add some user-defined fields. These fields will be in separate tabs
(one for each group) or in expanders depending on the kind of panel used.
These additional fields are stored in the collection itself to let users
share it between different machines/systems.

* New default model to manage episodes of TV shows.

* New translations
- Ukrainian translation added thanks to Ailandar.
- Hungarian translation added thanks to Takács László Krisztián.
- Greek translation added thanks to Dimitri Glentadakis.

layout.
