From: "Paul A. Steckler" <steck@cs.rice.edu> To: "Paul A. Steckler" <steck@cs.rice.edu> Date: Wed, 6 Sep 2000 12:09:19 -0500 Subject: PLT DrScheme v103 released PLT DrScheme v103 is available now at http://www.cs.rice.edu/CS/PLT/packages/drscheme/ The most visible improvements are: - Cut-and-paste keybindings fixed - Windows keypad bug fixed - DrScheme is more responsive to keystrokes (noticeable on slower machines) - Projects now have platform-independent project-relative filenames DrScheme and MzScheme v103 binaries and sources are available in Linux RPM format. [N.B.: We accidentally sent out a version on Tuesday, Sept. 5th, in which the Windows keypad bug was not completely fixed. If you downloaded that version, you may want to download again. In the fixed version, the file plt/MrEd.exe is dated September 6, 2000. Our apologies for any inconvenience.] Beginning with this release, we have discontinued binary executable distributions for most Unix variants. Linux (x86) and Solaris (Sparc) binaries are still available, but AIX, BeOS, FreeBSD, Linux (PPC), HP/UX, OSF/1, and Irix binaries are no longer available. This change is made possible by improved compilation scripts, so that compiling DrScheme from source is relatively easy. The source code for DrScheme is available from the same download page as the pre-built binaries. As usual, there are many minor changes and bug fixes. Details are provided in the release notes. In Help Desk, see Scheme|Release Information|Release Notes; in the distribution, see plt/notes/drscheme/HISTORY.
