File Release Notes and Changelog
Release Name: 0.21
Notes: These are LNG binaries precompiled for most common configurations. C128 version works only on 80 column screen, boot it using: RUN"LOADER C64 versions can be booted using LOAD"FASTLOADER",8 and RUN. Files from IDE64 floppy should be copied to LNG work directory on IDE64, then execute APPS.C64, CORE.C64, HELP.C64 and SCRIPTS.C64 to extract LNG (you can remove *.C64 afterwards). Then, LNG can be booted by LOAD"IDE64LOADER",12. Note that IDE64 disk must be set to #12. Note also that the default device is set to /ide64. You can change it by using e.g. "env PWD=/disk8". Have fun!
