[gobo-eiffel-develop] New release: Gobo 3.8

[Eric B. <er...@go...>]

Hello,

A new release of Gobo is available from the usual location:

      https://sourceforge.net/projects/gobo-eiffel/

This version should work with the forthcoming release of
ISE's EiffelStudio 6.2.

In order to avoid binary file incompatibilities between
operating systems, the Gobo package does not contain executables
anymore. Instead of that, the directory $GOBO/bin contains the
C files of the Gobo Eiffel compiler which will be used by a script
to populate this directory with the binary files for your platform.
When installing the Gobo package, you will now have to run either:

      %GOBO%\install.bat msc

under Windows, or:

      $GOBO/install.sh gcc

under Unix/Linux in order to generate the binary files
of the Gobo tools in the directory $GOBO/bin.

For more details about this new release of Gobo, please
read the Readme file and the online documentation:

I updated the script in SVN.
