[Hamlib-developer] Hamlib 1.1.1 released

[Stephane F. <f4...@fr...>]

Good news everyone!

Hamlib-1.1.1 has been released. This version controls more radios,
with an extended API to cover the capabilities commonly found on latest
rigs.

Event though it's still alpha, various applications can already make use of it 
(e.g. band scope, psk31 AFC, doppler compensation, early memory mgmt, etc.)
See <http://sourceforge.net/projects/hamlib> for details. 

The library has been tested against FT747, FT847 (Yaesu CAT) and IC706MkIIG
(CI-V) rigs. Backends exists for TS-870S (Kenwood CAT), AR-8200 (AOR), 
WR-1550 (LiNRADiO) and PCR-1000 (PCR).
Current status can be found at http://hamlib.sourceforge.net/hamlibsupport.html

Plan for 1.1.2:
* Enter every models of supported backends: Icom, Kenwood, AOR, WiNRADiO, PCR
* start support for new backends where doc available (Alinco, TenTec, ...)
* shared module rework: simpler and better portability among OSes
* extend API as needed
* tcl/tk wrapper, Python? Perl?

Please, test it out and report to ham...@li...
