[lbpp-devel] GLBCC 0.1.0 Release

[Anthony L. <aj...@be...>]

The source code for the GLBCC 0.1.0 release is currently in CVS.  I am
uploading the GLBCC-core package as I write this so as soon as it's
done, I will make the release official.

To start out with, you ca access CVS anonymously by doing the following:

  cvs -d:pserver:ano...@cv...:/cvsroot/lbpp login
  cvs -z3 -d:pserver:ano...@cv...:/cvsroot/lbpp co
glbcc

If you want to have write access to CVS, please email me and I will give
you access (you only need write access if you are contributing large
quanities of source code).

For non-unix users, there are Windows versions of CVS clients available
all over the place.  I have used one called WinCVS that seems to work
well enough.  Just search tucows or something and I'm sure you'll find
dozens.

So, this is what is covered in this release:

1) The introduction of GLBCC, a front end that allows a user to easily
compile a .bas file in both command line and GUI mode.
2) The first release of the full compiler suite
3) Windows support
4) Linux -> Windows cross compiling support

While LBPP still exists, it is now only part of a full compiler suite
which will be referred to as GLBCC.

The new web page is going to go online officially tonight too.

Happy Holidays,
Anthony Liguori
