Hi 4tH-ers!
I looked at the calendar and saw it was time to wrap things up and
start for a new release. This time you won't find a lot of new
features and those that are included are kind of specialist. It's no
surprise, because 4tH is quite mature now, so one runs into less and
less things that one is missing.
Most wordsets are implemented, most C features (e.g. structures,
unions, enumerations, binary strings) so within the design boundaries
we're doing not so bad.
But this release does fix several bugs, which were introduced in
v3.62.0. Most are obscure, that's why you probably didn't run into
them, but bugs nontheless.
Sure, I admit, I wasted a lot of time on things that weren't in the
let's say public interest, but hey, if you're really worried about
that I'm happy to include your code ;-)
CSV is much better implemented though and we got an efficient multi-
buffer BLOCK implementation. There's also simple garbage collection
and a virtual memory driver.
And last, but not least, there is experimental Android 2.2 (Froyo)
support - thanks to Zbiggy!
Yes, I've done better - but I've certainly done worse. There is still
some documenting to do and I need to sleep as well ;-)
Goodnight!

I would assume that if 4tH runs.on Android 2.2 that it also will work with most recent 4.2.2 on Nexus 7?
By the way, Nexus 7 is a SWEET low-cost Android tablet. Great screen resolution and brightness and excellent battery life.

Hi Ron!
Well, I have no reason to assume it wouldn't, but the only way to find
really out is to buy one and try it! I really rely on the community for
that, because I think no one would try to imply that for a maintainer of a
donotion-less project I have to buy all these things myself ;-)
I'd love to know, of course!
