Hi guys,

libixp 0.4 is now available at http://suckless.org/download/libixp-0.4.tar.gz
A brief summary of changes since 0.2:
- Added xwrite command to ixpc (ixpc xwrite /foo hello world <=> echo
-n hello world|ixpc write /foo).
- Fixed bug preventing the walking of directories 4 deep.
- New API (nice detail, I know - presumably this one is simpler?).
- Threading support (pthreads, libtask, rubythreads).
- Miscellaneous bug fixes.

Note that the test case is not currently in a usable state out of the
box - it requires some server setup which I didn't figure out.

For those of you who are wondering who this sqweek guy is releasing a
package that he has never contributed to with his first post to a
mailing list: I've fixed some wmii bugs recently and intend to make a
new release, but wmii has depended on libixp newer than 0.2 for some
time so a stable libixp is a prerequisite there. As such, I'm not too
familiar with the libixp codebase and can only apologise for the poor
quality of the changelog. I'm far less familiar with 9p than I'd like
to be aswell, but I'll do what I can to address any issues you
encounter with 0.4.
