ANN: package releases

[Albert Graef]

Hi,

I've just updated the following packages, so that they already install
their html documentation in the appropriate place for the new online
documentation system in the forthcoming Pure 0.19:

http://pure-lang.googlecode.com/files/pd-pure-0.5.tar.gz
http://pure-lang.googlecode.com/files/pure-ffi-0.5.tar.gz
http://pure-lang.googlecode.com/files/pure-odbc-0.2.tar.gz

Moreover, I've updated the pure-gen package so that it includes the
latest fixes from svn. There's also a new 'make check' target which does
a quick test of dump-ast and pure-gen itself.

http://pure-lang.googlecode.com/files/pure-gen-0.4.tar.gz

I'm also about to release the brandnew pure-doc and pure-xml packages,
probably tomorrow after I had a chance to take them for a whirl on
Windows. The Pure 0.19 release is also imminent, but might take a few
days, since I'm still working on the library docs.

Cheers,
Albert

Ok, these are now up at:
http://pure-lang.googlecode.com/files/pure-doc-0.1.tar.gz
http://pure-lang.googlecode.com/files/pure-xml-0.1.tar.gz

pure-doc is Pure's new source documentation/literate programming
utility, online documentation is available here:
http://pure-lang.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/pure-doc/pure-doc.html

pure-xml is the new XML/XSLT interface (port of the Q XML module),
documentation here:
http://pure-lang.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/pure-xml/pure-xml.html

Enjoy! :)

Ok, after slaving away for days on end, the new library manual is
reasonably complete now, so that I can finally do a release. You can
find the good stuff here:

http://pure-lang.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/pure/purelib.html

Well, if nothing else it should at least have an entry for every
standard library function that deserves mentioning. ;-)

Jiri, you might wish to take a look at the Container Types section,
please let me know if there's anything I botched while reformatting the
comments for the docutils processing.

Eddie, there's still quite a few places where the descriptions are
rather sketchy, and we desperately need more examples, so you're invited
to have a look at that. :) But please let me first do the release
(probably tomorrow), I don't want to hold back 0.19 any longer. Ok?

Wow! That's a lot of work Albert! I'll take a look ASAP.
