Atronix publishes REBOL 3 with GUI for Linux

[Peter W A Wood]

In case you missed it, David Den Haring made the following exciting announcement in another forum:

We have published our REBOL 3 View builds for Linux and Windows at http://atronixengineering.com/downloads.html. There is full Linux support for graphics and the clipboard as well as a number of bug fixes in the core interpreter.

This is the result of our collaboration with Saphirion since last summer. Our source code has also been pushed to the Saphirion repository to be tested and included in their own future releases.

I would like to personally thank Shixin Zeng (at Atronix) who did the heavy lifting (i.e. C programming) and all of the folks at Saphirion who gave us access to their repository and provided much support along the way.

Please note that we are preparing REBOL 3 for commercial use later this year, so we have removed all Alpha badging, cleaned up the splash screen and pointed the upgrade and demo functions to the Atronix website. The upgrade function is the best way to check for and download the latest Atronix release.

Please send comments and bug reports to re...@atronixengineering.com.

Interresting. I had missed it. Trying it out now, I get this:
boo:~/Desktop/rebol-view$ ./r3 -v
REBOL 3 3.0.0.4.40

... not very elegant, maybe?
