Hello,

I have released a new version of Seed7: seed7_05_20190919.tgz
The download is here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/seed7/files
In the Seed7 programming language new statements and operators can
be declared easily. Types are first class objects and therefore
templates/generics need no special syntax. Object orientation is used
when it brings advantages and not in places when other solutions are
more obvious.

Seed7 is covered by the GPL (and LGPL for the Seed7 runtime library).

Changelog:
- A chapter about the database abstraction API has been added to the
  manual.
- In the manual the chapters about primitive actions and about the
  foreign function interface have been improved.
- Explanations about the Seed7 installer and the download of Seed7 have
  been added to the FAQ.
- The new library ico.s7i has been added. This library supports the ICO
  image file format.
- The library browser.s7i has been improved to be more robust regarding
  network events.
- The database drivers have been improved to raise a DATABASE_ERROR,
  if the database library could not be found. The error message of the
  DATABASE_ERROR contains the name of the missing DLL respectively
  shared object library.
- Documentation comments have been improved in 85 library/include files
  (*.s7i). Wrong usages of the word "when" have been replaced by "if".
- Documentation comments have been improved in 96 C source files.
  Wrong usages of the word "when" have been replaced by "if".
- Texts in 9 Seed7 programs (*.sd7) and in a lot of documentation files
  have been improved. Wrong usages of the word "when" have been
  replaced by "if".

Regards,
Thomas Mertes
