Dear All,

We are happy to announce a new edition
of the Dogelog player:

- Quasi-Parallel Loader:
   The Prolog text loader is now task aware.
Although tasks are only quasi-parallel, issues
of mutex might appear, which have been solved
by using the meta call shield/1 which temporarly
disables auto-yield. Back traces showing the
current file loading chain are now task local.

- Binary Files:
   As before the target platforms JavaScript
nodeJS, Python and Java support file system
access. A new open option type/1 has been added,
which can have the values 'text' or 'binary' and
which defaults to 'text'. 'binary' is simply
treated as 'text' with latin1 encoding instead of utf8.

- Binary HTTP:
   To give the benefit of a simple binary
treatment to the HTTP protocol as well, i.e. no
extra get_byte/[1,2] builtins and no extra byte
array datatype, since codes and atoms can be used
as before, we braught the type/1 option to the
APIs of the HTTP clients and the HTTP servers.

Have Fun!
