Hello,

I have released a new version of Seed7: seed7_05_20120205.tgz
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:
- FAQ answers, explaining call-by-name and how it is implemented in
  Seed7, were added.
- The "ftpserv.sd7" example program was improved to work with
  various ftp client programs.
- The speed of the function 'socLineRead' in "soc_rtl.c" was
  improved (this function implements getln() for sockets).
- The Unicode support of the "ftp.s7i" library and the "ftp7.sd7"
  example program was improved.
- Documentation comments were improved in "poll.s7i" and
  "osfiles.s7i".
- The files "pol_sel.c" and "pol_unx.c" were improved to use the
  const qualifier.
- The compiler (comp.sd7) was improved to generate optimized code
  for the actions "STR_ELEMCPY" and "STR_POSCPY" (which were used
  by the @:= operator).
- Testcases for the @:= operator were added to "chkstr.sd7".
- The program "chkccomp.c" was changed to include "version.h" and
  to define OS_OFF_T_SIZE. This way "chkccomp.c" can use the macro
  definitions for os_off_t, TURN_OFF_FP_EXCEPTIONS and
  DEFINE_MATHERR_FUNCTION from "version.h" instead of "chkccomp.h".
- The files "cmd_rtl.c" and "fil_rtl.c" were changed to use the
  macro OS_OFF_T_SIZE.
- In "osfiles.s7i" the type 'fileType' was introduced as result type
  for 'fileType' and 'fileTypeSL'.
- The function 'str' for the type 'fileMode' was improved in
  "osfiles.s7i".
- The number of calls of fileno() was reduced in "con_cap.c",
  "con_tcp.c", "kbd_inf.c" and "kbd_poll.c".
- Result variables were renamed in "external_file.s7i", "ftp.s7i",
  "osfiles.s7i", "shell.s7i", "socket.s7i", "string.s7i", "tar.s7i",
  "utf16.s7i", "utf8.s7i" and "ftpserv.sd7".

Greetings Thomas Mertes
