Hello,

I have released a new version of Seed7: seed7_05_20120703.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:
- The manual was improved to contain more links and to use more
  coloring.
- Parameter names were added to function definitions in the
  libraries array.s7i, integer.s7i, bigint.s7i, float.s7i, keybd.s7i,
  bitsetof.s7i, idxarray.s7i, boolean.s7i, hashsetof.s7i, socket.s7i,
  char.s7i, file.s7i, bitset.s7i, poll.s7i, sockbase.s7i and
  string.s7i .
- Documentation comments were improved in the libraries string.s7i,
  poll.s7i and progs.s7i .
- The new libraries "bstring.s7i" and "category.s7i" were added. The
  contents of this libraries were extracted from the "progs.s7i"
  library.
- Interpreter and compiler were improved to explain the option -?.

Regards,
Thomas Mertes
