Hello,

I have released a new version of Seed7: seed7_05_20141116.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 type process has been added to the library process.s7i. The
  type process is used to manage child processes.
- The functions compare, hashCode, str, exitValue isAlive,
  startProcess, kill and waitFor have been added to process.s7i.
- Support for the actions CMD_PIPE2, CMD_PTY and CMD_START_PROCESS
  has been removed from interpreter and compiler.
- Support for the actions PCS_CMP, PCS_CPY, PCS_EQ, PCS_EXIT_VALUE,
  PCS_HASHCODE, PCS_IS_ALIVE, PCS_KILL, PCS_NE, PCS_PIPE, PCS_PTY,
  PCS_START, PCS_STR, PCS_VALUE and PCS_WAIT_FOR has been added to
  interpreter and compiler.
- The files pcs_rtl.c, pcs_rtl.h, pcs_unx.c, pcs_win.c, pcs_drv.h,
  pcslib.c, pcslib.h and pcs_act.s7i have been added.
- The functions freeArgVector, genArgVector have been moved from
  cmd_unx.c to pcs_unx.c.
- The function prepareCommandLine has been moved from cmd_win.c to
  pcs_win.c.
- The makefiles have been improved to consider the files necessary
  for process support.

Regards,
Thomas Mertes
