The McCLIM developers are happy to release version 0.9.6 of McCLIM,
code-named "St. George's Day".
This release includes several bug and specification compliance fixes, as
well as improvements to the anti-aliased text drawing facility and to
the Drei text editing substrate.
When testing this release, we found that it works on these implementations:
* SBCL
* CMUCL 19d
* Clozure CL 1.2 (RC 1)
* CLISP 2.41 (requires "Telent" CLX)
* Allegro Common Lisp 8.1 in ANSI Mode
For compatibility with Mac OS X 10.5 "Leopard", please see the included
release notes.
Get the tarball at
<http://common-lisp.net/project/mcclim/downloads/mcclim-0.9.6.tar.gz>.
Alternatively, you can install McCLIM via asdf-install.
We are looking forward to your comments and bug reports. Please send
them to mcclim-devel at common-lisp.net. The list of currently known
bugs can be found at <http://trac.common-lisp.net/mcclim/report/1>.
Have fun using McCLIM,
The McCLIM developers.
RELEASE NOTES FOR McCLIM 0.9.6, "St. George's Day":
Compatibility
=============
This release was tested and found to work on the following
implementations:
* SBCL
* CMUCL 19d
* Clozure CL 1.2 (RC 1)
* CLISP 2.41 (requires "Telent" CLX)
* Allegro Common Lisp 8.1 in ANSI Mode
McCLIM currently does not support lisps with case-sensitive
readers (Allegro CL "modern mode" and lower-case Scieneer CL).
To run McCLIM on Mac OS X 10.5, it is currently necessary to pass
an explicit DISPLAY argument to work around incompatibility between
Leopard's X11 auto-start facility and CLX.
Changes in mcclim-0.9.6 "St. George's Day" relative to 0.9.5:
==============================================================
From the NEWS file:
* New extension: mcclim-truetype: provides a 100% lisp path for
AA fonts with CLX using cl-vectors and zpb-ttf, as an alternative
to mcclim-freetype.
* Improvement: Faster drawing and AA text rendering. AA text requires
a fix to the Xrender support of CLX, available in Christophe Rhodes's
current CLX distribution from darcs.
* Improvement: Look up arbitrary truetype fonts by name via fontconfig.
* Drei improvements
** New redisplay engine that is faster and has more features.
** Support for "views" concept.
** Support for modes a la Emacs "mini-modes".
** Improvement: Goal-columns for line movement.
** Improvement: More Emacs-like expression movement for Lisp syntax.
** Bug fix: Input prompting now works for directly recursive calls to
ACCEPT.
* Specification compliance: READ-BITMAP-FILE and
MAKE-PATTERN-FROM-BITMAP-FILE from CLIM 2.2. Includes new example
program, IMAGE-VIEWER.
* Specification compliance: The :inherit-menu keyword argument to
DEFINE-COMMAND-TABLE and MAKE-COMMAND-TABLE is now implemented with
CLIM 2.2 semantics. The :keystrokes value is not handled yet.
* Specification compliance: :PRINTER functions for MENU-CHOOSE are
now called with the menu item, not the display object.
* Bug fix: ESA's help commands are better at finding bindings and
describing them
* Bug fix: Some missing methods and functions have been implemented
for the Null backend, allowing headless operation for many
applications.
* Bug fix: correct computation of bounding rectangle after
clear-output-record and recompute-extent-for-new-child.
* Bug fix: label panes no longer have a restrictive maximum width.
* Bug fix: ellipses with a zero radius no longer cause errors.
* Bug fix: bezier drawing in CLIM-FIG less likely to cause errors.
* Bug fix: restored somewhat working undo in CLIM-FIG.

Posting was already restricted to list members but .*(a)common-lisp.net
was considered a member by default.
I removed this from this list and all the other ones.

And I thought that if SBCL's compiler allows it, it must be
ANSI-compliant... :)
Anyway, I've changed the offending LOOP slightly to appease ECL.

Thanks again. And I've finally added this to the "official" RDNZL
documentation. I also added links to Matthews's DataGridView
examples. No code changes, though.
