ANNOUNCE: Win95 IDE v0.5

ANNOUNCE: Win95 IDE v0.5

[John English]

Version 0.5 of my Windows 95 IDE for GNAT is now available via my home
page (see sig below) or ftp://ftp.brighton.ac.uk/pub/je/gnide05.zip.

What's new since 0.3:
 * MRU list of recent files on the File menu
 * List of open windows on the Window menu
 * Single-level undo in editor windows
 * Improved error reporting
 * New Tools menu includes Reformat (not yet implemented)
   and Generate Body to generate a skeletal package body
   from the package specification in the current window

I whould like to try this IDE.
I already tried to download it when I saw the previous announcements but I
can not
access the gide05.zip file at the specified location.
Was anybody else able to download it ??

No problem here. Maybe you could try the IP address directly.
This is what our nameserver says right now:

Name:    saturn.bton.ac.uk
Address:  192.173.128.27
Aliases:  ftp.brighton.ac.uk

Thanks, Andrew. I've talked to our system administrator, and
apparently some DNS tables somewhere got in a tangle (not ours,
he claims!) but it's (allegedly) OK now.

Oops, I screwed up and put a working (i.e. non-working!) development
version from yesterday on the FTP site by mistake. If you downloaded
a copy of gnide05.zip before 00:30 GMT on 14 Nov 1996, chuck it and
download another copy. Apologies (grovel, grovel)...

File size was 219581 bytes in the bad version, whereas the correct
version is 220742 bytes.  This will hopefully only affect a few
people (mainly someone called "mozilla@" who downloaded several
copies in quick succession, according to our FTP logs :-)

Ooops, that should be 220823 bytes. It's a bad night, I'm off to bed.
It's either my eyesight or my brain, but either way I'd better quit
before I screw up any more.
