I have just uploaded two files to atari.archive: newsozo1.zoo,newdlibs.arc newsozo1.zoo contains the same files as sozobon.zoo (in the languages directory) but the binaries have been recompiled using a fixed dlibs.a which, with the source of the fixed .o files, is contained in newdlibs.arc. (You only need that if you want a complete source for dlibs). You'll want to know the improvements I suppose: o All programs compiled under and including the compiler do not crash when spawned from gemini/mupfel or monitors such as monst. o The optimizer has been fixed (again!). This time every bit of C source I have compiles with the -O option, including microemacs 3.10. o All published mods to dlibs.a have been performed. More detailed information on the changes can be found in the readme files in the respective files. It really is worth uploading this if you use sozobon. Leigh Brown. Leigh Brown.

We're working on the next official release of Sozobon C and hope to release it in the near future. We really appreciate all the work that people like Leigh have put into the compiler. We don't have access to all the hardware/software combinations that people are using, so fixes like these are a tremendous help. We'd like to incorporate all the fixes and improvements that people have made, as well as some of our own (long identifiers, for one). If you've made bug fixes or added features, please send them to me via email or disk. We've had trouble reaching some of the archive servers, so please send us your fixes even if they are available on a server somewhere. If you send your changes by disk, send it to: Tony Andrews 4704 Berkshire Ct. Boulder, CO 80301 USA I can't promise a response to each message, but we'll do our best to incorporate your changes in the release. Thanks again for your work! -- Tony Andrews uunet!cs.utexas.edu!ico!onecom!raid5!tony Array Technology Corp. 4775 Walnut St., Suite B Boulder, Colorado 80301 USA
