Agar-1.4.1 released

I am pleased to announce the immediate release of Agar-1.4.1. The               
source code and some precompiled packages are now available for                 
download at:                                                                    

        http://libagar.org/download.html                                        

Starting from this release, we will no longer be providing support              
for the Agar 1.3.x series.

Release Notes for Agar 1.4.1
----------------------------

Here are some of the most notable changes since Agar 1.4.0, in no
particular order. A wikified version of this list is available at:
http://wiki.libagar.org/wiki/Agar-1.4.1.

- Port to Xbox (thanks Michael J. Wood!).
- Widget code can now use the AG_Redraw() and AG_RedrawOn*() interfaces to
  trigger rendering. The generic event loop uses this information to avoid
  unnecessary video updates -- custom event loops should be modified to
  test for the window "dirty" flag to take advantage of this feature.
- Fixed compilation with --disable-legacy option.
- Implemented AG_SurfaceFromPNG() and AG_SurfaceFromJPEG().
- Fixed crash bug in AG_SurfaceFromSDL(); thanks trapdoor!
- Added AG_SetJPEGQuality(), to set quality used by AG_SurfaceExportJPEG().
- Merge --enable-{class,event}debug into --enable-objdebug; remove lockdebug.
- Upgrade build system to BSDBuild 2.8. Note that stale ./agar-config/ and
  ./agar-foo-config/ directories may break the build and should be removed
  before ./configure is executed.
- Fix deadlock condition with the AG_Timeout interface when timers are

Agar-1.4.0 released


I am pleased to announce the immediate release of Agar-1.4.0. The
source code and some precompiled packages are now available for
download at:

	http://libagar.org/download.html

Release Notes for Agar 1.4.0 ("Landscapes of Frozen Methane")
-------------------------------------------------------------

Here are some of the most notable changes since Agar 1.3.4, in no
particular order. A wikified version of this list is available at:
http://wiki.libagar.org/wiki/Agar-1.4.0.

This release preserves backward compatibility with Agar 1.3.4, but it is
recommended to compile Agar with the `--disable-legacy' configure option,
ensuring that existing applications are not using deprecated API calls.

- Added support for multiple native windows; rework of the low-level graphics
  and input device interfaces. As of this release, the available drivers are:
  - "glx" (GL rendering via X Window System; multiple windows)
  - "wgl" (GL rendering under Windows; multiple windows)
  - "sdlfb" (framebuffer rendering via SDL; internal WM)
  - "sdlgl" (GL rendering via SDL; internal WM)
  New drivers can also be implemented as part of an application, the driver
  API is documented in AG_Driver(3).
- Applications should now use AG_InitGraphics() to initialize the graphical
  interface. Backward compatibility is preserved, but AG_InitVideo() will
  only select among single-window graphics drivers.
- Agar can now be built without the SDL library, where the SDL graphics

source code and some precompiled packages are now available for

	http://libagar.org/download.html

Release Notes for Agar 1.3.4 (Pandemonic Incantation)
-----------------------------------------------------

Here are some of the most notable changes since Agar 1.3.3, in no
particular order. A wikified version of this list is available at:
http://wiki.libagar.org/wiki/Agar-1.3.4.

- Continued improvements to the API reference.
- Overall improved handling of out-of-memory conditions.
- Implement simpler, unified AG_Variable(3) interface at the AG_Object(3)
  level in ag_core. This renders the AG_Widget(3)-level "AG_WidgetBinding"
  and the "AG_Prop" interfaces obsolete, as well as the AG_Event(3) argument
  lists, which all used different structures and interfaces. Backwards
  compatibility is preserved.
- GUI: Implemented word-wrapping in AG_Editable(3) and AG_Textbox(3). Thanks
  to CoKinetic Systems (http://www.cokinetic.com/) for sponsoring this feature!
- Perl XS bindings improved to the level that they are now useful, thanks to
  Mat Sutcliffe!
- Continued improvements to the Ada bindings; added ada-demos/
  (thanks rothwell!)
- Remove unnecessary --disable-utf8 switch, always use Unicode.
- Removed DEV_GuiDebugger() from ag_dev library. Reimplemented a more useful
  debugging tool, AG_GuiDebugger(), in ag_gui itself.

  the FreeSG distribution (http://freesg.org/).

- CORE: Implemented AG_DSO(3) as general interface to dynamic library
  loading, and AG_LoadClass() more specifically for AG_Object classes.
- CORE: Added namespaces to Agar class specifications. Object classes can now
  be specified in "Namespace(Foo:Bar)" format.
