Release 0.74 of es



[posted for Paul & Byron]
This is release 0.74 of es.  This is a not quite feature complete
release, but it's getting close; see the file TODO for details on
what remains to be done.  We hope to release 0.8 within the next
10 days.  See the file CHANGES for what's been changed since the
last distribution.

This release has been tested (though not very thoroughly) on the
following machine/compiler combinations:

	NeXT OS2.1, gcc 1.36
	Sparc, SunOS 4.1.2, gcc 1.39
	Sun3, SunOS 4.0.3, gcc 1.37.1
	IBM RS/6000, AIX 3.2, native compiler
	Digital Alpha AXP, OSF/1 T1.2-2, native compiler
	DECstation 5000, Ultrix, gcc 1.39

Please tell us of any other machines which es works correctly on.

One bug to be aware of is that the interaction between control-c
and the new interpreter loops is somewhat buggy.  After you hit a
control-c, you may want to type return a couple of times.  This
will be fixed in the next release.

As usual, please send bug reports to

	haahr@adobe.com
	byron@netapp.com

or to the es mailing list

	es@hawkwind.utcs.toronto.edu
