Announce: Pre-release 2 of BlueGnu IDE for GNU C++

[kre@fim.uni-linz.ac.at]

Pre-release 2 of the BlueGnu IDE with support for GNU C++
is now available for download from our server at the
University of Linz:

  http://www.fim.uni-linz.ac.at/staff/kre/bluegnu

In the download area is a small patch consisting of two
files for updating from the first pre-release.


Changes since first pre-release
===============================

* The GNU C++ interface now works for NTFS partitions.
  The previous version could not launch the compiler
  when installed on NTFS

* Distribution is now modular. You therefore can use
  an already installed version of the GNU C++ compiler
  (should work for MinGW and cross-compilers, too,
  although this has not been tested).

  Available modules:
  - BlueGnu system (must be installed!), 1.4MB
  - GNU C++ plug-in with compiler, 10MB
  - GNU C++ plug-in for already installed compilers, 2MB
  - Oberon-2 plug-in with compiler, 2MB


Main features
=============

* Integrated development environment
  - project management with project templates
  - programmable editor with keyword highlighting,
    macros and folding
  - interfaces for compilers, editors and tools

* GNU C++ 2.7.1, ported by Cygnus Inc. for Win32 (beta 17.1)

* Oberon-2 compiler for Windows from Robinson Associates


We like to get feedback about this software. Questions,
suggestions, and bug reports are highly welcome.
