-RETRO 12 - 2017.12
+RETRO 12 - 2018.1
 
 Bug fixes:
 
-- Now builds using GCC (thanks to wuehlmaus in the IRC channel for discovering a bug related to the order of linker arguments when dealing with GCC)
-- Now builds on older Ubuntu systems with broken GNU make.
+- Fixed an issue with line endings in the Glossary's gopher server
 
 Language Improvements:
 
-- ASCII constants are now using `class:data` (reducing image size by nearly 500 cells and removing call/return overhead when used)
-- `s:with-format` now supports \_
-- Added `s:split-on-string`
-- Added `s:index-of-string`
-- Added `s:replace`
-- Added `s:tokenize`
-- Added `s:tokenize-on-string`
+- `s:with-format` now handles `\r`
 
 Interfaces:
 
-- *RRE* has significant improvements.
