# RETRO 12 - 2018.12
|
|
|
|
In this release, the executables have been renamed to avoid
|
|
naming conflicts with other applications and packages.
|
|
|
|
old name new name
|
|
========== ================
|
|
rre retro
|
|
embedimage retro-embedimage
|
|
extend retro-extend
|
|
muri retro-muri
|
|
repl retro-repl
|
|
ri retro-ri
|
|
unu retro-unu
|
|
|
|
The addition of the new `|` prefix makes compiler macros
|
|
easier to write. Contrast:
|
|
|
|
:IF &[ class:macro ; immediate
|
|
:THEN &] class:macro &choose class:word ; immediate
|
|
|
|
:IF |[ ; immediate
|
|
:THEN |] |choose ; immediate
|
