I updated the Inform6 Standard Library to version 6.12.2.
Thank you. I also saw you announce that the releases will now be
somewhere other than GitHub? What URL should recipients watch for
future source releases?
The Library is now at https://gitlab.com/DavidGriffith/inform6lib
Bugs fixed
----------
* Removed last vestiges of modules.
I think I don't understand what this means.
It was a means of pre-compiling pieces of the Library to speed up
compilation. It never was particularly helpful. Now it's pointless
because even a big program takes so little time to compile. When the
Glulx virtual machine was invented, there was no point to adding module
support to the compiler.
* Backported Glulx 16-bit verb numbers from I7's Parser.i6t
Does the copyright holders in that work (the back-ported ‘Parser.i6t’)
grant recipients exactly the same license as the rest of the Inform 6
library? (I haven't looked, we would need to see the text of the grant
of license.)
Yes. Those portions of Inform7 are under the Artistic License 2.0.
