Dear MacPerl Users,

two more modules have made their way to Mac OS:

    Bit::ShiftReg 2.0 -- Bit Shift Registers with Rotate / Shift Operations

Description: "Implements rotate left, rotate right, shift left and shift right 
operations with carry flag for all C integer types."

and

    Compress::LZF 0.05 --  extremely leight-weight Lev-Zimpel-Free
                                            compression

Description: "LZF is an extremely fast (not that much slower than a pure memcpy) 
compression algorithm. It is ideal for applications where you want to save some space 
but not at the cost of speed. It is ideal for repetitive data as well."

The modules were built for both the PPC and the CFM68K architecture. They will work 
with MacPerl 5.004 but not with MacPerl 5.6.0. All tests passed on both my PPC Mac and 
my 68K Mac. However, if there are any problems, please contact me.
