Thanks to everyone for their support and special thanks to Don Ward who helped in preparations of this release. Below is a short summary of the changes that comes with this release.

Cheers,
Jafar

Improvements/Additions/Features

  * Addition of more syntax error messages
  * More informative error message for threads
  * Emit __faux.icn line directives for class/OO internals
  * Add support for redirecting stderr in system()
  * ximage now knows about the 'thread' type
  * Support stat on directory
  * Add texture support to Bg
  * Use opendir()/closedir()/readdir() and avoid the need for temp files
  
Windows Specific Bug Fixes:
  * Fix system() redirection
  * Fix append mode system() function
  * Fix !directory
  * "long" is 32 bit on Windows/mingw-gcc caused some issues.
     Ex: incorrect large integer conversion to strings
  * Fix a memory leak
  * Fix flipped texture from a 2D window
  
General Bug Fixes:
  * Fix member([], 4) to fail properly
  * Fix for odd-numbered parameters to table()
  * Fix class scopecheck on local initializer followed by static
  * image() of objects might say object not record
  * Fix getserv() when called with an integer port number
  * For functions that expect a class instance fail if the argument is a record
  * Fix off-by-one errors in texture EraseArea
  * Use named semaphores on platforms that dont have unnamed semaphores like OS X
  * Fix 3D functions to do a proper runtime error when operating on a non-3D window
  * Fix off by one error in dynamic texture copy from a 2D window

Known Issues:
   * Installation to the non default directory (c:\unicon) seems to break the
     linker's ability to link to precompiled .u files
   * On some platforms, the first time you run UI it hangs for a while,
     Stopping and restarting seems to fix the issue.
