Bliss 0.210 released

[Roar Thron]

Hi

In case it may be of interest:

There is a new version of Bliss out, 0.210.
Available from ftp://ftp.nvg.ntnu.no/pub/vms/bliss/bliss-0_210.tgz
(Do not mind the vms path, it compiles on Linux i386/x86_64.)

News:
Now a frontend for gcc 4.1.1.
More support for block value in control expressions.
Bliss compiling something now takes less than one tenth of the time
it did with 3.4.3.

Bliss is a relative of C, but a couple of years older.
(See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BLISS_programming_language)

Many thanks to the gcc developers for reducing the compile time to less
than one tenth.

I expected to do it anyway, since I need them for 4.1.1.

I am going to look at the new 4.x.x features as soon as I get my
frontend running again.
