@section Noteworthy changes since version @samp{0.1.3}
This release not well tested at all. We desperately need someone to
write a test suite using dejagnu. Any volunteers?
I made this release now in order to share the progress that is being
made on GNUSTEP.
@itemize
@item
New GNUSTEP implementations: NSObject, NSAutoreleasePool, NSZone.
Thanks to Mark Lakata for NSZone.
@item
New GNUSTEP implementations included, but not compiled: NSBundle,
NSException, NSGeometry, NSNumber, NSValue. Many thanks Adam Fedor.
@item
Many new GNU classes: String classes! String, MutableString,
ConstantString. One interesting feature of the GNU string classes is
that that, just like in Smalltalk, they are part of the Collection
heirarchy---all the methods you are used to using on other collections
can be used on these "collections of characters". You can create
ConstantStrings using the @@"" syntax.
@item Entire library converted to use @code{retain}, @code{release},
@code{autorelease}, @code{dealloc} instead of @code{free}.
