DrScheme 199d1



The v200-tagged source (in CVS) for DrScheme is now version
199d1. For details on using the intermediate releases, see

NEW DIRECTORIES

  Be sure to use the `-d' flag to CVS when you update for this
  release. There are lots of new directories.

WARNINGS

  This release is a first cut intended for
  tools implementors to have something to work with.
  There are still many things missing. The biggest
  omissions:

  - the syntax checker,
  - the project manager,
  - teachpacks, and
  - launchers

FUNCTIONALITY CHANGES

  - tools are now specified in info.ss files in top-level
    collections, rather than in a subcollection of the
    drscheme collection (see the tools manual for details).
  - added multi file searching
  - new mechanism for specifying languages
    added to tools interface.
  - changed guiutils.ss to gui-utils.ss in framework collection.
  - changed many other names to match the new -unit.ss, and -sig.ss
    convention instead of the old r.ss and s.ss convention.

The tools and framework manuals have also been released. There are 
some issues with tex2page that I haven't figured out, so some links 
may not work.

Also, be sure to delete plt/collects/doc/framework and 
plt/collects/doc/tools, since the hdindex and keywords files that you 
may already have in there are junk, but won't be automatically 
overwritten.
