[ANN] Emacsy 0.4.1 released


From: Jan Nieuwenhuizen
Subject: [ANN] Emacsy 0.4.1 released
Date: Tue, 02 Jul 2019 08:03:44 +0200
User-agent: Gnus/5.13 (Gnus v5.13) Emacs/26.2 (gnu/linux)

I am very pleased to announce the release of Emacsy 0.4.1.  It has been
six years since the previous release by Shane Celis.  New in this
release: unreleased work from Shane's git, up-to-date dependencies, a
GNU Guix build, abandoning of Noweb in favour of separate texinfo
documentation and pure Guile Scheme source, bug fixes, initial text
editing and more.  See NEWS below for more detail.

Two as yet unreleased projects in pre-alpha stage are now experimenting
with and contributing to Emacsy

    Nomad, an extensible web browser using GNU Guile
    https://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/nomad

and

    Guimax, a Guile UI with Emacsy
    https://gitlab.com/janneke/guimax

Many thanks to Shane for his amazing work on Emacsy, let's see where
this goes.  Emacsy is pre-alpha, use at your own risk.

About
=====

Emacsy is an embeddable Emacs-like library that uses GNU Guile
as extension language.  Emacsy can give a C program an Emacsy feel with
keymaps, minibuffer, recordable macros, history, tab completion, major
and minor modes, etc., and can also be used as a pure Guile library.  It
comes with a simple counter example using FreeGLUT and browser examples
in C using Gtk+-3 and WebKitGtk.

[*] Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the
.sig suffix) is intact.  First, be sure to download both the .sig file
and the corresponding tarball.  Then, run a command like this:

  gpg --verify emacsy-0.4.1.tar.gz.sig

If that command fails because you don't have the required public key,
then run this command to import it:

  gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys
