[ANN] New greg versions

[ANN] New greg versions

[Maurizio Boriani]

Hi all,
   new major version of greg is release :)

--
The simplicity of the Greg framework makes it easy to write tests for
any program, but it was specifically written for use with GNUstep-Guile
to permit direct testing of the
http://www.gnustep.org/ libraries without the
necessity to run a separate driver program.

The core functionality of Greg is a Guile module which can be loaded
into any software with an embedded Guile interpreter. Any program
which uses Guile as it's scripting language can therefore use Greg
to test itself directly!

For testing external programs, Greg provides a compiled module that may be 
dynamically linked into Guile to permit you to run an application as a child 
process on a pseudo-terminal. In conjunction with the standard Guile `expect' 
module, this lets you test external programs.

Greg provides most of the functionality of DejaGNU but is rather simpler.

OK, so how do we get GNU greg?  What is the new version number?

(I want just greg, not anything to do with gnustep, ATM)

Cheers, 

Paul.
