Executor FAQ - Section 4
Executor/NEXTSTEP


Question 4.1. Why wasn't there an Executor/NEXTSTEP release for so long?

Several months ago, we revamped how Executor handles graphics internally. This broke our NEXTSTEP support, so we did not release a NEXTSTEP version for a while. Since we had to rewrite that part of Executor anyway, we spent some time looking into some NeXT tools that allow programs to implement very fast graphics.

NeXT has been helpful, and in the meantime we revamped our low-level graphics once more. This was done after receiving some help from NeXT, so our new mods are in keeping with what we'll be doing under NEXTSTEP.

The NEXTSTEP port is finally out, and available on the usual sites. We apologize for the repeated delay associated with this (re)port.
