the last released version (v2.22).
Version 2.80

Version 2.70
============
1. Implement SPL instruction (64 tasks/program; 255 tasks maximum).
2. Correct detailed display for newer REDCODE instructions.
3. Added single step option.

round robin scheduling is currently supported.
Version 2.60
============
1. Corrected an overflow error in the ADD/SUB instructions.
Version 2.50
============
1. Change user runtime display.
2. Allow user interaction with runtime operation.
3. Allow user to enter up to eight initial programs.
4. Add MORTAR and MORTAR2 *.WAR programs.
Version 2.40
============

2. Allow user to specify multiple memory ranges on display/dumps.
3. Add DJN and SWP instructions.
4. Add hooks to support SPL instruction in future release.
It is currently processed as a "NOP"
5. Add memory "fuelgauge", numeric indicator of memory ownership.
6. Allow user to save REDCODE programs to disk.
