- The latest version of the Icon programming language, 8.7/8, is now
- available for the following platforms:
-
- MS-DOS
- MS-DOS/386
- Macintosh MPW
- OS/2 2.0
- UNIX
- VMS
-
- The OS/2, UNIX, and VMS versions support the X-Icon graphic
- facilities. Under OS/2, graphic support uses Presentation Manager;
- under UNIX and VMS, the same calls use the X Window System for graphics.
-
- This is the same version of Icon that has been available until now
- for only Unix and VMS. Compared to previous versions, this version
- adds some new functions, keywords, bug fixes, and other improvements.
- Document IPD188 (available by FTP) describes the features of
- Version 8.7; Version 8.8 is essentially identical from an external
- standpoint and differs only in internal details.
-
- To pick up program material electronically, do an anonymous FTP
- to cs.arizona.edu, cd /icon, and get READ.ME for navigation
- instructions.
-
- Persons who have Internet mail access but not FTP access can get
- files via ftpmail. For instructions, send an e-mail message with
- the word

- in the message body (not the subject line) to

- Please address any questions to icon-project@cs.arizona.edu, not
