Raw Blame History 

  1. History of Nife releases :

  2. 

  3. 2014-06-27 - Nife 0.49 is released.

  4. 	* Add DEC, HEX, OCT and BIN functions to define the print mode for the

  5. 	  integers. The default is decimal.

  6. 	* Modify signals comportment to accept interrupt from terminal to stop

  7. 	  execution in the main (interactive) task.

  8. 	* Fixed an error in the case of the end: label is before the onerr: one.

  9. 	* Fixed a bug when a signal "segmentation violation" is catched.

  10. 	* Add some help facilities suggested by Alain Empain, until his tools

  11. 	  are efficient in Nife.
