Your criticism is warranted, and I apologise. This release was
different to earlier releases in that it contained a couple of
facilities to manipulate Lua -- select version by patchlevel, and
the new facility to try things like the "continue" patch that
was originally authored by David Scilia. I felt that these two
features would be of specific interest to the Lua community,
despite almost all of the rest of the Assistant is focussed on
the Tecgraf IM/CD/IUP projects.
My life continues to be hectic for Reasons, and this contributed
to the slightly rushed release. However, I take your
criticism/suggestion on fully, and will endeavour to be clearer
in the future.
(Another factor is that I've been almost wedded to this release
for a couple of months, and this has given me tunnel vision.
Fortunately, I believe that thing are improving.)
cheers,
s-b etc.
