------------------------------------

New in E-VO (3.7.0)
- Compiler sometimes produced garbage error message with an error at the very
end of the file.
- Reformatted the Amigaguide document to better fit in 80 columns.
- added Arexx compile scripts
- allow creating a new object directly into an object member
eg. self.a:=NEW self.a.method()
- method table was not correctly initialised for objects declared as
eg. DEF a:b OR DEF a[5]:ARRAY OF b
- heap in compiler is allocated with MEMF_CLEAR in compiler to ensure all
data in the exe is initialised to 0 and not contain random data from
memory
- calling a method on an array element of an object did did not calculate
the correct address for the method.
- compiler was creating 020 opcodes when accessing an array of objects
- added NIL pointer checks when calling methods on array of objects
- self variable was set incorrectly for methods declared with an exception
handler
- fix issue with wrong opcode being generated in this code
DEF a
DEF b:PTR TO LONG
a:=[0,b[0]:=5]
resulting in the value not being stored correctly
- include textfield module
- fix bug in reaction_lib with the freeClickTabs, freeChooserLabels and
freeRadioButtons functions not looping through the list correctly.
- add support for long branch 020 instruction.
- fix invalid memory access when casting the result of a procedure call
to an object
- fix inconsistencies with SIZEOF command
- fix error in branching code for the == operator
- add missing listview module
- add some extra functions in reaction_lib (openClass, openLibs,
closeLibs, libDoGadgetMethodA)
- added PSIZEOF operator
- added ARRAYSIZE operator
- added SelectFirst function
- added debug symbols for methods
- allow CONT and EXIT within SELECT statement
- updated Rnd() function to be pure
- flagged openw, opwns, boolgad, settopaz, sets, gets functions as not pure
- added WARN TRUE/FALSE to enable/disable warnings
- added Rol() and Ror() functions
- the 020 variant of Mod() was not correctly used by the compiler and
was also taking the parameters the wrong way around
- added 020 variant of ListItem function
- track line numbers for warnings
- NOREGS option was not correctly parsed on methods
- taking a reference to a method {obj.method} did not return the
correct address
- 1.3 startup code now updates stack pointers to allow stack space
functions to return the correct values.
- skip NameFromFH call on kick 1.3 meaning the compiler now works
on that OS again
- NOT operator was very broken (inconsistently applied and in some cases
not applied at all)
- Added EVO_3_7_0 define
- casting and PTR TO PTR handling is improved and should now work in all
use cases.

New in E-VO (3.6.1)

- add checks for object going over 64k

optimisations including object UNIONs, string merging, non word-aligned
objects and many more.

This version is a minor update which contains the following changes:

add checks for object going over 64k

fix 020 optimised address calculation for array of object (or ptr to
object) indexing

added EXENAME and DESTDIR command line arguments to override the output
file name.

EDBG: Setting breakpoint caused crashes on certain versions of graphics.library

fix casing for IeeeDPFloor and IeeeDPCeil

Extend lists to handle 64k items instead of 32k.

Fix #else preprocessor parsing issues
Just a small sample of the changes in this release:

added PSIZEOF operator

added ARRAYSIZE operator

added SelectFirst function

added debug symbols for methods

allow CONT and EXIT within SELECT statement

E is an object oriented / procedural / unpure functional higher programming
language, mainly influenced by languages such as C++, Ada, Lisp etc. It is a
general-purpose programming language, and the Amiga implementation is
