Subject: ANNOUNCE: A new DJGPP release of WMEMU uploaded
Reply-To: djgpp AT delorie DOT com

This is to announce that a new release of the WMEMU x87 emulator for
DJGPP is available from SimTel.NET mirrors worldwide:

 ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2misc/wmemu21b.zip
 ftp://ftp.simtel.net/pub/simtelnet/gnu/djgpp/v2misc/wmemu21s.zip

WMEMU is an alternative FP emulator, based on the emulator originally 
written for Linux by W. Metzenthen.  It emulates the real FPU more 
closely than emu387 (distributed with djdevNNN.zip), especially for 
abnormal operands such as Inf and NaN.  However, WMEMU is distributed 
under GPL.

This release is really just a rebuild of the same sources we had 
earlier.  The previous version that was available from SimTel was built 
with an early beta of DJGPP v2.0, and therefore was incompatible with all 
releases of v2.x (if you tried to link your program against libwmemu.a, 
you got linker errors).  This release fixes that problem.  The only other 
changes in the package are that it is now LFN-clean, and you can build it 
on DOS and Windows 9X alike.

Please direct any further discussions about this package to 
comp.os.msdos.djgpp news group (or write to its e-mail gateway 
djgpp AT delorie DOT com).
