Wow, great work ! Can’t wait to give it a spin, having multiple instances easily is a really big step! Thank => You ! Casper

Dear all,

Greetings! chuck-1.4.0.0 (numchucks) is available:

http://chuck.stanford.edu/ http://chuck.cs.princeton.edu/

This is a major release of ChucK, and is mostly a massive code refactor -- huge thanks to Jack Atherton for months of groundwork. It is now...

1) ...much easier to embed ChucK as a lib/module/component into other host systems (e.g., Unity... more on that in the coming weeks); (developers looking to embed chuck: the core engine can be found in src/core/; the command line host is now in src/host/ -- also as an example for new hosts)

2) ...possible to support any number of ChucK/VM instances in the same address space (hence "numchucks")

Please see the release notes at the end of this email and, as usual, thank you and happy ChucKin!

Best, Spencer, Jack, Ge and the chuck team
