1 | Hello. | ||
2 | |||
3 | I'm please to announce the release of the DJGPP port of XDelta 1.1.2. | ||
4 | This release contains mainly minor bugfixes over the previous | ||
5 | version (1.1.1). Please see the file 'contrib/xdlt112/news' for | ||
6 | a complete list of changes. | ||
7 | |||
8 | Here is a description of XDelta, from its 'readme' file: | ||
9 | |||
10 | "XDelta is a library interface and application program designed to compute | ||
11 | changes between files. These changes (deltas) are similar to the output | ||
12 | of the "diff" program in that they may be used to store and transmit only | ||
13 | the changes between files. However, unlike diff, the output of XDelta is | ||
14 | not expressed in a human-readable format--XDelta can also also apply these | ||
15 | deltas to a copy of the original file(s). XDelta uses a fast, linear | ||
16 | algorithm and performs well on both binary and text files. XDelta | ||
17 | typically outperforms GNU diff in both time and generated-delta-size, even | ||
18 | for plain text files. XDelta also includes a simple implementation of the | ||
19 | Rsync algorithm and several advanced features for implementing RCS-like | ||
20 | file-archival with." | ||
21 | |||
22 | XDelta is distributed under the GNU General Public License. | ||
23 | |||
24 | The port is available from the DJGPP archive on SimTel.NET: | ||
25 | |||
26 | http://www.simtel.net/gnudlpage.php?product=/gnu/djgpp/v2apps/xdlt112b.zip&name=xdlt112b.zip | ||
27 | http://www.simtel.net/gnudlpage.php?product=/gnu/djgpp/v2apps/xdlt112s.zip&name=xdlt112s.zip | ||
28 | |||
29 | These are binary and source distributions respectively. If you only want | ||
30 | to use XDelta, please download the binary distribution. If you would like | ||
31 | to rebuild XDelta, please download the source distribution. No changes | ||
32 | were required to port XDelta to DJGPP. | ||
33 | |||
34 | Thanks to Joshua MacDonald for incorporating the DJGPP patches into | ||
35 | XDelta. Thanks to Eli Zaretskii for his detailed bug reports, suggestions | ||
36 | and testing of XDelta in the past. | ||
37 | |||
38 | If you have any problems, suggestions, etc. about the port, please mail | ||
39 | me. | ||

41 | Bye, | ||
