The latest version of the Icon programming language, 8.7/8, is now
available for the following platforms:

	MS-DOS
	MS-DOS/386
	Macintosh MPW
	OS/2 2.0
	UNIX
	VMS

The OS/2, UNIX, and VMS versions support the X-Icon graphic
facilities.  Under OS/2, graphic support uses Presentation Manager;
under UNIX and VMS, the same calls use the X Window System for graphics.

This is the same version of Icon that has been available until now
for only Unix and VMS.  Compared to previous versions, this version
adds some new functions, keywords, bug fixes, and other improvements.
Document IPD188 (available by FTP) describes the features of
Version 8.7; Version 8.8 is essentially identical from an external
standpoint and differs only in internal details.

To pick up program material electronically, do an anonymous FTP
to cs.arizona.edu, cd /icon, and get READ.ME for navigation
instructions.

Persons who have Internet mail access but not FTP access can get
files via ftpmail.  For instructions, send an e-mail message with
the word

	help

in the message body (not the subject line) to

	ftpmail@cs.arizona.edu

Please address any questions to icon-project@cs.arizona.edu, not
to icon-group.
