Any progress on Linux version?

Is there any progress with the linux version of PureBasic?

What are the news, any time plan for a new version to catch
up to the windows version?
Bug fixes, new features (newer GTK+ etc..) ??

Will there be a 64bit Linux version in the near future (lets say 1 year) ?

Where can i get some infos on whats happening here, instead
waiting some month without any infos?
Is there a worklog somewhere, so we can see whats happening
lately?

Maybe a 2-weekly newsletter by eMail from Fantaisie Software
to get newest infos/progress by eMail?

Or is it not good to give customers informations about the state
and progress of PureBasic?

I'm all for the newsletter idea...

The Blitz community recently started doing monthly newsletters too, and it has been warmly welcomed.
Now I know that the Blitz community is much larger that PB, but I mean there's no reason not to make a smaller newsletter, with a few words on the progress of PB and also some news in the community (new apps, games, code snippets etc..)

Just my 2 cents anyways..

I also "vote" for a newsletter! Would be much better to know, what is happening and planned with Pure Basic!

regards,
Christian

The worklog/newsletter is a good idea, I will see how setup this. For now: linux is nearly ready for beta test: #PB_Any added, IsGadget() and friends done, packer library fully ported and the compiler has been updated to v3.91. Expect it on sunday evening. On the Windows side a new beta should be out on sunday evening too with all the fixed stuffs.

Awesome! Good news, I was kinda worried about Linux support but I can see there is nothing to fear....

Fred, were you able to figure out the Linux executable size issue?
Also, which version of GTK are you using?

Sweet! Is the syntax for sprite3d the same in the linux version as in the windows?

@Fred, hope after vacation I will set up an newsgroup mailing list for PB.
But It should be used too
