New Self release: 4.3

[Adam Spitz]

Dave, Alex and I just wanted to announce that we've released a new  
version of Self. You can download it here:

http://research.sun.com/self/release_4.3/release.html

The new version includes Dave's port of Self to the Intel x86  
architecture, so that Self now runs on the new Intel-based Macs.  
(Self still doesn't run on Windows or Linux, though. If anyone out  
there is willing to get this latest version of Self running on  
Windows or Linux, we'd greatly appreciate it. In the meantime,  
there's Harald Gliebe and Gordon Cichon's x86 port at http:// 
www.gliebe.de/self , which I believe is based on Self 4.1.6.)

Additionally, Dave has revived the original Self user interface  
(UI1), although its cartoon-animation techniques haven't yet been  
incorporated into the default Morphic user interface (UI2). See the  
release notes for instructions on running UI1, and for a full list of  
changes in this release.

If anyone has any trouble with the new release, please don't hesitate  
to let me know. Enjoy!
