- Subject: [ANN] Shine-0.1.0 - Lua++

Hi,
I'm pleased to announce version 0.1.0 of Shine [1].
New in this release:
* Procedural macros.
* Decorators (a.k.a. annotations).
* User definable operators.
Various bug fixes and performance improvements.
What is it?
Shine is a programming language which is a loose super-set of Lua, and
is built on TvmJIT, a modified version of LuaJIT by François Perrad.
You can think of it as being to Lua what C++ is to C. The changes are
mostly additive.
What's next?
This release marks a feature freeze - as far as such a thing is possible
in a project this young. Focus now shifts to stabilizing the core and
expanding libraries and documentation.
Finally, a big thanks for all the support and feedback I've had so far.
It's been fantastic, and of course, keep it coming!
Cheers,
Richard
