Hi folks,

It's available from the project website here: http://mikeos.sourceforge.net

Full changelog below. In brief: this release includes new BASIC programs including a memory editor (screenshot), calculator and ASCII art designer. The EDIT.BIN text editor has been enhanced, and programs can retrieve arguments if called from the command line. Thanks to Joshua Beck and Matej Horvat for their contributions, and everyone on the mailing list who tested.

Cheers,
Mike

• New program: Memory Manipulator (MEMEDIT.BAS) from Joshua Beck: a colourful program for editing bytes in memory, written in BASIC
