[info-mcl] ANNOUNCE: MCLIDE 1.0b

[Robert Schaaf]

Alas, I am one the unlucky ones whose CL64 fails to load.  Even if you don't yet have a fix, do you at least have an intuition of why this may be happening?  Your notes mention an 'Activate' step, but all I see is a Start/Skip dialog.  Of course, Swank works, but so inelegant!

Also, when the loading works, will I get the CL64 icon in the dock?  I'd like to put MCLIDE in the dock, but I fear I'll get icons for CL64, and both the MCLIDE boot loader and internal app, which are identical.

I'd really like to come back to CCL from ruby, and this IDE might just turn the tide.  Now, if we could just get a group together to implement something like Hot Cocoa, things might pick up substantially.

Really nice piece of work.
