Announcing the latest stable release of Anjuta, 0.1.8. This 
release is the first of
the 0.1.x series since the announcement of the merger of the 
Anjuta and gIDE
projects, and demonstrates that whilst the next-generation tools
(Anjuta DevStudio) are being developed, the existing IDE is 
still being
maintained and enhanced.

The Anjuta website can be found at: http://anjuta.sourceforge.net

What is Anjuta?

Anjuta is a versatile Integrated Development Environment (IDE), 
primarily
intended for C/C++. It has been written for GTK+/GNOME, and 
features a number
of advanced programming facilities, such as project management, 
application
wizards, an interactive debugger and a powerful source code 
editor, with
source browsing and syntax highlighting.

What is new / changed in this release?

     * integration of new TagManager library - improved 
autocompletion and
       calltips functionality,
     * multiple file drag-and-drop,
     * ability to save build message output,
     * DOS file (CR/LF) handling,
     * many new translations - 17 languages now fully or 
partially supported,
     * notebook tabs notify when file has been changed and can 
be scrolled for
       browsing,
     * improvements to interactive debugger and communication 
with gdb,
     * improved find functionality,
     * ... plus the usual bug fixes and minor feature additions.
