I am happy to announce a new major release of GNU poke, version 4.0.

This release is the result of a year of development.  A lot of things
have changed and improved with respect to the 3.x series; we have
fixed many bugs and added quite a lot of new exciting and useful
features.  See below for a description of many of them.

The tarball poke-4.0.tar.gz is now available at
https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/poke/poke-4.0.tar.gz.

> GNU poke (http://www.jemarch.net/poke) is an interactive, extensible
> editor for binary data.  Not limited to editing basic entities such
> as bits and bytes, it provides a full-fledged procedural,
> interactive programming language designed to describe data
> structures and to operate on them.


Thanks to the people who contributed with code and/or documentation to
this release.
