Executor FAQ - Section 4
Executor/NEXTSTEP
Question 4.1. Why wasn't there an Executor/NEXTSTEP release for so
long?
Several months ago, we revamped how Executor handles graphics
internally. This broke our NEXTSTEP support, so we did not release
a NEXTSTEP version for a while. Since we had to rewrite that part of
Executor anyway, we spent some time looking into some NeXT tools that
allow programs to implement very fast graphics.
NeXT has been helpful, and in the meantime we revamped our low-level
graphics once more. This was done after receiving some help from
NeXT, so our new mods are in keeping with what we'll be doing under
NEXTSTEP.
The NEXTSTEP port is finally out, and available on the usual sites.
We apologize for the repeated delay associated with this (re)port.
