The Kaldorei Spider Kabob…

Today sees the fourth pre-release of Aranha — “The Kaldorei Spider Kabob”.

Aranha is a FastCGI responder based on the Lua programming language and is under heavy development. The language has been extended and various other joyful changes have occurred since the previous release a month ago.

The HISTORY file details the major changes.

I encourage you to get a copy and have a good play. You can find a tarball to download here so the only excuse is not knowing how to configure your webserver to have a fastcgi responder. Also if you like Bazaar-NG and want to have a play with the history of aranha, you can get a devtree by following the instructions on the aranha software page linked above.

Not to be confused with the Ukranian hunting spider…

… which actually has got a limp, and as such is complete harmless…

Today saw the first ever pre-release of the new Aranha codebase — “The Ukranian hunting spider”. (Don’t pay too much attention to that wiki it’s somewhat out of date)

Special thanks go to Breno Leitão for translating the release tagline into pt_BR: A aranha siberiana tem pernas boas, tem bom dia, pode capturar insetos, fazer teia, pegar insetos para a familia – Eu não posso fazer nada

Aranha is a FastCGI responder based on the Lua programming language and is under heavy development. The language has been extended and some important features have been added including a class system, docstrings on functions and tables, list comprehension and flexible string formatting.

I encourage you to get a copy and have a good play. You can find a tarball to download here so the only excuse is not knowing how to configure your webserver to have a fastcgi responder.

Update: Slight missing include file error :-) dist tarball, config etc updated. Sorry :-)
