   Dear All,   
      
   We are happy to announce a new edition of the   
   Dogelog player:   
      
   - Novacore get_atom/[2,3]:   
      In the previous version, get_atom/[2,3] allowed   
   reading text files, in particular entire files or   
   just lines could be read.  After introducing type(binary)   
   we have now also adjusted the signature of the predicate.   
   It now accepts an options list.   
      
   - library(charsio):   
      get_atom/[2,3] is still implemented 100% Prolog, but   
   now also allows reading binary blocks using the compress/1   
   and max/1 options.  Accordingly, we renamed enum_lines/2   
   to enum_atoms/2 and introduced enum_atoms/3, the latter   
   accepting the same options list.   
      
   - library(files):   
      So far, copy_binary/2 was implemented natively synchronously,   
   for the platforms JavaScript, Python and Java. The disadvantage   
   was that execution could block. The new asynchronous   
   implementation is based on enum_atoms/3 and allows other   
   tasks to be executed while waiting for I/O.   
      
   Have Fun!
