We've just released the 961002 version of Swarm. I've attached the
Release-Notes for this version at the end of this message.
Since this is my first release with Swarm, there will necessarily
be some problems with either the web pages or the distribution,
itself. If you experience any of these problems, forgive me and
let me know about it. (One problem I've seen already, but didn't
fix is the "old versions" part of the Web. The links to the old
versions don't seem to work, anymore; but, that will get fixed
when we *really* re-vamp the web pages.)
Thanks for your patience.

Swarm Beta Release Notes
Version 961002:
1. Added Gaussian. Draws a uniform random number with a normal
distribution around a given mean, standard deviation, and
seed. Soon there will be even more stuff thanks to Sven.
2. Added scrollbars to the probes.
3. Changed controlPanel functionality.
One implication is that instead of
[controlPanel waitForControlEvent]
users that want to stop the simulation (from the software, e.g.
to wait for the user to fill in datafields) should use
[controlPanel setStateStopped]
4. Added the method
-removeProbeDisplayFor: anObject
to the ProbeDisplayManager class so that you may remove a probe
display for an object without the probe id.
5. Added the long-awaited -batchmode flag!
6. New library <analysis.h> which contains the following new classes:
EZBin.h EZDistribution.h EZGraph.h Entropy.h
It also serve as a new home for the following class:
Averager.h
7. Upgraded Entropy and Average so that they can take any collection
(not necessarily a list).
8. Fixed getAverage on Averager when the collection is empty.
9. The following classes have moved from <swarmobject.h> to <simtools.h>:
ActiveGraph.h ActiveOutFile.h
10. The following _new_ classes have landed in <simtools.h>:
InFile.h OutFile.h ObjectLoader.h ObjectSaver.h UName.h
11. Added new methods to Discrete2d:
-fastFillWithValue: (int) aValue
-fastFillWithObject: anObject
-fillWithValue: (int) aValue
-fillWithObject: anObject
12. Added new class (Int2dFiler.h) for filing of discrete2d spaces.
13. Added the CompleteVarMap class to the probing capabilities.
14. Added a message to the ProbeLibrary:
-getCompleteVarMap: (Class) aClass
15. Added methods to the VarProbe class:
-setNonInteractive
-(int) isInteractive
16. Added methods to the Histo class (tkobjc):
-drawHistoWithDouble: (double *) points
atLocation: (double *) locations
-drawHistoWithInt: (int *) points
atLocation: (double *) locations
