Subject: Version 1.7.0 of the LambdaMOO Programmer's Manual

I have finished tidying up the LambdaMOO Programmer's Manual to make it
consistent with release 1.7.0 of the server.  The new text is available for
anonymous FTP on parcftp.xerox.com in

	pub/MOO/ProgrammersManual.{texinfo,txt,ps,ps.Z,dvi,dvi.Z}

The new release of LambdaCore.db will be made available sometime tomorrow
afternoon, Sunday 25 October.

> afternoon, Sunday 25 October.
Could you or is there a list of changes from the last core to this one
to support the 1.7.0 changes such as clear props and fertile objects?
I assume @chmod needs updating but what other core verbs have been added
or changed to support 1.7.0?

I didn't make any of the core DB changes to support the new features; I think
that yduJ did most of them.  yduJ?

:looks around behind her.  Hmm, no backup forces in sight.

@chmod, $recycler:_recreate, $building_utils:recreate, @prospectus,
@display, $code_utils:show_object.  I don't remember if old cores have
.owned_objects; if so, @prospectusDB as well.
$object_utils:property_conflicts (possibly new since last core)
$generic_help:initialize (set it to 0).

I can't find any others with @grepcore \"f\" or @grepcore .f (I didn't
actually remember what all needed to be done.)

Happy converting.

Note that Pavel *did* run a verb to clear all the properties in the DB
whose values were the same as their ancestors.  Check out #2:clear_all
on Lambda (tho it's obviously been hacked once; apparently it broke
halfway though?)
