Go to main FAQ page. (Note the filename of the main page is now index.htm.)

Each item in the FAQ has a date indicating the last significant modification. (A modification is significant if new or different information is provided. A modification that simply fixes trivial and obvious errors, such as spelling errors, or simply updates the version number is not considered significant.) Items that are new or substantially changed for Allegro CL 6.2 have a date 7/6/02 or later. Items with earlier dates are not changed significantly for release 6.2. The initial list here is items changed from the 6.1 version only.
