Releases began to be identified primarily by number rather than date beginning with 17.0. From this point, new primitives and other major language changes were added in *.0 releases; many point releases were not updates to the interpreter itself but to other components. For example, release 17.4 updated the printing facility HSPRINT. Point releases affecting the interpreter generally added or extended [[quad name]]s and [[system command]]s, or improved performance. Release number 18 was apparently skipped. | |||
