  I haven't updated http://savannah.gnu.org/download/epsilon for a 
while since it wasn't useful, but now it is; it's much better than 
e-mail attachments. I will send a message here every time I am uploading 
a snapshot, ok?
  I am uploading the first snapshot now. Every snapshot will contain 
the date in the filename, in the form epsilon-YYYYMMDD.tar.gz (YYYYMMDD 
stands for year/month/day). Always take the most recent one.

========================================================================
  For the other people reading this message, if there are any: the 
files in http://savannah.gnu.org/download/epsilon are *development 
snapshots* and they are absolutely not guaranteed to work. They may be 
not even prerelase-quality. You have been warned.

  I deduce that you tried epsilon and it worked. I am quite satisfied 
:-). Remember that now you need to have gmp and SDL installed (of course 
with headers: if you use .deb or .rpm then you need also the *-devel 
packages) even to be able to compile epsilon.
  Please report any problem you find when compiling epsilon (or also 
programs written in epsilon).
  If you want to make some practice then try to modify the screen hack 
(examples/screen_hack/screen_hack.epb).

  Best regards,
