-\\ ====== Appendix C   Update Release Notes ======
-The following sections denote the changes and bug fixes for CLIPS versions 6.05, 6.1, and 6.2.
-===== C.1 Version 6.2 =====
-• **Environments** -- It is now possible in an embedded application to create multiple environments into which programs can be loaded (see section 9).
-\\ • **External Function Interface** - Several new functions have been added including:
-\\ **GetClassDefaultsMode** (see section 4.12.10)
-**SetClassDefaultsMode** (see section 4.12.19)
-\\ • **Run-time Programs** -- Support for environments requires some changes in code for loading run-time programs (see section 5).
-\\ • **Compiler Directives** -- Two new flags have been added: ENVIRONMENT_API_ONLY and ALLOW_ENVIRONMENT_GLOBALS.
-\\ • **New Source Files** -- New source files have been added (see section 2.1 for a complete list of source files):
-\\ **envrnmnt.c**
-**envrnmnt.h**
-===== C.2 Version 6.1 =====
-• **C++ Compatible** -- The CLIPS source code can now be compiled using either an ANSI C or C++ compiler. Minimally, non-ANSI C compilers must support full ANSI style function prototypes and the void data type in order to compile CLIPS.
-\\ • **Obsolete External Function Interface Changes** - The following functions should be replaced with the specified functions. If clips.h is included in your C files, macros will automatically map these functions to their new names.
-\\ **CLIPSFunctionCall** (use **FunctionCall** instead)
-**ExitCLIPS** (use **ExitRouter** instead)
-**GetcCLIPS** (use **GetcRouter** instead)
-**InitializeCLIPS** (use **InitializeEnvironment** instead)
-**PrintCLIPS** (use **PrintRouter** instead)
-**UngetcCLIPS** (use **UngetcRouter** instead)
-\\ • **Obsolete Constants and Variables Changes** - The following constants and variables should be replaced with the specified replacements. If clips.h is included in your C files, macros will automatically map the old names to their new names.
-\\ **CLIPS_FALSE** (use **FALSE** instead)
-**CLIPS_TRUE** (use **TRUE** instead)
-**CLIPSFalseSymbol** (use **FalseSymbol** instead)
-**CLIPSTrueSymbol** (use **TrueSymbol** instead)
-**WCLIPS** (use **WPROMPT** instead)
-\\ • **Source File Name Changes** - The names of the following source files have been changed:
-\\ **clipsmem.h** (use **memalloc.h** instead)
-**memory.c** (use **memalloc.c** instead)
-\\ • **Compiler Directives** -- Some of the compiler directive flags in the file setup.h have been changed. The CLP_TEXTPRO and CLP_HELP flags have been renamed to TEXTPRO_FUNCTIONS and HELP_FUNCTIONS. The ANSI_COMPILER flag has been removed.
-\\ • **External Function Interface** - Several new functions have been added including:
-\\ **GetNextInstanceInClassAndSubclasses** (see section 4.13.15)
-\\ • **New Source Files** -- Several new source files have been added (see section 2.1 for a complete list of source files):
-\\ **parsefun.c**
-**parsefun.h**
-**proflfun.c**
-**proflfun.h**
-**sortfun.c**
-**sortfun.h**
