BRL 2.1.21 released 2000-12-05 http://brl.sourceforge.net/
* An important bug is fixed that prevented debugging
information from being sent back to the browser when an error
message was null.
* JServ's "CGI environment variables" are supported, important
for SSL. Use the same cgi syntax that invisibly translated
traditional CGI environment variables into their servlet
equivalents.
* Some functions were extended to take an arbitrary number of
possibly non-string arguments for convenience of the way they
are most frequently used: sql-execute, sql-execute-update and
functions returned by brl-smtp-sender. This should reduce
string-append and brl-string clutter on BRL pages. The manual
has been appropriately updated.
* URL arguments are by default separted with & instead of
& as previously.
BRL is a language designed for server-side WWW-based applications,
particularly database applications. It is based on Scheme, which makes
the syntax extremely simple yet powerful. This implementation is a
Java Servlet using the Kawa Scheme compiler. For more information see
