    A few minutes ago I finished a new version of BSF4ooRexx.

    You can download it from:

    BSF4ooRexx: <https://sourceforge.net/projects/bsf4oorexx/files/beta/20190203/?upload_just_completed=true>, just
    created it a few minutes ago
    NOTE: on Unix this version needs at least ooRexx 5 r12102 in order to be able to link to ooRexx

    A few notes:

    on Linux the installation now goes into /usr/local,
    on Unix BSF4ooRexx is now linked against ooRexx 4 as the 5.0.0 version has been removed from the
    libraries as the APIs for loading have not changed, this has also the side effect that BSF4ooRexx
    can now be used against ooRexx 4.1 and 4.2 without a recompile,
    there are a few new JavaFX samples that demonstrate context-menu and the usage of
    ListView/ListCell and TableView/TableCell,
    the JDBC sample has been updated to demonstrate how to use MySQL/MariaSQL and SQLite uniformely
    via JDBC,
    if you are able to compile BSF4ooRexx.cc for Linux ARM (32- and/or 64-bit) then please be so
    kind and make those libraries available for inclusion into the installation package, the same goes
    for s390x,

    In case you do not have ooRexx r12102 or newer on Linux you must first update ooRexx, you may
    temporarily use:

    ooRexx: created today r12104, temporarily on my DropBox (<https://www.dropbox.com/sh/a86bt042pravm5p/AADK9Fac5pobhscxKxrRRxkua?dl=0>); this location also
    has zip-archives for "stick" versions of ooRexx which run right off the bin directory after
    unzipping (without the need of an installation in case you do not have administrator rights which
    are needed for the regular, full installations)
    *however* expect newer versions to show up sooner than later on the ooRexx Sourceforge site at
    <https://sourceforge.net/projects/oorexx/files/oorexx/5.0.0beta/>.

    As usual, if you find bugs, problems in BSF4ooRexx, then please use the BSF4ooRexx developer mailing
    list or the BSF4ooRexx bug tracker, both from: < <https://sourceforge.net/projects/bsf4oorexx>.
