ATS2-0.1.9 released

Hi,

I am glad to announce the release of ATS2-0.1.9.

The official website for ATS is:

http://www.ats-lang.org

which has been overhauled recently.

The following packages are included in this release:

ATS2-Postiats-0.1.9.tgz
ATS2-Postiats-contrib-0.1.9.tgz
ATS2-Postiats-include-0.1.9.tgz

I have included ATS2-Postiats-contrib (instead of
releasing it separately) as it is truly by now an
indispensible part of ATS2.

After installing ATS-Postiats-include, one can compile
the C code generated from ATS source without installing
the ATS compiler. So a convenient way to distribute software
written in ATS is to simply release the C code generated
from the ATS source.

See below for some major additions and changes in ATS2-0.1.9.

Cheers!
