The 8.2 branch is not compatible with the 8.0.2 binary. If you want something newer than 8.0.2, it is therefore recommended you download the 8.2b instead, as indicated above. (The only justification for wanting to run an 8.1 version of the old binary is perhaps if you are on an OSX 10.3 machine...)

Beta releases

The latest beta development release (AlphaX 8.2b) can be downloaded from [http://pagesperso-orange.fr/bdesgraupes/alphabinaries.html]. It requires OSX 10.4 or 10.5.

AlphaX 8.2b embeds Tcl 8.5 and AlphaTcl 8.2 (branch-8_2a1d).

It is very easy to upgrade AlphaX' embedded AlphaTcl library via SVN. See UpdatingAlphaTcl ?.

Stable releases

The second final, public release of AlphaX 8.0 (8.0.2) was released in June 2006. It exists in three different flavors, for Mac OS X versions 10.2.x, 10.3.x, and 10.4.x:

Mac OS X 10.2.x : [http://www.purl.org/net/Alpha/releases/AlphaX/8.0.2-Jaguar.dmg]
Mac OS X 10.3.x : [http://www.purl.org/net/Alpha/releases/AlphaX/8.0.2-Panther.dmg]
Mac OS X 10.4.x : [http://www.purl.org/net/Alpha/releases/AlphaX/8.0.2-Tiger.dmg]

(Jaguar: 13.4 mB download ; Panther: 14.3 mB ; Tiger: 10.9 mB.)

Unlike previous beta versions of AlphaX, there is no need to download and install the "Tcl" software library separately. Each flavor listed above is upwards compatible, i.e. the Jaguar version should also work in Panther and Tiger.

AlphaX 8.0.2 can be upgraded to 8.1a via CVS or SVN. This is not recommended, though: the 8.2 branch was so successful it soon obsoleted the 8.1 branch. All AlphaTcl development in now dedicated to the 8.2 branch. The 8.2 branch is not compatible with the 8.0.2 binary. If you want to upgrade from 8.0.2, it is therefore recommended you download the 8.2b instead, as indicated above.
