F# 1.1.10.2 Released

F# 1.1.10.2 was released by the F# Team at MSR.  While there are a few minor changes in the language, the biggest change is the fsi - the F# interactive environment.  It is now integrated into VS2005.  While this integration may seem trivial, it represents a step forward for the F# environment and a move toward a competitive posture with other mathematics/scientific computing environments.  The Visual F# Interactive session is global to the instance of VS2005, so interactivity with other F# code in the VS session is leveraged nicely.

One important note that is useful is this:  the vfsi environment uses Alt-Enter and Alt-' (single quote) for evaluation of any selected text or a line.  While this is useful within the VS2005 environment, make certain that if you are using this within a Virtual PC session, that you use the "left" side ALT key as the "right" side ALT key, when combined with the Enter key is the "toggle full screen mode" for VPC.

Get the download.  Read more on Dr. Syme's post.

[Updated to add]

Please also note that the F# web site has now moved.  The new location is http://research.microsoft.com/fsharp/fsharp.aspx.
