saturnus 0.8.1 brings the desktop app to ARM: Windows on ARM and Linux
aarch64 now have their own installers. Nothing else changes; see 0.8.0
for this week's new features.

Get it

  • On the web, nothing to install: https://ractive.ch/saturnus/app/
    (Chrome or Edge for a serial cable; every browser for the emulated
    calculator).
  • The desktop app saturnus_0.8.1_… (on Linux saturnus-app), with a
    -SHA256SUMS file beside them:
    • macOS, Apple silicon: .dmg, signed and notarised, or brew trust --cask ractive/tap/saturnus-app once, then brew install --cask ractive/tap/saturnus-app;
    • Windows: .msi or -setup.exe for x86_64 (x64) and, new, for ARM
      (arm64);
    • Linux: .deb, .rpm or .AppImage for x86_64 (amd64, x86_64)
      and, new, for ARM (arm64, aarch64). Add yourself to the dialout
      group to use a serial port.
  • The command-line tools saturnus and satx: cargo install,
    Homebrew ractive/tap, Scoop ractive, or the archives and Linux
    packages below (ARM archives as before).
  • Libraries on crates.io, all at 0.8.1, unchanged apart from the
    version.

Desktop app on ARM

  • Windows on ARM runs the app natively. The setup .exe itself is the
    usual installer, which Windows runs emulated; the app it installs is
    ARM.
  • Linux aarch64 gets the same three packages as x86_64, the package
    saturnus-app.
