I’m happy to announce that a new release of Tachy is now available. The big news for this release is that Tachy now includes debugging support developed by Peter de Laat, including an alpha version of his Visual Studio .NET 2003 Add-in for Tachy. Thanks Peter! Click on the thumbnail below to see a screenshot of the Add-in at work:

Peter has generously released his changes and Visual Studio.NET Add-in under the same BSD license as the rest of Tachy. For more information on the new Add-in, take a look at Peter’s “readme.txt” file in the ‘TachySource/TachyExtension’ directory. A sample that uses the Add-in is available in the ‘TachyExamples/Example2DotnetClasses’ directory.

The new release can be found on the Tachy page or downloaded directly here.
