ANN: new Genie release

Simon Michael
As penance, and encouraged by Brian, I ended up doing a bunch of work on
the Genie package yesterday. Genie is a very cool gesture recognition
system by Nathanael Schärli that for years required a bit of setup work
and has been largely ignored. I'm pleased to announce that there is now
a ready-to-run version of Genie on squeak source.

This version includes better Squeak integration, a small dictionary of
useful gestures for project navigation and UI control, and most of all,
should "just work" after installation. It has been tested with Squeak
3.10 and 3.9 so far. Please give it a try and ask questions if you have
any trouble.

http://squeaksource.com/genie.html

Also note the squeaksource Genie project is now globally-writable, so
feel free to make it better.

Thanks - Simon

The latest Genie is now also in the 3.9 and 3.10 package universes.

I'd be glad to have Nathanael merge the two readmes and participate
in/take over any of this, but I can't find a working email address for
him - if you know it, perhaps you can forward this to him.

Thanks!
-Simon

Hi Simon

Thanks for your work on the Genie package. It's great that this is available
again! Work & family have kept me pretty busy and so I wasn't able to
contribute to Squeak recently. However, if you need my input/support for
some of this I would be happy to help out. Just let me know.

Cheers,
Nathanael
