 NOTE: This is version 0.8.8 of the gintro Nim GTK bindings.
+Due to unsufficient testing a tiny bug made it into this release causing it to compile for
+GTK4 only with --gc:arc.   *nimble install gintro@#head* or the next release should fix that.
 For procs like getStartIter() without a result but with a var out
 parameter an overloaded version is created where the var out
 parameter is returned as result. So we can write "let startIter = buffer.getStartIter()" now.
