CRAN release 0.8.2

nanonext 0.8.2

New Features

• lock() and unlock() implemented to prevent further pipe connections from being established at a socket, optionally tied to the value of a condition variable.

Updates

• context() gains the argument 'verify' with a default of TRUE. This adds additional protection to notably the request() and request_signal() functions when using timeouts, as these require a connection to be present.
• Sending and hashing of language objects and symbols is now possible after fixes to serialisation.
• until() now works as intended.
• Removes recently-introduced msg_pipe() and 'weakref<-'() to maintain simplicity of user interface.
• Internal performance enhancements.
