Pushed 0.9.6n to svn. It fixed a couple of memory leaks, parsing of whitespace before a label, and added ... drum-roll please ... sprites. Real sprite support allows now for basic pong game to look something like:

# ball bounce program
# 2010-06-14 j.m.reneau

print "use mouse to bounce ball on paddle."

color black
rect 0,0,300,300

dx = 1
dy = 1

spritedim 2
spriteload 0, "ball.png"
spriteplace 0,10,10
spriteshow 0
spriteload 1, "paddle"
spriteplace 1,150,270
spriteshow 1

while spritey(0) < 295
   spriteplace 1, mousex, 270
   if spritex(0) < 5 or spritex(0) > 295 then dx = dx * -1
   if spritey(0) < 5 then dy = dy * -1
   spritemove 0, dx, dy
   if spritecollide(0,1) then
      dx = (dx + (spritex(1)-spritex(0)) * .05) * -1
      dy = (dy + (spritey(1)-spritey(0)) * .05) * -1
   end if
end while

print "you missed."

Isn't that cool. Check out the other examples and the updated EN documentation.
