TXR's configure + and build system has better portability support as a result. + + - call operator is a function now, like it should be. + + - Traling backslash in a dynamic regex is rejected as an error. + + - TXR no longer automatically prints out the bindings; this must be + requested explicitly with -B. The -a and -l options now imply -B. + The -b option for suppresing the automatic printing of bindings + is deprecated. + + - New --args option, allows multiple logical command line arguments to be + encoded in one physical argument which is useful in conjunction + with very limited hash-bang (#!) scripting mechanisms on some systems. + + - New variable "stdlib" which expands to a path in the TXR installation. + This will allow inclusion of standard modules. The stdlib variable + automatically tracks relocation of the TXR installation. + + - New function for searching sequences for substrings: search. + + - New functions nullify and make-like for easily adapting list processing + functions to correctly work on vectors and strings. + + - match-str function can now match from the end of a string, at various + negative offsets. + + - New string comparison functions: str=, str<, str>, str<= and str>=. + + - string-lt function deprecated, replaced by str<. + + Bugs + + - rplaca and rplacd now return the cell rather than assigned value, + and the return values are now documented. + + - Fixed a widespread bug which occurs when empty strings and vectors + are treated as lists, due to the fact that they are not equal to + the nil object. + + - Fixed completely broken string-cmp function, and changed its name + to cmp-str. + + + TXR 89 2014-05-11 |
