58 enough reports that I could work out the pattern.)

62
63 Applied test patches for Perl core integration from Steve Peters.
64

862004-05-24 Sean M. Burke <sburke@cpan.org>
87 * Release 3.01
88
89 No big changes to the main modules, but there's many changes to
90 the important Pod::Simple::HTML module.
91
92 Also, new modules:
93 Pod::Simple::HTMLBatch
94 Pod::Simple::HTMLLegacy
95 Pod::Simple::Progress
96 Pod::Simple::Search
97 and tests for these (well, most).
98
99 Some prettying up of the Makefile.PL.
100
101 The test 00about.t is a bit more careful and verbose now.
102
103 The docs are still incomplete, esp. for Pod::Simple::HTML and
104 Pod::Simple::HTMLBatch, which I hope to improve quite soon.
105
106
107
1082004-05-07 Sean M. Burke <sburke@cpan.org>
109 * Release 2.06
110
111 Allison Randal brilliantly refactors a huge monolithic sub in
112 Blackbox.pm. Code is now actually sanely readable!
113
114 I add the new option-attributes fullstop_space_harden and
115 codes_in_verbatim, and the two methods abandon_output_string and
116 abandon_output_fh. Not yet documented.
117
118 New test fullstop_spaces.t and new corpus document
119 greek_iso_8859_7.pod.
120
121 Another version should be forthcoming in a few days that has the
122 new Pod::Simple::HTML stuff in it.
123
124 Note to self: document =extend and =encoding in perlpodspec ASAP!
125
126
1272003-11-04 Sean M. Burke <sburke@cpan.org>
128 * Release 2.05 -- bugfix version
129
130 In an attempt to stop Perl 5.6 versions from going completely
131 crazy, I've tried to basically turn off all Unicode/utf8 support
132 under 5.6. Under 5.8 and above, Unicode should work fine, and
133 under 5.6, all Unicode characters should be replaced with a little
134 "can't render" symbol, either a "ยค" or a "?".
135 Many many thanks to Jarkko Hietaniemi for helping out.
136
137 (Works under 5.005 now too?)
138
1392003-10-10 Sean M. Burke <sburke@cpan.org>
140 * Release 2.04 -- minor bugfix version
141
142 * Added some code to insulate Pod::Simple to runtime changes in
143 the value of $/. Thanks to Iain Truskett for catching this.
144 * Added FILENO method to TiedOutFH.pm, to work quietly under some
145 perls. Thanks to Jochen Stenzel for catching this.
146 * Fixed some tests that erroneously failed under some 5.6's
147 because of chdir()s in *.t files messing up @INC Thanks to many
148 who caught this, including Rocco Caputo.
149
1502003-09-07 Sean M. Burke <sburke@cpan.org>
151 * Release 2.03 -- minor upgrade
152 * A =head[1234] command now closes any currently open =over, and
153 warns.
154 * Fixing a few obscure bugs, including one to do with the
155 Makefile.
156 * Added some tests for those bugs.
157
1582003-09-02 Sean M. Burke <sburke@cpan.org>
159 * Release 2.02 -- fixing a testing bug
160 * Autrijus Tang found a silly bug of mine in corpustest.t's
161 testing of corpus/t/nonesuch.txt. Fixed,
162 * I add encoding_nonesuch.t to test corpus/t/nonesuch.txt better.
163
164
1652003-09-01 Sean M. Burke <sburke@cpan.org>
166 * Release 2.01
167 * Moved all version numbers up to 2.01 for reasons of Tibetan
168 numerology.
169
170 * Implemented =encoding. Thanks a million to Jarkko, Autrijus,
171 Dan Kogai, and many others for their help, patience, and
172 encouragement.
173
174 It's not yet documented, but see ./t/corpus/*.txt for examples at
175 least.
176
177 * Added 'use utf8' to all the modules. Byebye perl-5.005
178 compatibility, hello decent perl-5.6 compatibility.

181
1822003-09-01 Sean M. Burke <sburke@cpan.org>
183 * Release 0.98
184 * At Michael Schwern's suggestion, a list that begins with a
185 "=item [number]" line where number isn't a 1, is no longer
186 treated as an error, but instead is silently coerced into being a
187 text-item list, just as if it were "=item wubble" or whatever.
188
1892003-08-12 Sean M. Burke <sburke@cpan.org>
190 * Release 0.97
191 * Loooking goooooood. Not smelling so much like beta anymore!
192 * I think this might be the last version before I go
193 putting "use utf8" all over the place.
194
195 * Added placefolders for "=encoding" support. If you use
196 "=encoding", you'll get an error about "not yet implemented"
197 instead of "unknown directive".
198
199 * Rewrote Pod::Simple::Pullparser's get_title, and added
200 get_version, get_author, and get_description. Documented them.
201 Thanks to Graham Barr for contributing an initial get_title and
202 then being patient while I seemed to do nothing with it for months
203 on end!
204
205 * More tests.
206
207 Otherwise just minor changes since last version:
208 * Fixed error in Pod::Simple::RTF.
209 * Added new but undocumented methods to Pod::Simple:
210 unaccept_directive(s) unaccept_target(s) unaccept_code(s)
211 * Corrected '=back without =open' error to '=back without =over'
212 * A little tweaking to the _verbatim_format code.
213 * Dump routines may use \x{NN} instead of \xNN format.
214 * Pod::Simple::HTML now uses VerbatimFormatted
215 * A few changes ot DEBUG messages -- nothing you'd normally see.
216
2172002-11-19 Sean M. Burke <sburke@cpan.org>
218 * Release 0.96
219 * Still kinda sorta beta.
220
221 * Much much more docs in this version. Only a few feature
222 changes:
223
224 * Added any_errata_seen to Pod::Simple. Should've been in there
225 ages ago. Oops!
226 * Fixed some errors in the experimental VerbatimFormatted code.
227 * Added is_tagname / is_tag to Pod::Simple::PullParserStartToken
228 and Pod::Simple::PullParserEndToken
229 * Added RTFDEFLANG stuff to Pod::Simple::RTF.

238 * Pod::Simple -- added parse_from_file
239 * Pod::Simple::RTF -- minor style changes, and minor change to the

243 * Pod::Simple::BlackBox -- added experimental new
244 VerbatimFormatted stuff.
245
246

253 * Pod::Simple::PullParserEndToken and ::PullParserStartToken --
254 added ->tag as an alias for ->tagname.
255 * Pod::Simple and Pod::Simple::BlackBox -- added tolerance for
256 "=item * Foo" as a variant syntax for "=item *\n\nFoo". Tests
257 added/changed accordingly.
258 * Pod::Simple::HTML -- added <a name="..."> stuff, and a hack at
259 doing something with X<...>'s.
260
261
