49 enough reports that I could work out the pattern.)
50
512006-01-18 Allison Randal <allison@perl.org>
52 * Release 3.04
53
54 Applied test patches for Perl core integration from Steve Peters.
55

72 * Release 3.02
73
74 Just fixing some typos in the CSS generated by Pod::Simple:HTMLBatch.

76
772004-05-24 Sean M. Burke <sburke@cpan.org>
78 * Release 3.01
79
80 No big changes to the main modules, but there's many changes to
81 the important Pod::Simple::HTML module.
82
83 Also, new modules:
84 Pod::Simple::HTMLBatch
85 Pod::Simple::HTMLLegacy
86 Pod::Simple::Progress
87 Pod::Simple::Search
88 and tests for these (well, most).
89
90 Some prettying up of the Makefile.PL.
91
92 The test 00about.t is a bit more careful and verbose now.
93
94 The docs are still incomplete, esp. for Pod::Simple::HTML and
95 Pod::Simple::HTMLBatch, which I hope to improve quite soon.
96
97
98
992004-05-07 Sean M. Burke <sburke@cpan.org>
100 * Release 2.06
101
102 Allison Randal brilliantly refactors a huge monolithic sub in
103 Blackbox.pm. Code is now actually sanely readable!
104
105 I add the new option-attributes fullstop_space_harden and
106 codes_in_verbatim, and the two methods abandon_output_string and
107 abandon_output_fh. Not yet documented.
108
109 New test fullstop_spaces.t and new corpus document
110 greek_iso_8859_7.pod.
111
112 Another version should be forthcoming in a few days that has the
113 new Pod::Simple::HTML stuff in it.
114
115 Note to self: document =extend and =encoding in perlpodspec ASAP!
116
117
1182003-11-04 Sean M. Burke <sburke@cpan.org>
119 * Release 2.05 -- bugfix version
120
121 In an attempt to stop Perl 5.6 versions from going completely
122 crazy, I've tried to basically turn off all Unicode/utf8 support
123 under 5.6. Under 5.8 and above, Unicode should work fine, and
124 under 5.6, all Unicode characters should be replaced with a little
125 "can't render" symbol, either a "ยค" or a "?".
126 Many many thanks to Jarkko Hietaniemi for helping out.
127
128 (Works under 5.005 now too?)
129
1302003-10-10 Sean M. Burke <sburke@cpan.org>
131 * Release 2.04 -- minor bugfix version
132
133 * Added some code to insulate Pod::Simple to runtime changes in
134 the value of $/. Thanks to Iain Truskett for catching this.
135 * Added FILENO method to TiedOutFH.pm, to work quietly under some
136 perls. Thanks to Jochen Stenzel for catching this.
137 * Fixed some tests that erroneously failed under some 5.6's
138 because of chdir()s in *.t files messing up @INC Thanks to many
139 who caught this, including Rocco Caputo.
140
1412003-09-07 Sean M. Burke <sburke@cpan.org>
142 * Release 2.03 -- minor upgrade
143 * A =head[1234] command now closes any currently open =over, and
144 warns.
145 * Fixing a few obscure bugs, including one to do with the
146 Makefile.
147 * Added some tests for those bugs.
148
1492003-09-02 Sean M. Burke <sburke@cpan.org>
150 * Release 2.02 -- fixing a testing bug
151 * Autrijus Tang found a silly bug of mine in corpustest.t's
152 testing of corpus/t/nonesuch.txt. Fixed,
153 * I add encoding_nonesuch.t to test corpus/t/nonesuch.txt better.
154
155
1562003-09-01 Sean M. Burke <sburke@cpan.org>
157 * Release 2.01
158 * Moved all version numbers up to 2.01 for reasons of Tibetan
159 numerology.
160
161 * Implemented =encoding. Thanks a million to Jarkko, Autrijus,
162 Dan Kogai, and many others for their help, patience, and
163 encouragement.
164
165 It's not yet documented, but see ./t/corpus/*.txt for examples at
166 least.
167
168 * Added 'use utf8' to all the modules. Byebye perl-5.005
169 compatibility, hello decent perl-5.6 compatibility.

172
1732003-09-01 Sean M. Burke <sburke@cpan.org>
174 * Release 0.98
175 * At Michael Schwern's suggestion, a list that begins with a
176 "=item [number]" line where number isn't a 1, is no longer
177 treated as an error, but instead is silently coerced into being a
178 text-item list, just as if it were "=item wubble" or whatever.
179
1802003-08-12 Sean M. Burke <sburke@cpan.org>
181 * Release 0.97
182 * Loooking goooooood. Not smelling so much like beta anymore!
183 * I think this might be the last version before I go
184 putting "use utf8" all over the place.
185
186 * Added placefolders for "=encoding" support. If you use
187 "=encoding", you'll get an error about "not yet implemented"
188 instead of "unknown directive".
189
190 * Rewrote Pod::Simple::Pullparser's get_title, and added
191 get_version, get_author, and get_description. Documented them.
192 Thanks to Graham Barr for contributing an initial get_title and
193 then being patient while I seemed to do nothing with it for months
194 on end!
195
196 * More tests.
197
198 Otherwise just minor changes since last version:
199 * Fixed error in Pod::Simple::RTF.
200 * Added new but undocumented methods to Pod::Simple:
201 unaccept_directive(s) unaccept_target(s) unaccept_code(s)
202 * Corrected '=back without =open' error to '=back without =over'
203 * A little tweaking to the _verbatim_format code.
204 * Dump routines may use \x{NN} instead of \xNN format.
205 * Pod::Simple::HTML now uses VerbatimFormatted
206 * A few changes ot DEBUG messages -- nothing you'd normally see.
207
2082002-11-19 Sean M. Burke <sburke@cpan.org>
209 * Release 0.96
210 * Still kinda sorta beta.
211
212 * Much much more docs in this version. Only a few feature
213 changes:
214
215 * Added any_errata_seen to Pod::Simple. Should've been in there
216 ages ago. Oops!

218 * Added is_tagname / is_tag to Pod::Simple::PullParserStartToken
219 and Pod::Simple::PullParserEndToken
220 * Added RTFDEFLANG stuff to Pod::Simple::RTF.

230 * Pod::Simple::RTF -- minor style changes, and minor change to the

235 VerbatimFormatted stuff.

244 * Pod::Simple::PullParserEndToken and ::PullParserStartToken --
245 added ->tag as an alias for ->tagname.
246 * Pod::Simple and Pod::Simple::BlackBox -- added tolerance for
247 "=item * Foo" as a variant syntax for "=item *\n\nFoo". Tests
248 added/changed accordingly.
249 * Pod::Simple::HTML -- added <a name="..."> stuff, and a hack at
250 doing something with X<...>'s.
251
