-1.01 Mon Sep 8 18:09:18 EST 1997
-
- - changed "quotemeta" to "quotemeta $_" to work
- around bug in Perl 5.002 and 5.003

-1.10 Tue Sep 30 17:23:23 EST 1997
-
- - reworked extract_quotelike to correct handling of some obscure cases
-
-
-1.21 Sat Oct 4 17:21:54 EST 1997
-
- - synchronised with Parse::RecDescent distribution (version number
- will now reflect that package)
-
-1.23 Fri Oct 17 10:26:38 EST 1997
-
- - changed behaviour in scalar and void contexts. Scalar contexts
- now return only the extracted string. Void contexts now remove
- the extracted string from the first argument (or $_).

-1.24
-
- - changed behaviour in scalar contexts. Scalar contexts
- now return the extracted string _and_ remove it from the
- first argument (or $_).
-
- - changed return values on failure (all contexts return undef
- for invalid return fields)
-
- - fixed some lurking bugs with trailing modifier handling
-
- - added :ALL tag to simplify wholesale importing of functions
-
- - fixed serious bug with embedded division operators ("/")
- This now also allows the ?...? form of pattern matching!
-
-1.35 Wed Jun 24 09:53:31 1998
-
- - fixed handling of :: quantifiers in extract_variable()
-
- - numerous trivial lexical changes to make xemacs happy
-
-
-1.36 Tue Jul 14 12:26:04 1998
-
- - Reinstated POD file missing from previous distribution
-
- - Added undocumented fourth parameter to extract_codeblock
- so as to correctly handle (?) and (s?) modifiers in
- RecDescent grammars.
-
-
-1.40 Tue Aug 4 13:54:52 1998
-
- - Added (optional) handling of embedded quoted text to
- extract_delimited (see revised entry in Balanced.pod)
-
- - Added extract_tagged which extracts text between arbitrary,
- optionally nested start and end tags (see new entry in
- Balanced.pod).
-
- - Added delimited_pat which builds a pattern which matches a
- string delimited by any of the delimiters specified (see new
- entry in Balanced.pod).
-
- - Added test.pl
-
-
-1.41 Mon Aug 10 14:51:50 1998
-
- - Reinstated change to extract_codeblock from 1.36 which were
- mysteriously lost in 1.40
-
-
-1.50 Thu Aug 27 09:20:19 1998
-
- - Improved the structure of the regex generated by
- delimited_pat (and used in extract_delimited). It's
- considerably more complex, but also more robust and
- much faster in the worst case.
-
- - Altered extract_variable to accept whitespace in variables,
- e.g. '$ a -> {'b'} -> [2]'

+Revision history for Perl extension Text-Balanced.
+
+2.02 Thu 20 Jul 2009
+ - Fixed the mixed "Damian Conway <adamk@cpan.org>" AUTHOR setting.
+ For the record, I am NOT the author, I'm just the maintainer.
+ Unfortunately, Makefile.PL does not have a MAINTAINER setting and
+ this way all the emails about this module come to me.
+
+2.01 Tue 28 Jul 2009
+ - Taken over by Adam Kennedy to move it to a long-term maintenance mode
+ - Removing use warnings to restore 5.005 compatibility
+ - Removing Module::Build for higher back-compatibility
+ - Removing version.pm for higher back-compatibility
+ - use Exporter -> use Exporter () to avoid some pathalogical cases
+ - Upgraded the bundled author tests to be friendlier
+ - Changes order now a more normal reverse chronological
+2.0.0 Wed Dec 20 10:50:24 2006
+ - Added patches from bleadperl version (thanks Rafael!)

- * now handles $#array correctly
+1.99.0 Thu Nov 16 07:32:06 2006
+ - Removed reliance on expensive $& variable (thanks John)
+ - Made Makefile.PL play nice with core versions (thanks Schwern!)

- * Now handles "raw" pattern matches better.
+1.98 Fri May 5 14:58:49 2006
+ - Reinstated full test suite (thanks Steve!)
- - Added support for single strings or qr's as
- 'reject' and 'ignore' args to extract_tagged()
+1.97 Mon May 1 21:58:04 2006

+ (thanks Anthony)
+1.95 Mon Apr 28 00:22:04 2003

+ (thanks Craig)
-1.52 Thu Mar 4 12:43:38 1999
+1.94 Sun Apr 13 02:18:41 2003

+ - Fixed bug in extract_codelike when non-standard delimiters used
- - Fixed a bug with extract_codeblock in "RecDescent" mode

- not "subrule(s)"). Thanks, Jan.
+1.90 Tue Mar 25 11:14:38 2003
+ - Fixed subtle bug in gen_extract_tagged (thanks Martin)

-1.76 Fri Nov 19 06:51:54 1999
+1.77 Mon Nov 22 06:08:23 1999
+ - Fixed major bug in extract_codeblock (would not
+ terminate if there was trailing whitespace)
+ - Improved /.../ pattern parsing within codeblocks
+1.76 Fri Nov 19 06:51:54 1999
- IMPORTANT: Now requires 5.005 or better.
-
- IMPORTANT: Made extract methods sensitive to the pos()
value of the text they are parsing. In other words,
all extract subroutines now act like patterns of the form
/\G.../gc. See documentation for details.
-
- IMPORTANT: Changed semantics of extract_multiple, in line
with the above change, and to simplify the semantics to
something vaguely predictable. See documentation for details.
-
- Added ability to use qr/../'s and raw strings as extractors
in extract_multiple. See documentation.
-
- Added fourth argument to extract_codeblock to allow
outermost brackets to be separately specified. See
documentation for details.
-
- Reimplemented internals of all extraction subroutines
for significant speed-ups (between 100% and 2000%
improvement).
-
- Fixed nasty bug in extract_variable and extract_codeblock
(they were returning prefix as well in scalar context)
-
- Allowed read-only strings to be used as arguments in
scalar contexts.
-
- Renamed delimited_pat to gen-delimited pat (in line with
gen_extract_tagged). Old name still works, but is now deprecated.
-
- - Tweaked all extraction subs so they correctly handle
+ - Tweaked all extraction subs so they correctly handle
zero-length prefix matches after another zero-length match.
