23 years agoMacOS Classic catdir() rewrite from Thomas Wegner
Jarkko Hietaniemi [Mon, 15 Oct 2001 12:58:24 +0000]
MacOS Classic catdir() rewrite from Thomas Wegner
(backward incompatibility, but a deliberate one,
the old version simply is broken in its logic),
also documentation updates, and as suggested replicated
the File::Spec::Unix documentation updates also on the
File::Spec documentation.

TODO: there seems to be duplication of documentation
between File::Spec and File::Spec::Unix.  I think
the ::Unix should be left only with specific UNIXisms,
and all the generic documentation should be in ::Spec.

23 years agoRewrite mktables from scratch.
Jarkko Hietaniemi [Sat, 13 Oct 2001 20:54:17 +0000]
Rewrite mktables from scratch.
- Cleaner.
- Faster: 15-20 seconds as opposed to several minutes.
- More dynamic: the names of the various categories
  such as the linebreak ones are dynamic, not static.
- Is.pl: long names for the general category properties
  are now available.
- Ranges (<... ,First>, <..., Last>) from the general
  categories work now.
- No more mktables.PL because the mktables.PL is not
  and never has been run to create a mktables.
- syllables.txt and Is/Syl*.pl removed: non-standard
  (not part of the Unicode), and the whole concept is
  being reworked (http://syllabary.sourceforge.net/),
  the old way wouldn't even work with the new Syllables.txt
  (it would result in 1000+ new categories)
