CHANGES TO REMIND
* VERSION 4.0 Patch 0 - 2022-??-??
- MAJOR NEW FEATURE: remind: Remind output can effectively be
translated into other languages at run-time. A number of system
variables let you translate English words to another language, and a
mechanism for altering the substitution filter at run-time lets you
translate its output so the results are idiomatic. See the man page
sections "RUN-TIME SUPPORT FOR OTHER LANGUAGES", "RUN-TIME
MODIFICATION OF THE SUBSTITUTION FILTER" and "LANGUAGE PACKS".
- NEW FEATURE: remind: Add the pad() built-in function
- NEW FEATURE: tkremind: Day numbers can be displayed left-aligned,
centered or right-aligned.
- IMPROVEMENT: contrib/remind-conf-mode: The Emacs syntax-highlighter
has been updated with the latest system variables and functions
and has been made case-insensitive.
- IMPROVEMENT: remind, rem2ps: Use link-time optimization with gcc if
possible.
- IMPROVEMENT: remind: Print better diagnostics when errors occur inside
a user-defined function. We now show the stack trace to make it easier
to figure out where the error actually is.
- CHANGE: Add a "q" sub-option to the "-p", "-pp", and "-ppp" options.
This causes Remind *not* to remove the %"...%" marker sequence from
remind bodies.
- BUG FIX: Fix the overflow-detection functions so they work with link-time
optimization. The previous versions would be optimized away.
- BUG FIX: Warn if the arguments to the "-@" option are out of range.
Problem noted by Ian! D. Allen.
- BUG FIX: Always interpret $Latitude and $Longitude input values in the
"C" locale. (We do accept localized input, but warn.)
- BUG FIX: Fix many spelling mistakes caught by Jens Schleusener
* VERSION 3.4 Patch 2 - 2022-03-14
- NEW FEATURE: remind: Add syntactic sugar to simplify some common
