Changes for version 0.18 - 2015-03-31

  • [Internal] Reimplement parse_cmdline() using regex instead of C-like char-by-char parsing.
  • [Removed feature] Remove option/parameter 'preserve_quotes' and 'word_breaks' because they are never used in my applications/other libraries (and they complicate the new regex-based parsing implementation). Extra word-breaking character used is always '=' and that is now the behavior.
  • [ux] Variable syntaxes in word in parse_cmdline() (like '$HOME/foo.txt') are now substituted with variable values from environment variables, except for the current word. Similarly, tildes like '~/todo.txt' is now replaced with user home directory except for the current word. This makes completing a command like this works: 'list-org-todos ~/organizer/todo.org --has-tags <tab>' (the applications now see the tildes already expanded so they do not have to parse it themselves).
