Changes for version 0.27 - 2006-11-01

  • rewrote the lexing of patterns in _fastlex(). Unfortunately this doesn't speed things up as much as I had hoped.
  • eg/assemble now recognises -T to dump timing statistics.
  • file parameter in add_file() may accept a single scalar (or a list, as before).
  • rs parameter in new() was not recognised as an alias for input_record_separator,
  • anchor_string_absolute as a parameter to new() would not have worked correctly.
  • a couple of anchor_<mumble>() methods would not have worked correctly.
  • Added MANIFEST.SKIP, now that the module is under version control.
  • Broke out the debug tests into a separate file (t/09_debug.t).
  • cmp_ok() tests that tested equality were replaced by is().
  • tests in t/03_str.t transformed to a data-driven approach, in order to slim down the size of the distribution tarball.
  • Typo spotted in the documentation by Stephan (bug #20425).
