- runx() is now correctly in @EXPORT_OK. Many thanks
to Elliot "clonezone" Shank for spotting this in
RT #37793.
- Added exports test case.
0.14 Sat Jul 19 00:26:01 AEST 2008
- We should now recognise "not implemented on this architecture"
POSIX errors from Perl 5.11.0
- Fixed an invalid specification of resources in META.yml.
0.13 Thu Jul 17 20:36:42 AEST 2008
- Added examples directory with examples.
- Updated manifest to include error message regession tests.
- Test::Kwalitee is now marked as an author-only test.
- Added tests for correct handling of 32-bit values in
win32.t. Corrected documentation regarding Win32 exitval
size. Thanks to Jan Dubois for alerting me to the 32-bitness
of Windows exit values.
- Added tests to ensure that newlines are properly stripped
with single-arg system and capture.
- Pod and Pod Coverage tests are now marked as author-only.
- Added perl core identical rules for determining the Windows
shell.
- Added META.yml resources, including blog, bugtracker,
forum, and repository.
- Additional tests to ensure returns from capture() are
properly tainted (when running in taint mode).
- Added systemx() and capturex() that _never_ invoke the
shell. Thanks to ikegami for prodding me on these.
(RT #37683)
0.12 Fri Jun 6 17:15:52 AEST 2008

the Windows-specific notes section of the documentation.
- Implemented capture(), which is the equivalent
of run() for backticks.

thanks to Jacinta Richardson.

- LICENSE file added to distribution.
- Moved to Module::Install for build system.

(RT #34896)
- Updated t/07_taint.t to not fail on systems that have
zero-length environment strings.

complications on systems where SIGINT is masked.
- All dependencies now explicitly stated in Makefile.PL.

environment, and provides helpful diagnostics if found.

documentation.
