[perl5.git] / ext / Term-ANSIColor / ChangeLog

2009-08-30  Russ Allbery  <rra@stanford.edu>

	* ANSIColor.pm: Version 2.02 released.

	* ANSIColor.pm: Update compatibility matrix to reflect that xterm
	now supports blink.

	* ANSIColor.pm (colorvalid): New function to check whether an
	attribute is known.
	* t/basic.t: Test colorvalid.

2009-07-04  Russ Allbery  <rra@stanford.edu>

	* ANSIColor.pm: Add an example of checking color attributes by
	catching exceptions from color() to the documentation.

	* ANSIColor.pm: Add FAINT as a synonym for DARK and export it when
	constants are requested.
	* t/basic.t: Test faint and FAINT as a synonym for dark/DARK.

	* ANSIColor.pm: Version 2.01 released.

	* t/basic.t: Test error handling in color, colored, and uncolor.

	* ANSIColor.pm (uncolor): When reporting errors for bad escape
	sequences, don't include the leading \e[ or trailing m in the
	error message.

	* ANSIColor.pm: Add section headings to the DESCRIPTION section of
	the module since it's getting rather long.
	(colorstrip): New function to remove ANSI color codes from
	strings.  Thanks, Paul Miller.
	* t/basic.t: New tests for colorstrip.

	* ANSIColor.pm (AUTOLOAD): Untaint $AUTOLOAD, required by Perl
	5.10 when running in taint mode.  Thanks, Tim Bellinghausen.
	* t/basic.t: Two new tests for AUTOLOAD error handling.  Enable
	warnings and taint mode.

2009-02-28  Russ Allbery  <rra@stanford.edu>

	* ANSIColor.pm: Version 2.00 released.

	* Makefile.PL: Add LICENSE to the distribution metadata for Perl
	5.10 and later.

	* ANSIColor.pm: Add explicit return statements instead of relying
	on the implicit return of the last expression.  Use all caps for
	all global variables.

	* ANSIColor.pm: Add the new functions to a :pushpop export tag.
	(PUSHCOLOR): New function that stores in an internal stack the
	attributes that are being set.
	(POPCOLOR): New function that pops the attributes being set and
	sets the attributes previously found on the stack.
	(LOCALCOLOR): New function that surrounds its argument in
	PUSHCOLOR and POPCOLOR.
	(AUTOLOAD): If $AUTOLOCAL is set, surround all color constants
	with an implicit LOCALCOLOR.
	* t/basic.t: Test PUSHCOLOR, POPCOLOR, and LOCALCOLOR.

	* t/pod-spelling.t: Rewrite to use Test::More.  Support and prefer
	aspell.

	* ANSIColor.pm: Fix additional spelling errors and rewrap the POD
	documentation to a 74-character margin.

	* t/basic.t: Rewrite to use Test::More.
	* t/pod.t: Likewise.

	* ANSIColor.pm (AUTOLOAD): If ANSI_COLORS_DISABLED is set, return
	the stringified arguments rather than creating a sub.  This allows
	colors to work later if ANSI_COLORS_DISABLED is unset rather than
	making its effects permanent.  It also avoids adding a reset
	escape sequence when $AUTORESET and ANSI_COLORS_DISABLED are both
	set.

2008-09-14  Russ Allbery  <rra@stanford.edu>

	* ANSIColor.pm: Add faint as a synonym for dark and improve the
	documentation of text attributes.

	* t/pod-spelling.t: New check to spell-check POD documentation
	using ispell with Pod::Spell.
	* ANSIColor.pm: Fix spelling and markup errors in documentation
	and add stop-words where appropriate.

	* ANSIColor.pm: Version 1.12 released.

2007-03-23  Russ Allbery  <rra@stanford.edu>

	* ANSIColor.pm: Use the right syntax for internal POD links.
	Thanks, Rafael Garcia-Suarez.

2007-02-10  Russ Allbery  <rra@stanford.edu>

	* ANSIColor.pm: Add cyan and white to the list of supported
	attributes.  Not sure how I managed to omit them before.

	* ANSIColor.pm: Version 1.11 released.

2006-06-22  Russ Allbery  <rra@stanford.edu>

	* ANSIColor.pm: Clarify in the documentation the behavior of
	terminals when background colors are set across newlines, and
	rewrite some of the examples to avoid doing things that confuse
	the terminal.  Fix a couple of spelling errors.

	* test.pl: Moved to...
	* t/basic.t: ...here.
	* t/pod.t: New test for POD validity.

2005-08-21  Russ Allbery  <rra@stanford.edu>

	* ANSIColor.pm: Version 1.10 released.

	* ANSIColor.pm (colored): Fix the $EACHLINE support to work
	properly with a line consisting solely of "0".  Remove Zenin's
	now-defunct e-mail address from the documentation.
	* test.pl: Test 0 and the empty string in combination with
	$EACHLINE.

	* tests/ansicolor: Add terminal test file from Joe Smith.
	* tests/vt100-torture: Likewise.

	* ANSIColor.pm: Version 1.07 released.

	* ANSIColor.pm: Add PuTTY, Windows telnet, and Cygwin OpenSSH

	the ECMA standard.

2002-12-09  Russ Allbery  <rra@stanford.edu>

	* ANSIColor.pm: Version 1.05 released.

	* ANSIColor.pm: Update the formatting style, add a pointer to the

2002-02-14  Russ Allbery  <rra@stanford.edu>

	* ANSIColor.pm: Add documentation, examples, and diagnostics for
	uncolor.  Document ANSI_COLORS_DISABLED.  Add information about
	the relevant standards for these escape sequences and the
	additional ones that aren't supported by this module.  Add a
	pointer to the relevant standards.  Add a LICENSE section.  Update
	Zenin's e-mail address.

	* ANSIColor.pm (AUTOLOAD): Add support for ANSI_COLORS_DISABLED.
	(color): Likewise.
	(colored): Likewise.

2000-08-06  Russ Allbery  <rra@stanford.edu>

	* ANSIColor.pm: Version 1.03 released.

	* Makefile.PL: Install in the Perl library directory for Perl
	versions >= 5.6.0.

	* test.pl: Added a new test for the array reference syntax for
	colored.

	* ANSIColor.pm: Changed $VERSION to a static string.  Added dark
	to the attributes.  Updated the documentation to include a table
	of supported attributes on different terminal emulators, to add
	dark, to document the new optional way to call colored, and to
	mark the diagnostics as fatal errors or warnings.
	(colored): Allow the attributes to be passed as an initial array
	reference as well as a final list, and for that calling syntax
	take the rest of the arguments as text to be colored.

1998-11-27  Russ Allbery  <rra@stanford.edu>

	* ANSIColor.pm: Version 1.02 released.

	* Makefile.PL: Added a 5.005-only section giving ABSTRACT and
	AUTHOR settings for generating a PPD to go with a binary
	distribution or the Perl Resource Kits.

1998-04-14  Russ Allbery  <rra@stanford.edu>

	* ANSIColor.pm: croak() instead of die() on AUTOLOAD failure to
	get the right error text, fixed a bunch of typos in the
	documentation, added a quote.

1997-12-10  Russ Allbery  <rra@stanford.edu>

	* ANSIColor.pm: Version 1.01 released.

	* ANSIColor.pm (color): Carp::croak() isn't predeclared, so it
	needs parens around its argument.  This bug will only show up in
	versions of Perl >5.004_04 since up until then strict.pm imports
	Carp which predeclares the function.

1997-11-29  Russ Allbery  <rra@stanford.edu>

	* ANSIColor.pm: Version 1.00 released.

	* Makefile.PL: Now gets version information from the module, has
	the correct rules to build a distribution.

	* test.pl: Comments trimmed, minor test modifications.

	* ANSIColor.pm: Changed my e-mail address, fixed to deal correctly
	with trailing delimiters when EACHLINE is being used, die()
	changed to croak() if the caller uses an invalid attribute name,
	getting $VERSION from RCS updated to my current method, source
	detabified.

	* test.pl: Added test for EACHLINE with trailing delimiters.

1997-02-17  Russ Allbery  <rra@stanford.edu>

	* ANSIColor.pm: Version 0.9 released.

	* ANSIColor.pm: Changed the runtime error message to start with an
	uppercase letter, reworked the documentation considerably
	including adding more comparison between the two interfaces,
	fixing some formatting bugs, fixing a typo, adding more
	diagnostics, and generally being more verbose.

1997-01-08  Russ Allbery  <rra@stanford.edu>

	* ANSIColor.pm: Version 0.8 released.

	* test.pl: Fixed the test numbering in the BEGIN block.

	* test.pl: Reformatted and commented to fit my programming style.

	* ANSIColor.pm: Changed the method by which $VERSION is set so
	that it will always have two digits after the decimal point.

	* test.pl: New file.

	* ANSIColor.pm: [Revision 0.7] Changed the codes so that reset is
	always consistantly "\e[0m".

	* ANSIColor.pm: [Revision 0.6] Added $EACHLINE and support to
	colored() for it so that attributes can be reset around every
	newline (or other line delimiter -- we're flexible).  Documented
	this as well.

	* ANSIColor.pm: [Revision 0.5] Changed implementation of the
	constants to autoloaded subs, added the $AUTORESET variable for
	use with the constants, and documented this.

1996-12-07  Russ Allbery  <rra@stanford.edu>

	* ANSIColor.pm: [Revision 0.4] Added POD documentation.

	* ANSIColor.pm: [Revision 0.3] Added constant forms, modified to
	allow a space-separated string of attributes to be passed to
	color() and colored(), added Zenin to the credits.

1996-12-04  Russ Allbery  <rra@stanford.edu>

	* ANSIColor.pm: [Revision 0.2] Changed return syntax and check for
	the null attribute string.

	* ANSIColor.pm: New file.
