+A NOTE ON THE CHANGELOG:
+Starting in early 2011, Tcl source code has been under the management of
+fossil, hosted at http://core.tcl.tk/tcl/ .  Fossil presents a "Timeline"
+view of changes made that is superior in every way to a hand edited log file.
+Because of this, many Tcl developers are now out of the habit of maintaining
+this log file.  You may still find useful things in it, but the Timeline is
+a better first place to look now.

+	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
+	Existing code that was using the old versions and working around the
+	limitations will now need to do far less. The -maxlen option now has

+	Tcl_SetNotifier() change.
+
+2013-07-02  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>

+2013-06-18  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclEvent.c: Bug [3611974]: InitSubsystems multiple thread
+	issue.
+
+2013-06-17  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>

+
+2013-06-09  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclCompCmdsSZ.c (TclCompileTryCmd): [Bug 779d38b996]:
+	Rewrote the [try] compiler to generate better code in some cases and
+	to behave correctly in others; when an error happens during the
+	processing of an exception-trap clause or a finally clause, the
+	*original* return options are now captured in a -during option, even
+	when fully compiled.
+
+2013-06-05  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclExecute.c (INST_EXPAND_DROP): [Bugs 2835313, 3614226]:
+	New opcode to allow resetting the stack to get rid of an expansion,

+	* generic/tclCompile.c, generic/tclCompCmds.c: Adjusted the compilers
+	for [break] and [continue] to get stack cleanup right in the majority
+	of cases.
+	* tests/for.test (for-7.*): Set of tests for these evil cases.
+
+2013-06-04  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* unix/tcl.m4: Eliminate NO_VIZ macro as current zlib uses HAVE_HIDDEN
+	instead. One more last-moment fix for FreeBSD by Pietro Cerutti
+
+2013-06-03  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclExecute.c: fix for perf bug detected by Kieran
+	(https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/comp.lang.tcl/vfpI3bc-DkQ),
+	diagnosed by dgp to be a close relative of [Bug 781585], which was
+	fixed by commit	[f46fb50cb3]. This bug was introduced by myself in
+	commit [cbfe055d8c].
+
+2013-06-03  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileBreakCmd, TclCompileContinueCmd):
+	Added code to allow [break] and [continue] to be issued as a jump (in
+	the most common cases) rather than using the more expensive exception
+	processing path in the bytecode engine. [Bug 3614226]: Partial fix for
+	the issues relating to cleaning up the stack when dealing with [break]
+	and [continue].
+
+2013-05-27 Harald Oehlmann  <oehhar@users.sf.net>
+
+	* library/msgcat/msgcat.tcl: [Bug 3036566]: Also get locale from

+	Bumped msgcat version to 1.5.2
+
+2013-05-22  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+	* tclCompile.c: Removed duplicate const qualifier causing the HP
+	native cc to error out.
+
+2013-05-22  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclUtf.c (TclUtfCasecmp): [Bug 3613609]: Replace problematic
+	uses of strcasecmp with a proper UTF-8-aware version. Affects both
+	[lsearch -nocase] and [lsort -nocase].
+
+2013-05-22  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* doc/file.n: [Bug 3613671]: Added note to portability section on the
+	fact that [file owned] does not produce useful results on Windows.
+
+2013-05-20  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* unix/tclUnixFCmd.c (DefaultTempDir): [Bug 3613567]: Corrected logic
+	for checking return code of access() system call, which was inverted.
+
+2013-05-19  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* unix/tcl.m4:     Fix for FreeBSD, and remove support for older
+	* unix/configure:  FreeBSD versions. Patch by Pietro Cerutti.
+
+2013-05-18  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclCompCmdsGR.c: Split tclCompCmds.c again to keep size of
+	code down.
+
+2013-05-16  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclBasic.c: Add panic in order to detect incompatible
+	mingw32 sys/stat.h and sys/time.h headers.
+
+2013-05-13  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* compat/zlib/*: Upgrade to zlib 1.2.8
+
+2013-05-10  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	Optimizations and general bytecode generation improvements.
+	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileAppendCmd, TclCompileLappendCmd):
+	(TclCompileReturnCmd): Make these generate bytecode in more cases.
+	(TclCompileListCmd): Make this able to push a literal when it can.
+	* generic/tclCompile.c (TclSetByteCodeFromAny, PeepholeOptimize):
+	Added checks to see if we can apply some simple cross-command-boundary
+	optimizations, and defined a small number of such optimizations.
+	(TclCompileScript): Added the special ability to compile the list
+	command with expansion ([list {*}blah]) into bytecode that does not
+	call an external command.
+
+2013-05-06  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclStubInit.c: Add support for Cygwin64, which has a 64-bit
+	* generic/tclDecls.h: "long" type. Binary compatibility with win64
+	requires that all stub entries use 32-bit long's, therefore the need
+	for various wrapper functions/macros. For Tcl 9 a better solution is
+	needed, but that cannot be done without introducing binary
+	incompatibility.
+
+2013-04-30  Andreas Kupries  <andreask@activestate.com>
+
+	* library/platform/platform.tcl (::platform::LibcVersion):
+	* library/platform/pkgIndex.tcl: Followup to the 2013-01-30 change.

+
+2013-04-29  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileArraySetCmd): Generate better code
+	when the list of things to set is a literal.
+
+2013-04-25  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclDecls.h: Implement Tcl_NewBooleanObj, Tcl_DbNewBooleanObj
+	and Tcl_SetBooleanObj as macros using Tcl_NewIntObj, Tcl_DbNewLongObj
+	and Tcl_SetIntObj. Starting with Tcl 8.5, this is exactly the same, it
+	only eliminates code duplication.
+	* generic/tclInt.h: Eliminate use of NO_WIDE_TYPE everywhere: It's
+	exactly the same as TCL_WIDE_INT_IS_LONG
+
+2013-04-19  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclDecls.h: Implement many Tcl_*Var* functions and
+	Tcl_GetIndexFromObj as (faster/stack-saving) macros around resp their
+	Tcl_*Var*2 equivalent and Tcl_GetIndexFromObjStruct.
+
+2013-04-12  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclDecls.h: Implement Tcl_Pkg* functions as
+	(faster/stack-saving) macros around Tcl_Pkg*Ex functions.
+
+2013-04-08  Don Porter  <dgp@users.sourceforge.net>
+
+	* generic/regc_color.c:	[Bug 3610026]: Stop crash when the number of
+	* generic/regerrs.h:	"colors" in a regular expression overflows a
+	* generic/regex.h:	short int.  Thanks to Heikki Linnakangas for
+	* generic/regguts.h:	the report and the patch.
+	* tests/regexp.test:
+
+2013-04-04  Reinhard Max  <max@suse.de>
+
+	* library/http/http.tcl (http::geturl): Allow URLs that don't have a
+	path, but a query query, e.g. http://example.com?foo=bar
+	* Bump the http package to 2.8.7.
+

+
+	* library/platform/platform.tcl (::platform::LibcVersion): See

+
+	* generic/tclOOStubLib.c: Restrict the stub library to only use
+	* generic/tclTomMathStubLib.c: Tcl_PkgRequireEx, Tcl_ResetResult and

+
+2013-01-04  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclEnsemble.c (CompileBasicNArgCommand): Added very simple
+	compiler (which just compiles to a normal invoke of the implementation
+	command) for many ensemble subcommands where we can prove that there
+	is no way for scripts to detect the difference even through error
+	handling or [info level]/[info frame]. This improves the code produced
+	from some ensembles (e.g., [info], [string]) to the point where the

+
+	* generic/tclExecute.c (TEBCresume:INST_INVOKE_REPLACE):
+	* generic/tclEnsemble.c (TclCompileEnsemble): Added new mechanism to

+
+2013-01-02  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclEnsemble.c:  Remove stray calls to Tcl_Alloc and friends:

+
+2012-11-13  Joe Mistachkin  <joe@mistachkin.com>

+2012-11-06  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	* library/http/http.tcl (http::Finish): [Bug 3581754]: Ensure that
+	callbacks are done at most once to prevent problems with timeouts on a
+	keep-alive connection (combined with reentrant http package use)
+	causing excessive stack growth. Not a fix for the underlying problem,

+	Bump http package to 2.8.5.
+
+2012-11-05  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	Added bytecode compilation of many Tcl commands. Some of these are
+	total compilations and some are only partial (i.e., only compile in
+	some cases). The (sub-)commands affected are:
+	* array: exists, set, unset
+	* dict: create, exists, merge
+	* format: (simple cases only)
+	* info: commands, coroutine, level, object
+	* info object: class, isa object, namespace
+	* namespace: current, code, qualifiers, tail, which
+	* regsub: (only cases convertable to simple [string map])
+	* self: (only no-argument and [self object] cases)
+	* string: first, last, map, range
+	* tailcall:

+	[This was work originally done on the 'dkf-compile-misc-info' branch.]
+
+2012-11-05  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	IMPLEMENTATION OF TIP#413
+
+	Align the [string trim] and [string is space] commands, such that
+	[string trim] by default trims all characters for which [string is
+	space] returns 1, augmented with the NUL character.
+
+	* generic/tclUtf.c: Add NEL, BOM and two more characters to [string is
+	space]
+	* generic/tclCmdMZ.c: Modify [string trim] for Unicode modifications.
+	* generic/regc_locale.c: Regexp engine must match [string is space]
+	* doc/string.n
+	* tests/string.test
+	***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY***
+	Code that relied on characters not previously trimmed being not
+	removed will notice a difference; it is believed that this is rare,
+	but a workaround to get the behavior in Tcl 8.5 is to use " \t\n\r" as
+	an explicit trim set.

+2012-10-23  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclInt.h:       Add "flags" parameter from Tcl_LoadFile to

+
+2012-10-17  Miguel Sofer  <msofer@users.sf.net>

+
+2012-10-16  Donal K. Fellows  <dkf@users.sf.net>
+
+	IMPLEMENTATION OF TIP#405
+
+	New commands for applying a transformation to the elements of a list
+	to produce another list (the [lmap] command) and to the mappings of a
+	dictionary to produce another dictionary (the [dict map] command). In
+	both cases, a [continue] will cause the skipping of an element/pair,
+	and a [break] will terminate the construction early and successfully.
+
+	* generic/tclCmdAH.c (Tcl_LmapObjCmd, TclNRLmapCmd): Implementation of
+	the new [lmap] command, based on (and sharing much of) [foreach].
+	* generic/tclDictObj.c (DictMapNRCmd): Implementation of the new [dict
+	map] subcommand, based on (and sharing much of) [dict for].
+	* generic/tclCompCmds.c (TclCompileLmapCmd, TclCompileDictMapCmd):
+	Compilation engines for [lmap] and [dict map].
+
+	IMPLEMENTATION OF TIP#400
+
+	* generic/tclZlib.c: Allow the specification of a compression
+	dictionary (a binary blob used to seed the compression engine) in both
+	streams and channel transformations. Also some reorganization to allow
+	for getting gzip header dictionaries and controlling buffering levels
+	in channel transformations (allowing a trade-off between formal
+	correctness and speed).
+	(Tcl_ZlibStreamSetCompressionDictionary): New C API to allow setting
+	the compression dictionary without using a Tcl script.
+
+2012-10-14  Jan Nijtmans  <nijtmans@users.sf.net>
+
+	* generic/tclDictObj.c: [Bug 3576509]: ::tcl::Bgerror crashes with

+.SH NAME
+miniunzip - uncompress and examine ZIP archives
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B miniunzip
+.RI [ -exvlo ]
+zipfile [ files_to_extract ] [-d tempdir]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B minizip
+is a simple tool which allows the extraction of compressed file
+archives in the ZIP format used by the MS-DOS utility PKZIP.  It was
+written as a demonstration of the
+.IR zlib (3)
+library and therefore lack many of the features of the
+.IR unzip (1)
+program.
+.SH OPTIONS
+A number of options are supported.  With the exception of
+.BI \-d\  tempdir
+these must be supplied before any
+other arguments and are:
+.TP
+.BI \-l\ ,\ \-\-v
+List the files in the archive without extracting them.
+.TP
+.B \-o
+Overwrite files without prompting for confirmation.
+.TP
+.B \-x
+Extract files (default).
+.PP
+The
+.I zipfile
+argument is the name of the archive to process. The next argument can be used
+to specify a single file to extract from the archive.
+
+Lastly, the following option can be specified at the end of the command-line:
+.TP
+.BI \-d\  tempdir
+Extract the archive in the directory
+.I tempdir
+rather than the current directory.
+.SH SEE ALSO
+.BR minizip (1),
+.BR zlib (3),
+.BR unzip (1).
+.SH AUTHOR
+This program was written by Gilles Vollant.  This manual page was
+written by Mark Brown <broonie@sirena.org.uk>. The -d tempdir option
+was added by Dirk Eddelbuettel <edd@debian.org>.

+program.
+.SH OPTIONS
+The first argument supplied is the name of the ZIP archive to create or
+.RI -o
+in which case it is ignored and the second argument treated as the
+name of the ZIP file.  If the ZIP file already exists it will be
+overwritten.
+.PP
+Subsequent arguments specify a list of files to place in the ZIP
+archive.  If none are specified then an empty archive will be created.

 string.  Conceptually, a string is an array of Unicode characters, while a
 byte-array is an array of 8-bit quantities with no implicit meaning.
 Accessor functions are provided to get the string representation of a
-byte-array or to convert an arbitrary object to a byte-array.  Obtaining the

+.PP
+When an extension library is going to use the C interface exposed by TclOO, it
+should use \fBTcl_OOInitStubs\fR to initialize its access to that interface
+from within its \fI*\fB_Init\fR (or \fI*\fB_SafeInit\fR) function, passing in
+the \fIinterp\fR that was passed into that routine as context. If the result
+of calling \fBTcl_OOInitStubs\fR is NULL, the initialization failed and an
+error message will have been left in the interpreter's result. Otherwise, the
+initialization succeeded and the TclOO API may thereafter be used; the
+version of the TclOO API is returned.
+.PP
+When using this function, either the C #define symbol \fBUSE_TCLOO_STUBS\fR
+should be defined and your library code linked against the Tcl stub library,
+or that #define symbol should \fInot\fR be defined and your library code
+linked against the Tcl main library directly.

+.PP
+If you are linking against the Tcl 8.5 forward compatibility package for
+TclOO, \fIonly\fR the stub-enabled configuration is supported and you should

+integrated part of the main Tcl stub library in Tcl 8.6.

+.SH NAME
+lmap \- Iterate over all elements in one or more lists and collect results
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+\fBlmap \fIvarname list body\fR
+.br
+\fBlmap \fIvarlist1 list1\fR ?\fIvarlist2 list2 ...\fR? \fIbody\fR
+.BE
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+The \fBlmap\fR command implements a loop where the loop variable(s) take on
+values from one or more lists, and the loop returns a list of results
+collected from each iteration.
+.PP
+In the simplest case there is one loop variable, \fIvarname\fR, and one list,
+\fIlist\fR, that is a list of values to assign to \fIvarname\fR. The
+\fIbody\fR argument is a Tcl script. For each element of \fIlist\fR (in order
+from first to last), \fBlmap\fR assigns the contents of the element to
+\fIvarname\fR as if the \fBlindex\fR command had been used to extract the
+element, then calls the Tcl interpreter to execute \fIbody\fR. If execution of
+the body completes normally then the result of the body is appended to an
+accumulator list. \fBlmap\fR returns the accumulator list.
+.PP
+In the general case there can be more than one value list (e.g., \fIlist1\fR
+and \fIlist2\fR), and each value list can be associated with a list of loop
+variables (e.g., \fIvarlist1\fR and \fIvarlist2\fR). During each iteration of
+the loop the variables of each \fIvarlist\fR are assigned consecutive values
+from the corresponding \fIlist\fR. Values in each \fIlist\fR are used in order
+from first to last, and each value is used exactly once. The total number of
+loop iterations is large enough to use up all the values from all the value
+lists. If a value list does not contain enough elements for each of its loop
+variables in each iteration, empty values are used for the missing elements.
+.PP
+The \fBbreak\fR and \fBcontinue\fR statements may be invoked inside
+\fIbody\fR, with the same effect as in the \fBfor\fR and \fBforeach\fR
+commands. In these cases the body does not complete normally and the result is
+not appended to the accumulator list.
+.SH EXAMPLES
+.PP
+Zip lists together:
+.PP
+.CS
+set list1 {a b c d}
+set list2 {1 2 3 4}
+set zipped [\fBlmap\fR a $list1 b $list2 {list $a $b}] 
+# The value of zipped is "{a 1} {b 2} {c 3} {d 4}"
+.CE
+.PP
+Filter a list to remove odd values:
+.PP
+.CS
+set values {1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8}
+proc isEven {n} {expr {($n % 2) == 0}}
+set goodOnes [\fBlmap\fR x $values {expr {
+    [isEven $x] ? $x : [continue]
+}}]
+# The value of goodOnes is "2 4 6 8"
+.CE
+.PP
+Take a prefix from a list based on the contents of the list:
+.PP
+.CS
+set values {8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1}
+proc isGood {counter} {expr {$n > 3}}
+set prefix [\fBlmap\fR x $values {expr {
+    [isGood $x] ? $x : [break]
+}}]
+# The value of prefix is "8 7 6 5 4"

 package by that name, and uses it if it is found.  If several
 different files have been \fBload\fRed with different versions of
 the package, Tcl picks the file that was loaded first.
+.PP
+If \fB\-global\fR is specified preceding the filename, all symbols
+found in the shared library are exported for global use by other
+libraries. The option \fB\-lazy\fR delays the actual loading of
+symbols until their first actual use. The options may be abbreviated.
+The option \fB\-\-\fR indicates the end of the options, and should
+be used if you wish to use a filename which starts with \fB\-\fR
+and you provide a packageName to the \fBload\fR command.
+.PP
+On platforms which do not support the \fB\-global\fR or \fB\-lazy\fR
+options, the options still exist but have no effect. Note that use
+of the \fB\-global\fR or \fB\-lazy\fR option may lead to crashes
+in your application later (in case of symbol conflicts resp. missing
+symbols), which cannot be detected during the \fBload\fR. So, only
+use this when you know what you are doing, you will not get a nice
+error message when something is wrong with the loaded library.
