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. +============================================================================ + +2013-09-19 Don Porter <dgp@users.sourceforge.net> + + *** 8.6.1 TAGGED FOR RELEASE *** + + * generic/tcl.h: Bump version number to 8.6.1. + * library/init.tcl: + * unix/configure.in: + * win/configure.in: + * unix/tcl.spec: + * README: + + * unix/configure: autoconf-2.59 + * win/configure: + +2013-09-19 Donal Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net> + + * doc/next.n (METHOD SEARCH ORDER): Bug [3606943]: Corrected + description of method search order. + +2013-09-18 Donal Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net> + + Bump TclOO version to 1.0.1 for release. + +2013-09-17 Donal Fellows <dkf@users.sf.net> + + * generic/tclBinary.c (BinaryEncodeUu, BinaryDecodeUu): [Bug 2152292]: + Corrected implementation of the core of uuencode handling so that the + line length processing is correctly applied. + ***POTENTIAL INCOMPATIBILITY*** + Existing code that was using the old versions and working around the + limitations will now need to do far less.
