However, as a +side effect, some features like $SECONDS and the time builtin gained +(nominal) nanosecond precision. + +The zsh/zutil module's zparseopts builtin learnt a -v option which can +be used to specify the array of arguments to parse instead of $@. + +The zparseopts builtin also learnt a -G option which enables GNU-style +argument parsing ('--opt=arg', etc.). + Changes since 5.8.1 ------------------- |
