@@ -4,6 +4,28 @@ CHANGES FROM PREVIOUS VERSIONS OF ZSH Note also the list of incompatibilities in the README file. +Changes from 5.2 to 5.3 +----------------------- + +It is possible to enable character width support for Unicode 9 by +configuring with `--enable-unicode9'; this compiles in some additional +tables. At some point this support may move into a module, in which +case the configure option will be changed to cause the module to be +permanently loaded. This option is not useful unless your terminal also +supports Unicode 9. + +The new word modifier ':P' computes the physical path of the argument. +It is different from the existing ':a' modifier which always resolves +'/before/here/../after' to '/before/after', and differs from the +existing ':A' modifier which resolves symlinks only after 'here/..' is +removed, even when /before/here is itself a symbolic link. It is +recommended to review uses of ':A' and, if appropriate, convert them +to ':P' as soon as compatibility with 5.2 is no longer a requirement. + +The output of "typeset -p" uses "export" commands or the "-g" option +for parameters that are not local to the current scope. Previously, +all output was in the form of "typeset" commands, never using "-g". + Changes from 5.1.1 to 5.2 ------------------------- |
