@@ -4,6 +4,29 @@ CHANGES FROM PREVIOUS VERSIONS OF ZSH Note also the list of incompatibilities in the README file. +Changes from 5.3.1 to 5.4 +------------------------- + +The 'exec' and 'command' precommand modifiers, and options to them, are +now parsed after parameter expansion. Previously, both the modifier and +any options to it were parsed between alias expansion and parameter +expansion (see zshexpn(1)), so they could neither be quoted nor be the +result of parameter expansion. Examples: 's=command; $s -V ls' and +'\command -V ls' now work as expected. + +Functions executed by ZLE widgets no longer have their standard input +closed, but redirected from /dev/null instead. That still guards +against user defined widgets inadvertently reading from the tty device. + +There is an option WARN_NESTED_VAR, a companion to the existing +WARN_CREATE_GLOBAL that causes a warning if a function updates a +variable from an enclosing scope without using typeset -g. It can be +turned on for an individual function with "functions -W". + +zmodload now has an option -s to be silent on a failure to find a module +but still print other errors. + + Changes from 5.2 to 5.3.1 ------------------------- |
