	- Added patch to check PAR_TEMP environment var. Submitted
	by Johannes grosse.
	- Added patch to include /etc/zoidrc.d/ in zoidrc (debian bug #352217)

0.95 Thu Apr 28 2005
	Bugfix release
	- Fixed a critical bug in the auto-multiline behaviour, again 
	reported by Ryan Voots.
	- Added support for jobspecs without 'fg' in front of them on the
	commandline.  Requested by Allan Fields
	- Added word splitting for parameter expansion (not *yet* IFS)
	- Fixed a bug in the parsing for redirections. Reported by Wes Hardaker
	- Added working 'reload' builtin to Z:F::Commands

0.94 Mon Mar 21 2005
	Bugfix release
	- Fixed a critical bugfix making the shell practically unusable
	once the PWD contained a single quote :(  Reported by Ryan Voots.

     Mon Mar 14
	- Added alias for gnu grep to the default zoidrc
	- Added functionality to the jobs builtin command
	- Reniced the generation of zoidbuiltins(1)

0.93 Fri Jan 21 2005
	Bugfix release
	- Made brace expansion more bash compatible, set 'voidbraces'
	for the old behaviour
	- Renamed the 'allow_null_glob_expansion' to 'nullglob'
	- Added the 'nocaseglob' setting
	- Fixed a serious bug in the logic operator evaluation

     Thu Jan 13
	- Added examples/Menu.pl
	- Made background and delayed jobs remember their PWD and make sure
	they are their when executing
	- Added a 'die_silently' option for the shell() and builtin() routines

     Wed Jan 12
	- Refs to hashes tie'ed with DispatchTable are now also bless'ed to
	allow for an object interface. Added an 'add' and a 'pop' method as
	aliases for STORE and DELETE.
	- Added examples/word_expansion.pl and updated some related docs

     Mon Jan 10
	- Fixed a bug for using builtins in a command expansion
	- Fixed word splitting for command expansion
	- Fixed quote removal for multiline "words"

     Wed Jan  5 2005
	- Fixed two bugs in the 'fc' builtin and added doc for it

0.92 Tue Dec  7 2004
	Releasing quickly due to the bug in the 'export' builtin, also packaging working
	'--help' and '--usage' switched for builtins and working history commands.
	- Fixed 't/31_ZoidbergError.t', it seems overload.pm prevented 'is_deeply()'
	from working correctly
	- Delayed history logging till after executng the command, so the command is able
	to modify what is logged; this was needed for 'fc' to work
	- The 'history' and 'fc' commands seem to work correctly now; also the 'cd'
	history functions now use 'history'.

     Fri Dec  3
	- Restructured the way the 'history' builtin works
	- Added 'GetHistory' and 'SetHistory' builtins for Z:Fish::ReadLine
	- Made the directory history of the 'cd' builtin work with Log

     Wed Dec  1
	- Changed history tag from "hist" to "cmd"
	- Changed '.history.yaml' into '.zoid.log.yaml' and added pid to the data set

     Sat Nov 27
	- Fixed a bug in the export builtin with exporting variables that already
	existed in the environment
	- Enabled --version --usage and --help for all builtins using Z:Utils::GetOpt

0.91 Mon Nov 22
	Maintenance release, mostly bugfixes and some cleanups
	- Checked all logic concerning the exit status of system commands
	the $$shell{error} hash now contains the exit_status, the signal
	and the "core dumped" bit
	- Made default perl options a setting
	- Moved perl settings in "perl" sub-hash
	- Made the export builtin really move variables between the perl namespace
	and the environment; also the source-filter logic changed a bit for this
	- Made alias expansion check for no_mode '!'

     Mon Nov 15
	- Fixed bug with completing redirection arguments
	- Added some prompt escapes to Z:Fish::ReadLine
	- Added completion for autoloaded contexts

     Sun Oct 24
	- Removed lib/Zoidberg/Eval.pm in favour of including it in
	Zoidberg.pm _but_ allowing to change the perl eval namespace
	- Made no_esc_rm a global parser setting for StringParser
	- Changed shell quoting behaviour slightly to make it more perlish
	- Made zoid remember the perl namespace after a "package" statement

     Sat Oct 23
	- Fixed a bug with auto-multiline commands not being logged
	correctly
	- Added examples/cpan.pl
	- Tuned internal APIs to make examples/cpan.pl possible,
	removed the '--rcfile' and '--norc' switches from fluff
	in the process, just use '-o rcfiles=..' or '-o norc'

     Fri Oct  1 
        - Fixed a bug with the >> and << redirections
	- Fixed a bug with the quoting of "'" (etc.) for completion
	- Added $( .. )[.] command substitution syntax

0.90 Mon Sep  6 2004
        This release is going to amsterdam.pm for demonstration.
	It is supposed to be the first release candidate for a
	stable 1.00 version (but not all builtins are done yet).
        - Refactored the settings to control parser behaviour;
        all kinds of blocks can be wrapped in array refs again

     Sun Sep  5
        - Modified the format of redirections in the parse tree
	- {error} now also contains the signal that caused it
        - made routines in Z:Shell not modify $$shell{error}

     Sat Sep  4
        - Fixed bug with multiline entries in the history file
	- PWD is now also logged for interactive use

     Fri Sep  3
        - Blocks now also can be anonymous subroutines
	- Added --plug option to fluff
	- Mode can be a class now

     Wed Sep  1
        - Tweaked the parsing of redirections
	- Made output() handle capturing more consequently
	- Added command substitution for `..` $(..) and @(..)

     Wed Aug 11
        - Added the parser stack for word_expansion again
	- Renamed {contexts} to {parser} because it contains more then just
	contexts
	- Renamed {parent} to {shell} because I think its clearer

     Tue Aug 10
        - Added the 'symbols' builtin to Commands - copied idea from Psh
	- Removed some deprecated devel builtins from Commands
	- Removed Help plugin, and merged the 'help' builtin in Commands
	- Added the 'which' builtin - copied idea from Psh

     Sun Aug  8
        - Added autoloading of contexts (and thus modes)
	- Several small fixes and clean ups
	- Added shell_job() to skip parsing for a simple command

     Sat Aug  7
        - Added 'completion_function' hook for contexts to define
	- Removed currying feature from DispatchTable
	- Made fluff use our own GetOpt
	- Added the CPAN plugin

     Tue Aug 03
        - Updated the Fish api

     Mon Aug 02
        - Made some obscure changes in the StringParser internals, it doesn't use
	a tied grammar anymore, hope it performs better now
	- Added 'builtin' and 'command' builtins to Z:Shell and made some changes
	in the parse_block() logic to optimise these uses

     Sat Aug 31
        - Removed 'call' events in favour of using builtin commands for this
	- Made the 'output' routine capture output of builtin commands
	- Added parser flow chart to zoiddevel man page

     Fri Jul 30
	- Stripped down lot of the StringParser interface
        - Added glob arguments and a 'path2hashref' routine to GetOpt
	- Simplified the Utils autoloading mechanism

     Wed Jul 28
        - Finished Zoidberg::Utils::GetOpt base functionality

     Tue Jul 27
        - Added sub shells, it uses the 'SUBZ' context
	- Removed 'SH' context in favour of 'CMD' context with the 'fork_job' bit set
	- Removed PATH caching, it isn't needed anmore since execvp knows the path
	this means no cache dir is used anymore
	- Added logic for redirection operators '>|', '>&', and  '<&'

     Sun Jul 25
        - Added GetOpt to the Utils collection
	- Removed data/settings.pl and data/grammar.pl and inlined their
	contents in Zoidberg.pm
	- Removed 'load_on_init' config for plugins, just use the 'loadrc' event
	- gave 'plug' a '--list' option

     Mon Jul 19
        - Made Intel use Autoload
	- Added completion for the 'make' and 'man' commands

     Sun Jul 20
        - Added Zoidberg::SettingsHash to Zoidberg.pm to tie the setting hash
	modifying a setting now generates an event
	- Added events for mode changes and plugin loading/deleting

     Mon Jul 12
        - Made PluginHash understand bare '.pm' files as plugins without hooks
	- Made PluginHash understad 'settings', 'aliases' and 'context' in a PluginConf
	- Added 'plug' and 'unplug' builtins to control plugin loading
	- Fixed zoidcmd string so aliases work for non-word syntax
	- Added the 'mode' feature to switch default contexts

     Sun Jul 11
        - Changed util funtion  "abs_path()" into "path()"
	- Rewrote directory history feature in the 'cd' builtin

     Thu Jul  8

        - Added a tied @JOBS for a perlish job-/list-control interface

     Fri Jul  2
        - Revised the parsing of escapes a bit
	- Added regex globs

     Thu Jul  1
        - Removed positional parameters from alias expansion,
	reserving @_ for future use
	- Made Zoidberg switch to multiline editing mode automaticly

0.54 Tue Jun 29 2004
	Enough new stuff for a release and some cute bug fixes.
	Hope it will do better then the last two.
	- Fixed some bugs with regard to tab-expansion and quoting

     Mon Jun 28
	- (re-)created Help.pm
        - deprecated usage of '.pd' files

        - Added documentation for Commands.pm
	- fixed a quoting problem with "export var='value'" syntax by making
	it a special syntax

     Tue Jun 22
        - Added heuristic enqueuing of commands when you start the command with
	an operator instead of a command

     Thu Jun 17
        - Moved commands related to job control from Contractor to Commands
	- Z:Fish::Commands now uses AutoLoader

     Wed Jun 16
	- Made aliases work more like macros, they can now contain logic and
	positional parameters
		     

0.53 Thu May 27 2004
     Oops, another "nuked" release :( Got a typo in the test script.

0.52 Tue May 25 2004

     Mon May 24
        - Added another interface between Intel and ReadLine

     Fri May 21
        - Fixed bug in Intel code for shell object
	- Added "beat" broadcast event for async events

     Wed May 19
        - Made elaborate changes in the execution order of lists of commands.
	Job control now effectively suspends the whole list rather then one 
	process and step over it

0.1  Fr Dec 20 2002
	We decided to make an unstable release since there are lot of fixes since the
	0.04 release, but there is still a lot to do before releasing a stable version.
	The version numbering scheme changed today:
	- odd numbered minor numbers will only be used for (unstable) devel versions
	- versions will have only one major and one minor number for real changes
	- a second minor number points to (small) bug fixes (like typo's)
	So today we release the 0.1-devel-unstable version, the first stable release
	will be 0.2, we are looking forward to that release :)
