It is with a very heavy heart that I must do this release. User reports have come in by the hundreds and they are almost unanimous (sorry, Colin): they don't like the 2.4.0.0 change, pretending it hurts readability (as if), and writability too, of execline scripts. (What? People were actually writing execline scripts? Why haven't I heard of them before yesterday?) They want a revert to the old syntax. Users. They never know what they want. They can't be happy. Give them what they ask for and they immediately start complaining about the opposite of what they were complaining before. They're a plague on software authors everywhere. I swear, computer programming would be so much easier if there were no users at all! But since programming is about being a slave to your users, I hear them, and I submit. I'm reverting the change introduced in 2.4.0.0. execline commands will keep the names they had in 2.3.0.4 and previous versions. I'm such a misunderstood genius. The main difference between 2.3.0.4 and 2.5.0.0, though, is that the "import" command has been removed. From 2.5.0.0 on, execline and ImageMagick should not conflict anymore. Make sure your execline scripts have been converted to using "importas"! https://skarnet.org/software/execline/ git://git.skarnet.org/execline Enjoy, Bug-reports welcome. -- Laurent
