This is mostly a bugfix release, although there are a few new features. You can get it from ftp.zsh.org or from the Sourceforge zsh project. I hope to be able to replace the 4.3 series with a stable 5.0 release series before too long. Thanks to the many people who helped. Here is the appropriate section from the NEWS file. Changes since 4.3.11 -------------------- The zsh/parameter module has a new readonly associative array $usergroups whose keys are the names of system groups of which the current user is a member and whose values are the corresponding group identifiers. The region_highlight array, which controls highlighting of the command line from zle widgets, is now updated dynamically as the command line is edited. In POSIX emulation ("emulate sh") the shell is more accurate about when it should or should not exit on errors. The ${NAME:OFFSET:LENGTH} syntax now supports negative LENGTH, which counts back from the end of the string. The (g:opts:) flag in parameter expansion processes escape sequences like the echo and print builtins. opts can be any combination of o, e and c. With e, acts like print rather than echo except for octal escapes which are controlled separately by the o option. With c, interpret control sequences like "^X" as bindkey does. Regardless of the opts, \c is not interpreted. -- Peter Stephenson Software Engineer Tel: +44 (0)1223 692070 Cambridge Silicon Radio Limited Churchill House, Cambridge Business Park, Cowley Road, Cambridge, CB4 0WZ, UK Member of the CSR plc group of companies.
