The only good reason for using a branch would be to do simultaneous } development. I don't think that's necessary so near to the 4.0.1 release. The reason to branch for a release is to separate bug fixes from feature additions. If there's a serious bug, you can release a 4.0.2 without including all the developments that have occurred in the meantime. However, I don't feel strongly that it's necessary. We can always branch after the fact as long as the release revisions have a tag. } Once this is dealt with, unless anyone still has remaining tweaks they } think are necessary, I shall make a final pre-release with a view to } releasing it as 4.0.1. I looked briefly at the getindex() double-quote thing I mentioned [try to eliminate the strchr()] and found that in fact the callers of getindex() generally are NOT equipped to say whether the call was in double-quotes. I'd have to add an argument to fetchvalue() as well [or a new PM_ flag] to propagate `qt' down from paramsubst(). A new PM_ flag might not be a bad idea ... any thoughts? -- Bart Schaefer Brass Lantern Enterprises http://www.well.com/user/barts http://www.brasslantern.com Zsh: http://www.zsh.org | PHPerl Project: http://phperl.sourceforge.net
