I should at least make a test release for 4.3.7 imminently and see how it's going. Although there are incomplete bits, I don't know of anything that's worse than last time and lots of things are better, so this would be a good time. pws ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

This is great. In a quick scan of README and NEWS I don't see mention of that new option added to turn of mulitiple function definitions with a single body. Nor do I see mention of the change to trap DEBUG to have it skip/return, nor mention of the addition of funcfiletrace, or the fc changes (allowing fc inside a non-interactive shell, behavior of print -s in subshells). Possibly these aren't "important" changes, but if you want to summarize, basically this version has support that make interactive debugging possibe. ;-) On Fri, Oct 10, 2008 at 4:48 AM, Peter Stephenson <pws@csr.com> wrote: > "Rocky Bernstein" wrote: >> I'm sort of ready to put out the first zsh debugger release.

You're right, these should at least be summarised.
