RainbowDelimiters is a "rainbow parentheses"-like mode for emacs
which highlights parens, brackets, and braces according to their
depth. Each successive level is highlighted a different color. This
makes it easy to spot matching delimiters, orient yourself in the
code, and tell which statements are at the same depth.

[github 141] (Matthew Horsfall)
Bug Fixes

Test::Builder from getting out of sync. [github #89]
The goal of IPython is to create a comprehensive environment for interactive and
exploratory computing. To support this goal, IPython has two main components:
* An enhanced interactive Python shell.

[BUG FIXES]
- better error message provided when trying to load a trait class that does
not exist in @INC (Upasana, RT#94731)

more visible mechanism to provide important information to the user
(re RT#92780)
Changes from previous:
----------------------
0.31 Sat Apr 06 2013
Add missing IO::Handle fallback for ::Unbuffered (RT#82351)
Bogus fix for Windoze automatic line-ending failure of t/11 (RT#79950),
improvements welcomed.
0.30 Tue Sep 04 2012
Implement feature request #78270 to include support say
Preserve layers of passed hilehandle on instantiation.
Fixed tests under Win32 & cygwin, bug #75181.
Swap IO::Pager:new and ::open, alter subclass::open to
remove unnecessary level of subroutine calls
Return IO::Handle objects when not connected to a TTY for
transparent use of IO::Pager when programming OO.
NOTE: This is broken, see ::less in TODO
0.24 Sat Feb 18 2012
Fixed bug #74691, tests fail if CPANTS folk don't have a perl in PATH!
Add PID method & token overload to access pager process identifier.
Remove semi-circular reference in object to fix implicit close().
0.20 Sat Feb 11 2012
Fixed bug #74691, add File::Which as dependency / skip test if missing
Fixed non-TTY/redirection behavior and added corresponding test
Improve buffering sistuation in both ::Buffered and ::Unbuffered
Auto-gensym scalar filehandles like perl's open
Add OO interface
Add alternate pagers 'lv', 'pg',
and system default '/etc/alternatives/pager' (bug# 74519)
Add tests for initialization failure conditions (9-open.t)
0.16 Fri Feb 3 2012
Require 5.8.0 or better
Removed Perl warning 'Use of tie on a handle without * is deprecated'.
No interactive questions during 'make test' (bug# 66718)
Better handling of missing PAGER.
Look for more pagers: 'most' and 'w3m' (bug# 74519)
Documentation clean-up, light refactoring, more error checks.
Do not run IO::Pager::Page automatically when in Perl compile mode.
0.10 Unreleased
Added support for encodings via binmode() (bug# 67930).
Test: encoding, handle (glob, scalar, OO), interactive...
0.07 Unreleased
Rewrote to support scalar filehandles per user request and IO::Handle
style OO support came along for the ride.
Fixed several mis-coded segments that did not affect operation.
Added C<tell> in IO::Pager::Unbuffered to check size of buffered output.
Pager open error now sets $! instead of issuing a warning, to more
closely emulate the C<open> experience. Check return value as before.
Neglected to update $VERSION in last release.
Touched up the documentation.
Docopt helps you create most beautiful command-line interfaces easily.
The option parser is generated based on a docstring that is passed to docopt
function. docopt parses the usage pattern ("Usage: ...") and option
descriptions (lines starting with dash "-") and ensures that the program
invocation matches the usage pattern; it parses options, arguments and commands
based on that. The basic idea is that a good help message has all necessary
information in it to make a parser.
Changes between 6.0.0 and 6.0.0a:
Not documented.
Changes between GMP version 5.1.* and 6.0.0
BUGS FIXED
* The function mpz_invert now considers any number invertible in Z/1Z.
* The mpn multiply code now handles operands of more than 2^31 limbs
correctly. (Note however that the mpz code is limited to 2^32 bits on
32-bit hosts and 2^37 bits on 64-bit hosts.)
* Contains all fixes from release 5.1.3.
SPEEDUPS
* Plain division of large operands is faster and more monotonous in operand
size.
* Major speedup for ARM, in particular ARM Cortex-A15, thanks to improved
assembly.
* Major speedup for SPARC T4/T5 and speedup also for T3, thanks to a lot of
new assembly.
* Speedup for Intel Sandy Bridge, Ivy Bridge, Haswell, thanks to rewritten
and vastly expanded assembly support. Speedup also for the older Core 2
and Nehalem.
* Faster mixed arithmetic between mpq_class and double.
* With g++, optimise more operations when one argument is a simple constant.
FEATURES
* Support for new Intel and AMD CPUs.
* Support for ARM64 alias Aarch64 alias ARMv8.
* New public functions mpn_sec_mul and mpn_sec_sqr, implementing side-channel
silent multiplication and squaring.
* New public functions mpn_sec_div_qr and mpn_sec_div_r, implementing
side-channel silent division.
* New public functions mpn_cnd_add_n and mpn_cnd_sub_n. Side-channel silent
conditional addition and subtraction.
* New public function mpn_sec_powm, implementing side-channel silent modexp.
* New public function mpn_sec_invert, implementing side-channel silent
modular inversion.
* Better support for applications which use the mpz_t type, but nevertheless
need to call some of the lower-level mpn functions. See the documentation
for mpz_limbs_read and related functions.

Release 8.35 04-April-2014
--------------------------
There have been performance improvements for classes containing non-ASCII
characters and the "auto-possessification" feature has been extended. Other
minor improvements have been implemented and bugs fixed. There is a new callout
feature to enable applications to do detailed stack checks at compile time, to
avoid running out of stack for deeply nested parentheses. The JIT compiler has
been extended with experimental support for ARM-64, MIPS-64, and PPC-LE.
as indicated in pkg/48075, wherein pdksh doesn't support double-parens
if not containing an arithmetic expression of a particular form.
Older bash and ast-ksh apparently also had problems with this.
