to the versions corresponding to the 2006-09 release. This should have
been done when the main hugs package was updated to this version back in
October of past year.
New version has NetBSD/powerpc support (although I haven't adjusted
the Makefile due to lack of test machines) and now builds the
sb-posix package properly.
Version 5.4 - January 29 2007, by Shigio YAMAGUCHI
[INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES]
* Further compression of tag file (format version 5).
Though new global can read older tag file since version-5.0, older
global cannot read new format. It might say like follows:
"GTAGS seems new format. Please install the latest GLOBAL."
[OTHER CHANGES]
* global: Improved performance when the -x option is not specified.
* globash.rc: Added new option -l for tag search command (x,r,s,g,P,I,f).
This option invokes less(1) directly without tag stack.
* Verbose messages are unified.
P option file not found
<n> files located
others object not found
path format: <n> files located
other format:<n> objects located
[BUG FIXED]
* Gtags(1) and global(1) didn't work well in the system root directory('/').
Version 5.3 - November 20 2006, by Shigio YAMAGUCHI
[INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES]
* global: Changed not to locate other symbols (-s) in GTAGSLIBPATH.
This is the original specification of GLOBAL.
* global: Stop sorting when the -I(--idutils) option specified.
The output of gid(idutils) is sorted by the suitable way. Though the order is
slightly differ from global(1), it need not be sorted again.
[OTHER CHANGES]
* global: Added new option -O(--only-other).
* htags: Added some new options and new arguments which are synonyms of config variable.
This decreases dependence on configration file.
new option | config variable
------------------------+-------------------------
--disable-grep | disable_grep
--table-list | table_list
--tabs=<n> | tabs
--full-path | full_path
new argument | config variable
------------------------+-------------------------
--line-number [columns] | ncol
--func-header [position]| definition_header
--xhtml [version] | xhtml_version
(*=default)
position: before, right, *after
version: *1.0, 1.1
* htags: Changed to use each 'CVS/Repository' file to generate URLs if it is available.
* htags: Added '.gitignore' to the default skip file list.
* gtags.el:
- Shorten path names in [GTAGS SELECT MODE]:
If project directory is specified using 'gtags-visit-rootdir', gtags.el print path
using the relative path name from the project directory, else print absolute path name.
- Support dynamic completing-read of tag name.
gtags-make-complete-list is deprecated. You can enjoy tag name completetion without
invoking this command.
[BUG FIXED]
* gtags: gtags had exited when it encountered dead symbolic link.
