Changes since 4.7:
August 26 2004, Shigio Yamaguchi <shigio@gnu.org>
* Moved function now() from gtags.c to libutil/date.c.
* htags: Changed so that the path passed to CGI might be encoded to %xx.
* htags: Rewritten in C language.
* htags: The use of the 'gtags --write' was stopped.
* die.c: New function sethandler() and warning() added.
* gctags/reserved.pl: The use of the --key-positions option of gperf(1)
was stopped. We need gperf-3.0.1 instead.
June 1 2004, Shigio Yamaguchi <shigio@gnu.org>
* htags: Function usable() was changed to the same specification
as usable() in libutil/usable().
* htags: Execution path of global(1) was changed to the absolute path.
* htags: Write FILEMAP file for reference from external system.
* conf.c: New config variable 'bindir' and 'datadir' added.
* w32/ directory removed.
* Gtags.vim, plugin script integrates GLOBAL with vim editor added.
GLOBAL-4.6.
[INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES]
* The default value of the config variable 'definition_header' was changed
to 'no', because the definition header is unsightly according to the place,
especially in class definition.
[OTHER CHANGES]
* Added support for PHP language.
(Known problems in htags)
- The variable in string cannot be recognized.(global can recognize that.)
- In HTML, the character string of the same spelling as the reserved
word of PHP is recognized as a reserved word of PHP.
I will rewrite htags in C language in the future to solve above problems.
* Added support for SCM_DEFINE macro which is part of guile-snarf.
* Added 'right' as a value of config variable 'definition_header'.
* Added some tool tips.
- Alphabet in alphabetical index shows the count of definitions.
- File name in file index show the full path name.
- Anchor to duplicate index show the number of duplicated objects.
* Added .cvsrc,.cvsignore,.cvspass,.cvswrappers,autom4te.cache/
to the default skip list.
GLOBAL 4.5.3.
[INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES]
* htags: Htags does not generate the code of javascript at all.
In the former version, we used javascript to display information about
links. But a browser these days had come to support the tool tip using
'title' attribute. So, we replaced the function using tool tip instead
of javascript facility.
* The --no-javascript option was removed because it was already unnecessary.
* global: The pattern of the argument came always to be interpreted
as a extended regular expression. In the former version, there was both
the case for the pattern to be interpreted as a basic regular expression
and the interpretation as the extended regular expression. This depended
on the environment of the build. (If you have grep(1) and xargs(1),
basic regular expression will be used.)
In the new version, if you want the pattern to be interpreted as a basic
regular expression, please specify the -G option.
[OTHER CHANGES]
New features:
htags:
* CVS REPOSITORY link (the --cvsweb and --cvsweb-cvsroot option).
You can link CVS repository from the hypertext of source code.
* Tooltip inserted in links.
* The --no-map-file option added.
Htags generate 'MAP' file by default. You can suppress it by this.
* The --statistics option added.
With this option, htags print statistics information to the standard error.
global:
* The -e(--regexp) option added like grep(1).
* The -G(--basic-regexp) option added like egrep(1).
Performance tuning:
htags:
* Remove tag name and line image from cache record. This made cache
file smaller.
* The use of the temporary file was suppressed to the minimum by tring to
read the source code.
Other modifications
* A security hole was shut.
* conf.h: add '{arch}' and '.notfunction' to default skip list.
* gctags: support __attribute__((...)).
GLOBAL 4.5.2.
[INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES]
* htags: move title's '<H1>...</H1>' into configuration variables
'title_begin' and 'title_end'. This makes configuration more flexible.
If you are still using older version of gtags.conf, please replace it
with one in this version.
[OTHER CHANGES]
* htags: add INCLUDED FROM index of htags by Hideki IWAMOTO.
This indexes the places where the header file is included.

* htags: insert HTML tag in the line which was warned.
(see configuration variable 'colorize_warned_line', 'warned_line_begin'
and 'warned_line_end'.)
* gctags: pick up reference to macro in conditional directive.
* gctags: remove wchar_t from the reservation word list of C.
* gctags: remove overload from the reserved word list of C++.
