Sa Apr 19 2003 - Added Zoiderg::Config Su Apr 06 2003 - Removed the MOTZ plugin, this was just legacy. - Tuned the interface of the FileRoutines module, seems a bit faster now. Mo Mar 31 2003 - Both events and commands are now defined in a plugins config file, thus allowing zoidberg to 'wake up' plugins when needed. - Commands defined by a plugin are integrated with both the perl syntax as with the command syntax variants. We Mar 19 2003 - All plugins now have their own config files. This makes moving plugins around a bit easier. Tu Mar 18 2003 - Config is not dumped on exit any longer, change of mind. - The FileRoutines cache now dumps using Storable, this speeds up the initialisation. 0.2b Su Feb 16 2003 - Module namespace cleaned up for CPAN 0.2 We Feb 12 2003 - Plugins get loaded on use, not on init, thus reducing the footprint of shells running in the background. - Exec comand fixed, this solves a lot of bugs. - Lots of other small fixes.

Fr Jan 10 2003 Lets try another approach to Makefile.PL, all make targets now link to files in the 'm/targets' directory. - We no longer use ExtUtils::MakeMaker - Install everything with "make all" Try "perl Makefile.PL && make help" for more info. We Jan 8 2003 Making a fresh cvs directory -- this will make the directory structure clean and fit for packaging. As a result there will no longer be a separate ProgramFiles package.

Prompt respawns to fast at the moment. 0.1 Fr Dec 20 2002 We decided to make an unstable release since there are lot of fixes since the 0.04 release, but there is still a lot to do before releasing a stable version. The version numbering scheme changed today: - odd numbered minor numbers will only be used for (unstable) devel versions - versions will have only one major and one minor number for real changes - a second minor number points to (small) bug fixes (like typo's) So today we release the 0.1-devel-unstable version, the first stable release will be 0.2, we are looking forward to that release :) Th Dec 19 2002 denthijs wrote: > zoid running natively on macosx without problems > config: perl 5.6.0 , osx 10.2 > i needed a lot of perlmods (ofcourse) but everything went like a charm - "zoid in zoid"-bug fixed -- zoid now takes back terminal control after leaving a second zoid, or for instance after leaveing a sshclient.
