- Fixed a bug with an unterminated buffer in uuid() (thanks to
Steven de Brouwer).
- Added Solaris 8 as another supported platform (thanks to Steven
de Brouwer).
- If a custom report has a specified limit to the number of tasks
it shows, then that limit may be overridden by specifying a new
quantity on the command line.
- Added unit tests to verify expected behavior.
- Updated documentation to reflect new functionality.
- Removed obsolete documentation references to an "oldest" and
"newest" configuration variable.
- Added a simple subscribe button and form to the web site. Several
people have stated that subscribing to the group is confusing, and
maybe this will help.
- Removed obsolete usage.html page.
- Added filterSequence helper function to subset tasks to the affected
sequence of tasks.
- Added series of helper functions to facilitate applying modifications
to tasks, allowing more commands the ability to modify tasks in all
ways.
- Added calls to helper functions for append and modify commands.
- Fixed bug that would mistakenly validate the configuration variable
"bcd" if there was a valid "abcd", "bcde" or "abcde" configuration
variable.
- Made the messages generated by task after a command is complete
more verbose and consistent across all commands.
- Fixed bug that caused the ghistory command to skip months where no
tasks were added, but were deleted or done. This is the same bug
that was fixed in 1.6.0 for the history report. So much for cut
and paste.
- Allowed all commands that take an ID to now operate on a sequence.
- Added David J Patrick as contributing author for the massive list
of feature ideas he has provided, and the accompanying dialogue.
- Added mention of the Github issue tracker.
- Added support for the "g" modifier to the substitution command,
that replace every occurrence of "from" with "to", in the task
description and any annotations.
- When a task description contained a colon, the two words preceding
the colon were concatenated. For example, "aa bb:cc dd" gets
concatenated to "aabb:cc dd".
- Added unit to test to prevent regression.
- Updated documentation.
- Cygwin doesn't support all color combinations, which include bold,
underline and bright background colors. Added a troubleshooting
item that describes this problem, and suggests running "task colors"
to determine just which colors are supported.
- Added a faq.html file, although it is not so much a set of frequently
asked questions, but of repeatedly asked questions. Questions from
the mail bag, if they apply to a general audience might be shown
here.
