2001-07-10  Sven Wischnowsky  <wischnow@zsh.org>

	* 15357: Completion/Base/Completer/_prefix, Src/Zle/compcore.c,
	Src/Zle/zle_tricky.c: prefix completion: make e-o-c-p leave a
	space before the cursor, make _prefix leave the cursor after
	the inserted match even if only a single match; and make the
	C-code not show explanation strings if the completion function
	it doesn't want a list

2001-07-10  Bart Schaefer  <schaefer@zsh.org>

	* 15354: Doc/Zsh/arith.yo, Doc/Zsh/builtins.yo, Doc/Zsh/compat.yo,
	Doc/Zsh/files.yo, Doc/Zsh/func.yo, Doc/Zsh/grammar.yo,
	Doc/Zsh/intro.yo, Doc/Zsh/invoke.yo, Doc/Zsh/jobs.yo,
	Doc/Zsh/manual.yo, Doc/Zsh/params.yo, Doc/Zsh/prompt.yo,
	Doc/Zsh/redirect.yo:  Add or clean up a lot of index entries.
	Reorder the documentation for prompt escapes for readability and
	ease of lookup (I hope).

2001-07-10  Sven Wischnowsky  <wischnow@zsh.org>

	* 15352: Completion/Unix/Command/_man: remove not only numeric
	suffixes, but also `.n' and the like

2001-07-09  Peter Stephenson  <pws@csr.com>

	* 15334: Src/builtin.c, Test/A01grammar.ztst, Test/A02alias.ztst,
	Test/A04redirect.ztst, Test/C01arith.ztst, Test/D01prompt.ztst,
	Test/D04parameter.ztst, Test/D06subscript.ztst,
	Test/E01options.ztst, Test/E02xtrace.ztst, Test/V01zmodload.ztst:
	Another companion piece to 15327 to use `(eval)' as the script
	name in an eval.  This neatens the test code considerably.

	* unposted: Config/version.mk: 4.1.0-dev-1.

	* 15329: Test/A01grammar.ztst, Test/A02alias.ztst,
	Test/A04redirect.ztst, Test/A05execution.ztst, Test/C01arith.ztst,
	Test/D04parameter.ztst, Test/D06subscript.ztst,
	Test/E01options.ztst, Test/E02xtrace.ztst, Test/V01zmodload.ztst:
	changes in test scripts required by 15327; mostly benign but
	the behaviour of LINENO in trap '...' DEBUG is probably wrong.

	* 15327: Src/builtin.c, Src/exec.c, Src/glob.c, Src/parse.c,
	Src/Modules/parameter.c, Src/Modules/zpty.c, Src/Modules/zutil.c:
	Always use local LINENOs in parse_string().  Currently we only
	do this sometimes in order for existing $LINENO to show through.
	This seems to cause more problems than it solves.

2001-07-09  Bart Schaefer  <schaefer@zsh.org>

	* 15321: Src/exec.c: Fix line numbers in an error message; unwind
	function context properly on obscure autoloading failures.

2001-07-07  Bart Schaefer  <schaefer@zsh.org>

	* 15308: Src/builtin.c: Fix infinite loop on `r OLD=NEW' when OLD
	is the empty string, by rejecting replacements with an empty OLD.

	* 15305: Src/Zle/zle_main.c: Suppress XTRACE during execution of
	user-defined ZLE widgets unless the widget function has been
	tagged for tracing with `typeset -ft'.

	* 15304: Src/math.c: Unset parameters should not always become
	typed as float upon assignment (fix for 15292).

2001-07-06  Peter Stephenson  <pws@csr.com>

	* 15291, 15292: Src/math.c, Src/zsh.h, Test/C01arith.yo:
	fix bug that assignment to scalar in math mode failed if
	scalar had non-math value in it.

2001-07-06  Clint Adams  <clint@zsh.org>

	* 15250: zsh/pcre module will load gracefully even
	when pcre functions are unavailable.

2001-07-06  Peter Stephenson  <pws@csr.com>

	* 15288: Doc/Zsh/contrib.yo,
	Functions/Zle/bash-forward-word, Functions/Zle/bash-bacward-word,
	Functions/Zle/bash-kill-word, Functions/Zle/bash-backward-kill-word:
	complete set of bash-compatible word functions with documentation.

	* 15279: Doc/Zsh/expn.yo: describe those ${(S)...%%...} things
	so that even I understand what the code does.

2001-07-06  Oliver Kiddle  <opk@zsh.org>

	* 15252 (and Akinori Musha: 15245): Completion/BSD/Command/_kld,
	Completion/Unix/Command/_sysctl: Add exclusion lists and use
	_multi_parts for BSD completion of sysctl.

2001-07-06  Sven Wischnowsky  <wischnow@zsh.org>

	* 15283: Completion/Unix/Type/_path_files: when looking for
	parameter expansions, ignore `$'s with a backslash before them

2001-07-06  Peter Stephenson  <pws@csr.com>

	* 15277: Src/glob.c: *real* bug with ${(S)...%%...}: the indices
	for start and end of backreferences were incorrect.

	* Back out 15266: it was right before, I was looking at it
	back to front.

2001-07-06  Bart Schaefer  <schaefer@zsh.org>

	* 15271: Src/Modules/pcre.mdd: Default to dynamic linkage only, as
	the pcre library is unlikely to be available.

2001-07-06  Peter Stephenson  <pws@pwstephenson.fsnet.co.uk>

	* 15266: Src/glob.c, Doc/Zsh/expn.yo: ${(S)...%%...} matches
	were wrong; try desperately to explain that in ${(SI:...:)...%%...}
	and ${(SI:...:)...%...} indices count matches finishing
	progressively earlier in the string.

	* 15265: Src/parse.c: correction problems with new `for' syntax.
	
2001-07-05  Peter Stephenson  <pws@csr.com>

	* 15264: Doc/Zsh/grammar.yo: improve description of use of
	variant complex command forms to avoid confusing the present
	writer.

	* 15261: Test/E01options.ztst, Test/ztst.zsh: remaining easy
	option tests.

2001-07-05  Andrej Borsenkow  <bor@zsh.org>

	* 15253 : Src/hashtable.c: make hashdir() hash foo in addition
	to foo.exe on Cygwin again (lost when Cygwin gcc stopped setting
	_WIN32 by default).

2001-07-03  Clint Adams  <clint@zsh.org>

	* 15242: Doc/Zsh/mod_pcre.yo, Src/Modules/pcre.c: set $match
	instead of pparams.  pcre_match -a sets specified array instead of
	$match.

	* 15234: Doc/Zsh/mod_pcre.yo: describe behavior introduced by
	15228.

	* 15228: zshconfig.ac, Src/Modules/pcre.c: switch AC_CHECK_LIB to
	AC_SEARCH_LIBS for pcre.  Have pcre_match set positional
	parameters with the contents of capture buffers.

	* unposted: Doc/Makefile.in: add mod_pcre.yo to makefile.

2001-07-03  Oliver Kiddle  <opk@zsh.org>

	* 15191: Src/init.c: Don't infinite loop if there's an error in
	the user's precmd -- reset errflag after preprompt().

2001-06-29  Andrej Borsenkow  <bor@zsh.org>

	* 15183: zshconfig.ac: fix DLLD in non-ELF case

	* 15181: zshconfig.ac: use -KPIC instead of -Kpic at request
	of Tomi Vainio <Tomi.Vainio@Sun.COM>

	* Bart: 15083 plus comments: Functions/Zle/bash-backward-kill-word:

	entry that is present.

2001-06-28  Peter Stephenson  <pws@csr.com>

	* 15169: README, Doc/zman.yo, Doc/ztexi.yo, Doc/Zsh/manual.yo:
	handle top node in a way texinfo 4.0 likes better.  May require
	upgrading texinfo.

	* 15160 and Andrej zsh-users/3973: Doc/Makefile.in: install
	zsh.html if generated.

2001-06-28  Oliver Kiddle  <opk@zsh.org>

	different IPREFIX/PREFIX combinations and such by avoiding to
	generate cline structs for empty parts after a match spec
	anchor cline struct

	up or down)

2001-06-13  Peter Stephenson  <pws@csr.com>

	* 14893: Src/signals.c: make handler mod_export because it's
	needed for signal queueing in various modules.  Probably

	Completion/Unix/Command/_mount, Completion/Unix/Type/_dir_list,
	Src/Zle/computil.c: fix for comparguments (completing after
	single letter options that get their argument in the next
	word); make _values ignore some of the standard option it may
	get; make _mount use _dir_list in some places and improve that;
	`document' comparguments and compvalues with some comments in
	computil.c

2001-06-13  Oliver Kiddle  <opk@zsh.org>

	* 14896: Completion/Zsh/Type/_command_names: don't complete read-only
	parameters on the left side of an assignment

2001-06-13  Peter Stephenson  <pws@csr.com>

2001-06-07  Bart Schaefer  <schaefer@zsh.org>

	* 14792: Test/comptest: Don't import the current terminal type for

	several #include directives to get the sockaddr_in definition in

	* 14772: David Lebel <lebel@lebel.org>: zshconfig.ac: patch
	for dynamic linking on OpenBSD

	* unposted: Etc/zsh-development-guide: we now support autoconf-2.50

	* 14766: Src/prompt.c: uniform %l substitution

	* 14760: zshconfig.ac: use old-style AC_INIT without version

	* 14758: zshconfig.ac: no more ac_cv_cygwin in autoconf-2.50;
	use host_os instead

	* unposted; based on 14679 (me) and 14693 (Bart): configure.ac,
	zshconfig.ac, .distfiles, Makefile.in, configure.in, Src/mkmakemod.sh:
	Allow processing by both autoconf-2.13 and autoconf-2.50; remove
	config.status hack for autoconf-2.50

2001-06-06  Sven Wischnowsky  <wischnow@zsh.org>

	* 14736: Doc/Zsh/compsys.yo: make docs for _wanted and
	_requested clearer (command has to allow options passed to it)

	* 14733: Completion/Base/Utility/_arguments: two fixes: try all
	actions that have to be tried (but only once), execute actions
	if we aren't after an option already (in the same word)
