===== Changes in v1.5.0
C.R. #214 Write ﾒfindﾓ and ﾒduﾓ commands
Multitasking versions of the "find" and "du" commands are now available. See the man pages for the commands for more information.
C.R. #213 Write a buffered output library to speed commands
A new library ( buf_lib.c ) was written to provide buffered output from commands. This library significantly speeds text intensive commands.
C.R. #212 Write a general purpose ﾒwalk structureﾓ library
A new library (walk_lib.c) supports multitasking decent of directory trees. This is a general purpose library and may be used outside the nShell(tm) environment.
C.R. #211 Replace the ﾒarg_to_intﾓ routine with a more general ﾒarg_to_numﾓ
The arg_to_int routine has been removed, and a more general arg_to_num has been added to arg_util.c. This may force a change in user commands using arg_util.c.
C.R. #210 Cache frequently used commands
The nShell now caches the most recently used commands. This should speed the execution of command loops.
C.R. #209 Write ﾒheadﾓ and ﾒtailﾓ commands
New "head" and "tail" commands are now available. Please see the man pages for these commands for more information.
C.R. #204 Add ﾒinsert pathﾓ to edit menu
A new menu option allows the user to use the standard file dialog to pick up a pathname and insert it in the command line.
C.R. #203 Add command name to error message in ﾒpsﾓ
An error message was missing.
C.R. #202 Speed up ﾒwcﾓ and ﾒcatﾓ
Inner loops within these commands speed operation.
C.R. #63 Add ﾒmatchﾓ or ﾒgrepﾓ as external command
Two versions of string matching commands are now available. "match" locates files using shell-style wildcards, while "grep" uses egrep-style regular expressions.
