Release Notes for GNU indent version 1.7.
* All reported bugs have been fixed, except some of those dealing with
comments. I have completely rewritten the comment handling code in
indent, but since this produces rather different comment formats
(mostly, it makes several comment-related options actually work) I
am waiting for the next release of indent to install this.
To see what the differences in the comment handling will be, compare
the file `comments.texinfo' to the section on comments in the info
node for indent.
It is possible that I have lost some bug reports, as some of my mail
falls into a crack between two machines. In the future, please be
sure to use the address "bug-gnu-utils@prep.ai.mit.edu".
* All errors and warnings are output on the standard error stream,
and conform to the GNU error message format.
* There is now more support for small (i.e., 16-bit) machines.
* There have been slight changes to the default behaviour, namely:
- Column 1 comments are not formatted.
- Preprocessor spaces are removed.
* When "-lps" is specified, whitespace preceding the '#' character is
left untouched, as well as following whitespace.
* When the tabsize is specified as 1 or 0 (e.g., "-ts 0"), spaces are
used instead of tabs. There may be bugs in this behaviour, but they
should vanish with the new comment code.
