13.1.1: Version 2.8
13.1.2: Version 2.8.0 [2001 Jul 30]
New command syntax
-
Add `
unlink ' command as a unix-familiar way to delete files
(see Unlink).
-
Add `
set page size ' command to clip to a given page size
(see Set Page).
-
Add `
substr ' RPN operator to permit extraction of sub-strings
(see Tertiary Operators).
-
Add `
default ' possibility for the `set x name ' and the
`set y name ' commands.
-
Add Perl-like ability to put underscores in numerical constants, to
guide your eye. These underscores are ignored by Gri, so that for
example `
.v. = 1_000 ' and `.v. = 1000 ' are equivalent as far
as Gri is concerned.
Emacs mode (see Emacs Mode)
-
Give `M-Tab' the
ability to complete builtin variables and synonyms as well as
commands
-
Add ``idle-timer minibuffer help'' to display defaults for builtin
variables under the cursor.
-
Add fontification of builtin variables only
if they are spelled correctly.
Developer changes
-
Add `
make source-arch-indep ' target in sources. This will build a
source tar file in which all the architecture-independent material
(documentation in HTML, postscript and Info formats) is pre-made. This
makes it easier to install gri on a host that doesn't have TeX and
ImageMagick installed.
-
Complete the port to IBM's compiler for their AIX operating system.
