Release v10.2.0

This release tweaks file copying (of untemplated files) to stop copying the metadata of the files. This means that the files will be copied with a fresh timestamp and default permissions, for example.

Release v10.1.0

This release improves error output when Nancy runs external programs. Standard error from the called program is reprinted, and a more legible error message is given.

Release v10.0.0

This release rejigs Nancy’s command set, in particular how it runs programs. It adds a separate $run command, rather than allowing $include and $paste to take external arguments. It also adds $expand to allow the output of $run to be expanded.

Release v9.0.0

This release changes the way that external programs are invoked to be more flexible. In particular, the invocation of external programs is now orthogonal to the expansion of $include fragments.

Release v8.3.0

This release loosens the requirement for input encoding (which was
undocumented) from UTF-8 to “any 8-bit superset of 7-bit ASCII encoded in 8
bits”. In other words, UTF-8, any ISO-8559-1 encoding, or indeed plain 8-bit
ASCII.

Release v8.2.2

This release fixes a bug where Nancy reported an error when a nested expansion tried to use the same executable via $include more than once at different levels. This check is intended to catch infinite expansion of the same non-executable file, and should not be used for executables.

Release v8.2.1

This release fixes the invocation of executables in the current directory when the INPUT path is also the current directory.

Release v8.2.0

This release adds the ability to template .in files.

Release v8.1.1

This release improves the documentation, especially for functionality added in v8.1.0.

Release v8.1.0

This release adds the ability to template file and directory names.
