RECENT CHANGES

version 2.038 October 2007

The manual pages have been revised to reflect minor changes  and  remove
some out-of-date material.

The commands /nostrictif, /strictif to control enforcement  of  `if'  in
guard  syntax  have  been  removed.  The `if' has been part of Miranda's
syntax since 1988 so it seems pointless to retain this switch.  In  case
there are surviving if-less scripts, you can use
	mira -nostrictif
or set the environment variable NOSTRICTIF to any non-empty string.

New command /recheck makes mira check if  any  loaded  script  has  been
updated before every evaluation, instead of only after /edit (/norecheck
to disable).  Appropriate if an editor window  is  running  concurrently
with  the  Miranda  session  window.   The  setting  is  remembered  for
subsequent sessions.  Formerly enabled by setting  environment  variable
RECHECKMIRA to a non-empty string - that method still works also.

A new flag
	mira -log
assists debugging of miranda scripts running  as  stand-alone  programs.
See   manual   section   on  using  Miranda  to  build  commands,  under
UNIX/Miranda system interface (subsection 31/4).

mira now checks that it has miralib of same version number - exits  with
error  message  otherwise.   An explicit mira -lib <path> overrides this
but it is in general inadvisable to run mira with wrong miralib.

A number of minor bugs have been fixed,  including  one  that  prevented
Miranda from being used to write CGI scripts.
