newt v0.0.3.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2011-05-12 // almost 13 years ago
    • Made the command line interface more intuitive, per the following algorithm:
      • If --source is not specified, the first undefined non-key=value argument is used as the source.
      • if --dest is also not specified, the second undefined non-key=value argument is used as the dest.
      • If --source is specified but dest is not, the first undefined non-key=value argument is used as the dest.
      • If neither --source or --dest are specified, and there is only one undefined non-key=value argument, then that is used as the source, and the dest is stdout.
      • If the above is true, and there are no undefined non-key=value arguments, then source is stdin and dest is stdout.
    • BugFix: Newt no longer tries to process the content of binary files when creating a template from a directory. (Binary files are copied over, and the filenames are updated per the templating algorithm.)
    • BugFix: Thanks to J3H, the template tags are no longer detected via regex.
      • this should improve performance (not that that was a problem)
      • it makes the code a bit cleaner
      • removes dependencies on regex-base and regex-pcre (but unixutils depends on them anyway, via regex-tdfa)
      • and, above all, should make it much easier to specify custom --prefix= and --suffix= values on the command line (but that's untested).
    • Added a healthy, but not overwhelming, number of tests.
