Announcement text:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This release of zhnumber v3.1 adds counting-rod numeral support, new date
formatting options, several bug fixes, and compatibility updates.
NEW FEATURES
- Added counting-rod numerals `\zhrod` and `\zhrodbox`, along with the
configuration command `\zhrodsetup` (#366).
- Added support for outputting year-only or year-and-month dates.
BUG FIXES
- Fixed a typo where `\zhdigwithoptions` passed its options as an extra
argument to `\zhnum_digits_counter:n`. Previously, `\zhdig` with options would
error with "Use of \??? doesn't match its definition" and produce garbled
output (#1008).
- Fixed a typo where the `Tn` key was bound to the
Heavenly-Stems-and-Earthly-Branches (干支) variable instead of the Heavenly Stems
(天干) variable. Setting `Tn` previously affected the output of `\zhganzhi`
rather than `\zhtiangan` (#1077).
IMPROVEMENTS
- Documented the behavior of option-bearing forms when written to auxiliary
files: the counter value is frozen at write time, while the style is applied
when the auxiliary file is read back (#1008).
- `\zhnum` and `\zhdig` with options now expand the counter to its numeric
value before passing it to the underlying implementation, so that the counter
value is frozen when written to `.toc` and similar auxiliary files (#1008).
- Replaced the deprecated `\keys_set_filter:nnnN` with
`\keys_set_exclude_groups:nnnN` to avoid errors under debug mode starting from
l3kernel 2026-09-09 (#1095).
- Raised the minimum required LaTeX3 version to 2025/10/09.
