zile-2.4.15 released [stable]
<#secure method=pgpmime mode=sign> I’m delighted to announce a new release of GNU Zile. This release fixes some minor bugs for users, but mostly features code cleanup and build fixes and updates. The release is most of interest to those who want to build Zile for themselves (for example, it fixes a bug that prevented building on some systems with multiple versions of Curses installed), and for packagers. Here are the compressed sources and a GPG detached signature[*]: https://ftpmirror.gnu.org/zile/zile-2.4.15.tar.gz https://ftpmirror.gnu.org/zile/zile-2.4.15.tar.gz.sig Use a mirror for higher download bandwidth: https://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html [*] Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the .sig suffix) is intact. First, be sure to download both the .sig file and the corresponding tarball.

This release was bootstrapped with the following tools: Autoconf 2.69 Automake 1.16.1 Gnulib v0.1-3937-gd9e1d5c10 NEWS * Noteworthy changes in release 2.4.15 (2020-11-05) [stable] ** Bug fixes Ensure term.h matches [n]curses[w].h (fix #58880). Fix a potential crash in the Lisp “interpreter”. query-replace no longer prints the number of replacements on error. ** Build-related Various improvements and fixes, including updates to gnulib and bootstrap, improvements to the build instructions, and the removal of obsolete files. Use automake’s parallel test harness to run the tests. Make running the tests with Emacs optional. A lot of them do not pass any more with recent Emacsen, but this is not an urgent problem. Use ASAN instead of Valgrind for memory checking: this makes the tests run much faster. Remove the use of texinfo markup from docstrings. tbl_vars.h no longer needs to be generated from tbl_vars.h.in, as no substitutions were being made. ** Miscellaneous Some code clean-up, including a simplification to the calling convention for C functions that implement editor commands. Update some docstrings to match Emacs 27.1. -- If you have a working or partly working program that you'd like to offer to the GNU project as a GNU package, see https://www.gnu.org/help/evaluation.html.
zile-2.4.14 released [stable]

zile-2.4.10 released [stable]
I am hugely embarrassed to announce another release of Zile's stable C
branch: the awful truth is that the entire 2.4 series until now (that
is, for well over two years) has been eating all your memory: it
claimed to have garbage collection, but didn't.
On the other hand, no-one else noticed either.
As an extra incentive to upgrade, this release fixes a long-standing
and rather horrible performance bug in search (thanks to an
essentially useless implementation in GNU regex, which implements
searching of split strings by copying both halves of the split string
into a freshly-allocated string). Since fixing the implementation
would be a big effort for small reward, the simple solution is: don't
ever use re_{search,match}_2.
A clutch of printf format bugs is also fixed, thanks to GCC's ability
to check format strings in user functions. It seems the number of ways
you can improve C code with GCC are limited only by the time available
to understand and apply them.
Here are the compressed sources and a GPG detached signature[*]:
http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/zile/zile-2.4.10.tar.gz
http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/zile/zile-2.4.10.tar.gz.sig
Use a mirror for higher download bandwidth:
http://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html
[*] Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the
.sig suffix) is intact. First, be sure to download both the .sig file
and the corresponding tarball. Then, run a command like this:
gpg --verify zile-2.4.10.tar.gz.sig
If that command fails because you don't have the required public key,
then run this command to import it:
gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 68089F7380EE4A00
and rerun the 'gpg --verify' command.
This release was bootstrapped with the following tools:
Autoconf 2.69
Automake 1.13.3
Gnulib v0.1-82-gbe7d737
NEWS
* Noteworthy changes in release 2.4.10 (2014-02-25) [stable]
** Bug fixes
Actually use libgc. All of the previous 2.4 releases were eating all
your memory.
Fix speed of search on large buffers (previously, the entire buffer
was copied for each search). The fix was copied from Zee.
Make query-replace and save file prompt handling closer to Emacs.
Fix many printf format bugs in user functions, thanks to GCC.
** Build-related
Use pkgconfig to find libgc.
Improve use of GCC warnings.
** Miscellaneous
Some code clean-up.

Note in particular that the commands `suspend-zile', `save-buffers-kill-zile' and `view-zile-FAQ' are now called `suspend-emacs', `save-buffers-kill-emacs' and `view-emacs-FAQ' respectively, and `kill-line' now works with non-positive arguments.

Zile 2.3.2 released
I am happy to announce the release of Zile 2.3.2, the tiny Emacs clone. This release fixes a bug in filename completion introduced in the previous release that had serious results, and some minor problems in the build system, and improves the installation instructions. help2man is now needed to build Zile (and has been since 2.3.1).

Zile 2.3.0 released
I am happy to announce the release of Zile 2.3.0, the tiny Emacs clone. This release continues the code cleanup and portability fixes started in 2.2.60. gnulib is now used extensively, and 2,000 lines of code, or about 20% of the code base, has been removed by refactoring, simplification, and use of gnulib. The new minor version number reflects the magnitude of the change. To try to limit the number of bugs introduced as a result, and to aid future maintenance, a DejaGnu test suite has been added, which tests almost all the interactive commands. Many small bugs have been fixed, including cases where Zile did not behave like Emacs; some small limitations of Zile with respect to Emacs have been removed. Users are for the most part encouraged to upgrade, as this release is believed to be stable; however, cautious users may want to wait for further 2.3.x releases, or for a suitable length of time to elapse.
