- RT #124469, #124494, perltidy often making empty files. The previous had
an index error causing it to fail, particularly in version 5.18 of Perl.
Please avoid version 20180219.

- RT #79947, cuddled-else generalization. A new flag -cb provides
\'cuddled-else\' type formatting for an arbitrary type of block chain. The
default is try-catch-finally, but this can be modified with the
parameter -cbl.
- Fixed RT #124298: add space after ! operator without breaking !! secret
operator
- RT #123749: numerous minor improvements to the -wn flag were made.
- Fixed a problem with convergence tests in which iterations were stopping
prematurely.
- Here doc targets for <<~ type here-docs may now have leading whitespace.
- Fixed RT #124354. The \'-indent-only\' flag was not working correctly in the
previous release. A bug in version 20180101 caused extra blank lines
to be output.
- Issue RT #124114. Some improvements were made in vertical alignment
involving \'fat commas\'.

- Added new flag -wn (--weld-nested-containers) which addresses these issues:
RT #123749: Problem with promises;
RT #119970: opening token stacking strange behavior;
RT #81853: Can\'t stack block braces
This option causes closely nested pairs of opening and closing containers
to be \"welded\" together and essentially be formatted as a single unit,
with just one level of indentation.
Since this is a new flag it is set to be \"off\" by default but it has given
excellent results in testing.
EXAMPLE 1, multiple blocks, default formatting:
do {
{
next if $x == $y; # do something here
}
} until $x++ > $z;
perltidy -wn
do { {
next if $x == $y;
} } until $x++ > $z;
EXAMPLE 2, three levels of wrapped function calls, default formatting:
p(
em(
conjug(
translate( param(\'verb\') ), param(\'tense\'),
param(\'person\')
)
)
);
[#] perltidy -wn
p( em( conjug(
translate( param(\'verb\') ),
param(\'tense\'), param(\'person\')
) ) );
[#] EXAMPLE 3, chained method calls, default formatting:
get(\'http://mojolicious.org\')->then(
sub {
my $mojo = shift;
say $mojo->res->code;
return get(\'http://metacpan.org\');
}
)->then(
sub {
my $cpan = shift;
say $cpan->res->code;
}
)->catch(
sub {
my $err = shift;
warn \"Something went wrong: $err\";
}
)->wait;
[#] perltidy -wn
get(\'http://mojolicious.org\')->then( sub {
my $mojo = shift;
say $mojo->res->code;
return get(\'http://metacpan.org\');
} )->then( sub {
my $cpan = shift;
say $cpan->res->code;
} )->catch( sub {
my $err = shift;
warn \"Something went wrong: $err\";
} )->wait;
- Fixed RT #114359: Missparsing of \"print $x
*
* 0.5;
- Deactivated the --check-syntax flag for better security. It will be
ignored if set.
- Corrected minimum perl version from 5.004 to 5.008 based on perlver
report. The change is required for coding involving wide characters.
- For certain severe errors, the source file will be copied directly to the
output without formatting. These include ending in a quote, ending in a
here doc, and encountering an unidentified character.

- RT #123749, partial fix. \"Continuation indentation\" is removed from lines
with leading closing parens which are part of a call chain.
For example, the call to pack() is is now outdented to the starting
indentation in the following experession:
[#] OLD
$mw->Button(
- text => \"New Document\",
- command => \\&new_document
)->pack(
- side => \'bottom\',
- anchor => \'e\'
);
[#] NEW
$mw->Button(
- text => \"New Document\",
- command => \\&new_document
)->pack(
- side => \'bottom\',
- anchor => \'e\'
);
This modification improves readability of complex expressions, especially
when the user uses the same value for continuation indentation (-ci=n) and
normal indentation (-i=n). Perltidy was already programmed to
do this but a minor bug was preventing it.
- RT #123774, added flag to control space between a backslash and a single or
double quote, requested by Robert Rothenberg. The issue is that lines like
$str1=\\\"string1\";
$str2=\\\'string2\';
confuse syntax highlighters unless a space is left between the backslash and
the quote.
The new flag to control this is -sbq=n (--space-backslash-quote=n),
where n=0 means no space, n=1 means follow existing code, n=2 means always
space. The default is n=1, meaning that a space will be retained if there
is one in the source code.
- Fixed RT #123492, support added for indented here doc operator <<~ added
in v5.26. Thanks to Chris Weyl for the report.
- Fixed docs; --closing-side-comment-list-string should have been just
- -closing-side-comment-list. Thanks to F.Li.
- Added patch RT #122030] Perl::Tidy sometimes does not call binmode.
Thanks to Irilis Aelae.
- Fixed RT #121959, PERLTIDY doesn\'t honor the \'three dot\' notation for
locating a config file using environment variables. Thanks to John
Wittkowski.
- Minor improvements to formatting, in which some additional vertical
aligmnemt is done. Thanks to Keith Neargarder.
- RT #119588. Vertical alignment is no longer done for // operator.

- Fixed debian #862667: failure to check for perltidy.ERR deletion can lead
to overwriting abritrary files by symlink attack. Perltidy was continuing
to write files after an unlink failure. Thanks to Don Armstrong
for a patch.
- Fixed RT #116344, perltidy fails on certain anonymous hash references:
in the following code snippet the \'?\' was misparsed as a pattern
delimiter rather than a ternary operator.
return ref {} ? 1 : 0;
- Fixed RT #113792: misparsing of a fat comma (=>) right after
the __END__ or __DATA__ tokens. These keywords were getting
incorrectly quoted by the following => operator.
- Fixed RT #118558. Custom Getopt::Long configuration breaks parsing
of perltidyrc. Perltidy was resetting the users configuration too soon.
- Fixed RT #119140, failure to parse double diamond operator. Code to
handle this new operator has been added.
- Fixed RT #120968. Fixed problem where -enc=utf8 didn\'t work
with --backup-and-modify-in-place. Thanks to Heinz Knutzen for this patch.
- Fixed minor formatting issue where one-line blocks for subs with signatures
were unnecesarily broken
- RT #32905, patch to fix utf-8 error when output was STDOUT.
- RT #79947, improved spacing of try/catch/finally blocks. Thanks to qsimpleq
for a patch.
- Fixed #114909, Anonymous subs with signatures and prototypes misparsed as
broken ternaries, in which a statement such as this was not being parsed
correctly:
return sub ( $fh, $out ) : prototype(
*$) { ... }
- Implemented RT #113689, option to introduces spaces after an opening block
brace and before a closing block brace. Four new optional controls are
added. The first two define the minimum number of blank lines to be
inserted
- blao=i or --blank-lines-after-opening-block=i
- blbc=i or --blank-lines-before-closing-block=i
where i is an integer, the number of lines (the default is 0).
The second two define the types of blocks to which the first two apply
- blaol=s or --blank-lines-after-opening-block-list=s
- blbcl=s or --blank-lines-before-closing-block-list=s
where s is a string of possible block keywords (default is just \'sub\',
meaning a named subroutine).
For more information please see the documentation.
- The method for specifying block types for certain input parameters has
been generalized to distinguish between normal named subroutines and
anonymous subs. The keyword for normal subroutines remains \'sub\', and
the new keyword for anonymous subs is \'asub\'.
- Minor documentation changes. The BUGS sections now have a link
to CPAN where most open bugs and issues can be reviewed and bug reports
can be submitted. The information in the AUTHOR and CREDITS sections of
the man pages have been removed from the man pages to streamline the
documentation. This information is still in the source code.

- RT #112534. Corrected a minor problem in which an unwanted newline
was placed before the closing brace of an anonymous sub with
a signature, if it was in a list. Thanks to Dmytro Zagashev.
- Corrected a minor problem in which occasional extra indentation was
given to the closing brace of an anonymous sub in a list when the -lp
parameter was set.
2016 03 01
- RT #104427. Added support for signatures.
- RT #111512. Changed global warning flag $^W = 1 to use warnings;
Thanks to Dmytro Zagashev.
- RT #110297, added support for new regexp modifier /n
Thanks to Dmytro Zagashev.
- RT #111519. The -io (--indent-only) and -dac (--delete-all-comments)
can now both be used in one pass. Thanks to Dmitry Veltishev.
- Patch to avoid error message with \'catch\' used by TryCatch, as in
catch($err){
[#] do something
}
Thanks to Nick Tonkin.
- RT #32905, UTF-8 coding is now more robust. Thanks to qsimpleq
and Dmytro for patches.
- RT #106885. Added string bitwise operators ^. &. |. ~. ^.= &.= |.=
- Fixed RT #107832 and #106492, lack of vertical alignment of two lines
when -boc flag (break at old commas) is set. This bug was
inadvertantly introduced in previous bug fix RT #98902.
- Some common extensions to Perl syntax are handled better.
In particular, the following snippet is now foratted cleanly:
method deposit( Num $amount) {
$self->balance( $self->balance + $amount );
}
A new flag -xs (--extended-syntax) was added to enable this, and the default
is to use -xs.
In previous versions, and now only when -nxs is set, this snippet of code
generates the following error message:
\"syntax error at \') {\', didn\'t see one of: case elsif for foreach given if switch unless until when while\"

- Fixed RT# 105484, Invalid warning about \'else\' in \'switch\' statement. The
warning happened if a \'case\' statement did not use parens.
- Fixed RT# 101547, misparse of // caused error message. Also..
- Fixed RT# 102371, misparse of // caused unwated space in //=
- Fixed RT# 100871, \"silent failure of HTML Output on Windows\".
Changed calls to tempfile() from:
my ( $fh_tmp, $tmpfile ) = tempfile();
to have the full path name:
my ( $fh_tmp, $tmpfile ) = File::Temp::tempfile()
because of problems in the Windows version reported by Dean Pearce.
- Fixed RT# 99514, calling the perltidy module multiple times with
a .perltidyrc file containing the parameter --output-line-ending
caused a crash. This was a glitch in the memoization logic.
- Fixed RT#99961, multiple lines inside a cast block caused unwanted
continuation indentation.
- RT# 32905, broken handling of UTF-8 strings.
A new flag -utf8 causes perltidy assume UTF-8 encoding for input and
output of an io stream. Thanks to Sebastian Podjasek for a patch.
This feature may not work correctly in older versions of Perl.
It worked in a linux version 5.10.1 but not in a Windows version 5.8.3 (but
otherwise perltidy ran correctly).
- Warning files now report perltidy VERSION. Suggested by John Karr.
- Fixed long flag --nostack-closing-tokens (-nsct has always worked though).
This was due to a typo. This also fixed --nostack-opening-tokens to
behave correctly. Thanks to Rob Dixon.

Mon Sep 15 14:00:00 2014 cooloAATTsuse.com
- updated to 20140711
- Fixed RT #94902: abbreviation parsing in .perltidyrc files was not
working for multi-line abbreviations. Thanks to Eric Fung for
supplying a patch.
- Fixed RT #95708, misparsing of a hash when the first key was a perl
keyword, causing a semicolon to be incorrectly added.
- Fixed RT #94338 for-loop in a parenthesized block-map. A code block within
parentheses of a map, sort, or grep function was being mistokenized. In
rare cases this could produce in an incorrect error message. The fix will
produce some minor formatting changes. Thanks to Daniel Trizen
discovering and documenting this.
- Fixed RT #94354, excess indentation for stacked tokens. Thanks to
Colin Williams for supplying a patch.
- Added support for experimental postfix dereferencing notation introduced in
perl 5.20. RT #96021.
- Updated documentation to clarify the behavior of the -io flag
in response to RT #95709. You can add -noll or -l=0 to prevent
long comments from being outdented when -io is used.
- Added a check to prevent a problem reported in RT #81866, where large
scripts which had been compressed to a single line could not be formatted
because of a check for VERSION for MakeMaker. The workaround was to
use -nvpl, but this shouldn\'t be necessary now.
- Fixed RT #96101; Closing brace of anonymous sub in a list was being
indented. For example, the closing brace of the anonymous sub below
will now be lined up with the word \'callback\'. This problem
occured if there was no comma after the closing brace of the anonymous sub.
This update may cause minor changes to formatting of code with lists
of anonymous subs, especially TK code.

Fri Oct 4 14:00:00 2013 cooloAATTsuse.com
- updated to 20130922
- Fixed RT #88020. --converge was not working with wide characters.
- Fixed RT #78156. package NAMESPACE VERSION syntax not accepted.
- First attempt to fix RT #88588. INDEX END tag change in pod2html breaks
perltidy -html. I put in a patch which should work but I don\'t yet have
a way of testing it.

Tue Aug 6 14:00:00 2013 cooloAATTsuse.com
- updated to 20130806
- Fixed RT #87107, spelling
- Fixed RT #87502, incorrect of parsing of smartmatch before hash brace
- Added feature request RT #87330, trim whitespace after POD.
The flag -trp (--trim-pod) will trim trailing whitespace from lines of POD

Sat Jul 27 14:00:00 2013 cooloAATTsuse.com
- updated to 20130717
- Fixed RT #86929, #86930, missing lhs of assignment.
- Fixed RT #84922, moved pod from Tidy.pm into Tidy.pod

Sun Jun 9 14:00:00 2013 cooloAATTsuse.com
- updated to 20121207
- The flag -cab=n or --comma-arrow-breakpoints=n has been generalized
to give better control over breaking open short containers. The
possible values are now:
n=0 break at all commas after =>
n=1 stable: break at all commas after => if container is open,
EXCEPT FOR one-line containers
n=2 break at all commas after =>, BUT try to form the maximum
maximum one-line container lengths
n=3 do not treat commas after => specially at all
n=4 break everything: like n=0 but also break a short container with
a => not followed by a comma
n=5 stable: like n=1 but ALSO break at open one-line containers (default)
New values n=4 and n=5 have been added to allow short blocks to be
broken open. The new default is n=5, stable. It should more closely
follow the breaks in the input file, and previously formatted code
should remain unchanged. If this causes problems use -cab=1 to recover
the former behavior. Thanks to Tony Maszeroski for the suggestion.
To illustrate the need for the new options, if perltidy is given
the following code, then the old default (-cab=1) was to close up
the \'index\' container even if it was open in the source. The new
default (-cab=5) will keep it open if it was open in the source.
our $fancypkg = {
\'ALL\' => {
\'index\' => {
\'key\' => \'value\',
},
\'alpine\' => {
\'one\' => \'+\',
\'two\' => \'+\',
\'three\' => \'+\',
},
}
};
- New debug flag --memoize (-mem). This version contains a
patch supplied by Jonathan Swartz which can significantly speed up
repeated calls to Perl::Tidy::perltidy in a single process by caching
the result of parsing the formatting parameters. A factor of up to 10
speedup was achieved for masontidy (https://metacpan.org/module/masontidy).
The memoization patch is on by default but can be deactivated for
testing with -nmem (or --no-memoize).

Mon Dec 19 13:00:00 2011 cooloAATTsuse.de
- update to 20101217
- added new flag -it=n or --iterations=n
- A configuration file pathname begins with three dots, e.g.
\".../.perltidyrc\", indicates that the file should be searched for starting
in the current directory and working upwards.
- Added flag --notidy which disables all formatting and causes the input to be
copied unchanged.
- Added prefilters and postfilters in the call to the Tidy.pm module.
- The starting indentation level of sections of code entabbed with -et=n
is correctly guessed if it was also produced with the same -et=n flag. This
keeps the indentation stable on repeated formatting passes within an editor.
Thanks to Sam Kington and Glenn.
- Functions with prototype \'&\' had a space between the function and opening peren.
- Patch to never put spaces around a bare word in braces beginning with ^
