* Mon Nov 30 2020 aloisioAATTgmx.com- Update to version 5.10.0 Features:
* The unsparsify -f feature fulfills #387 from AATTsjackman .
* The new sort-within-records verb is an old ask, underway from the Go port, backported to C.
* Likewise the truncate DSL function. Bugfixes:
* The count -n feature was not implemented as intended.
* Pretty-print format now works correctly with - -headerless-csv-output.

* Wed Aug 19 2020 aloisioAATTgmx.com- Update to version 5.9.0
* You can now save common defaults in a ~/.mlrrc. For example, if you normally process CSV files, you can say that in your ~/.mlrrc and you can leave off the --csv flag from your mlr commands.
* Tue Aug 04 2020 aloisioAATTgmx.com- Update to version 5.8.0 Features:
* The new count verb is a keystroke-saver for stats -a count - f {some field name}`.
* --jsonx and --ojsonx are keystroke-savers for --json - -jvstack and --ojson --jvstack, which is to say, multi-line pretty-printed JSON format.
* The new -s name=value feature for mlr put and mlr filter gives you simpler access to environment variables in your Miller script, as requested in #315. Bugfixes:
* mlr format-values is no longer SEGVing on CSV/TSV input. This was reported on #330.
* #313 fixes a corner case when field names within command-line arguments have embedded newlines.
* Line/column indicators for JSON-formatting error messages are now correct (previously they were showing up as 0).
* end {print NF} no longer SEGVs. This was reported in #330.
* Several broken doc links were fixed up as reported on #329.- Drop miller-5.3.0-gcc43.patch (no longer necessary)- Spec cleanup
* Tue Mar 17 2020 aloisioAATTgmx.com- Update to version 5.7.0 Features:
* The new remove-empty-columns and skip-trivial-records are keystroke-savers for things which would other require DSL syntax, as tracked in #274. Bugfixes:
* A bug regarding optional regex-pattern groups was fixed in [#277].
* As of #294 you can now specify --implicit-csv-header for the join-file in mlr join.
* A bug with spaces in XTAB-file values was fixed on #296.
* A bug with missing final newline for XTAB-formatted files using MMAP files was fixed on #301.- Drop group tag
* Sun Sep 22 2019 Luigi Baldoni - Update to version 5.6.2
* #271 fixes a corner-case bug with more than 100 CSV/TSV files with headers of varying lengths.
* Fri Sep 13 2019 Luigi Baldoni - Update to version 5.6.0 Features:
* The new system DSL function allows you to run arbitrary shell commands and store them in field values. Some example usages are documented here. This is in response to issues #246 and #209.
* There is now support for ASV and USV file formats. This is in response to issue #245.
* The new format-values verb allows you to apply numerical formatting across all record values. This is in response to issue #252. Documentation:
* The new DKVP I/O in Python sample code now works for Python 2 as well as Python 3.
* There is a new cookbook entry on doing multiple joins. This is in response to issue #235. Bugfixes:
* The toupper, tolower, and capitalize DSL functions are now UTF-8 aware, thanks to AATTsheredom\'s marvelous https://github.com/sheredom/utf8.h. The internationalization page has also been expanded. This is in response to issue #254.
* #250 fixes a bug using in-place mode in conjunction with verbs (such as rename or sort) which take field-name lists as arguments.
* #253 fixes a bug in the label when one or more names are common between old and new.
* #251 fixes a corner-case bug when (a) input is CSV; (b) the last field ends with a comma and no newline; (c) input is from standard input and/or --no-mmap is supplied.
* Sun Sep 01 2019 Luigi Baldoni - Update to version 5.5.0
* Positional indexing and other data-cleaning features Features:
* The new positional-indexing feature resolves #236 from AATTaborruso. You can now get the name of the 3rd field of each record via $[[3]], and its value by $[[[3]]]. These are both usable on either the left-hand or right-hand side of assignment statements, so you can more easily do things like renaming fields progrmatically within the DSL.
* There is a new capitalize DSL function, complementing the already-existing toupper. This stems from #236.
* There is a new skip-trivial-records verb, resolving #197. Similarly, there is a new remove-empty-columns verb, resolving [#206]. Both are useful for data-cleaning use-cases.
* Another pair is #181 and #256. While Miller uses mmap internally (and invisibily) to get approximately a 20% performance boost over not using it, this can cause out-of-memory issues with reading either large files, or too many small ones. Now, Miller automatically avoids mmap in these cases. You can still use --mmap or --no-mmap if you want manual control of this.
* There is a new --ivar option for the nest verb which complements the already-existing --evar. This is from #260 thanks to AATTjgreely.
* There is a new keystroke-saving urandrange DSL function: urandrange(low, high) is the same as low + (high - low)
* urand().
* There is a new -v option for the cat verb which writes a low-level record-structure dump to standard error.
* There is a new -N option for mlr which is a keystroke-saver for --implicit-csv-header --headerless-csv-output. Documentation:
* The new FAQ entry http://johnkerl.org/miller/doc/faq.html#How_to_escape_\'%3F\'_in_re gexes%3F resolves #203.
* The new FAQ entry http://johnkerl.org/miller/doc/faq.html#How_can_I_filter_by_date% 3F resolves #208.
* #244 fixes a documentation issue while highlighting the need for #241. Bugfixes:
* There was a SEGV using nest within then-chains, fixed in response to #220.
* Quotes and backslashes weren\'t being escaped in JSON output with --jvquoteall; reported on #222.
* Mon Oct 15 2018 Luigi Baldoni - Update to version 5.4.0 Features:
* The new clean-whitespace verb resolves #190 from AATTaborruso. Along with the new functions strip, lstrip, rstrip, collapse_whitespace, and clean_whitespace, there is now both coarse-grained and fine-grained control over whitespace within field names and/or values. See the linked-to documentation for examples.
* The new altkv verb resolves #184 which was originally opened via an email request. This supports mapping value-lists such as a,b,c,d to alternating key-value pairs such as a=b,c=d.
* The new fill-down verb resolves #189 by AATTaborruso. See the linked-to documentation for examples.
* The uniq verb now has a uniq -a which resolves #168 from AATTsjackman.
* The new regextract and regextract_or_else functions resolve [#183] by AATTaborruso.
* The new ssub function arises from #171 by AATTdohse, as a simplified way to avoid escaping characters which are special to regular-expression parsers.
* There are new localtime functions in response to #170 by AATTsitaramc. However note that as discussed on #170 these do not undo one another in all circumstances. This is a non-issue for timezones which do not do DST. Otherwise, please use with disclaimers: localdate, localtime2sec, sec2localdate, sec2localtime, strftime_local, and strptime_local.
* Travis builds at https://travis-ci.org/johnkerl/miller/builds now run on OSX as well as Linux.
* An Ubuntu 17 build issue was fixed by AATTsingalen on #164. Documentation:
* put/filter documentation was confusing as reported by AATTNikosAlexandris on #169.
* The new FAQ entry http://johnkerl.org/miller-releases/miller-head/doc/faq.html#How_ to_rectangularize_after_joins_with_unpaired? resolves #193 by AATTaborruso.
* The new cookbook entry http://johnkerl.org/miller/doc/cookbook.html#Options_for_dealing_ with_duplicate_rows arises from #168 from AATTsjackman.
* The unsparsify documentation had some words missing as reported by AATTtst2005 on #194.
* There was a typo in the cookpage page http://johnkerl.org/miller/doc/cookbook.html#Full_field_renames_a nd_reassigns as fixed by AATTtst2005 in #192. Bugfixes:
* There was a memory leak for TSV-format files only as reported by AATTtreynr on #181.
* Dollar sign in regular expressions were not being escaped properly as reported by AATTdohse on #171.
* Sun Jan 07 2018 aloisioAATTgmx.com- Update to version 5.3.0 (see draft-release-notes.md for a changelog)- Added miller-5.3.0-gcc43.patch
* Thu Aug 24 2017 aloisioAATTgmx.com- Updated license
* Thu Jul 20 2017 aloisioAATTgmx.com- Update to 5.2.2
* This bugfix release delivers a fix for #147 where a memory allocation failed beyond 4GB.
* Tue Jun 20 2017 aloisioAATTgmx.com- Update to version 5.2.1
* Fixes (gh#johnkerl/miller#142) build segfault on non-x86 architectures
* Tue Jun 13 2017 aloisioAATTgmx.com- Update to version 5.2.0 This release contains mostly feature requests. Features:
* The stats1 verb now lets you use regular expressions to specify which field names to compute statistics on, and/or which to group by. Full details are here.
* The min and max DSL functions, and the min/max/percentile aggregators for the stats1 and merge-fields verbs, now support numeric as well as string field values. (For mixed string/numeric fields, numbers compare before strings.) This means in particular that order statistics -- min, max, and non-interpolated percentiles -- as well as mode, antimode, and count are now possible on string-only fields. (Of course, any operations requiring arithmetic on values, such as computing sums, averages, or interpolated percentiles, yield an error on string-valued input.)
* There is a new DSL function mapexcept which returns a copy of the argument with specified key(s), if any, unset. The motivating use-case is to split records to multiple filenames depending on particular field value, which is omitted from the output: mlr - -from f.dat put \'tee > \"/tmp/data-\".$a, mapexcept($
*, \"a\")\' Likewise, mapselect returns a copy of the argument with only specified key(s), if any, set. This resolves #137.
* A new -u option for count-distinct allows unlashed counts for multiple field names. For example, with -f a,b and without -u, count-distinct computes counts for distinct pairs of a and b field values. With -f a,b and with -u, it computes counts for distinct a field values and counts for distinct b field values separately.
* If you build from source, you can now do ./configure without first doing autoreconf -fiv. This resolves #131.
* The UTF-8 BOM sequence 0xef 0xbb 0xbf is now automatically ignored from the start of CSV files. (The same is already done for JSON files.) This resolves #138.
* For put and filter with -S, program literals such as the 6 in $x = 6 were being parsed as strings. This is not sensible, since the -S option for put and filter is intended to suppress numeric conversion of record data, not program literals. To get string 6 one may use $x = \"6\". Documentation:
* A new cookbook example shows how to compute differences between successive queries, e.g. to find out what changed in time-varying data when you run and rerun a SQL query.
* Another new cookbook example shows how to compute interquartile ranges.
* A third new cookbook example shows how to compute weighted means. Bugfixes:
* CRLF line-endings were not being correctly autodetected when I/O formats were specified using --c2j et al.
* Integer division by zero was causing a fatal runtime exception, rather than computing inf or nan as in the floating-point case.
* Sat Apr 15 2017 aloisioAATTgmx.com- Update to 5.1.0 (see changelog at https://github.com/johnkerl/miller/releases/tag/v5.1.0)
* Sun Mar 12 2017 aloisioAATTgmx.com- Update to version 5.0.1 Minor bugfixes:
* As described in #132, mlr nest was incorrectly splitting fields with multi-character separators.
* The XTAB-format reader, when using multi-character IPS, was incorrectly splitting key-value pairs, but only when reading from standard input (e.g. on a pipe or less-than redirect).
* Tue Feb 28 2017 aloisioAATTgmx.com- Initial package (v5.0.0)
