* Add exit status to IO_WaitPid
* Make IO usable in the HPC-GAP threads
* Replace the deprecated `Elements` in examples by `AsSet`
* Add IO_getcwd to query the current working directory

* Sat Feb 03 2018 jengelhAATTinai.de- Update to new upstream release 4.5.1
* Fix a bug which could break usage IO_mkstemp or IO_mkdtemp in a loaded GAP workspace.
* Sun Dec 24 2017 jengelhAATTinai.de- Update to new upstream release 4.5.0
* Add support for (un)pickling ranges and character tables
* Add automatic call to InstallSIGCHLDHandler() when IO_Fork is used directly or indirectly. As a consequence, code directly calling IO_fork must now always call IO_WaitPid or the new IO_IgnorePid
* Remove undocumented function IO_MasterPointerNumber
* Sun Jun 19 2016 jengelhAATTinai.de- Update to new upstream release 4.4.6
* Remove support for (un)pickling SuPeRfail

* Don\'t wait for child processes to exit on GAP exit
* Fri Dec 12 2014 jengelhAATTinai.de- Update to new upstream release 4.4.4
* Fix a bug in the IO_Write code, which for example could cause IO_WriteLine to fail for certain long string
* Fix problem with IO_Pickling some very large objects
* Add pickle support for transformations and partial permutations
* Try to ensure files are flushed on exit, even if they are not explicitly closed.
* Ensure file buffers are flushed before GAP closes, to avoid data loss when files are not closed before exiting.
* Add = and < methods for IsFile objects
