- Update to version 5.4.0
  Features:
  * The new clean-whitespace verb resolves #190 from @aborruso.
    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 @aborruso. See the
    linked-to documentation for examples.
  * The uniq verb now has a uniq -a which resolves #168 from
    @sjackman.
  * The new regextract and regextract_or_else functions resolve
    #183 by @aborruso.
  * The new ssub function arises from #171 by @dohse, 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
    @sitaramc. 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 @singalen on #164.
  Documentation:
  * put/filter documentation was confusing as reported by
    @NikosAlexandris 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
    @aborruso.
  * The new cookbook entry
    http://johnkerl.org/miller/doc/cookbook.html#Options_for_dealing_
    with_duplicate_rows arises from #168 from @sjackman.
  * The unsparsify documentation had some words missing as
    reported by @tst2005 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 @tst2005 in #192.
  Bugfixes:
  * There was a memory leak for TSV-format files only as
    reported by @treynr on #181.
  * Dollar sign in regular expressions were not being escaped
    properly as reported by @dohse on #171.

Tue Jun 13 08:06:28 UTC 2017 - aloisio@gmx.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.

  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).
