Announcing the release of the PDL developers release to CPAN. To upgrade an existing PDL installation with the cpan shell, the following should work:
cpan CHM/PDL-2.4.6_010.tar.gz This release builds and installs the new Perldl2 shell by default (You'll need to install the latest Devel::REPL module to use it. See Perldl2/README in the distribution directory for additional information). If you try the Perldl2 shell (i.e., the pdl2 command), any feedback or problems or suggestions is welcome. Also in this release, progress in fixing the win32 build issues for using the PLplot library, a number bugs fixed, and some documentation improvements. Please see the Changes file or the Release_Notes for details. Enjoy! Chris Marshall for PDL Developers Release notes for PDL 2.4.6_010 -------------------------- General Notes: * This is a developers release! It is a snapshot of the current git development tree and everything may not work correctly or have complete documentation (as in these Release notes). Highlights: * Experimental perldl version 2 shell available. See the README file in PDL/Perldl2 for details. By default, the Perldl2 shell (i.e., pdl2) will be built and installed if you have already installed Devel::REPL version 1.003011 or higher. TAB completion for filenames and history expansion using '!' syntax works with either Term::ReadLine::Gnu or Term::ReadLine::Perl. If you use the ! operator in your perl code, be sure to follow it by a space so that it is not interpreted for history substitution. pdl2 now loads your ~/.pdlrc (or ~/.perldlrc) startup file and also local.pdlrc (or local.perldlrc) file if there is one in the current directory. Please report any problems or missing functionality to the PDL mailing list. help|usage|apropos|sig|badinfo|demo now autoquote their args. ? and ?? aliases for help and apropos work Shell command escapes for lines beginning with $PERLDL::ESCAPE (defaults to "#") work as well. * uniq/uniqind/uniqvec now handle BAD values or NaN values consistent with Matlab and between themselves. This fixes sf.net bug #3011659. * Many win32/win64 portability fixes for PLplot as well as various other documentation and other fixes.
