v0.5.6

0.5.6 (2021-06-27)

BREAKING CHANGE:

Features:

• function ... endfunction and function ... end are equivalent (increase compatibility ;).

  • About compatibility: scripts and functions developed with Nelson should work with other tools managing .m files. The reciprocal is not necessarily true.

  • .m is default and alone file extension.

• module skeleton updated to use to .m extension (Please update your code)

• run builtin can also evaluate a macro function.

• macro functions also searched in current directory.

• parser cleaned and generated with Bison 3.7.4

• narginchk builtin: checks number of input arguments.

• nargoutchk builtin: checks number of outnput arguments.

• #448: data analysis module (Code refactoring).

Bug Fixes:

• nmm('install', existing_module_directory) did not work as expected.

• #451: var() returns an unexpected error.

Compilation:

• #455: M1 macOS apple native support. It works but some gui features can crash due to young Qt support on M1.

• Update fmt library to 8.0.
