-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Zsh version 3.1.3 has been released!

This is a beta release.  People requiring maximum stability should

Information on finding the latest Zsh versions, the Zsh FAQ and

files should appear on all mirror sites within a couple of days.

The complete source is in zsh-3.1.3.tar.gz.  zsh-3.1.3-doc.tar.gz contains
preformatted PostScript, DVI, HTML and Info documentation for those who
do not have the necessary tools to compile these from the sources.

zsh-3.1.2-3.1.3.diff.gz contains the patch against zsh-3.1.2.  If you
already have zsh-3.1.2 go to the zsh-3.1.2 source directory and do

	gunzip < zsh-3.1.2-3.1.3.diff.gz | patch -p0
	touch configure stamp-h.in

zsh-3.1.2-zefram4-3.1.3.diff.gz contains the patch against the unofficial
zsh-3.1.2-zefram4 release.

Release 3.1.3 changes
=====================

The globbing code has been changed significantly, to perform correct
pattern matching with backtracking.  This means that more complex
patterns, that previously didn't work correctly, now do.

New KSH_GLOB option emulates ksh's extended glob syntax.  This option
is enabled by default if zsh is invoked as ksh.

Some new completion features: completion within brace expansions, compctl
option -/ to complete to directory names (useful with -g), some other new
compctl options.  Many new or updated compctls in Misc/compctl-examples.

There are many bugfixes and other changes.  For a more detailed list,
see the ChangeLog file.

AUTHOR

Zsh was originally written by Paul Falstad <pjf@xxxxxxx>.
Zsh is now maintained by the members of the zsh workers mailing list
<zsh-workers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>.  The development is currently
coordinated by Andrew Main (Zefram) <zefram@xxxxxxxx>.
The coordinator can be contacted at <coordinator@xxxxxxx>,
but matters relating to the code should generally go to the
mailing list.
