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

- -----------------------------------
ZSH VERSION 3.1.5 HAS BEEN RELEASED
- -----------------------------------

This is a beta release.  People requiring maximum stability should
continue using version 3.0.5.

Information on finding the latest Zsh versions, the Zsh FAQ and
documentation can be found in the META-FAQ, included below.  The 3.1.5
files should appear on all mirror sites within a couple of days.

The complete source is in zsh-3.1.5.tar.gz.  zsh-3.1.5-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-3.1.4-3.1.5.diff.gz contains the patch against zsh-3.1.4.  If you
already have zsh-3.1.4 go to the zsh-3.1.4 source directory and do

	gunzip < zsh-3.1.4-3.1.5.diff.gz | patch -p0
	touch configure stamp-h.in

Release 3.1.5 changes
- ---------------------

Globbing now supports the POSIX character classes, so that, for example,
[[:upper:]_] now does what was traditionally expressed as [A-Z_].

The universal-argument ZLE function now behaves like the EMACS one,
accepting an arbitrary numeric argument.

A bug in utmp handling that prevented compilation on HP-UX is fixed.

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

Author

Zsh was originally written by Paul Falstad <pf@xxxxxxx>.

list <zsh-workers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>.  The development is currently
coordinated by Andrew Main (Zefram) <zefram@xxxxxxx>.  The coordinator
can be contacted at <coordinator@xxxxxxx>, but matters relating to
the code should generally go to the mailing list.
