"Manifest Filters" (to make simple filter writing easier), recursive globbing (similar to zsh), and a new delenv builtin have been added. kill now takes multiple process IDs, and some more work has been done on I18N.
New builtins (builtin, env, help, unalias), enhanced builtins (alias, bg, cd, fg), a working Win32 port, enhancements to TAB completions, including bookmarks, hash keys, package names, and custom, locales for Default (English), French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish, and prompt evaluation is now more bash compatible and handles even more complex prompts.
This version of the Perl Shell adds significant functionality. However, it is still an early development release. New features include rudimentary background jobs handling and job management, signal handling, filename completion, updates to history handling, flexible %built_ins mechanism for adding built-in functions and smart mode is now on by default.
A couple of typos and the code that detects the presence of Term::ReadLine have been fixed, the prompt string is now passed to iget(), which passes it to Term::ReadLine::readline or prints it out if the ReadLine module is not available, history handling has been changed so that empty lines and those consisting entirely of whitespace are not recorded, the regular expression for "smart mode" now allows "vi +3 psh" in addition to "ls -l", Getopt::Std is now used for option processing, more use is made of debug mode to print advisory information, and zero is now used instead of undef to set Term::ReadLine::MinLine to avoid undef usage trouble in Term::ReadLine::Gnu.
