• New Tutorial section in the reference manual.
• New "*" paramater to support tags with variable arguments
• Fixed parsing of html comments and embedded PHP code.
• The `$'-operator now works in comments and PHP code.
• When `$' is used without curly braces, the scope is now more intuitive.
• Removed crash when htp is invoked with an illegal option.
• Made error messages more understandable.
• Fixed parsing of jpeg files to support extended formats.
• Preserve white-spaces in HTML-tags as much as possible.
• Don't allow white-spaces between attribute name and value any more.
• htp becomes SourceForge project
• New location for on-line documentation,
• The `$'-operator can be nested.
• New tags: BLOCKDEF, INC, OUTPUT, QUOTE, WHILE
• New attributes EXPAND and GLOBAL
• Environment variables are now accessible as macros
• New predefined macros: _htpfile_out, _htpfile_in
• New "semi-condensed" mode
• IMG tag supports png images.
• New location for on-line documentation,
• New location for on-line documentation,
• First release by new maintainer, Robert King.
• No change to behaviour of program from 1.10 at all.
• Fixed a bug in the memory suballocator. Some CPUs will fault on non-DWORD aligned accesses, which suballoc does continuously. Essentially, htp will coredump almost immediately. Fixed.
• Allan Todds pointed out a rather severe limitation regarding how htp handles HTML comments. If the comments are too long, htp would puke. This is a particular problem because JavaScript and VBScript are embedded inside a single comment. This has been fixed.
• The memory suballocator has a new feature to release memory back to the system heap if it grows past a preset bound.
• Richard Crane pointed out a real bugger: response files would not work with tabs or multiple spaces between file names. Fixed on both counts.
• From Mark Roedel's suggestion, I've added comments to response files.
• Metatags added!
• Broke down and gave in ... time for a real release.
• Added parameter support for FILE INCLUDE and BLOCK macros expanded with the USE tag.
• $ macro expansion can now occur anywhere in a markup: the tag name, an attribute name, or an attribute value.
• New memory allocator (suballoc.c) added, and several memory leaks found and squashed. Increased performance as well.
• Finally! Added support for default ALT text for image files.
• Support for project default files added.
• New CONDENSE option added.
• FILE TIME and DATE now report the source file's time and date, and not the current.
• Options can now be placed in response files.
• Options are processed in a single module rather than haphazardly throughout the code.
• Support for using different delimiters around htp markups added. htp markups can now be surrounded by curly braces or square brackets. See Creating htp files for more information.
• File templates now formally supported.
• Macro store revised with hash table for faster lookups.
• JPEG support finally added.
• htp will now delete incomplete output files unless the PRECIOUS option is used.
• Automatically places quotation marks around a macro expanded inside a markup provided it is not surrounded by other text. See USE for more detailed information.
• Previously, the macro parser did not escape dual '$' characters. Fixed.
• Added support for a defaults file. See Default files for more information.
• Added support for an include file search path. See FILE for more information.
• FILE TIME and FILE DATE now accept values, which are interpreted as formatting characters to display the time or the date. See FILE for more information and warnings.
• FILE EXECUTE implemented.
• Ported old linear-style readme.txt file to friendly, clean HTML on-line reference you are now using. 8-)
• Block macros can now be embedded inside another block macro.
• Hell's bells ... was not checking that macro existed before dereferencing.
• Added dependency checking. htp will now only build the output file if any of the input files have changed (according to file timestamps). Can be disabled with the NODEPEND option.
• Added some additional code to prevent numerous (but harmless) compiler warnings.
• Added FILE SIZE, FILE DATE, and FILE TIME that works in conjunction with a NAME attribute to report respective information for an external file.
• Switched to large model for DOS version, to avoid memory constraints of small model.
• Added the UNSET tag.
• Fixed bug related to re-defining macros and defining null-length macros.
• Can now declare multiple SET macros in the same tag.
• Various code issues brought to my attention by Joseph Dandrea of AT&T Bell Laboratories (joseph.dandrea@att.com). Joseph provided many helpful insights and pointed out many potential problems in a massive (and desparately needed) code review. htp is a much stronger program thanks to his excellent support.
• In both response files and FILE INCLUDE's, the directory delimiter (forward slash in UNIX, backwards slash in MS-DOS) is parsed to match the native filesystem ... in other words, no need to change sources when moving from UNIX to DOS or vice-versa. Suggested by Chris Jobling (C.P.Jobling@swansea.ac.uk).
• IFNOT tag removed, replaced with IF NOT, which is more compliant with HTML.
• Braces around macros implemented.
• htp was leaving linefeeds for lines that contained stripped-out tags. The resulting HTML was somewhat sloppy. Fixed.
• Error and warning reporting made more consistent
• Ported source code to Linux. Code should also be portable to other UNIX-type operating systems as well.
• Cleaned up the code for portability and maintainability.
• Added conditionals (IF, NOT, ELSE, /IF).
• Added block macros (BLOCK, /BLOCK).
• Added response files.
• Initial release. Many features unimplemented.
