  • Brace expression parsing is now done with a BraceExp word part
  • Improve comment alignment in Printer via a post-process step
  • Add support for the ~ bitwise negation operator
  • Record the use of deprecated tokens in the syntax tree
• interp
  • Improve the module API as "handlers", to reduce confusion with Go modules
  • Split LookPath out of ExecHandler to allow custom behavior
  • Run now returns nil instead of ShellExitStatus(0)
  • OpenDevImpls is removed; see ExampleOpenHandler for an alternative
• expand
  • Redesign Variable to reduce allocations
  • Add support for more escape sequences
  • Make Config a bit more powerful via func fields
  • Rework brace expansion via the new BraceExp word part

v2.6.3

Highlights:

• expand
  • Support globs with path prefixes and suffixes, like ./foo/*/
