Par 1.53.0 released 2020-Mar-14
Fixed the following bugs:
An unintended bad interaction between <quote> and <repeat>.
The specification was inconsistent. Although it said that
the lines inserted by the <quote> feature were vacant,
the <repeat> feature could interpret the quote character
of inserted lines as a repeat character, in which case
the lines were not vacant (according to the definition),
and more quote/repeat characters would be inserted to
extend the line to the full width, which no one would ever
want. The definition of "bodiless line" is revised so that
lines inserted by the <quote> feature are excluded from
consideration by the <repeat> feature.
A printf format string mismatch (ptrdiff_t vs. %d), reported by
Quentin Barnes (qbarnes at gmail.com).
protoMakefile's clean target removed par rather than par$E,
reported by George V. Reilly (george at reilly.org).
Added the following features:
Locale support for single-byte character sets.
The previous verson, 1.52, attempted to do this in one line
of code (setlocale()), but it's not that simple. Versions
before 1.52 gave no thought to character sets other than
US-ASCII and did not handle them entirely correctly.
Calling setlocale() in version 1.52 corrected some flaws but
not all, and created one new flaw. This version and the
previous two all have the same character handling in the
"C" locale and when processing US-ASCII text; differences
arise only when processing non-US-ASCII text in another
locale. In versions before 1.52 the implementation assumed
that "uppercase letter" means only the 26 characters A-Z
and that "lowercase letter" means only the 26 characters
a-z, and the specification assumed that every letter is
either upper case or lower case. These assumptions hold
for US-ASCII, but not for most other character sets;
therefore versions before 1.52 did not really support
non-US-ASCII text. Version 1.52, by calling setlocale(),
relaxed the three assumptions in the implementation but
not the assumption in the specification, and inadvertantly
caused the implementation to deviate from the specification
by converting all space characters to spaces rather than
converting only the specified white characters, which is not
necessarily what you want (for example, you probably don't
want no-break space converted to space, but some locales
on some platforms have been known to classify no-break
space as white-space, like FreeBSD did in 2004). This
version fixes the specification by introducing the concept
of "neither-case letter" and redefining "alphanumeric
character" to include it, and fixes the implementation to
convert only the white characters to spaces. It also makes
the white characters configurable so that the version 1.52
space-conversion behavior can be restored if desired (W=_S).
Note that Par still assumes constant display width per byte,
which is not true for UTF-8 nor ISO-2022-*, but is true for
most single-byte charsets and for EUC-* text without the
single-shift-in/out codes.
The W option, for configuring the set of white characters.
The Z option, for configuring the set of terminal characters.
The _@ escape sequence (neither-case letter) in charset syntax.
The _S escape sequence (any space) in charset syntax.
Added _@ and apostrophe to the set of body characters in PARINIT.
Add #includes for whatever interfaces are used rather than depending
on included files to #include other files.
In protoMakefile introduced CPPFLAGS and CFLAGS (default empty) into
the default definition of CC.
Added a test-par script and a test target in protoMakefile.
Fixed a misspelling (preceed => precede) in par.doc and par.1.
Changed the top-of-file comment convention so that every release
won't need to touch every file (this is the last time).
Updated the author contact information.
Clarified the license and added the MIT License as an alternative.
Adopted a modern version number format, with minor and patch numbers
as dot-separated integers rather than adjacent single digits.

developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.

- New, optional Makefile variable HOMEPAGE, specifies a URL for
the home page of the software if it has one.
- The value of HOMEPAGE is used to add a link from the
README.html files.
- pkglint updated to know about it. The "correct" location for
HOMEPAGE in the Makefile is after MAINTAINER, in that same
section.
