  - No significant bugs have been found since the last release, but several
    minor issues have been fixed.  Vertical alignment has been improved for
    lists of call args which are not contained within parens (next item).
  - Vertical alignment of function calls without parens has been improved with
    the goal of making vertical alignment essentially the same with or
    without parens around the call args.  Some examples:
    [#] OLD
    mkTextConfig $c, $x, $y, -anchor => 'se', $color;
    mkTextConfig $c, $x + 30, $y, -anchor => 's',  $color;
    mkTextConfig $c, $x + 60, $y, -anchor => 'sw', $color;
    mkTextConfig $c, $x, $y + 30, -anchor => 'e', $color;
    [#] NEW
    mkTextConfig $c, $x,      $y,      -anchor => 'se', $color;
    mkTextConfig $c, $x + 30, $y,      -anchor => 's',  $color;
    mkTextConfig $c, $x + 60, $y,      -anchor => 'sw', $color;
    mkTextConfig $c, $x,      $y + 30, -anchor => 'e',  $color;

    is register($obj), $obj, "object returned by register";
    is scalar keys %$ob_reg, 1, "object registry nonempty";
    is id_2obj($id), $obj, "registered object retrieved";
    [#] NEW
    is id_2obj($id),         undef, "unregistered object not retrieved";
    is scalar keys %$ob_reg, 0,     "object registry empty";
    is register($obj),       $obj,  "object returned by register";
    is scalar keys %$ob_reg, 1,     "object registry nonempty";
    is id_2obj($id),         $obj,  "registered object retrieved";
    This will cause some changes in alignment, hopefully for the better,
    particularly in test code which often uses numerous parenless function
    calls with functions like 'ok', 'is', 'is_deeply', ....
  - Two new parameters were added to control the block types to which the
  - bl (--opening-brace-on-new-line) flag applies.  The new parameters are
  - block-left-list=s, or -bll=s, and --block-left-exclusion-list=s,
    or -blxl=s.  Previously the -bl flag was 'hardwired' to apply to
    nearly all blocks. The default values of the new parameters
    retain the the old default behavior but allow it to be changed.
  - The default behavior of the -bli (-brace-left-and-indent) flag has changed
    slightly.  Previously, if you set -bli, then the -bl flag would also
    automatically be set.  Consequently, block types which were not included
    in the default list for -bli would get -bl formatting.  This is no longer done,
    and these two styles are now controlled independently.  The manual describes
    the controls.  If you want to recover the exact previous default behavior of
    the -bli then add the -bl flag.
  - A partial fix was made for issue for git #74. The -lp formatting style was
    being lost when a one-line anonymous sub was followed by a closing brace.
  - Fixed issue git #73, in which the -nfpva flag was not working correctly.
    Some unwanted vertical alignments of spaced function perens
    were being made.
  - Updated the man pages to clarify the flags -valign and -novalign
    for turning vertical alignment on and off (issue git #72).
    Added parameters -vc -vsc -vbc for separately turning off vertical
    alignment of code, side comments and block comments.
  - Fixed issue git #68, where a blank line following a closing code-skipping
    comment, '#>>V', could be lost.
  - This version runs 10 to 15 percent faster on large files than the
    previous release due to optimizations made with the help of NYTProf.
  - This version of perltidy was stress-tested for many cpu hours with
    random input parameters. No instabilities,  internal fault checks,
    undefined variable references or other irregularities were seen.
  - Numerous minor fixes have been made, mostly very rare formatting instabilities
    found in random testing. An effort has been made to minimize changes to
    existing formatting that these fixes produce, but occasional changes
    may occur. Many of these updates are listed at:
    https://github.com/perltidy/perltidy/blob/master/local-docs/BugLog.pod

  [#]# 2021 07 17
  - This release is being made mainly because of the next item, in which an
    error message about an uninitialized value error message could be produced
    in certain cases when format-skipping is used.  The error message was
    annoying but harmless to formatting.
  - Fixed an undefined variable message, see git #67. When a format skipping
    comment '#<<' is placed before the first line of code in a script, a
    message 'Use of uninitialized value $Ktoken_vars in numeric ...' can
    occur.
  - A warning will no longer be given if a script has an opening code-skipping
    comment '#<<V' which is not terminated with a closing comment '#>>V'. This
    makes code-skipping and format-skipping behave in a similar way: an
    opening comment without a corresponding closing comment will cause
    the rest of a file to be skipped.  If there is a question about which lines
    are skipped, a .LOG file can be produced with the -g flag and it will have
    this information.
  - Removed the limit on -ci=n when -xci is set, reference: rt #136415.
    This update removes a limit in the previous two versions in which the
    value of -ci=n was limited to the value of -i=n when -xci was set.
    This limit had been placed to avoid some formatting instabilities,
    but recent coding improvements allow the limit to be removed.
  - The -wn and -bbxx=n flags were not working together correctly. This has
    been fixed.
  - This version may produce occasional differences in formatting compared to
    previous versions, mainly for lines which are near the specified line
    length limit.  This is due to ongoing efforts to eliminate edge cases of
    formatting instability.

  [#]# 2021 06 25
  - This release adds several new requested parameters.  No significant bugs have
    been found since the last release, but a number of minor problems have been
    corrected.
  - Added a new option '--code-skipping', requested in git #65, in which code
    between comment lines '#<<V' and '#>>V' is passed verbatim to the output
    stream without error checking.  It is simmilar to --format-skipping
    but there is no error checking of the skipped code. This can be useful for
    skipping past code which employs an extended syntax.
  - Added a new option for closing paren placement, -vtc=3, requested in rt #136417.
  - Added flag -atnl, --add-terminal-newline, to help issue git #58.
    This flag tells perltidy to terminate the last line of the output stream
    with a newline character, regardless of whether or not the input stream
    was terminated with a newline character.  This is the default.
    If this flag is negated, with -natnl, then perltidy will add a terminal
    newline character to the the output stream only if the input
    stream is terminated with a newline.
  - Some nested structures formatted with the -lp indentation option may have
    some changes in indentation.  This is due to updates which were made to
    prevent formatting instability when line lengths are limited by the maximum line
    length. Most scripts will not be affected. If this causes unwanted formatting
    changes, try increasing the --maximum-line-length by a few characters.

  [#]# 2021 04 02
  - This release fixes several non-critical bugs which have been found since the last
    release.  An effort has been made to keep existing formatting unchanged.
  - Fixed issue git #57 regarding uninitialized warning flag.
  - Added experimental flag -lpxl=s requested in issue git #56 to provide some
    control over which containers get -lp indentation.
  - Fixed issue git #55 regarding lack of coordination of the --break-before-xxx
    flags and the --line-up-parens flag.
  - Fixed issue git #54 regarding irregular application of the --break-before-paren
    and similar --break-before-xxx flags, in which lists without commas were not
    being formatted according to these flags.
  - Fixed issue git #53. A flag was added to turn off alignment of spaced function
    parens.  If the --space-function-paren, -sfp flag is set, a side-effect is that the
    spaced function parens may get vertically aligned.  This can be undesirable,
    so a new parameter '--function-paren-vertical-alignment', or '-fpva', has been
    added to turn this vertical alignment off. The default is '-fpva', so that
    existing formatting is not changed.  Use '-nfpva' to turn off unwanted
    vertical alignment.  To illustrate the possibilities:
    [#] perltidy [default]
    myfun( $aaa, $b, $cc );
    mylongfun( $a, $b, $c );
    [#] perltidy -sfp
    myfun     ( $aaa, $b, $cc );
    mylongfun ( $a, $b, $c );
    [#] perltidy -sfp -nfpva
    myfun ( $aaa, $b, $cc );
    mylongfun ( $a, $b, $c );
  - Fixed issue git #51, a closing qw bare paren was not being outdented when
    the -nodelete-old-newlines flag was set.
  - Fixed numerous edge cases involving unusual parameter combinations which
    could cause alternating output states.  Most scripts will not be
    changed by these fixes.

  [#]# 2021 01 11
  - Fixed issue git #49, -se breaks warnings exit status behavior.
    The exit status flag was not always being set when the -se flag was set.
  - Some improvements have been made in the method for aligning side comments.
    One of the problems that was fixed is that there was a tendency for side comment
    placement to drift to the right in long scripts.  Programs with side comments
    may have a few changes.
  - Some improvements have been made in formatting qw quoted lists.  This
    fixes issue git #51, in which closing qw pattern delimiters not always
    following the settings specified by the --closing-token-indentation=n settings.
    Now qw closing delimiters ')', '}' and ']' follow these flags, and the
    delimiter '>' follows the flag for ')'.  Other qw pattern delimiters remain
    indented as the are now.  This change will cause some small formatting changes
    in some existing programs.
  - Another change involving qw lists is that they get full indentation,
    rather than just continuation indentation, if
    (1) the closing delimiter is one of } ) ] > and is on a separate line,
    (2) the opening delimiter  (i.e. 'qw{' ) is also on a separate line, and
    (3) the -xci flag (--extended-continuation-indentation) is set.
    This improves formatting when qw lists are contained in other lists. For example,
    [#] OLD: perltidy
    foreach $color (
    qw(
    AntiqueWhite3 Bisque1 Bisque2 Bisque3 Bisque4
    SlateBlue3 RoyalBlue1 SteelBlue2 DeepSkyBlue3
    ),
    qw(
    LightBlue1 DarkSlateGray1 Aquamarine2 DarkSeaGreen2
    SeaGreen1 Yellow1 IndianRed1 IndianRed2 Tan1 Tan4
    )
    )
    [#] NEW, perltidy -xci
    foreach $color (
    qw(
    AntiqueWhite3 Bisque1 Bisque2 Bisque3 Bisque4
    SlateBlue3 RoyalBlue1 SteelBlue2 DeepSkyBlue3
    ),
    qw(
    LightBlue1 DarkSlateGray1 Aquamarine2 DarkSeaGreen2
    SeaGreen1 Yellow1 IndianRed1 IndianRed2 Tan1 Tan4
    )
    )
  - Some minor improvements have been made to the rules for formatting
    some edge vertical alignment cases, usually involving two dissimilar lines.

  [#]# 2020 12 02
  - This release is being made primarily to make available a several new formatting
    parameters, in particular -xci, -kbb=s, -kba=s, and -wnxl=s. No significant
    bugs have been found since the previous release, but numerous minor issues have
    been found and fixed as listed below.
  - This version is about 20% faster than the previous version due to optimizations
    made with the help of Devel::NYTProf.
  - Added flag -wnxl=s, --weld-nested-exclusion-list=s, to provide control which containers
    are welded with the --weld-nested-containers parameter.  This is related to issue git #45.
  - Merged pull request git #46 which fixes the docs regarding the -fse flag.
  - Fixed issue git #45, -vtc=n flag was ignored when -wn was set.
  - implement request RT #133649, delete-old-newlines selectively. Two parameters,
  - kbb=s or --keep-old-breakpoints-before=s, and
  - kba=s or --keep-old-breakpoints-after=s
    were added to request that old breakpoints be kept before or after
    selected token types.  For example, -kbb='=>' means that newlines before
    fat commas should be kept.
  - Fix git #44, fix exit status for assert-tidy/untidy.  The exit status was
    always 0 for --assert-tidy if the user had turned off all error messages with
    the -quiet flag.  This has been fixed.
  - Add flag -maxfs=n, --maximum-file-size-mb=n.  This parameter is provided to
    avoid causing system problems by accidentally attempting to format an
    extremely large data file. The default is n=10.  The command to increase
    the limit to 20 MB for example would be  -mfs=20.  This only applies to
    files specified by filename on the command line.
  - Skip formatting if there are too many indentation level errors.  This is
    controlled with -maxle=n, --maximum-level-errors=n.  This means that if
    the ending indentation differs from the starting indentation by more than
    n levels, the file will be output verbatim. The default is n=1.
    To skip this check, set n=-1 or set n to a large number.
  - A related new flag, --maximum-unexpected-errors=n, or -maxue=n, is available
    but is off by default.
  - Add flag -xci, --extended-continuation-indentation, regarding issue git #28
    This flag causes continuation indentation to "extend" deeper into structures.
    Since this is a fairly new flag, the default is -nxci to avoid disturbing
    existing formatting.  BUT you will probably see some improved formatting
    in complex data structures by setting this flag if you currently use -ci=n
    and -i=n with the same value of 'n' (as is the case if you use -pbp,
  - -perl-best-practices, where n=4).
  - Fix issue git #42, clarify how --break-at-old-logical-breakpoints works.
    The man page was updated to note that it does not cause all logical breakpoints
    to be replicated in the output file.
  - Fix issue git #41, typo in manual regarding -fsb.
  - Fix issue git #40: when using the -bli option, a closing brace followed by
    a semicolon was not being indented.  This applies to braces which require
    semicolons, such as a 'do' block.
  - Added 'state' as a keyword.
  - A better test for convergence has been added. When iterations are requested,
    the new test will stop after the first pass if no changes in line break
    locations are made.  Previously, file checksums were used and required at least two
    passes to verify convergence unless no formatting changes were made.  With the new test,
    only a single pass is needed when formatting changes are limited to adjustments of
    indentation and whitespace on the lines of code.  Extensive testing has been made to
    verify the correctness of the new convergence test.
  - Line breaks are now automatically placed after 'use overload' to
    improve formatting when there are numerous overloaded operators.  For
    example
    use overload
    '+' => sub {
    ...
  - A number of minor problems with parsing signatures and prototypes have
    been corrected, particularly multi-line signatures. Some signatures
    had previously been parsed as if they were prototypes, which meant the
    normal spacing rules were not applied.  For example
    OLD:
    sub echo ($message= 'Hello World!' ) {
    ...;
    }
    NEW:
    sub echo ( $message = 'Hello World!' ) {
    ...;
    }
  - Numerous minor issues that the average user would not encounter were found
    and fixed. They can be seen in the more complete list of updates at

  [#]# 2020 10 01
  - Robustness of perltidy has been significantly improved.  Updating is recommended. Continual
    automated testing runs began about 1 Sep 2020 and numerous issues have been found and fixed.
    Many involve references to uninitialized variables when perltidy is fed random text and random
    control parameters. A complete list is given in the file
    https://github.com/perltidy/perltidy/blob/master/local-docs/BugLog.pod
  - Added the token '->' to the list of alignment tokens, as suggested in git
    [#39], so that it can be vertically aligned if a space is placed before them with -wls='->'.
  - Added parameters -bbhb=n (--break-before-hash-brace=n), -bbsb=n (--break-before-square-bracket=n),
    and -bbp=n (--break-before-paren=n) suggested in git #38.  These provide control over the
    opening container token of a multiple-line list.  Related new parameters -bbhbi=n, -bbsbi=n, -bbpi=n
    control indentation of these tokens.
  - Added keyword 'isa'.

  [#]# 2020 09 07
  - Fixed bug git #37, an error when the combination -scbb -csc was used.
    It occurs in perltidy versions 20200110, 20200619, and 20200822.  What happens is
    that when two consecutive lines with isolated closing braces had new side
    comments generated by the -csc parameter, a separating newline was missing.
    The resulting script will not then run, but worse, if it is reformatted with
    the same parameters then closing side comments could be overwritten and data
    lost.
    This problem was found during automated random testing.  The parameter
  - scbb is rarely used, which is probably why this has not been reported.  Please
    upgrade your version.
  - Added parameter --non-indenting-braces, or -nib, which prevents
    code from indenting one level if it follows an opening brace marked
    with a special side comment, '#<<<'.  For example,
    { #<<<   a closure to contain lexical vars
    my $var;  # this line does not indent
    }
    [#] this line cannot 'see' $var;
    This is on by default.  If your code happens to have some
    opening braces followed by '#<<<', and you
    don't want this, you can use -nnib to deactivate it.
  - Side comment locations reset at a line ending in a level 0 open
    block, such as when a new multi-line sub begins.  This is intended to
    help keep side comments from drifting to far to the right.

  - Fix RT #133166, encoding not set for -st.  Also reported as RT #133171
    and git #35.
    This is a significant bug in version 20200616 which can corrupt data if
    perltidy is run as a filter on encoded text.
  * *Please upgrade**
  - Fix issue RT #133161, perltidy -html was not working on pod
  - Fix issue git #33, allow control of space after '->'
  - Vertical alignment has been improved. Numerous minor issues have
    been fixed.
  - Formatting with the -lp option is improved.
  - Fixed issue git #32, misparse of bare 'ref' in ternary
  - When --assert-tidy is used and triggers an error, the first difference
    between input and output files is shown in the error output. This is
    a partial response to issue git #30.

  [#]# 2020 06 19
  - Added support for Switch::Plain syntax, issue git #31.
  - Fixed minor problem where trailing 'unless' clauses were not
    getting vertically aligned.
  - Added a parameter --logical-padding or -lop to allow logical padding
    to be turned off.  Requested by git #29. This flag is on by default.
    The man pages have examples.
  - Added a parameter -kpit=n to control spaces inside of parens following
    certain keywords, requested in git#26. This flag is off by default.
  - Added fix for git#25, improve vertical alignment for long lists with
    varying numbers of items per line.
  - calls to the module Perl::Tidy can now capture any output produced
    by a debug flag or one of the 'tee' flags through the new 'debugfile' and
    'teefile' call parameters.  These output streams are rarely used but
    they are now treated the same as any 'logfile' stream.
  - add option --break-at-old-semicolon-breakpoints', -bos, requested
    in RT#131644.  This flag will keep lines beginning with a semicolon.
  - Added --use-unicode-gcstring to control use of Unicode::GCString for
    evaluating character widths of encoded data.  The default is
    not to use this (--nouse-unicode-gcstring). If this flag is set,
    perltidy will look for Unicode::GCString and, if found, will use it
    to evaluate character display widths.  This can improve displayed
    vertical alignment for files with wide characters.  It is a nice
    feature but it is off by default to avoid conflicting formatting
    when there are multiple developers.  Perltidy installation does not
    require Unicode::GCString, so users wanting to use this feature need
    set this flag and also to install Unicode::GCString separately.
  - Added --character-encoding=guess or -guess to have perltidy guess
    if a file (or other input stream) is encoded as -utf8 or some
    other single-byte encoding. This is useful when processing a mixture
    of file types, such as utf8 and latin-1.
    Please Note: The default encoding has been set to be 'guess'
    instead of 'none'. This seems like the best default, since
    it allows perltidy work properly with both
    utf8 files and older latin-1 files.  The guess mode uses Encode::Guess,
    which is included in standard perl distributions, and only tries to
    guess if a file is utf8 or not, never any other encoding.  If the guess is
    utf8, and if the file successfully decodes as utf8, then it the encoding
    is assumed to be utf8.  Otherwise, no encoding is assumed.
    If you do not want to use this new default guess mode, or have a
    problem with it, you can set --character-encoding=none (the previous
    default) or --character-encoding=utf8 (if you deal with utf8 files).
  - Specific encodings of input files other than utf8 may now be given, for
    example --character-encoding=euc-jp.
  - Fix for git#22, Preserve function signature on a single line. An
    unwanted line break was being introduced when a closing signature paren
    followed a closing do brace.
  - Fix RT#132059, the -dac parameter was not working and caused an error exit
  - When -utf8 is used, any error output is encoded as utf8
  - Fix for git#19, adjust line break around an 'xor'
  - Fix for git#18, added warning for missing comma before unknown bare word.

  [#]# 2020 01 10
  - This release adds a flag to control the feature RT#130394 (allow short nested blocks)
    introduced in the previous release.  Unfortunately that feature breaks
    RPerl installations, so a control flag has been introduced and that feature is now
    off by default.  The flag is:
  - -one-line-block-nesting=n, or -olbn=n, where n is an integer as follows:
  - olbn=0 break nested one-line blocks into multiple lines [new DEFAULT]
  - olbn=1 stable; keep existing nested-one line blocks intact [previous DEFAULT]
    For example, consider this input line:
    foreach (@list) { if ($_ eq $asked_for) { last } ++$found }
    The new default behavior (-olbn=0), and behavior prior to version 20191203, is to break it into multiple lines:
    foreach (@list) {
    if ( $_ eq $asked_for ) { last }
    ++$found;
    }
    To keep nested one-line blocks such as this on a single line you can add the parameter -olbn=1.
  - Fixed issue RT#131288: parse error for un-prototyped constant function without parenthesized
    call parameters followed by ternary.
  - Fixed issue RT#131360, installation documentation.  Added a note that the binary
    'perltidy' comes with the Perl::Tidy module. They can both normally be installed with
    'cpanm Perl::Tidy'

  - Fixed issue RT#131115: -bli option not working correctly.
    Closing braces were not indented in some cases due to a glitch
    introduced in version 20181120.
  - Fixed issue RT#130394: Allow short nested blocks.  Given the following
    $factorial = sub { reduce { $a * $b } 1 .. 11 };
    Previous versions would always break the sub block because it
    contains another block (the reduce block).  The fix keeps
    short one-line blocks such as this intact.
  - Implement issue RT#130640: Allow different subroutine keywords.
    Added a flag --sub-alias-list=s or -sal=s, where s is a string with
    one or more aliases for 'sub', separated by spaces or commas.
    For example,
    perltidy -sal='method fun'
    will cause the perltidy to treat the words 'method' and 'fun' to be
    treated the same as if they were 'sub'.
  - Added flag --space-prototype-paren=i, or -spp=i, to control spacing
    before the opening paren of a prototype, where i=0, 1, or 2:
    i=0 no space
    i=1 follow input [current and default]
    i=2 always space
    Previously, perltidy always followed the input.
    For example, given the following input
    sub usage();
    The result will be:
    sub usage();    # i=0 [no space]
    sub usage();    # i=1 [default; follows input]
    sub usage ();   # i=2 [space]
  - Fixed issue git#16, minor vertical alignment issue.
  - Fixed issue git#10, minor conflict of -wn and -ce
  - Improved some vertical alignments involving two lines.

  [#]# 2019 09 15
  - fixed issue RT#130344: false warning "operator in print statement"
    for "use lib".
  - fixed issue RT#130304: standard error output should include filename.
    When perltidy error messages are directed to the standard error output
    with -se or --standard-error-output, the message lines now have a prefix
    'filename:' for clarification in case multiple files
    are processed, where 'filename' is the name of the input file.  If
    input is from the standard input the displayed filename is '<stdin>',
    and if it is from a data structure then displayed filename
    is '<source_stream>'.
  - implement issue RT#130425: check mode.  A new flag '--assert-tidy'
    will cause an error message if the output script is not identical to
    the input script. For completeness, the opposite flag '--assert-untidy'
    has also been added.  The next item, RT#130297, insures that the script
    will exit with a non-zero exit flag if the assertion fails.
  - fixed issue RT#130297; the perltidy script now exits with a nonzero exit
    status if it wrote to the standard error output. Prevously only fatal
    run errors produced a non-zero exit flag. Now, even non-fatal messages
    requested with the -w flag will cause a non-zero exit flag.  The exit
    flag now has these values:
    0 = no errors
    1 = perltidy could not run to completion due to errors
    2 = perltidy ran to completion with error messages
  - added warning message for RT#130008, which warns of conflicting input
    parameters -iob and -bom or -boc.
  - fixed RT#129850; concerning a space between a closing block brace and
    opening bracket or brace, as occurs before the '[' in this line:
    my @addunix = map { File::Spec::Unix->catfile( @ROOT, @$_ ) } ['b'];
    Formerly, any space was removed. Now it is optional, and the output will
    follow the input.
  - fixed issue git#13, needless trailing whitespace in error message
  - fixed issue git#9: if the -ce (--cuddled-else) flag is used,
    do not try to form new one line blocks for a block type
    specified with -cbl, particularly map, sort, grep
  - iteration speedup for unchanged code.  Previously, when iterations were
    requested, at least two formatting passes were made. Now just a single pass
    is made if the formatted code is identical to the input code.
  - some improved vertical alignments

  [#]# 2019 06 01
  - rt #128477: Prevent inconsistent owner/group and setuid/setgid bits.
    In the -b (--backup-and-modify-in-place) mode, an attempt is made to set ownership
    of the output file equal to the input file, if they differ.
    In all cases, if the final output file ownership differs from input file, any setuid/setgid bits are cleared.
  - Added option -bom  (--break-at-old-method-breakpoints) by
    merrillymeredith which preserves breakpoints of method chains. Modified to also handle a cuddled call style.
  - Merged patch to fix Windows EOL translation error with UTF-8 written by
    Ron Ivy. This update prevents automatic conversion to 'DOS' CRLF line
    endings.  Also, Windows system testing at the appveyor site is working again.
  - RT #128280, added flag --one-line-block-semicolons=n (-olbs=n)
    to control semicolons in one-line blocks.  The values of n are:
    n=0 means no semicolons termininating simple one-line blocks
    n=1 means stable; do not change from input file [DEFAULT and current]
    n=2 means always add semicolons in one-line blocks
    The current behavior corresponds to the default n=1.
  - RT #128216, Minor update to prevent inserting unwanted blank line at
    indentation level change.  This should not change existing scripts.
  - RT #81852: Improved indentation when quoted word (qw) lists are
    nested within other containers using the --weld-nested (-wn) flag.
    The example given previously (below) is now closer to what it would
    be with a simple list instead of qw:
    [#] perltidy -wn
    use_all_ok( qw{
    PPI
    PPI::Tokenizer
    PPI::Lexer
    PPI::Dumper
    PPI::Find
    PPI::Normal
    PPI::Util
    PPI::Cache
    } );
  - RT#12764, introduced new feature allowing placement of blanks around
    sequences of selected keywords. This can be activated with the -kgb*
    series of parameters described in the manual.
  - Rewrote vertical algnment module.  It is better at finding
    patterns in complex code. For example,
  OLD:
    /^-std$/ && do { $std       = 1;     next; };
    /^--$/   && do { @link_args = @argv; last; };
    /^-I(.*)/ && do { $path = $1 || shift @argv; next; };
  NEW:
    /^-std$/  && do { $std       = 1;                 next; };
    /^--$/    && do { @link_args = @argv;             last; };
    /^-I(.*)/ && do { $path      = $1 || shift @argv; next; };
  - Add repository URLs to META files
  - RT #118553, "leave only one newline at end of file". This option was not
    added because of undesirable side effects, but a new filter script
    was added which can do this, "examples/delete_ending_blank_lines.pl".

  - RT #124469, #124494, perltidy often making empty files.  The previous had
    an index error causing it to fail, particularly in version 5.18 of Perl.

  - RT #79947, cuddled-else generalization. A new flag -cb provides
    'cuddled-else' type formatting for an arbitrary type of block chain. The
    default is try-catch-finally, but this can be modified with the
    parameter -cbl.
  - Fixed RT #124298: add space after ! operator without breaking !! secret
    operator
  - RT #123749: numerous minor improvements to the -wn flag were made.
  - Fixed a problem with convergence tests in which iterations were stopping
    prematurely.
  - Here doc targets for <<~ type here-docs may now have leading whitespace.
  - Fixed RT #124354. The '-indent-only' flag was not working correctly in the
    previous release. A bug in version 20180101 caused extra blank lines
    to be output.
  - Issue RT #124114. Some improvements were made in vertical alignment
    involving 'fat commas'.

- updated to 20180101
  see /usr/share/doc/packages/perl-Perl-Tidy/CHANGES
    2018 01 01
  - Added new flag -wn (--weld-nested-containers) which addresses these issues:
    RT #123749: Problem with promises;
    RT #119970: opening token stacking strange behavior;
    RT #81853: Can't stack block braces
    This option causes closely nested pairs of opening and closing containers
    to be "welded" together and essentially be formatted as a single unit,
    with just one level of indentation.
    Since this is a new flag it is set to be "off" by default but it has given
    excellent results in testing.
    EXAMPLE 1, multiple blocks, default formatting:
    do {
    {
    next if $x == $y;    # do something here
    }
    } until $x++ > $z;
    perltidy -wn
    do { {
    next if $x == $y;
    } } until $x++ > $z;
    EXAMPLE 2, three levels of wrapped function calls, default formatting:
    p(
    em(
    conjug(
    translate( param('verb') ), param('tense'),
    param('person')
    )
    )
    );
    [#] perltidy -wn
    p( em( conjug(
    translate( param('verb') ),
    param('tense'), param('person')
    ) ) );
    [#] EXAMPLE 3, chained method calls, default formatting:
    get('http://mojolicious.org')->then(
    sub {
    my $mojo = shift;
    say $mojo->res->code;
    return get('http://metacpan.org');
    }
    )->then(
    sub {
    my $cpan = shift;
    say $cpan->res->code;
    }
    )->catch(
    sub {
    my $err = shift;
    warn "Something went wrong: $err";
    }
    )->wait;
    [#] perltidy -wn
    get('http://mojolicious.org')->then( sub {
    my $mojo = shift;
    say $mojo->res->code;
    return get('http://metacpan.org');
    } )->then( sub {
    my $cpan = shift;
    say $cpan->res->code;
    } )->catch( sub {
    my $err = shift;
    warn "Something went wrong: $err";
    } )->wait;
  - Fixed RT #114359: Missparsing of "print $x ** 0.5;
  - Deactivated the --check-syntax flag for better security.  It will be
    ignored if set.
  - Corrected minimum perl version from 5.004 to 5.008 based on perlver
    report.  The change is required for coding involving wide characters.
  - For certain severe errors, the source file will be copied directly to the
    output without formatting. These include ending in a quote, ending in a
    here doc, and encountering an unidentified character.

  - RT #123749, partial fix.  "Continuation indentation" is removed from lines
    with leading closing parens which are part of a call chain.
    For example, the call to pack() is is now outdented to the starting
    indentation in the following experession:
    [#] OLD
    $mw->Button(
  - text    => "New Document",
  - command => \&new_document
    )->pack(
  - side   => 'bottom',
  - anchor => 'e'
    );
    [#] NEW
    $mw->Button(
  - text    => "New Document",
  - command => \&new_document
    )->pack(
  - side   => 'bottom',
  - anchor => 'e'
    );
    This modification improves readability of complex expressions, especially
    when the user uses the same value for continuation indentation (-ci=n) and
    normal indentation (-i=n).  Perltidy was already programmed to
    do this but a minor bug was preventing it.
  - RT #123774, added flag to control space between a backslash and a single or
    double quote, requested by Robert Rothenberg.  The issue is that lines like
    $str1=\"string1";
    $str2=\'string2';
    confuse syntax highlighters unless a space is left between the backslash and
    the quote.
    The new flag to control this is -sbq=n (--space-backslash-quote=n),
    where n=0 means no space, n=1 means follow existing code, n=2 means always
    space.  The default is n=1, meaning that a space will be retained if there
    is one in the source code.
  - Fixed RT #123492, support added for indented here doc operator <<~ added
    in v5.26.  Thanks to Chris Weyl for the report.
  - Fixed docs; --closing-side-comment-list-string should have been just
  - -closing-side-comment-list.  Thanks to F.Li.
  - Added patch RT #122030] Perl::Tidy sometimes does not call binmode.
    Thanks to Irilis Aelae.
  - Fixed RT #121959, PERLTIDY doesn't honor the 'three dot' notation for
    locating a config file using environment variables.  Thanks to John
    Wittkowski.
  - Minor improvements to formatting, in which some additional vertical
    aligmnemt is done. Thanks to Keith Neargarder.
  - RT #119588.  Vertical alignment is no longer done for // operator.

  - Fixed debian #862667: failure to check for perltidy.ERR deletion can lead
    to overwriting abritrary files by symlink attack. Perltidy was continuing
    to write files after an unlink failure.  Thanks to Don Armstrong
    for a patch.
  - Fixed RT #116344, perltidy fails on certain anonymous hash references:
    in the following code snippet the '?' was misparsed as a pattern
    delimiter rather than a ternary operator.
    return ref {} ? 1 : 0;
  - Fixed RT #113792: misparsing of a fat comma (=>) right after
    the __END__ or __DATA__ tokens.  These keywords were getting
    incorrectly quoted by the following => operator.
  - Fixed RT #118558. Custom Getopt::Long configuration breaks parsing
    of perltidyrc.  Perltidy was resetting the users configuration too soon.
  - Fixed RT #119140, failure to parse double diamond operator.  Code to
    handle this new operator has been added.
  - Fixed RT #120968.  Fixed problem where -enc=utf8 didn't work
    with --backup-and-modify-in-place. Thanks to Heinz Knutzen for this patch.
  - Fixed minor formatting issue where one-line blocks for subs with signatures
    were unnecesarily broken
  - RT #32905, patch to fix utf-8 error when output was STDOUT.
  - RT #79947, improved spacing of try/catch/finally blocks. Thanks to qsimpleq
    for a patch.
  - Fixed #114909, Anonymous subs with signatures and prototypes misparsed as
    broken ternaries, in which a statement such as this was not being parsed
    correctly:
    return sub ( $fh, $out ) : prototype(*$) { ... }
  - Implemented RT #113689, option to introduces spaces after an opening block
    brace and before a closing block brace. Four new optional controls are
    added. The first two define the minimum number of blank lines to be
    inserted
  - blao=i or --blank-lines-after-opening-block=i
  - blbc=i or --blank-lines-before-closing-block=i
    where i is an integer, the number of lines (the default is 0).
    The second two define the types of blocks to which the first two apply
  - blaol=s or --blank-lines-after-opening-block-list=s
  - blbcl=s or --blank-lines-before-closing-block-list=s
    where s is a string of possible block keywords (default is just 'sub',
    meaning a named subroutine).
    For more information please see the documentation.
  - The method for specifying block types for certain input parameters has
    been generalized to distinguish between normal named subroutines and
    anonymous subs.  The keyword for normal subroutines remains 'sub', and
    the new keyword for anonymous subs is 'asub'.
  - Minor documentation changes. The BUGS sections now have a link
    to CPAN where most open bugs and issues can be reviewed and bug reports
    can be submitted.  The information in the AUTHOR and CREDITS sections of
    the man pages have been removed from the man pages to streamline the
    documentation. This information is still in the source code.

  - RT #112534. Corrected a minor problem in which an unwanted newline
    was placed before the closing brace of an anonymous sub with
    a signature, if it was in a list.  Thanks to Dmytro Zagashev.
  - Corrected a minor problem in which occasional extra indentation was
    given to the closing brace of an anonymous sub in a list when the -lp
    parameter was set.
    2016 03 01
  - RT #104427. Added support for signatures.
  - RT #111512.  Changed global warning flag $^W = 1 to use warnings;
    Thanks to Dmytro Zagashev.
  - RT #110297, added support for new regexp modifier /n
    Thanks to Dmytro Zagashev.
  - RT #111519.  The -io (--indent-only) and -dac (--delete-all-comments)
    can now both be used in one pass. Thanks to Dmitry Veltishev.
  - Patch to avoid error message with 'catch' used by TryCatch, as in
    catch($err){
    [#] do something
    }
    Thanks to Nick Tonkin.
  - RT #32905, UTF-8 coding is now more robust. Thanks to qsimpleq
    and Dmytro for patches.
  - RT #106885. Added string bitwise operators ^. &. |. ~. ^.= &.= |.=
  - Fixed RT #107832 and #106492, lack of vertical alignment of two lines
    when -boc flag (break at old commas) is set.  This bug was
    inadvertantly introduced in previous bug fix RT #98902.
  - Some common extensions to Perl syntax are handled better.
    In particular, the following snippet is now foratted cleanly:
    method deposit( Num $amount) {
    $self->balance( $self->balance + $amount );
    }
    A new flag -xs (--extended-syntax) was added to enable this, and the default
    is to use -xs.
    In previous versions, and now only when -nxs is set, this snippet of code
    generates the following error message:
    "syntax error at ') {', didn't see one of: case elsif for foreach given if switch unless until when while"

  - Fixed RT# 105484, Invalid warning about 'else' in 'switch' statement.  The
    warning happened if a 'case' statement did not use parens.
  - Fixed RT# 101547, misparse of // caused error message.  Also..
  - Fixed RT# 102371, misparse of // caused unwated space in //=
  - Fixed RT# 100871, "silent failure of HTML Output on Windows".
    Changed calls to tempfile() from:
    my ( $fh_tmp, $tmpfile ) = tempfile();
    to have the full path name:
    my ( $fh_tmp, $tmpfile ) = File::Temp::tempfile()
    because of problems in the Windows version reported by Dean Pearce.
  - Fixed RT# 99514, calling the perltidy module multiple times with
    a .perltidyrc file containing the parameter --output-line-ending
    caused a crash.  This was a glitch in the memoization logic.
  - Fixed RT#99961, multiple lines inside a cast block caused unwanted
    continuation indentation.
  - RT# 32905, broken handling of UTF-8 strings.
    A new flag -utf8 causes perltidy assume UTF-8 encoding for input and
    output of an io stream.  Thanks to Sebastian Podjasek for a patch.
    This feature may not work correctly in older versions of Perl.
    It worked in a linux version 5.10.1 but not in a Windows version 5.8.3 (but
    otherwise perltidy ran correctly).
  - Warning files now report perltidy VERSION. Suggested by John Karr.
  - Fixed long flag --nostack-closing-tokens (-nsct has always worked though).
    This was due to a typo.  This also fixed --nostack-opening-tokens to
    behave correctly.  Thanks to Rob Dixon.

- updated to 20140711
  - Fixed RT #94902: abbreviation parsing in .perltidyrc files was not
    working for multi-line abbreviations.  Thanks to Eric Fung for
    supplying a patch.
  - Fixed RT #95708, misparsing of a hash when the first key was a perl
    keyword, causing a semicolon to be incorrectly added.
  - Fixed RT #94338 for-loop in a parenthesized block-map.  A code block within
    parentheses of a map, sort, or grep function was being mistokenized.  In
    rare cases this could produce in an incorrect error message.  The fix will
    produce some minor formatting changes.  Thanks to Daniel Trizen
    discovering and documenting this.
  - Fixed RT #94354, excess indentation for stacked tokens.  Thanks to
    Colin Williams for supplying a patch.
  - Added support for experimental postfix dereferencing notation introduced in
    perl 5.20. RT #96021.
  - Updated documentation to clarify the behavior of the -io flag
    in response to RT #95709.  You can add -noll or -l=0 to prevent
    long comments from being outdented when -io is used.
  - Added a check to prevent a problem reported in RT #81866, where large
    scripts which had been compressed to a single line could not be formatted
    because of a check for VERSION for MakeMaker. The workaround was to
    use -nvpl, but this shouldn't be necessary now.
  - Fixed RT #96101; Closing brace of anonymous sub in a list was being
    indented.  For example, the closing brace of the anonymous sub below
    will now be lined up with the word 'callback'.  This problem
    occured if there was no comma after the closing brace of the anonymous sub.
    This update may cause minor changes to formatting of code with lists
    of anonymous subs, especially TK code.

- updated to 20130922
  - Fixed RT #88020. --converge was not working with wide characters.
  - Fixed RT #78156. package NAMESPACE VERSION syntax not accepted.
  - First attempt to fix RT #88588.  INDEX END tag change in pod2html breaks
    perltidy -html. I put in a patch which should work but I don't yet have
    a way of testing it.

- updated to 20130806
  - Fixed RT #87107, spelling
  - Fixed RT #87502, incorrect of parsing of smartmatch before hash brace
  - Added feature request RT #87330, trim whitespace after POD.
    The flag -trp (--trim-pod) will trim trailing whitespace from lines of POD

- updated to 20130717
  - Fixed RT #86929, #86930, missing lhs of assignment.
  - Fixed RT #84922, moved pod from Tidy.pm into Tidy.pod

- updated to 20121207
  - The flag -cab=n or --comma-arrow-breakpoints=n has been generalized
    to give better control over breaking open short containers.  The
    possible values are now:
    n=0 break at all commas after =>
    n=1 stable: break at all commas after => if container is open,
    EXCEPT FOR one-line containers
    n=2 break at all commas after =>, BUT try to form the maximum
    maximum one-line container lengths
    n=3 do not treat commas after => specially at all
    n=4 break everything: like n=0 but also break a short container with
    a => not followed by a comma
    n=5 stable: like n=1 but ALSO break at open one-line containers (default)
    New values n=4 and n=5 have been added to allow short blocks to be
    broken open.  The new default is n=5, stable.  It should more closely
    follow the breaks in the input file, and previously formatted code
    should remain unchanged.  If this causes problems use -cab=1 to recover
    the former behavior.  Thanks to Tony Maszeroski for the suggestion.
    To illustrate the need for the new options, if perltidy is given
    the following code, then the old default (-cab=1) was to close up
    the 'index' container even if it was open in the source.  The new
    default (-cab=5) will keep it open if it was open in the source.
    our $fancypkg = {
    'ALL' => {
    'index' => {
    'key' => 'value',
    },
    'alpine' => {
    'one'   => '+',
    'two'   => '+',
    'three' => '+',
    },
    }
    };
  - New debug flag --memoize (-mem).  This version contains a
    patch supplied by Jonathan Swartz which can significantly speed up
    repeated calls to Perl::Tidy::perltidy in a single process by caching
    the result of parsing the formatting parameters.  A factor of up to 10
    speedup was achieved for masontidy (https://metacpan.org/module/masontidy).
    The memoization patch is on by default but can be deactivated for
    testing with -nmem (or --no-memoize).

- update to 20101217
  - added new flag -it=n or --iterations=n
  - A configuration file pathname begins with three dots, e.g.
    ".../.perltidyrc", indicates that the file should be searched for starting
    in the current directory and working upwards.
  - Added flag --notidy which disables all formatting and causes the input to be
    copied unchanged.
  - Added prefilters and postfilters in the call to the Tidy.pm module.
  - The starting indentation level of sections of code entabbed with -et=n
