-Changes in version 1.11:
+Changes in version 1.12:
-Detection of forbidden combinations of characters in trailing data has
-been improved.
+Lunzip now reports an error if a file name is empty (lunzip -t "").
-Errors are now also checked when closing the input file.
+Option '-o, --output' now behaves like '-c, --stdout', but sending the
+output unconditionally to a file instead of to standard output. See the new
+description of '-o' in the manual. This change is backwards compatible only
+when decompressing from standard input alone. Therefore commands like:
+ lunzip -d -o foo - bar.lz < foo.lz
+must now be split into:
+ lunzip -d -o foo - < foo.lz
+ lunzip -d bar.lz
+or rewritten as:
+ lunzip -d - bar.lz < foo.lz > foo
-Lunzip now compiles on DOS with DJGPP. (Patch from Robert Riebisch).
+Lunzip now does not even open the output file if the input file is a terminal.
-The configure script now accepts appending options to CFLAGS using the
-syntax 'CFLAGS+=OPTIONS'.
+The words 'decompressed' and 'compressed' have been replaced with the
+shorter 'out' and 'in' in the verbose output when decompressing or testing.
-It has been documented in INSTALL the use of
-CFLAGS+='-D __USE_MINGW_ANSI_STDIO' when compiling on MinGW.
+Option '--list' now reports corruption or truncation of the last header in a
+multimenber file specifically instead of showing the generic message "Last
+member in input file is truncated or corrupt."
+
+The commands needed to extract files from a tar.lz archive have been
+documented in the output of '--help' and in the man page.
+
+9 new test files have been added to the testsuite.
