-Changes in version 1.11:
+Changes in version 1.12:
 
-A race has been fixed in zcmp and zdiff that sometimes made them return 1
-(files differ) instead of 2 (trouble) when a compressor is not found or when
-the wrong format is forced.
+zgrep now also accepts the following options: '-G, --basic-regexp',
+'--label=<label>', '--line-buffered', '-P, --perl-regexp', '--silent',
+'-T, --initial-tab', '-U, --binary', and '-Z, --null'.
+(Reported by Chris Jamboretz and Leah Neukirchen).
 
-In case of error in an argument to a command line option, all tools now show
-the name of the option.
+zupdate now accepts option '-e, --expand-extensions', which makes it expand
+combined file name extensions; tgz -> tar.lz.
 
-In case of error in a numerical argument to a command line option, zcmp
-now shows the name of the option and the range of valid values.
+zupdate now also accepts option '-i, --ignore-errors', which makes it ignore
+non-fatal errors.
 
-Support for the zstd format has been added to all tools. This allows, among
-other things, zupdating zstd files to lzip format for long-term archiving,
-and using zcmp along with the unzcrash tool (from the lziprecover package)
-to test zstd files.
-
-'zdiff --verbose --version' now prints the version of the diff program used
-if it supports the option '--version'.
-
-'zgrep --verbose --version' now prints the version of the grep program used
-if it supports the option '--version'.
-
-It has been documented in the manual how to recompress files with zupdate
-from a read-only file system to another place by first linking the files
-from the destination directory and then compressing the links:
-'ln -s /src/foo.gz . && zupdate foo.gz'
-
-The texinfo category of the manual has been changed from 'Data Compression'
-to 'Compression' to match that of gzip. (Reported by Alfred M. Szmidt).
+All utilities now support compress'd (.Z) files through gzip. For this to
+work, the gzip program used (for example GNU gzip) must be able to
+decompress .Z files.
