+Changes from 0.8.1 to 0.8.1.1:
-Changes after 0.8.0:
+ * Charts are now rendered with colours from the Tango palette instead
+ of fully saturated primaries.
+
+ * PSPP can now read and write ZCOMPRESSED system files, a new format
+ variant that compresses data much more effectively than the
+ previous form of compression (which is still supported).
+
+ * Missing values for long string variables are now read from and
+ written to system files in an SPSS-compatible fashion.
+
+ (Earlier versions of PSPP that supported missing values for long
+ string variables wrote them to system files in an SPSS-incompatible
+ way. To fix the problem, read the system file with this version of
+ PSPP and then save a new copy of it.)
+
+ * pspp-convert, a new standalone utility for converting SPSS system
+ and portable files to other formats, is now included. The initial
+ version is only capable of converting to comma-separated value
+ files..
+
+ * Build changes:
+
+ - zlib is now a required dependency. (Previously it was optional.)
+
+Changes from 0.8.0 to 0.8.1:
+
+ * New commands:
+
+ - VARIABLE ROLE.
+
+ * Changes to existing commands:
+
+ - CROSSTABS: The requirement that one expected count must be less than five
+ before Fishers Exact Test will be reported has been removed.
* PSPPIRE graphical user interface improvements:
+ - A new set of icons has been contributed.
+
- Syntax windows now parse syntax in "auto" mode, which in practice
should mean that both "batch" and "interactive" syntax now works,
instead of just "interactive" syntax.
+ - The variable pane of data windows now include a Role column.
+
* Notable bug fixes:
- System files written by IBM SPSS 21 are now read without warnings.
+ - System files written by "VOXCO INTERVIEWER 4.3" are now read
+ without warnings.
+
- PSPPIRE should now more gracefully handle syntax files that contain
errors.
