See the end for copying conditions. Please send PSPP bug reports to bug-gnu-pspp@gnu.org. + +Changes from 0.8.2 to 0.8.3: -Changes after 0.8.0: + * REGRESSION now recognises /STATISTICS=CI(x) which causes confidence + intervals for the coefficients to be printed. + +Changes from 0.8.1 to 0.8.2: + + * Charts are now rendered with colours from the Tango palette instead + of fully saturated primaries. + + * Support for new system file variants: + + - PSPP can now read and write ZCOMPRESSED system files, which + compress data much more effectively than older "compressed" + files. (The older format is still supported.) + + - PSPP can now decrypt encrypted system files, using the new + pspp-convert utility. The encrypted system file format is + unacceptably insecure, so to discourage its use PSPP and PSPPIRE + do not directly read or write this format. + + * 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 supports comma-separated value files as output format. + pspp-convert can also decrypt encrypted system 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.
