^L

^L
Version 1.4.10

^L
Version 1.4.8
  * Fixed bug for operator* which refused to multiply expression with zero

^L
Version 1.4.6
  * Added string data type
  * Added "exponent" option to set a fixed exponent for printing floats
  * Added vmin and vmax functions
^L
Version 1.4.5
  * Reworked eqraw formatting completely

  * Minor changes for iMath 2.0.0

  * Rebuilt for libginac2
^L
Version 1.4.3

  * Output file cleaning with option cleancomments
  * Controlling debug output with option debug
  * Switching between \tg and \tan with option tan_is_tg
  * Unicode support
^L
Version 1.4.2
  * Minor changes
^L
Version 1.4.1
  * Minor changes
  * Changed class Unit to use a factory for creating Unit objects
^L
Version 1.4.0
  * Split code into libeqc and the eqc program
^L
Version 1.3.1
  * Removed most globals to make linking as a shared library easier
  * Added support for symbolic integrals
  * Upgraded to use libginac1.5
^L
Version 1.3.0
  * Added support for matrices
^L
Version 1.2.1
  * Upgrade to use libginac1.4 and libcln5         
^L
Version 1.2.0
  *  Minor bug fixes.
  * Any equations that do not have a user-defined label are not
    considered any more for finding values, except if they are a direct
    assignment to a symbol.
  * Added keywords \valwith, quantitywith, numvalwith and unitswith.
  * Some beautification for the LaTeX printing routine output.
  * Added simplification type gather-sqrt to combine single
    square roots into one root symbol.
  * Added option eqsplit and eqsplittext to split a
    long equation at a given operator.
  * Added option vecautosize to automatically size a vector
    (if the step count is given as 0).
  * Switched to using pkg-config instead of AM_PATH_GINAC, as
    required by ginac >= 1.3.7
^L
Version 1.1.0
  * Minor bug squashes
  * Added keywords ceil and \floor.
  * In equations, i is now recognized as the imaginary unit (square root of -1).
  * Sorted out some autoconf/automake problems and updated the documentation. 
    Cross-compiling to Windows now works with the configure/make commands (see that
    section for details).
  * \eqsolve now handles problems with denominators not equal to one.
  *  Added command-line parsing of options for unix version (see eqc --help)
  * Combined all option keywords into the common syntax \eqcoptions {'key' = 'val'}
  * Automatic aligning of equations (formerly eqautoalign) is now always on. It can be
    overriden by specifying a certain alignment type, e.g. \eq[eqalign=none]{...}.
^L
Version 1.0.0
  * First production release

  * Vectors can now be created with the syntax begin:end:step.
  * Port to gcc3.3.
  * Added wildcard function wild().
  * Made differentiation of functions work and print better.
  * Added keyword \diff to create derivatives. They can be evaluated (that
    is, the derivative can be explicitly calculated) by \eqsimpf{...}{diff}.
  * Added factorial function '!'.
  * Added the sum function \sum. It can be explicitly calculated by
    \eqsimpf{...}{diff}
  * Added keyword \eqevalp to evaluate functions given in parameter form.
  * Added keyword \eqwrite to save equations to a file and reuse them in another
    document.
  * Added taylor series creation of an expression with \tseries.
  * Optimized the value finding code for faster execution. 
  * Added the AM_PATH_GINAC macro to configure.in.in. This needs a patch
      to ginac.m4 on my system (see section Compilation and Installation)
  * Cross-compiled EQC to windows (see section Compilation and Installation)
  * Added Digits = 12 globally to aleviate problems of expressions
    evaluating to things like x^(0.99999999999999995)
^L
Version 0.9.0
  *  Updated and enhanced release
  
  *  Removed bug which did not print muls inside muls and adds inside
     adds.
  *  Removed automatic expansion and normalization after divisions,
      this must be done manually now using \eqsimpf.
  *  Changed \preferred_units to \preferredunits for LaTeX conformity. 
  *  Introduced dummy macros in eqc.sty to enable the raw tex file to
     be passed through LaTeX without generating too many errors. This
     allows the use of preview-latex in emacs, for example.
  *  Added keyword \eqfunc to apply a function to both sides of the
     equation.
  *  Added simplification type unsafe.  
  *  Added keyword \printoptions, this now replaces \autoalign.
     \raw and \eqc are now printing options eqraw and eqnoraw.
  *  Trigonometric functions now evaluate automatically if possible
      (for example, \cos(\pi) becomes 0).
  *  Made equation a subclass of GiNaC::relational and expression of
     GiNaC::ex, which allows a great deal of simplifications in the
     grammar.  
  *  Removed bug which prevented \val[\degree]{...} from working
     correctly.  
  *  Removed bug which prevented substitutions of user-defined
     functions from working correctly.  
  *  Changed the func::eval() routine so that it takes advantage of the
     simplification rules defined for GiNaC's hard-coded functions,
     e.g. \tan\arctan{x} = x.
^L
Version 0.8.0

* Updated and enhanced release
        
* Added keywords \aligneq, \autoalign, \noautoalign and \dumpeq
* The amsmath keywords \tfrac and \dfrac are now recognized (but
  not printed in eqc output)
* Implemented keyword nesting (e.g., \eqsubst{z = x^2}{\eqadd{x-y = 4}{y}}, 
  which would result in z = (4+y)^2)
* Merged the equation and the file parser to simplify the code.
* Implemented operators +, -, *, / and ^ for equations (e.g. \eqrev{"prev" + 3y}).
* Enabled operators +, -, * and / between two equations (e.g. 
  \eqrev{"prev" + "eq:other"} ).
* Added simplification type collect_common.
* Added keywords \denom and \numer.
* Added keyword \eqsolve
^L
Version 0.7

* First Debian release
