- There is now a ``-W`` option for sphinx-build that turns warnings
into errors.
-
-
-Release 0.5.2 (Mar 24, 2009)
-============================
-
-* Properly escape ``|`` in LaTeX output.
-
-* #71: If a decoding error occurs in source files, print a
- warning and replace the characters by "?".
-
-* Fix a problem in the HTML search if the index takes too long
- to load.
-
-* Don't output system messages while resolving, because they
- would stay in the doctrees even if keep_warnings is false.
-
-* #82: Determine the correct path for dependencies noted by
- docutils. This fixes behavior where a source with dependent
- files was always reported as changed.
-
-* Recognize toctree directives that are not on section toplevel,
- but within block items, such as tables.
-
-* Use a new RFC base URL, since rfc.org seems down.
-
-* Fix a crash in the todolist directive when no todo items are
- defined.
-
-* Don't call LaTeX or dvipng over and over again if it was not
- found once, and use text-only latex as a substitute in that case.
-
-* Fix problems with footnotes in the LaTeX output.
-
-* Prevent double hyphens becoming en-dashes in literal code in
- the LaTeX output.
-
-* Open literalinclude files in universal newline mode to allow
- arbitrary newline conventions.
-
-* Actually make the ``-Q`` option work.
-
-* #86: Fix explicit document titles in toctrees.
-
-* #81: Write environment and search index in a manner that is safe
- from exceptions that occur during dumping.
-
-* #80: Fix UnicodeErrors when a locale is set with setlocale().
-
-
-Release 0.5.1 (Dec 15, 2008)
-============================
-
-* #67: Output warnings about failed doctests in the doctest extension
- even when running in quiet mode.
-
-* #72: In pngmath, make it possible to give a full path to LaTeX and
- dvipng on Windows. For that to work, the ``pngmath_latex`` and
- ``pngmath_dvipng`` options are no longer split into command and
- additional arguments; use ``pngmath_latex_args`` and
- ``pngmath_dvipng_args`` to give additional arguments.
-
-* Don't crash on failing doctests with non-ASCII characters.
-
-* Don't crash on writing status messages and warnings containing
- unencodable characters.
-
-* Warn if a doctest extension block doesn't contain any code.
-
-* Fix the handling of ``:param:`` and ``:type:`` doc fields when
- they contain markup (especially cross-referencing roles).
-
-* #65: Fix storage of depth information for PNGs generated by the
- pngmath extension.
-
-* Fix autodoc crash when automethod is used outside a class context.
-
-* #68: Fix LaTeX writer output for images with specified height.
-
-* #60: Fix wrong generated image path when including images in sources
- in subdirectories.
-
-* Fix the JavaScript search when html_copy_source is off.
-
-* Fix an indentation problem in autodoc when documenting classes
- with the option ``autoclass_content = "both"`` set.
-
-* Don't crash on empty index entries, only emit a warning.
-
-* Fix a typo in the search JavaScript code, leading to unusable
- search function in some setups.
-
-
-Release 0.5 (Nov 23, 2008) -- Birthday release!
-===============================================
-
-New features added
-------------------
-
-* Markup features:
-
- - Citations are now global: all citation defined in any file can be
- referenced from any file. Citations are collected in a bibliography
- for LaTeX output.
-
- - Footnotes are now properly handled in the LaTeX builder: they appear
- at the location of the footnote reference in text, not at the end of
- a section. Thanks to Andrew McNamara for the initial patch.
-
- - "System Message" warnings are now automatically removed from the
- built documentation, and only written to stderr. If you want the
- old behavior, set the new config value ``keep_warnings`` to ``True``.
-
- - Glossary entries are now automatically added to the index.
-
- - Figures with captions can now be referred to like section titles,
- using the ``:ref:`` role without an explicit link text.
-
- - Added ``cmember`` role for consistency.
-
- - Lists enumerated by letters or roman numerals are now handled like in
- standard reST.
-
- - The ``seealso`` directive can now also be given arguments, as a short
- form.
-
- - You can now document several programs and their options with the
- new ``program`` directive.
-
-* HTML output and templates:
-
- - Incompatible change: The "root" relation link (top left in the
- relbar) now points to the ``master_doc`` by default, no longer to a
- document called "index". The old behavior, while useful in some
- situations, was somewhat unexpected. Override the "rootrellink"
- block in the template to customize where it refers to.
-
- - The JavaScript search now searches for objects before searching in
- the full text.
-
- - TOC tree entries now have CSS classes that make it possible to
- style them depending on their depth.
-
- - Highlighted code blocks now have CSS classes that make it possible
- to style them depending on their language.
-
- - HTML ```` tags via the Docutils :dudir:`meta` directive are now
- supported.
-
- - ``SerializingHTMLBuilder`` was added as new abstract builder that
- can be subclassed to serialize build HTML in a specific format. The
- ``PickleHTMLBuilder`` is a concrete subclass of it that uses pickle
- as serialization implementation.
-
- - ``JSONHTMLBuilder`` was added as another ``SerializingHTMLBuilder``
- subclass that dumps the generated HTML into JSON files for further
- processing.
-
- - The ``rellinks`` block in the layout template is now called
- ``linktags`` to avoid confusion with the relbar links.
-
- - The HTML builders have two additional attributes now that can be
- used to disable the anchor-link creation after headlines and
- definition links.
-
- - Only generate a module index if there are some modules in the
- documentation.
-
-* New and changed config values:
-
- - Added support for internationalization in generated text with the
- ``language`` and ``locale_dirs`` config values. Many thanks to
- language contributors:
-
- * Horst Gutmann -- German
- * Pavel Kosina -- Czech
- * David Larlet -- French
- * Michał Kandulski -- Polish
- * Yasushi Masuda -- Japanese
- * Guillem Borrell -- Spanish
- * Luc Saffre and Peter Bertels -- Dutch
- * Fred Lin -- Traditional Chinese
- * Roger Demetrescu -- Brazilian Portuguese
- * Rok Garbas -- Slovenian
-
- - The new config value ``highlight_language`` set a global default for
- highlighting. When ``'python3'`` is selected, console output blocks
- are recognized like for ``'python'``.
-
- - Exposed Pygments' lexer guessing as a highlight "language" ``guess``.
-
- - The new config value ``latex_elements`` allows to override all LaTeX
- snippets that Sphinx puts into the generated .tex file by default.
-
- - Added ``exclude_dirnames`` config value that can be used to exclude
- e.g. CVS directories from source file search.
-
- - Added ``source_encoding`` config value to select input encoding.
-
-* Extensions:
-
- - The new extensions ``sphinx.ext.jsmath`` and ``sphinx.ext.pngmath``
- provide math support for both HTML and LaTeX builders.
-
- - The new extension ``sphinx.ext.intersphinx`` half-automatically
- creates links to Sphinx documentation of Python objects in other
- projects.
-
- - The new extension ``sphinx.ext.todo`` allows the insertion of
- "To do" directives whose visibility in the output can be toggled.
- It also adds a directive to compile a list of all todo items.
-
- - sphinx.ext.autodoc has a new event ``autodoc-process-signature``
- that allows tuning function signature introspection.
-
- - sphinx.ext.autodoc has a new event ``autodoc-skip-member`` that allows
- tuning which members are included in the generated content.
-
- - Respect ``__all__`` when autodocumenting module members.
-
- - The ``automodule`` directive now supports the ``synopsis``,
- ``deprecated`` and ``platform`` options.
-
-* Extension API:
-
- - ``Sphinx.add_node()`` now takes optional visitor methods for the
- HTML, LaTeX and text translators; this prevents having to manually
- patch the classes.
-
- - Added ``Sphinx.add_javascript()`` that adds scripts to load in the
- default HTML template.
-
- - Added new events: ``source-read``, ``env-updated``,
- ``env-purge-doc``, ``missing-reference``, ``build-finished``.
-
-* Other changes:
-
- - Added a command-line switch ``-Q``: it will suppress warnings.
-
- - Added a command-line switch ``-A``: it can be used to supply
- additional values into the HTML templates.
-
- - Added a command-line switch ``-C``: if it is given, no configuration
- file ``conf.py`` is required.
-
- - Added a distutils command ``build_sphinx``: When Sphinx is installed,
- you can call ``python setup.py build_sphinx`` for projects that have
- Sphinx documentation, which will build the docs and place them in
- the standard distutils build directory.
-
- - In quickstart, if the selected root path already contains a Sphinx
- project, complain and abort.
-
