1- rare bug in gadd (PADIC + PADIC) which caused one of the arguments
to be overwritten
2- typos in refcard
3- galois.c still couldn't compile on the HP (_INCLUDE_POSIX_SOURCE)
4- introduced in 2.0.2: item 14 used gexpo incorrectly (bnfinit sometimes
did not give units it could have computed)
5- replaced INFINITY by pariINFINITY in rootpol.c (cancels Warning on OS/2)
6- on OS/2, target ../gp-$dft in o.xxx/Makefile could not be built
(extraneous $exe_suff)
7- command line switches so that one can enter them with or without white
space (new function read_arg in gp.c)

12- b=10; for(a=1,b, b=2) exited immediately, whereas the upper bound is
supposed to be evaluated only once
13- reorganized the error recovery system (initially because errpile could
cause SEGV on Linux systems)

Changed:
1- Reorganized Makefile.SH: extraction twice as fast
2- pari.menu and pariemacs.txt rewritten, pari.el updated
3- expanded the man gp.1 to mention command line switches
4- the implied input from non-interactive input command (like extern and
read) does not go into the GP history (%x) anymore (it never went into
readline's). The final output (value of last expression evaluated) of
course still does!
5- updated chapter 5 of the User's Manual (removed obsolete information)
Added:
1- better settings for handling the Meta key under readline in
examples/Inputrc
YU 2- support for shared libraries under FreeBSD
3- colors under Emacs

5- overloaded the "." (member) operator to concatenate as strings if LHS is
a string
6- .gprc accepts some limited preprocessing directive (#if READL and
#if EMACS (and #ifnot as well)). Updated lib/gprc.default to reflect the
changes
Removed:
1- some unused, undocumented functions (allocatemem(), checksqid())
made static some other (op_ReIm)

4- test mode did not prevent all prompt expansion (==> bug in make test)
5- gphelp stopped abruptly when meeting a cross-referencing macro
6- zetainit now aborts cleanly when disc. too big (caused memory fault)
7- exceedingly rare bug in the printing of real numbers (missing decimals)
8- too early rounding in polroots which in rare cases made GP think some
error had happened
9- text overflowed the manual pages (and tutorial) on non-A4 paper
10- polred incorrectly assumed that nf arguments were totally real (in a non
critical part: that just led to some unnecessary computations)
11- polred(f,2) could try to overwrite universal integer gzero
12- check if we are using GNU as or GNU ld in Configure
13- empty -R argument to $CC when building GP without graphics (==> link
failed)
14- bnfinit acts sensibly when fundamental units are too large (before:
"overflow in R*R")
15- cleaned up buch2.c (removed ideallllredpart1, removed gerepile in
class_group_generators(), not_given now called from getfu)
16- nfgaloisconj(...,2) was unusable (tried an illegal multiplication)
17- is_totally_split was very inefficient (==> nfgaloisconj was very slow)
18- some unimportant typos (gexpo) in polgalois
19- compiling without readline gave a Warning in gp.c (already_hist)
20- some make programs don't like $< (suppressed from doc/Makefile)
21- ellap sometimes assumed wrongly that coeffs of the curve were integers
22- flag 0 and 1 in ellap had been mixed up
23- print an extra \n before an error message if last output did not
include it
24- component(any non recursive type) gave a SEGV
25- suminf / prodinf / prodeuler assumed they treated a real expression
26- lindep / algep had problems with numbers having a rational component
27- last significant digits of bessel* and hyperu were wrong (now only the
last one is)
28- expi now returns a long as documented (expi(gzero) returned 0 on 64-bit
machines!)
29- g++ could not compile libpari.a (casts missing, extraneous extern "C",
faulty inline, etc.)
30- cleaned up the enums in gp.h
31- incorrect target veryclean in doc/Makefile
Changed:
1- '_' is now valid in GP identifiers
2- removed subsections from table of contents. pages in the manual are now
numbered consecutively
3- gexpo now accepts exact 0 arguments (return -HIGHEXPOBIT)

4- parts of lib/gprc.default
5- the second argument of subgrouplist is now optional
Removed:
1- buggy label/goto functions
2- (now unused) error messages: labeler, gexpoer2
3- _ as shorthand for conj()
4- (useless, undocumented) function gnormalize
5- some files in the lib directory (functions, gp)
Added:
1- some files in the lib directory (README, pari.xbm, xgp)
==============================================================================
Done for version 2.0.1.alpha (released 29/11/1997):
Fixed:
1- multiple factors forgotten when factoring univariate pols over Z
2- extraneous modifications of the random seed (period of random
generator was ridiculously small for some buchxxx functions). Change
the bench results (in a non essential way)
3- bad terminal size determination
4- aliases incorrectly killed (possible SEGV)
5- incrementing/decrementing array elements with the (valid) syntax
v[i]++ / v[i]-- caused a weird error message
6- subgrouplist() could end up by a SEGV on Linux systems
LG 7- on HP-UX, flag -Aa not taken into account in Configure (caused it to
fail on has_TIOCGWINSZ.c)
LG 8- added a missing #define _INCLUDE_POSIX_SOURCE in galois.c
(7 & 8 independently fixed by OV)
GN 9- the script examples/cl.gp called vecconcat() instead of concat()
GN 10- make install-sta rebuilt gp-sta unnecessarily
GN 11- many, many typos in the tutorial
12- tu / fu applied incorrectly to a bnfclassunit
13- bnfclassunit did not output a valid object (matrix whose elements were
rows instead of columns)
14- conversion bug from t_QUAD to t_REAL/t_COMPLEX
15- off-by-1 error in the history recovery after an error
16- in fprintferr() (debug messages), embedded %Z did not work correctly
17- rnfequation over Q yielded a SEGV
18- string() in compatibility mode corrupted the stack
19- it is now safe to have colours in prompt and input line under readline
20- default colours restored upon exiting
21- default colors in lib/gprc.default used 0 instead of -1 for "no color"
22- psi and lngamma could give wrong results when the argument was not real
23- the make test-graphic bench was missing a newline
24- Pol(break) gave a SEGV
25- x=1; Pol(1) gave a stupid error message
IZ 26- tutorial.tex was unnecessarily rebuilt
27- typos in ggcd (cases nobody will ever access: gcd of a non-reduced
LG fraction with an intmod, etc.)
LG 28- incorrect handling of integrals of vectors
29- gcd of polynomials with non-exact coeffs gave stupid results (they are
still often wrong, since the mathematical notion is rather imprecise)
30- typos in rnfkummer (incorrect flag handling)
31- typo in idealpowprime (negative exponent gave wrong denominator)
32- multiplication t_COMPLEX x t_COMPLEX used 4 mult. instead of 3
33- some modular functions (j, f, f2) rewritten to take advantage of new eta
function (trueta)
Changed:
1- ?? (gphelp) starts in detex mode (-d) from a console window. tmp files
now placed according to the $TMPDIR environment variable (in /tmp by
default)
2- /usr/local/lib/pari/data is a better place for the Galois resolvents
(which are not included yet in the standard distribution)
3- The example for prompt in gprc.default to discuss escape sequences under
readline
4- Configure now starts by searching the toplevel directory for a temporary
readline installation
5- The output of default(colors) was confusing. It is a string now
6- third argument of polinterpolate can be arbitrary and is now optional
("x" by default) (it had to be numeric)
7- directory configure renamed config, some of the Makefiles in there as
well (to avoid confusion)
8- the low_stack macro to facilitate dynamic stack expansion
9- if, back to GP main loop, the last command was a print1(), output an
extra newline. This way the prompt is guaranteed to be anchored on
column 1 (suppresses a readline display bug as well)
10- Due to 9, pari.el now supposes the prompt starts in col. 1
11- Better handling of version numbers (LG)
12- decodefactor() renamed to factorback()
Removed:
1- The (unused, undocumented) Malloc_Procs functions and macros
2- The (now unused) error message numvarer
3- some (useless, undocumented) targets in the top Makefile
4- (useless, undocumented) function polgcd()

1- This file !
2- new flags -ch, -cb, -cu (colour support) to gphelp (see its header)
IZ 3- OS/2 (+ enough tools...) supported by Configure
4- file examples/Inputrc (example of .inputrc for readline)
5- Weber f1 function implemented
6- Karatsuba multiplication t_REAL x t_REAL (development code, not used by
PARI yet). Test it with install if you wish
