Significant changes to the "ore" package are laid out below for each release.

===============================================================================

VERSION 1.1.0

- The package now provides functionality for creating and working with a
  pattern dictionary, and a few predefined patterns are included. This allows
  common regular expressions to be easily named, stored, and integrated into
  larger expressions later. The key new function is ore.dict().
- The new es() function provides expression substitution, a convenient way to
  embed R expressions within strings, and a good example of the package's
  substitution functions in action.
- Printing of "orematch" objects is now much clearer, particularly for long or
  multiline search texts.
- Group matches are now passed to substitution functions, in an attribute.
- The "ore.colour" (or "ore.color") option can now be used to determine whether
  to print in colour, rather than using the crayon package (although the latter
  is still the default).

===============================================================================

VERSION 1.0.7

- Printing "orematch" objects no longer leads to errors. This was due to a
  mismatch in function names between the C code and the calling R code.

===============================================================================

VERSION 1.0.6

- All of the core functions have now switched to primarily C implementations,
  providing substantial performance gains. Minor changes in the handling of
  text encodings have occurred alongside this.
- The limit of 128 matches per string has been removed, due to more
  sophisticated memory management.
- The arguments to ore.subst() have been reordered slightly, to avoid
  inadvertent partial matching when using a substitution function.

===============================================================================

VERSION 1.0.5

- Calculation of match offsets within the C code have been made much more
  efficient.

===============================================================================

VERSION 1.0.4

- Default methods have been added for matches() and groups(), which return NA.
- The "rex" test is now skipped if that package is not available.
- Various low-level warnings/errors from UBSAN have been addressed.

===============================================================================

VERSION 1.0.3

- Almost all of the work of ore.search() is now done in C code rather than R,
  for performance. In testing, ore is now appreciably faster than base R for
  simple searches, when the regex is precompiled. Optimisation of other
  functions will follow in later releases.
- The package no longer requires any specified minimum version of R (although
  it has not been tested on old releases).

===============================================================================

VERSION 1.0.2

- A bug in the ore.subst() function that could produce low-level errors or
  segmentation faults has been fixed.

===============================================================================

VERSION 1.0.1

- Tests should no longer fail in locales which do not use a UTF-8 encoding.
- Documentation tweaks.

===============================================================================

VERSION 1.0.0

- First public release.
