Draft release notes for Elvish 0.20.0.

Notable new features

  • A new os: module providing access to operating system functionality.

  • Maps now have their keys sorted when printed.

  • The peach command now has a &num-workers option (#648).

  • The from-json command now supports integers of arbitrary precision, and outputs them as exact integers rather than inexact floats.

  • A new str:fields command (#1689).

  • The order and compare commands now support a &total option, which allows sorting and comparing values of mixed types.

  • The language server now supports showing the documentation of builtin functions and variables on hover (#1684).

Notable bugfixes

  • has-value $li $v now works correctly when $li is a list and $v is a composite value, like a map or a list.

  • A bug with how the hash code of a map was computed could lead to unexpected results when using maps as map keys; it has now been fixed.

Breaking changes

  • The except keyword in the try command was deprecated since 0.18.0 and is now removed. Use catch instead.
