Changes for version 3.24_02 - 2015-01-21

  • Dave Mitchell sent a patch to reduce stderr spam during core perl builds. Resolves RT#101493
  • Make perldoc honor the MANPAGER environment variable as documented. Resolves RT#100933
  • Decode command line arguments at UTF-8 data. Resolves RT#9806

Changes for version 3.24_01 - 2014-09-10

  • The 'ToTerm' backend generates terminal escape sequences that the 'less' pager does not display by default. The "-R" option controls this, so pass it in the LESS environment variable to avoid disturbing other pager invocations. Patch by Niko Tyni. Closes RT#98636
  • Unify filehandle opens and encoding into two methods 'open_fh' and 'set_encoding'. Based on a pull request by Koichi KUBO. Closes RT#98019 better than c3fd47f :)
  • Applied PR by Olivier Mengué to 'use parent' instead of 'use base'
