[Devil-linux-software] GNU Bash 4.0 has been released [freshmeat.net]

[freshmeat.net <no...@fr...>]

Dear freshmeat.net subscriber,

barsnick just announced version 4.0 of GNU Bash on freshmeat.net.

The changes are as follows:

Several new features were implemented. New "autocd", "checkjobs", and "dirspell"
options were added. The new "globstar" option for special handling of '**'' was
introduced. Completion was enhanced. Bash will now retry on failure to spawn
children due to insufficient resources. A compatibility level for behavior as in
older versions was introduced. The "-b" (socket buffer size) and "-T" (number of
threads) options were added to "ulimit". A "command_not_found_handle" shell
function can now be executed when a command is not found. New '&>>' and '|&'
redirection operators were introduced. Many other enhancements, also to
readline, were made, and bugs were fixed.
