<p>This is a slightly more verbose version of the new features
mentioned in the CHANGELOG, specifically for new features and for
users familiar with older versions of the documentation who want
only a quick update to the docs without reading the entire set
of documentation again from scratch.</p>
<p>This list is NOT a comprehensive list of everything. Specifically,
minor one-line changes, or bug fixes, are not mentioned here.</p>
<p>Most importantly, changes that might have broken previously working
scripts are not always signposted here. To be sure, you should read
the change log in the main github repository, which is repeated in the
release announcements that are made in various places with each
release.</p>

<p>There were numerous optimizations applied to the source code that most end
users will not see directly. Users should however see a performance boost.
Notable modifications were to the regular expressions engine used to parse
script files, optimization of internal string operations, better caching of
suffix information, and migrating to a dual stack cpu instead of a single stack
with hidden offsets.</p>
<p>File scope was also modified so that each file properly defines a scope. This
means that local variables declared in script files called from other scripts
are no longer treated as part of the global scope. It also means that script
parameters are local to the file itself and will not overwrite global variables.</p>
<p>Work also began to include identifier information within opcodes themselves
rather than as a pushed string literal to be evaluated separately. This should
help with execution time and reduce the number of opcode calls within the kOS
virtual machine.</p>
