History

VersionDescription
6.0.0
  • end can no longer be followed by an inline instruction without , or ; separator (as in if %t, a=1; end b=2).
  • end can now close a function block instead of endfunction (that still should be prefered).
  • end is now protected: Assignments like end=1 are no longer possible.
