• Fix error and warning messages relative to dependency management to enclose dependency specification in single quotes to clearly distinguish specification from each other.
• Skip output of module loading message if module is already loaded.
• Doc: add demonstration material played at SC19 to promote the new features of Modules.
• Contrib: add playdemo script to play recorded demonstration cast.
• Doc: add a web anchor to each modulefile Tcl command, module sub-command and module environment variable documentation.
• Install: update RPM spec file to enable build on el8.
• Doc: fix RST syntax for bullet lists in design docs. (fix issue #306)
• In case module avail query does not match a directory but only its contained elements (for instance module av mod/7 matches mod/7.1 and mod/7.2 but not mod/), fix query processing to correctly return latest or default element in case --latest or --default flags are set.
• In case a module avail query performed in a no-indepth mode with --latest or --default flags either enabled or disabled, fix query processing to return directory elements if they are part of result.
• When a module avail query performed in no-indepth mode targets a virtual module, fix result to filter-out the directory holding the virtual module from result.
• Fix module avail --default queries when modulefile default version does not match query: select latest version from modulefiles matching query unless implicit_default configuration is disabled in which case no default version is returned.
• Improve highlighting of module avail and whatis search result by coloring module names matching search query expressed with the advanced version specifiers. name@1,3 or name@1:3 queries now highlight name/1 and name/3 strings found in search result.
• Contrib: add the mlprof script which wraps modulecmd.tcl to collect profiling information on its execution.
• Contrib: adapt mb script to profile modulecmd.tcl run tests rather bench them when profile argument is passed to the script.
• Improve overall performances of module names and versions comparison by introducing optimized procedures and caching in memory module search results.
