GitHub #95.
1.023 2021-02-10T06:23:32Z
* A fix for `grep -v` from Ed Avis (#69)
1.022 2021-01-11T06:59:31Z

became much heavier. Strawberry Perl comes with gmake and it's
to find make tools for Windows.
https://github.com/graphviz-perl/Graph/issues/17
* Remove a bit of fluff sticking around after taking out bin/man
* Completed the move from Travis CI to Github Actions
* The uudecode tool now has tests, and with the -o option can
send its output somewhere else, including stdout
* Many programs have converted to three argument open calls, but
many don't have tests beyond compilation. Let me know what breaks.

* Most uses of indirect object notation are gone

1.011_01 2016-08-31T14:25:21Z
* Escape { in regexes in dc and glob. Perl v5.26 will demand this.
1.011 2016-08-30T16:52:26Z
* Back out the Term::UI stuff in bin/patch since that module
isn't core.

1.005 2015-04-17T01:20:12Z
* Don't install at the same location as perl. Make the
user think about where to install them so these tools
don't interfere with the real tools of the same name.
