Changes for version 1.13
- ENHANCEMENTS
- Moved new_from_usmarc() docs & code up right after new() to be more prominent. Thanks to Chris Biemesderfer for pointing this out.
- Added Chris Biemesderfer's section to the tutorial which discusses using MARC::Record with Net::Z3950.
- Yet another overhaul to MARC::Batch to allow for error trapping. Added the warnings_on() warnings_off() methods to turn on/off warnings on STDERR. Also added strict_on() and strict_off() to change the behavior of next() when an error is encountered. Thanks to Rob Fox of Notre Dame for providing guidance on the type of behavior that is really needed when batch processing.
- Added new tests for the improved handling of errors in MARC::Batch.
- Added new warnings and strict methods to MARC::Doc::Tutorial, also added more use of MARC::Batch instead of using MARC::File directly.
- Improved docs on some functions to explicitly says what gets returned from each function.
