Changes for version 0.12 - 2011-04-25

  • Best Practical has taken over maintainership of this module
  • Try various spellcheck programs instead of hardcoding the ancient `spell` [rt.cpan.org #56483] (reported by Lars Dɪᴇᴄᴋᴏᴡ, et al)
  • Remove temporary files more aggressively [rt.cpan.org #41586] (reported by Tokuhiro Matsuno)
    • fixed by not creating them at all :) instead we now use IPC::Open3
  • Remove suggestion to use broken `aspell -l` [rt.cpan.org #28967] (reported by David Hand)
  • Add set_pod_file_filter for skipping translations, etc. [rt.cpan.org #63755] (reported by me :))
  • Skip tests in all_pod_files_spelling_ok if there is no working spellchecker
  • Provide a has_working_spellchecker so you can skip your own tests if there's no working spellchecker
  • Switch to Module::Install
  • Rewrite and modernize a lot of the documentation
  • Decruftify code, such as by using Exporter and lexical filehandles
  • Support .plx files (you're welcome Schwern)
