1 Summary of important user-visible changes for miscellaneous 1.1.0:
2 -------------------------------------------------------------------
5 * the function `waitbar' has been renamed `text_waitbar'. Octave core has
6 implemented a Matlab compatible `waitbar' which is imcompatible with the
7 old miscellaneous `waitbar'. If you use the `waitbar' function from the
8 miscellaneous package you have 3 options:
9 1. replace all `waitbar' calls by `text_waitbar';
10 2. fix your `waitbar' calls for the new API as per octave core. Note
11 that `waitbar' is graphical tool only;
12 3. use an old version of the miscellaneous package or modify the source
13 to keep shadowing the octave core `waitbar'.
