Xidel

Release Notes: This release added JSONiq support with functions/objects/arrays/literals, improved the command syntax by allowing grouped command line options to apply them only to certain pages/links, changed the input/output formats, added support for exporting variables to the shell, fixed several HTML parsing/serialization bugs, changed the syntax of extended strings (from "..$var;.." to x"..{$var}.."), added more HTTP options (different methods, ports, authorization), and made various other minor changes.

Release Notes: The XPath interpreter has been extended to become a complete XQuery 1 interpreter, thereby some bugs and design mistakes were found and fixed. Two additional functions were added: a "form" function that encodes HTML forms and can easily follow post requests (e.g. -f form(//form[1], "username=...&password=..."), and a "match" function to run the pattern-matching templates from within XPath 2 expressions. The Windows CLI interface was improved (e.g. support for single quotes), and the two online services were merged into one.
