Release notes for Inform v10.1.0

This release was made in August 2022. Bug reports were at this time tracked at Jira, with issue numbers written I7-NNNN, but Mantis issue numbers continued to be used for bugs fixed before the move to Jira, so that this log contains some of each.

Overview

This first release built on the entirely rewritten Inform code-base contains relatively little change in the language specification, but the move to an Inter-based architecture, together with full support for command-line tools, results in many new lower-level features.

Because of the scale of internal disruption since version 9.3, an exhaustive list of small changes is difficult to compile. Past release notes have served as interim documentation on new facilities, but this repository now provides all of that more easily. In particular:

The entire source base has been published as a literate program here.
The compiler is now available as three command-line tools:
- inbuild, the new build manager, has a manual here;
- inform7, the compiler proper, has its manual here;
- inter, a code-generator and linker for Inter code, has a third manual here.
Internally, two major new concepts have arrived:
- Inter, a new intermediate representation used inside the compiler;
- kits, which evolved from the old concept of "template files" and "template code".
The old Standard Rules extension has been divided in two: one half called Basic Inform, which sets up the language itself, and another containing the world model and its actions, still called the Standard Rules. Basic projects can be compiled which do not use the Standard Rules at all, and have no command loop.
The new Inter architecture allows for multiple possible compilation targets, and in particular Inform source text can now be compiled to C instead of I6 code, though only at the command line (the apps do not use C). See the documentation on calling Inform from C.

Inform release notes have historically also included brief release notes on new features and bug fixes in the apps for Windows, MacOS and Linux. But those have their own repositories, and their own release notes, so from now on these core Inform release notes will only mention major app changes.

Inweb version

Inform's one build dependency is the Inweb literate programming system. At the time of this release, the current Inweb version was 7.2.0.

Language changes

As noted, there are surprisingly few changes to the outward-facing language since version 9.3.

The semantic versioning standard, see semver.org, has been adopted throughout the Inform tools, and in particular is what inbuild uses internally. As part of that, extensions can now give any valid Inform semver as their version numbers. See this implementation for exactly what the rules are, but there won't be anything surprising. Past extension version numbers in the form 9 or 9/861022 are automatically converted to 9.0.0 or 9.0.861022 as a semver, but are still legal. So for example this:
```
Version 3.1.4 of Sliced Pie by Marvin Dougal begins here.
```
is now legal in the opening declaration of an extension, and
```
Include version 3.1 of Sliced Pie by Marvin Dougal.
```
is legal as a way to include that extension. The Inform build manager inbuild allows v3.1.4 to be used to meet a request for v3.1 because semver rules say that it ought to be compatible. See the inbuild manual for how to store multiple versions of the same extension side-by-side.
When I6-syntax material is spliced into Inform source text with the Include (- ... -) construction, that material now has to comply with the same rules applying to the source code for kits, also written in an I6 syntax. In both cases, the material in question is no longer being compiled to Z-code or Glulx virtual machine assembly language by inform6; it is now being compiled to Inter intermediate code by a completely different mechanism in inter. Most of the time users will never notice the difference, and in any case Include (- ... -) is an expert-level feature really only intended for complex extensions. However, there are a handful of differences because inter does not quite read the entire range of syntax which inform6 does. Of these, the most significant are:
- Only new-style for loops with colons in the header, for (i=0: i<10: i++), are allowed: not the old style with semicolons, for (i=0; i<10; i++). Changing the semicolons to colons fixes any problems.
- To inform6, local variable names are allowed to coincide with statement names: thus you can have a local called style even though this is also a statement keyword. inter does not allow this and all such words are reserved. The workaround is simply to rename the local in question.
- The indirect(...) function, never really documented but used in a number of old template files, cannot be used with inter. But since indirect(A) is equivalent to A(), which does work, this is easy to avoid.
The Include (- ... -) construction previously provided a way to specify where an inclusion should occur - before or after certain headings or template files. Those syntaxes have all been removed, since they now have no meaning. (They assumed the code would always be literally spliced together into an Inform 6 output file: this is now far from true.) So, for example,
```
Include (- ... -) before "Parser.i6t".
```
now has no meaning; Parser.i6t no longer even exists, and there's no sense of ordering in any case. In practice the code-generator is now much better at avoiding code-ordering issues, and this removes any need for inclusions to be before or after anything, so just deleting those words will usually make everything okay:
```
Include (- ... -) before "Parser.i6t".
```
However, instead of is more problematic. This was typically used by extensions to replace a function inside one of the old template files with a new implementation. That remains possible, but must be written differently:
```
Include (-
	[ BadOldFunction;
		print "This is my deluxe new version!^";
	];
-) replacing "BadOldFunction".
```
In fact this also works for variable and constant names, among other forms of declaration. In each case, though, the idea is to supply a different declaration for the same Inter symbol, which has to be a symbol defined in one of the kits.
Suppose that the main source text creates a command verb PURLOIN: this clashes with the definition of PURLOIN made by CommandParserKit, a testing command intended not to play any part in actual play. In previous versions of Inform, such clashes were annoying enough that authors generally had to avoid those command verbs entirely. But Inform now automatically detects clashes of this sort, and silently changes the debugging command by putting an exclamation mark ! in front. In this example PURLOIN would have the meaning in the source text, and !PURLOIN the meaning in the kit. Note that preference is given to non-meta commands (i.e., those affecting the world model) over testing commands.
In text substitutions, a local variable name is preferred over an adaptive verb; e.g. if index is both the name of a local variable and also the infinite of a verb to index, so that text such as "Consider [index]." is ambiguous - print the value of the variable, or print an inflected form of the verb? - Inform will now give the local variable name priority, on the general grounds that local definitions should override global ones.
Adjective inflection in English has been improved: thus
- big to the comparative bigger and superlative biggest
- long to the quantity length
A new "can't insert what's already inserted rule" has been added to the Standard Rules; which does what it says on the tin.
For phrases which refer to things "in" a list, the preposition "from" can now be used instead. Thus remove X in L and remove X from L are equivalent, as are number of entries in L and number of entries from L, and so on.
Numerous maxima have been removed (for example, the limit on object name length has gone), or raised (for example, the limit on quoted text length was raised to 8K).
The Options.txt file, if used, is now expected to be encoded as UTF-8, not ISO Latin-1. In practice it almost always contains ASCII characters anyway.
When compiling via I6, the STRIP_UNREACHABLE_LABELS and OMIT_UNUSED_ROUTINES features (fairly newly available in the inform6 compiler) are now enabled, and eliminate a great deal of unnecessary code. This can reduce the size of resulting Z-machine story files, where economy matters, by 10-20% (though the saving is all from the code area, not addressable data, which tends to be the more serious constraint).
The extension Glulx Entry Points by Emily Short has been removed from the core distribution because it is unlikely to be helpful for modern Glk users: we hope to provide better facilities in a future release of Inform. In the mean time, the final state of GEP, 10/150101, has been added to the v10 version of the Public Library for people who still need it for older projects.

Bug fixes

Since this release comes after a long period of reconstruction and code review, there's not really any way to itemise every bug fix: many little bugs were fixed which hadn't been seen in the wild, so far as we know.
