New Wiki Page - Change Logs - By released Versions

[grymmjack]

To help us all keep up with the changes in QB64PE we have created this page:
https://qb64phoenix.com/qb64wiki/index.p...d_Versions
(page also accessible from the Wiki Main page -> Keyword References -> Other section)

For every released version in GitHub, there is a release page which explains what is new. You may have seen this information before. But what you might not know is that @RhoSigma and the rest of the team maintain the wiki each time new things are added, changed, etc. and it can be hard to keep track of everything.

This new page centralizes the change logs in one spot, allowing you to do a full text search in the wiki for the version number vX.y.z which the wiki mentions explicitly when versions are relevant to a change/addition/fix, as well as the GitHub release itself through the version tag, which contains the developers journal of what happened for that release.

Now there is one spot to check for new things.

It might be fun for everyone to go through the list just to see what's new, improved, etc.

For example, @SierraKen didn't realize the SOUND keyword had more waveforms now, and now that he does know he integrated that feature into his new MouseTank game.

Huge thanks to @RhoSigma for maintaining this wiki the way he has which has made this possible - thank you for your service!

yeah!

man the changes are fast and furious to this old dog, it is hard to keep up.

good to know the help is trying to keep up.

I have noticed in Wiki what versions the keywords come into being and/or mods.

I'll +2 that post, any day.

I have a hard time keeping up with new things, too. My dates on Friday nights, for example. Luckily, I have my wife to remind me. So who am I going out with tonight, honey? You're going out with a bang, dear... on the head. Certainly not the bang I was hoping for but I'll take any action I can get at my age.

Very, very usefull!!!
This is the easiest way to find/read through new functions/features!

What I would really like is at the bottom of the list links to the previous/next version
to easier read from old to new or vice versa.

Although I agree, this is not possible as the keyword lists are just dynamic pages generated by the Wiki search, which we can't influence.

Keep it up! I've already been happily making use of some of the recent updates, especially in my 14,000 line program :-)
