Version 1.2, 2021-06-05

* Changed semantics of the \ escape.

Backslash serves as escape character only in two cases: when it
is followed by a sigil or by another backslash character.

In particular, \ looses its special meaning in a $(...) verbatim block.

* New preprocessor statement: $$sigil

The $$sigil statement changes the sigil to the character supplied as
its argument.

* New preprocessor statement: $$verbatim

Any block of text between $$verbatim and $$end is reproduced
unchanged.  This is a block analogue of the inline $(...) statement.

* Preprocessor statements are affected by the -S option.

Changing sigil with the -S option affects preprocessor statements
as well.  E.g. if you run `xenv -S@', then `$$set' becomes `@@set',
and so on.

* New option: -v

Prints program version and license terms.


Version 1.1, 2021-02-11

New option -S allows the user to select the sigil (indirection
operator) to use instead of '$'.
