 # Changelog for interval-algebra
 
+## 1.4.0
+
+* Adds the `safeInterval` function to `Core`,
+as a utility for creating intervals from a pair of endpoints.
+* Uses
+[PVP](https://pvp.haskell.org/)-style
+major upper bounds in cabal dependencies as described
+[here](https://cabal.readthedocs.io/en/3.4/cabal-package.html#build-information).
+* Adds the `IntervalDiagram` module which includes functions and types
+for printing diagrams of intervals as text.
+These functions are useful for documentation and examples.
+
 ## 1.3.0
 
 * Adds `NFData` and `Binary` instances for `Interval` and `PairedInterval`

+This function provides the most flexibility in producing interval diagrams.

+     ***  *****  x  
+                  ##
+====================
+
+We can put the axis on the top:
+
+>>> pretty $ parseIntervalDiagram defaultIntervalDiagramOptions [] (Just Top) x [ (l1, []), (l2, []), (l3, []) ]
+====================
+    -               
+     ***  *****  x  
+                  ##
+
+

+
+>>> pretty $ parseIntervalDiagram defaultIntervalDiagramOptions [(5, 'a')] (Just Bottom) x [ (l1, []), (l2, []), (l3, []) ]
+    -               
+     ***  *****  x  
+                  ##
+====================
+     |
+     a
+
+
+We can also annotate each line with labels:
+
+>>> pretty $ parseIntervalDiagram defaultIntervalDiagramOptions [] (Just Bottom) x [ (l1, ["line1"]), (l2, ["line2a", "line2b"]), (l3, ["line3"])  ]
+    -                <- [line1]
+     ***  *****  x   <- [line2a, line2b]
+                  ## <- [line3]
+====================
+
+
+The parser tries to check that the data can be printed.
+For example, the default @'Prettyprinter.LayoutOptions'@ is 80 characters.
+Providing an reference interval wider than 80 characters
+results in an error.
