## 0.14.0.0
* Defined package's name using program's name, in **Main.hs**.
* Checked package "**Base**" exports `Data.Tuple.swap`, in **ToolShed.Arbitrary.Array**.
* Relocated **ToolShed.Arbitrary** to **ToolShed.Test.QuickCheck.Arbitrary**.
* Added **ToolShed.Test.ReversibleBoundedEnum**, **ToolShed.Test.ReversibleEnum**, **ToolShed.Test.ReversibleIO**, & **ToolShed.Test.SelfValidate**.
* Amended `ToolShed.System.File.locate` to deal with absolute file-paths.
* Replaced legacy calls to `Data.Map.fold` & `Data.Set.fold`, with more expicit calls to `Data.Map.foldr` & `Data.Set.foldr` from a more recent version of the **containers** package.
* Added instance of `ToolShed.SelfValidate.SelfValidator` for `(,,)`.
* Trapped null list in `ToolShed.System.Random.select`.
* Added functions `ToolShed.Data.List.nub'` & 'ToolShed.Data.List.hasDuplicates'.
* Migrated functions `gather`, `gatherBy`, `hasDuplicates` which merely operate on `Data.Foldable.Foldable` types from module "**ToolShed.Data.List**", into new module "**ToolShed.Data.Foldable**".

## 0.15.0.0
* Refactored **ToolShed.Test.QuickChecks**.
* Added type `ToolShed.Data.List.Matches` & function `ToolShed.src-lib/ToolShed/Test/ReversibleIO.hsData.List.permutationsBy`.
* Trapped the case of a null list supplied to `ToolShed.Data.List.permutationsBy`.
* Re-implemented `ToolShed.System.Random.shuffle`, using the Fisher-Yates algorithm; which also improved the efficiency.
* Trapped special cases in `ToolShed.System.Random.generateSelection`.
* Added modules **ToolShed.Test.System.Random**, **ToolShed.Data.Triple**, **ToolShed.Data.Quadruple**, **ToolShed.Test.Data.Triple**, & **ToolShed.Test.Data.Quadruple**.

* Corrected version-string in **Main** used in option "**--version**".
* Corrected the output of `Main.main.optDescrList.printVersion`.

## 0.15.0.1
* Tested with **haskell-platform-2013.2.0.0**.
* Replaced preprocessor-directives with **build-depends** constraints in the *.cabal*-file.
* In module "**ToolShed.System.File**", replaced `Control.Exception.throw` with `Control.Exception.throwIO`.
* Replaced all instances of `(<$>)` with `fmap` to avoid ambigusrc-lib/ToolShed/Test/ReversibleIO.hsity between modules "**Control.Applicative**" & "**Prelude**" which (from package "**base-4.8**") also exports this symbol.

## 0.16.0.0
* Corrected the copyright dates in **Main**.
* Renamed module "**ToolShed.Test.QuickCheck.Arbitrary.ArrayElem**" to "**ToolShed.Test.QuickCheck.Arbitrary.Array**", overwriting the module originally of that name which pointlessly defined an instance of `Test.QuickCheck.Arbitrary` for an array with an unbounded index.
* Added **Default-language**-specification to the *.cabal*-file.
* Added file "**README.markdown**".
* Converted this file to markdown-format.
* Replaced `System.Exit.exitWith System.Exit.ExitSuccess` with `System.Exit.exitSuccess`.
* Added module "**Test.QuickCheck.Result**".
* Moved the entry-point to the test-suite from module "**Main.hs**" to "**Test.hs**" to integrate with **cabal**.
* Partitioned the source-files into directories "**src-lib**" & "**src-test**", & referenced them individually from the *.cabal*-file to avoid repeated compilation.

## 0.17.0.0
* Corrected the markdown-syntax in this file.
* Reverted to calling "**error**" rather than "**Control.Monad.fail**", since the **String**-argument for the latter is discarded in **Monad**-implementations other than **IO**.
* Uploaded to [GitHub](https://github.com/functionalley/ToolShed.git).
* Simplified file **src-test/Main.hs**.
* Relaxed test **prop_shuffleDistribution** in module **ToolShed.Test.System.Random**.
* Added file **.travis.yml** to control testing by <https://docs.travis-ci.com>.
* Added file **.ghci**.
* Removed module **ToolShed.Defaultable**, since **Data.Default** is a drop-in replacement.
* Added functions **ToolShed.Test.ReversibleIO.readTrailingGarbage** & **ToolShed.Test.ReversibleIO.readPrependedWhiteSpace**.
* Added function **ToolShed.Data.List.interleave** with corresponding quickcheck-tests.
* Added module **ToolShed.Test.Ix** to facilitate testing instances of class **Data.Array.IArray.Ix**.
* Added module **ToolShed.Data.Array.IArray**.
* Added function **ToolShed.Data.String.deTab**.
* Generalised function **ToolShed.System.Random.select** to accept any **Data.Foldable.Foldable** rather than merely a list, & to return **Maybe** rather than an error on receipt of null.
* Added fuzzy matching function **ToolShed.Data.List.measureJaroDistance** & associated **HUnit** & **Quickcheck** tests.
* Tested with **ghc-8.0.1**.

## 0.17.0.1
* Modified Travis-CI configuration.

## 0.17.0.2
* Removed **-prof** from profiling-flags in Cabal-configuration.

## 0.18.0.0
* Removed single-function module **ToolShed.Data.Array.IArray**.

* Added mutators to **ToolShed.Data.Triple** & **ToolShed.Data.Quadruple**.

## 0.18.0.1
Changed references to author's domain-name.

## 0.18.0.2
