Release notes
*************

This file describes changes in recent versions of Modules. It
primarily documents those changes that are of interest to users and
admins.


Modules 4.1.1 (2018-02-17)
==========================

* Make separator lines, used on "display" command result for
  instance, fit small screen width.

* Install: give ability to build and install Modules from git
  repository without documentation if "sphinx-build" cannot be found.

* Install: adapt "configure" script and Makefiles to support
  installation on FreeBSD, Solaris and OS X systems. (fix issue#147)

* Rework code generated by "autoinit" for sh-kind shells to avoid
  use of local variables as those are defined differently through the
  sh variants. (also fix issue#147)

* Init: use a default value on undefined variables in sh-kind
  scripts to avoid unbound variables in bash "-eu" mode. (fix
  issue#151)

* Correctly detect terminal column number on Solaris.

* Init: fix csh init script to get compatibility with pure csh shell

* Sanitize content of "MODULEPATH" before using it at run-time, to
  make potential relative paths absolute, remove trailing slashes,
  etc. (fix issue#152)

* Check loaded modulefiles still exists before displaying statistics
  on them during a "list" action.

* Use a specific reference counter variable name
  ("MODULES_MODSHARE_<VAR>" instead of "<VAR>_modshare") for DYLD-
  specific variables. (fix issue#153)

* No error raise when updating a DYLD or LD path-like variable on OS
  X when System Integrity Protection (SIP) is enabled. In this
  situation, these variables are not exported in subshell context, so
  they appear undefined.

* Init: protect arguments passed to the "_moduleraw" sh function
  from interfering content of current working directory. (fix
  issue#154)

* Install: move "hostname" RPM requirement to the compat sub-
  package.

* Start pager process only if some text has to be printed.
  (partially fix issue#146)

* Ignore "PAGER" environment variable to configure Modules pager to
  avoid side effects coming from a general pager configuration not
  compatible with Modules pager handling. (fix issue#146)

* Do not blank anymore default Modules pager options if default
  pager is "less" when the "LESS" environment variable is defined.
  (fix issue#146)

Warning: With this bugfix release, changes have been made on the
  pager setup to avoid side effects coming from the system general
  pager configuration. As a result "PAGER" environment variable is now
  ignored and "MODULES_PAGER" should be used instead to adapt Modules
  pager configuration at run-time.


Modules 4.1.0 (2018-01-15)
==========================

* Extend stderr output redirection on sh-kind shells to all
  terminal- attached shell session, not only interactive shell
  session.

* Extend shell code produced by the "autoinit" command to perform
  the same environment initialization as done in "init" shell scripts
  (default value set for module-specific environment variables, parse
  or source of configuration files).

* Make init shell scripts rely on "autoinit" command to define the
  "module" command and setup its default environment.

* Fix error rendering code for Tcl shell by producing a call to the
  "error" procedure.

* Introduce pager support to handle informational messages, using
  "less" command with "-eFKRX" options by default. Environment
  variable "MODULES_PAGER" or "PAGER" may be used to supersede default
  pager command and options. "--paginate" and "--no-pager" switches
  enable or disable pager from the command line.

* Install: add "--with-pager" and "--with-pager-opts" configure
  options to define default pager command and its relative command-
  line options.

* Introduce quarantine mechanism to protect module execution against
  side effect coming from the current environment definition.
  Variables whose name has been put in "MODULES_RUN_QUARANTINE" will
  be emptied or set to the value hold by "MODULES_RUNENV_<VAR>" in the
  modulecmd.tcl run-time environment. Quarantine variable original
  value is then restored within modulecmd.tcl execution context once
  it has started.

* Install: add "--with-quarantine-vars" configure option to define
  at build time the "MODULES_RUN_QUARANTINE" and
  "MODULES_RUNENV_<VAR>" environment variables set in initialization
  scripts.

* Add "MODULES_SILENT_SHELL_DEBUG" environment variable to disable
  on sh shell and derivatives any "xtrace" or "verbose" debugging
  property for the duration of either the module command or the module
  shell initialization script. (fix issue#121)

* Change error code produced by modulecmd.tcl for the Tcl, Perl,
  Python, Ruby, CMake and R scripting languages to return a 'false'
  boolean value in case of error rather raising a fatal exception.

* Adapt module function definition for Tcl, Perl, Python, Ruby,
  CMake and R scripting languages to always return a value, result of
  the modulecmd.tcl run. When modulecmd.tcl run does not produce a
  specific status, a 'true' boolean value is returned. On CMake,
  resulting value is returned though a "module_result" global
  variable.

* Spool content sent to the stdout channel with "puts" command
  during a modulefile interpretation, to effectively transmit this
  content to stdout after rendering the environment changes made by
  this modulefile. (fix issue#113)

* Introduce "append-path", "prepend-path", "remove-path" and "is-
  loaded" module sub-commands, based on existing modulefile-specific
  Tcl commands. (fix issue#116)

* Introduce "is-saved", "is-used" and "is-avail" modulefile Tcl
  commands and module sub-commands to test availability of collection,
  modulepath or modulefile.

* Raise error when a call to "path" or "paths" module sub-commands
  is attempted during a modulefile interpretation. Both commands now
  return text rather print text on scripting languages. An empty
  string is returned in no match case instead of a false boolean
  value.

* Introduce "module-info loaded" modulefile command and its module
  sub-command counterpart "info-loaded". This new command returns name
  of the modules currently loaded corresponding to the name passed as
  argument. (fix issue#3)

* Fix "is-loaded" command to correctly handle multiple module names
  passed as argument (fix issue#138)

* Support no argument on "is-loaded", "is-saved" and "is-used"
  commands to return if anything is respectively loaded, saved or
  used.

* Interpret "module source" command set in modulefile in "unload"
  mode when the modulefile itself is interpreted in this mode.

* Consider a modulefile passed with name starting by "./" or "../" a
  full path name modulefile, like those starting by "/". These kind of
  names are converted to absolute path names, for instance to register
  them in loaded modulefile list during a "load" command.

* Correlate modulefile passed as full path name (starting by either
  "./", "../" or "/") to already loaded modulefile registered with
  regular module name (file name without its modulepath prefix) to
  prevent for instance from loading twice same modulefile. Correlate
  in the same way regular module name to already loaded full path name
  modulefile.

* Introduce "MODULES_COLLECTION_PIN_VERSION" environment variable to
  record modulefile version number when saving collections even if
  version corresponds to the default one. (fix issue#89)

* Fix location of "etc/rc" global RC file to "@prefix@/etc/rc"
  instead of "$MODULESHOME/etc/rc" not to depend on "MODULESHOME"
  environment variable value.

* Strengthen argument check for "append-path", "prepend-path" and
  "remove-path" modulefile Tcl commands and module sub-commands. Raise
  error if argument list is not correct.

* Fix support for the "--delim=C" argument form on "append-path",
  "prepend-path" and "remove-path" commands.

* Fix path reference counter handling in case path element is an
  empty string. Distinguish an empty path element from a variable set
  empty to clear it.

* Pass multiple path elements separated by delimiter character as
  one string on "append-path", "prepend-path" and "remove-path"
  commands.

* Accept multiple path element arguments on "append-path", "prepend-
  path" and "remove-path" commands.

* Introduce the "--duplicates" argument option to "append-path" and
  "prepend-path" commands to add a path element already registered in
  variable.

* Introduce the "--index" argument option to "remove-path" command
  to delete a path entry by passing its position index in variable.

* Provide the ability to setup a site-specific configuration sourced
  at the start of "modulecmd.tcl" main procedure. This configuration
  is a Tcl script named "siteconfig.tcl" which enables to supersede
  any Tcl definition made in "modulecmd.tcl". Location of this file is
  controlled at configure time with the "--etcdir" option.

* Add the ability to handle paths containing reference to
  environment variable in "MODULEPATH". When these kind of paths are
  used by "module" command, the variable references are converted to
  their corresponding value or to an empty string if they are not
  defined.

* Enclose value set to environment variable on Tcl within curly
  braces rather double quotes to protect special characters in it from
  interpretation.

* Correctly parse ".modulespath" initialization file to handle lines
  without any "#" character or to handle files with no content to
  extract.

* Re-introduce the "--enable-versioning" configure option, which
  appends Modules version to installation prefix and deploy a
  "versions" modulepath shared between all versioning enabled Modules
  installation. A modulefile corresponding to Modules version is added
  to the shared modulepath and enables to switch from one Modules
  version to another.

* Fix removal of CMake generated temporary script file by stripping
  newline character from script file name.

* Add "MODULES_CMD" environment variable to expose path to the
  currently active module command script. This variable is set at
  initialization time.

* Introduce "modulecmd" wrapper script, installed in binary
  directory, which executes the active module command.

* Fix modulefile Tcl interpreter reset when handling list variables.
  (fix issue#145)

* Introduce 'module-virtual' modulefile Tcl command to associate a
  virtual module name to a modulefile. This module can be located with
  its virtual name and the associated modulefile is the script
  interpreted when loading, unloading, etc.

* Resolution of relative paths occurring during a modulefile
  interpretation to target a modulefile or a modulepath now takes the
  directory of the currently interpreted modulefile as the current
  working directory to solve the relative paths.


Modules 4.0.0 (2017-10-16)
==========================

Starting with this release, modules-tcl has become Modules. The
following changes describe the differences with last modules-tcl
release (1.923). To learn about the changes between this release and
last Modules 3.2 release, please see the MIGRATING document.

* Relax constraint on command-line argument position so options and
  switches can be passed either before or after command name.

* Report "unsupported option" warning rather stop on error when
  compatibility-version specific command-line switches are passed ( "
  --force", "--human", "--verbose", "--silent", "--create", "--icase",
  "--userlvl").

* Keep empty "module load" line in shell configuration files after
  running the "initrm" or "initclear" commands.

* Always return the value of "tcl_platform(osVersion)" for "uname
  release"

* Optimize code output, for Perl to only return "1;" once for a no-
  operation situation and for Python to not "import os" when there is
  only an error to render.

* Use value of system command "uname -n" for "uname nodename".

* Add support for CMake *shell*

* Ignore "/" character used as suffix in modulefile name passed on
  command line.

* Rename Perl initialization script in "perl.pm" and Python in
  "python.py".

* Add support for Ruby *shell* (with contribution from Tammo Tjarks)

* Add support for R *shell* (with contribution from Roy Storey)

* When a *default* is set for a given module name, target modulefile
  can be referred on as *modulename/default* in addition to just
  *modulename*.

* Locate symbolic versions on "avail" command even these symbols are
  set over a module alias or another symbolic version. In this
  situation the symbol spread along the resolution path until reaching
  a modulefile.

* Define a more standard shebang on modulecmd.tcl script.

* Determine modulefile corresponding to given module name using the
  loaded context only on "unload" situation.

* Enable to unload *mod/dir/subdir/vers* when unload of *mod* or
  *mod/dir* asked. Was previously working only if deep module to
  unload was also the default version for these root names.

* Make -l/-t switches mutually exclusive. Last switch mentioned on
  the command-line is honored.

* Output parsable modulepath header when -l/-t switches are enabled.

* When searching for a module in a given modulepath directory, if a
  module alias or a symbolic version matches searched module but the
  target of this alias or symbol is not found in current modulepath
  directory, search for this target restarting search from the first
  modulepath in list to ensure modulepath priority.

* Solve aliases or symbolic versions looking for all modulepaths on
  "search" and "paths" commands. Was previously solved if their target
  was found in same modulepath directory.

* Add support for hidden *dot* modulefiles. A hidden modulefile does
  not appear in case of wild search, it is only returned when search
  is about its exact name.

* No table header print in --long mode on an "avail" command if no
  result are returned.

* Add blank line between displayed list of elements, for instance
  between modulepath content on "avail" command.

* Improve readability of error messages encountered during
  modulefile execution by putting Tcl error message first after the
  "Module ERROR" prefix.

* Do not exit immediately when an internal error occurs in currently
  interpreted modulefile. Consider this interpretation as failed and
  continue to proceed the other modulefile arguments.

* When multiple modulefiles are passed on "display", "help" and
  "test" commands only output one separator line between 2 interpreted
  modulefiles.

* Fix environment settings stack handling issue when restoring stack
  after a failed attempt to load a modulefile in a modulefile.

* Failed attempt to load or unload a modulefile within a modulefile
  now leads to this upper modulefile load or unload failure.
  Previously upper modulefile were loaded respectively unloaded even
  if its dependent sub-modulefile failed to load or unload.

* During a "switch" command, if the unloading part fails the loading
  part will not be tried. Unloading part fails if module to unload
  does not exist or its unload interpretation raise error.

* Init: use "module source" rather shell command "source" to load
  modulerc system configuration in sh-kind, csh-kind and fish shell
  init scripts.

* Install: transform configuration options to bind to an existing
  compatibility Modules version into option (--enable-compat-version)
  to build and install this compatibility version along with main
  version.

* Init: adapt initialization scripts to handle both main and
  compatibility version. By default a shell script enables main
  version and if the environment variable MODULES_USE_COMPAT_VERSION
  is set to 1, the compatibility version is enabled instead of main
  version.

* Install: import from compatibility version and install
  "add.modules" and "mkroot" utility scripts (scripts developed by
  R.K. Owen).

* Install: update RPM spec file to handle compatibility version as a
  "compat" sub-package.

* Add completion script for Fish shell (contribution from BEFH).

* Doc: extend content of diff_v3_v4 to details all noticeable
  changes between v3.2 and v4.0.

* Doc: introduce MIGRATING guide to learn the major changes when
  moving from v3.2 to v4.0.

* Fix "list" command when full pathname modulefile is loaded (fix
  bug#132)

* Install: handle version number though git tags in scripts,
  documentation and RPM spec file.

* Doc: migrate documents from POD format to reStructuredText to
  benefit from Sphinx documentation framework and Read The Docs
  publishing capabilities.

Above changes describe the differences with modules-tcl release 1.923.
To learn about the changes between Modules 4.0 and last Modules 3.2
release, please see the MIGRATING document.


modules-tcl-1.923 (2017-07-20)
==============================

* Fix "aliases" command when a global or user RC file is set.

* Find and solve global or user RC aliases and symbolic versions on
  "search", "whatis" and "paths" commands.

* Do not look at currently loaded modules to resolve the target of a
  module alias.

* Rework default and latest versions search on "avail" command.
  Correct display when at a given level a sub-directory element is
  last element in directory among modulefiles. Previously sub-
  directory was printed but last file among modulefiles was also
  printed (2 latest versions at the same level). A directory tagged
  "default" does not appear anymore in default listing result as its
  content (the default version found in that directory) will be
  displayed.

* When an alias is set and overrides name of an existing directory,
  take this alias into account for default and latest choice and
  ignore directory content.

* Bad default set will lead to no result displayed for the
  corresponding module in case of default "avail" display.

* Correct inclusion of aliases in output result when these aliases
  are not part of the exact same module path than module path of the
  search.

* Rewrite existing shell initialization file with initadd,
  initprepend, initswitch, initrm and initclear commands rather than
  writing a new file then copying this new file to replace the
  existing initialization file. In addition only re-writes shell
  initialization file if its content need to be altered.

* Raise an error on initadd, initprepend, initswitch, initrm and
  initclear commands when no "module load" line are found in shell
  initialization file.

* Normalize error messages for the various collection-related
  commands when collection cannot be accessed.

* Cleanup existing reference counters of a path list variable when
  this variable is altered by a "setenv" or an "unsetenv" command.

* Init: do not pollute tab-completion with moduleraw command. (Bert
  Wesarg)

* Make use of the same Tcl interp for each modulefile interpretation
  and use another one for each modulerc (but the same for each
  modulerc). By doing so we proceed like on C-version where same
  interpreter is used across modulefile or modulerc interpretation.
  Huge performance improvement is achieved with this change on
  commands making intensive use of interp like "avail". Interpreter
  state is reset from one interpretation to another: the initial
  variable and procedure state is restored before each new
  interpretation to avoid spread of definitions from one
  interpretation to another. Also in case of nested interpretation
  each interpretation level has its own interpreter so a module loaded
  by another does not influence the interpretation of the module
  loading it.

* Improve performance of aliases and symbolic versions resolution by
  computing these resolution at definition time. As a consequence
  resolution loop are not registered anymore and produce an error
  message when spotted not at display time.

* Reduce number of "access" system call by trying access to
  modulefile when reading the content of a modulefile directory rather
  testing access before trying it.

* No error raise on empty argument list for load. To cope with
  initadd behavior that requires at least an empty "module load" line
  in startup files. (fix SF bug#88)

* Fix initadd to handle load line without trailing space. Was
  previously expecting load directive to be written "module load "  to
  get a match. With fix, "module load" line will also be matched.

* Like C-version catch raised error when break or continue are
  called from outside of a loop to handle them as when they are called
  from modulefile main body. (fix SF bug#87)

* Return error on "module use" command when an empty path string is
  provided rather ignoring it.

* Workaround "min" and "max" functions and "lreverse" procedure for
  correct operations under Tcl version 8.4.

* Install: add --with-tclsh configure option to give the ability to
  choose the Tcl interpreter shell to setup in initialization scripts.

* Handle error raised from the ModulesDisplay, ModulesHelp and
  ModulesTest procedures in the same way than for the evaluation of
  the modulefile content. An error occurring during the evaluation of
  the modulefile content will lead to no evaluation of the "display",
  "help" and "test" command specific functions.

* Remove "debug" module command

* Doc: describe "path", "paths" and "autoinit" module command.

* Correct use of xrdb tool when not installed in default path.

* Fix "init*" module commands to behave more like C-version and
  document remaining differences in diff_with_c-version.

* Init: make "sh" init script closer to POSIX specification to
  support sh flavors different than Bash or Zsh like Dash.

* Fix column-mode display for very short width terminal.

* Install: introduce an "install" non-regression testsuite which is
  triggered by the "make testinstall" command and checks modules-tcl
  installation is operational.

* Init: fix modulerc load test on "fish" init script.

* Init: fix interactive shell test on "sh" init script.

* Install: add --enable-example-modulefiles configure option that
  install by default some modulefiles provided as example in the
  system modulefiles directory.

* Install: when uninstalling, do not remove modulefiles directory if
  it is not empty.

* Add completion script for Zsh shell.

* Add "module test" command to trigger when called execution of a
  ModulesTest procedure in target modulefile following same kind of
  mechanism than "module help".


modules-tcl-1.832 (2017-04-29)
==============================

* Fix "getenv" sub-command to correctly return environment variable
  value.

* Clarify in man-pages display of module alias and symbolic version-
  name on "avail" command and management of file access issue when
  locating modulefiles.

* Distinguish access issue (permission denied) from find issue
  (cannot locate) when trying to access directly a directory or a
  modulefile as done on "load", "display" or "whatis" commands. In
  addition on this kind of access, not readable .modulerc files are
  ignored rather producing a missing magic cookie error.

* When mode is set to unload, "module load" commands in modulefile
  are interpreted as "module unload" commands. To guaranty correct
  behavior regarding requirements, the module list passed to the load
  command is reversed to unload the modulefiles in the reverse order
  than they have been loaded.

* Correct "display" command to only report module commands set in
  modulefile and not those set in the various .modulerc on the path
  toward this modulefile.

* Fix bash and tcsh completion scripts to eliminate symbolic version
  names from "avail" command result.

* Improve "avail" command when a symbolic version-name is passed as
  argument to return the modulefile target of this symbolic version-
  name.

* When looking for an implicit default in a directory, now a module
  alias is taken into account so it can be returned as the last
  element in it (highest numerically sorted version).

* Fix "list" command to correctly display the "default" tag along
  loaded modules when set via a .version file.

* Fix long output of "list" command to display the symbolic version-
  names associated to each loaded module if any.

* Improve "avail" command to return alias module when an alias name
  is passed as argument.

* On a "--default" listing, a modulefile does not appear anymore if
  a directory is set default at the same level. On a "--latest"
  listing, a directory does not appear anymore if set default but not
  the latest.

* Read modulerc and validate its header in a single open/read/close
  sequence instead of two in order to reduce to number of IO
  operations during an "avail" command.

* Drastically reduce grid size computation time which removes
  overhead when displaying module avail results in column-mode.

* Translate module name to currently interpreted module name when
  name correspond to the last part this interpreted module only in
  case of symbolic version-name or alias resolution.

* Avoid resetting regular path (/usr/bin) or manpath
  (/usr/share/man) when switching from Tcl to C version in switchml
  utility.

* Raise error on x-resource if DISPLAY environment variable is not
  set.

* Fix lisp init script which was broken for environment change
  actions.


modules-tcl-1.775 (2017-03-07)
==============================

* Improve README with examples, requirements, links, etc. Also
  update INSTALL documentation with details on the new
  configure/make/make install process.

* Add display of a release date next to the version number when
  calling for "--help" or "--version".

* Update diff_with_c-version document to describe the features of
  the Tcl-version that are not supported on the C-version. Also state
  that the diff takes C version 3.2.10 against Tcl version 1.729 as a
  basis.

* Introduce "switchml" tool, a shell function (or alias for csh or
  tcsh shells) that swap currently enabled Modules version (C or Tcl)
  by the other version (C or Tcl). Configure option "--with-cver-
  initdir" must be defined to enable "switchml" in initialization
  script.

* Define a PATH and MANPATH in shell initialization scripts that
  point to the defined modules-tcl installation directories.

* Give ability to generate distribution tarball from the git
  repository with Makefile "dist" target.

* Introduce an installation process for this software following the
  configure/make/make install fashion. Configure step enables to
  choose installation paths and init scripts features to activate.
  Make step mainly translates init scripts with the configuration set.
  Make install creates target directories and copy files into them.

* Fix MODULESHOME setup in autoinit command to define it as an
  absolute path and set it to the upper directory when modulecmd.tcl
  is located in a "bin" or a "libexec" directory.

* Correct alias and version resolution on avail command which was
  erroneous in case of a modulefile holding symbols (like "default")
  and targeted by aliases. Avail output was showing the aliases
  holding the symbols instead of the modulefile.


modules-tcl-1.729 (2017-02-01)
==============================

* Add documentation in module(1) man page on the modulefile
  collection concept and the relative "save", "restore", "saverm",
  "saveshow" and "savelist" commands.

* Add document to list the differences of the functionalities that
  can be found on the C-version of the Modules package compared to the
  Tcl-version.

* Improve modulecmd.tcl shebang to only search "tclsh" once if found
  in PATH.

* Add "module-info mode" check against "remove" and "switch" values.

* Introduce "module-info command" Modules-specific Tcl command to
  distinguish complex "load" or "unload" commands that cannot be
  determined with "module-info mode" alone. For instance a modulefile
  can now be aware that a "switch", a "restore" or a "purge" command
  is currently being run.

* Enable usage of "module-info" Modules-specific Tcl command from a
  modulerc file.

* Fix "module-info specified" Modules-specific Tcl command.

* No exit raise on modulefile or modulerc error during "avail",
  "aliases", "whatis" and "search" commands to avoid harming results
  from these global commands if error exists in a few modulefiles.

* Exit with error code when a critical error is encountered when
  interpreting a modulefile or a modulerc.

* Inhibit non-critical error report raised from modulefiles during
  "avail", "aliases", "whatis" and "search" commands to avoid error
  flood when parsing all modulefiles or modulercs.

* Handle multiple lines of "module-whatis" Modules-specific Tcl
  commands defined for the same modulefile.

* Handle multiple arguments passed to the "module-whatis" Modules-
  specific Tcl commands. They are joined to get a single line of text.

* Return error on "whatis" command if searched modulefile is not
  found.


modules-tcl-1.704 (2017-01-20)
==============================

* Set path variable counter to 1 for paths without a known reference
  count (was previously set to 999999999).

* Introduce "envml" utility which acts as an application launcher
  where module commands are instantiated to setup environment before
  launching the given application.

* Always register paths provided to be part of MODULEPATH
  environment variable as absolute paths to get independent from the
  current working directory.

* Inhibit next modulefiles interpretation with "exit" Modules-
  specific Tcl command only if current mode is "load".

* Add argument to "module-info shell" and "module-info shelltype" to
  test current shell or shelltype value.

* Fix use of "default" version-name to not consider it as a module
  symbol if a modulefile is named "default".

* Fix path variable counters when ":" character is used in elements
  of a path-like variable.

* Update module(1) and modulefile(4) man pages to clear content
  specific to the C version of Modules and add content specific to or
  adapt content that behave differently on this Tcl version.

* Fix TCLSH variable issue in Python init script.


modules-tcl-1.677 (2017-01-04)
==============================

* Make "switch" command handle a single argument. The modulefile to
  switch to is the one passed on the command-line and the modulefile
  to unload is assumed to be the currently loaded module with the same
  root name as this modulefile specified on the command-line.

* Make "switch" command idempotent by always ending up with "old"
  unloaded and "new" loaded, whatever the starting situation is.

* Fix "exit" Modules-specific Tcl command.

* Add "refresh" command as alias on "reload" command.

* Add dummy "module-log", "module-trace", "module-user" and "module-
  verbosity" Modules-specific Tcl commands to enable support for
  modulefiles using them.

* Fix "system" Modules-specific Tcl command  to behave like
  described on the man page.

* Fix "module list" when module loaded with full path

* Disable "g_force" property by default to avoid loading a
  modulefile already loaded. It also avoids path element reference
  counting to get increased when the same module is asked twice for
  load.

* Clarify module-info "mode" option and set "help" mode on "module
  help" command.

* Clarify module-info "flags" and "user" options.

* Handle empty or separator path on "add-path" ad "unload-path"
  commands.

* Delete environment variable targeted by an "unsetenv" command on
  "unload" mode if no value has been provided along. On display mode,
  print environment variable value if any has been passed to
  "unsetenv" command.

* When setting Tcl variable, enclose value within double quotes.

* Fix perl quoting style for variable set, escape single quotes
