Transition from v3.2
--------------------
Starting from v4.0, the Modules project provides the `module` command based
on the native Tcl implementation as main version instead of the traditional
C version. The full Tcl rewrite of the Modules package, previously called
Modules-Tcl, was started in 2002 and has now reached maturity to take over
the binary version in order to push forward the *module* concept.
All new releases are in fact *double-releases* as they also ship the latest
stable version of the traditional C flavor of modulecmd. This *compatibility*
version is labeled 3.2.11 as it is based on 3.2.10 with addition of widely
used patches. The compatibility version builds and installs by default
along with the new main version (v4 or later). Same initialization scripts
are shared between compatibility and new main versions and a `switchml`
shell function enables to swap from one module flavor to another.
If you are moving from Modules 3.2 to 4.0 or later, please look at the
MIGRATING document. It provides an outlook of what has changed between the 2
versions. Both v3.2 and >=v4.0 are quite similar and transition to the new
major version should be smooth. Slight differences may however be noticed
in a few use-cases and the migration guide provides details about them.
