Make --enable-modulespath the primary option name and
--enable-dotmodulespath the secondary option name as .modulespath is not
anymore the primary name of this configuration file.
Installation option '--enable-set-shell-startup' is set off by default
but could be enabled once installed through the `initrc` configuration
file.
It seems better to let people choose to enable this option than being
surprised to find Modules initialization script run automatically each
time a sub-shell is spawn.
Use of '^' character to redirect stderr has been deprecated starting
Fish version 3.1. It now produces an error. Stderr should be redirected
with '2>' like on SH shells. Hopefully '2>' redirection is also
supported on old Fish versions (all version 2 support it).
This update was performed on modulecmd.tcl with 711c901 commit, but fish
initialization script was forgotten at that time.
Silently include version.inc in main, doc and init Makefiles to avoid
'Makefile:349: version.inc: No such file or directory' warning message
when version.inc needs to be rebuilt prior being loaded.
Print generated file names rather commands executed to generate these
files on makefile build targets. Output when making Modules is this way
simplified. When option `V=1` is passed to make verbose mode is enabled
and executed commands are shown.
Simplified make output does not apply to the install, uninstall, test,
clean, distclean targets and their relatives.
Update shell completion scripts to make use of the module option -o to
control the element to find in output rather using sed command to discard
the unwanted elements.
When initializing module on ksh shell with the autoinit sub-command, add
to the FPATH environment variable the directory where module function is
defined. Which helps to get module function defined in ksh interactive
and non-interactive sub-shells.
This FPATH setup for ksh shell was previously done in ksh initialization
script.

Fixes#325
`-E` option is a *relatively* recent option of GNU sed (v4.2), yet
mandatory for OS portability (as detailled in b68e44e).
Adapt configure step to detect if sed option `-E` is supported and
fallback to `-r` otherwise.
Fixes#317
`compopt` Bash builtin has been introduced in Bash 4.0, so using it on
Bash <4.0 prints error messages. To fix this, `comptopt` availability is
checked prior usage. If not available, the no-space-append behavior will
not be obtained which will not be an optimal situation if the
`no-indepth` mode is set for the `avail` sub-command.
Fixes#318
Add the ability to control whether or not a ``ml`` command should be
defined at Modules initialization time. `ml` is a handy frontend to the
module command: it reduces the number of characters to type to trigger
module.
Enablement is managed throught a new configuration option named `ml`
(which defines `MODULES_ML` environment variable when set). It may be
enabled by default in `modulecmd.tcl` script with option `--enable-ml`
passed to `./configure` script.
Make MODULESHOME environment variable controllable through the `config`
sub-command with `home` configuration option. A `--with-moduleshome`
argument is also added to the ./configure script to set specific default
value for this option at installation time.
Fixes#292
Add the ability to select a module when its version is partially
specified. Enable this behavior through a new configuration option named
`extended_default` (which defines `MODULES_EXTENDED_DEFAULT` environment
variable when set).
When extended_default mechanism is enabled a module version may be
specified by its starting portion, part separated from the rest of the
version string by a `.` or `-` character.
When multiple versions match partial version specified and only one
module should be returned, default version (implicit or explicit) among
matches is returned. In case `implicit_default` is disabled and no
explicit default is found among matches, an error is returned.
Mechanism may be enabled by default in `modulecmd.tcl` script with
option `--enable-extended-default` passed to `./configure` script.
Introduce the wa_277 configuration option to workaround an issue with Tcsh
history described on ticket #277.
When option is enabled (which sets the MODULES_WA_277 environment variable
to 1), an alternative module alias is defined which fixes the history
mechanism issue. However the alternative definition of the module alias
weakens shell evaluation of the code produced by modulefiles. Characters
with special meaning for Tcsh shell (like { and }) may not be used
anymore in shell alias definition elsewhere the evaluation of the code
produced by modulefiles will return a syntax error.
Fixes#277.
