followed by digit (ignore 2nd byte of FNC4 when categorizing
Code C characters)
- New `ZBarcode_Cap()` flag `ZINT_CAP_BINDABLE`, differentiated
from `ZINT_CAP_STACKABLE`, and new Qt Backend method
`isBindable()`
- CLI: fix `separator` check to use new `ZINT_CAP_BINDABLE` instead
of `ZINT_CAP_STACKABLE`
- ZBarcode_Cap: add missing symbologies to `ZINT_CAP_BINDABLE` (was
`ZINT_CAP_STACKABLE`)
- DOTCODE: pad rows if given number of columns instead of failing
if rows below min (5)
- DBAR/composites: ensure stacked symbologies and composites are
not stacked (set `symbol->rows` to 0)
- test suite: move `test_perf` routines into single test
"test_perf";
new "test_random" (based on "test_bwipp") to test various
symbologies with random binary - discovered CODABLOCKF bug;
expand "test_bwipp"
manual: Feeback: mention AZTEC -1 meaning min & MICROPDF417:
doc new `ZINT_CAP_BINDABLE`
general: various code fiddlings and re-formattings
fields `raw_segs` and `raw_seg_count` instead of `text`, and to
do so for all symbologies, using new common funcs `rt_cpy()` etc.
MICROPDF417: return ECC percentage in top byte of `option_1`
DBAR_EXP_STK: return `option_2`/`option_3` feedback
CLI: change warning text "ignoring" -> "**IGNORED**"
GUI: show feedback for DBAR_EXP_STK, MICROPDF417, UPNQR
ctest: fix recent inability to run tests via "ctest" on Windows
(MSVC) by using cmake 3.22 feature `ENVIRONMENT_MODIFICATION`
manual: document feedback and RAW_TEXT in new "Feedback" section;
rephrase some symbology descriptions
test suite: new general-use arg "-a"; add `func_name` to context;
new "test_bwipp" test for testing BWIPP against ZXing-C++
DOTCODE/GRIDMATRIX/HANXIN/MICROPDF417/MICROQR/PDF417/QRCODE/
RMQR/ULTRA: set `option_1/2/3` to values used in encodation
("Feedback options"), and add new access methods
`encodedOption1()` etc. to Qt Backend, and use in GUI to provide
better feedback on "Automatic" selections
- AZTEC: give more precise warnings in low ECC situations, and
indicate via `option_1` by setting to -1 (min 3 words), 0
(<5% + 3 words) (`ecc_ratio`)
- set_height: fix non-compliance false positives by using epsilon
in checks (prompted by CODABLOCKF non-compliant warning for
zint-generated compliant height - floating point `rows` mult !=
`zero_count` div; one test regression for CODE93);
better warning messages on non-compliant heights (min/max)
- manual/man page: fix DATAMATRIX Sizes tables "28 12x26" ->
"27 12x26"
- GUI: AZTEC/CODEONE: add Zint versions to comboboxes
- DOTCODE: improve error messages re size too small/large
- ULTRA: better ZINT_TEST codeword dump (ZINT_DEBUG_TEST)
- general: various tabs -> spaces; prettify main .rc files;
trailing spaces; small amount of code fiddling (CODE16K)
to suppress warnings about `errtxtf` operand number "%<n>$" args;
enable some further warnings
test suite: enable -Wpedantic and fix/suppress any warnings
encodation in certain cases (and no pessimizations found so far),
props lyngklip (BWIPP);
fix extended char latching when exactly 3 extended chars at end;
count code set C (not digits) in loop deciding when to
shift/latch to extended for better estimate
AZTEC: return warning if ECC < 5% (due to bit-stuffing when version
given); return error if > 22 layers (Zint 26) for Reader
Initialisation symbol requested for better error message
AZTEC/HANXIN/QRCODE: consolidate different ECC data size tables
into one indexed by ECC
DBAR_EXP: check for reduced length <= 77 up front for better error
message
HANXIN: use `malloc()` rather than `z_alloca()` for large binary
array
QRCODE: `ecc_level` now 0-based (not 1-based)
MICROQR: consolidate different version end routines into one
`microqr_end()` and use new `microqr_data` table to simplify code
MICROPDF417: use table for max codewords per column
library: centralize all error messages using new `errtxt()`,
`errtxtf()`, `errtxt_adj()` funcs that protect `symbol->errtxt`
from overflow, & try to make error messages more consistent
thru-out, adding more feedback info to many, & use positional
args "%n$" in prep for l10n (maybe);
`is_sane/is_sane_lookup()` -> `not_sane/not_sane_lookup()`,
returning 1-based position (zero on failure) instead of bool;
`long` ints -> plain `int` (except those dealing with `ftell()`,
`fread()` etc) as depend on int being 32-bits already
GUI: in "grpDATF.ui" use "PlainText" rather than "RichText" for
tracker ratio examples as height of text messing up sometimes
manual: clarify Codablock-F length maximum & add examples
docs: README: pandoc 3.5, Ubuntu 24.04
CMake: use "-Wpedantic" for Clang only as GNU complains about
`errtxtf()` positional args "%n$"
GS1 percents in `qr_in_alpha()`, ticket #300, props Andre Maute;
also defensively re-calc version 40 mode to prevent possible
further crashes
common: move `debug_print_escape()` from library to common
GS1 mode, ticket #271
- CLI: improve `getopt_long_only()` processing, printing own message if bad
arg and returning error if so rather than continuing to process
- manual: MSE typo -> MSI, a few other changes; adjust SVG scaling for PDF
manual; pandoc 2.19.2

use native path for Save As clipboard message
CODE128: use gs1_check_digit() for NVE18 and EAN14
add specify rows option (option_3) (#204);
warn if cols increased from specified (back-incompatible);
move table definitions from "pdf417.h" to new "pdf417_tabs.h" and
make INTERNAL_DATA and share with composite.c (saves ~10K);
prefix routines and tables with "pdf_";
some small performance improvements through if/elses, pdf_textprocess()
& pdf_numbprocess() loop simplifications

GRIDMATRIX, MAXICODE, MICROPDF417, PDF417, QRCODE, ULTRA
DOTCODE: use pre-calculated generator poly coeffs in Reed-Solomon for
performance improvement
