DocKnot 7.00

The recent 6.01 release of my static web site generator was kind of a buggy mess, which uncovered a bunch of holes in my test suite and immediately turned up problems when I tried to use it to rebuild my actual web site. Most of the problems were Unicode-related; this release hopefully sorts out Unicode properly and handles it consistently.

Other bugs fixed include processing of old-style pointers in a spin input tree, several rather obvious bugs in the new docknot release command, and a few long-standing issues with docknot dist that should make its results more consistent and reliable.

I also got on a roll and finished the Path::Tiny transition in DocKnot, so now (nearly) all paths are internally represented as Path::Tiny objects. This meant changing some APIs, hence the version bump to 7.00.

For anyone who still does a lot of Perl, I highly recommend the Path::Tiny module. If you also write Python, you will be reminded (in a good way) of Python's pathlib module, which I now use whenever possible.

You can get the latest version of DocKnot from CPAN or from its distribution page.
