Bug Fixes ------------------------------ * Statements in the second argument of `assert` are now executed. -* Fixed the expression of a while loop that contains statements being compiled twice. +* Fixed a bug that caused the condition of a `while` to be compiled + twice. * `in` and `not-in` now allow more than two arguments, as in Python. * `hy2py` can now handle format strings. * Fixed crashes from inaccessible history files. -* The unit tests no longer unintentionally import the internal Python module "test". - This allows them to pass when run inside the "slim" Python Docker images. -* `ap-reduce` now accepts any iterable. -* `ap-reduce` now evaluates its arguments only once. +* Removed an accidental import from the internal Python module `test`. +* Fixed a swarm of bugs in `hy.extra.anaphoric`. Misc. Improvements ------------------------------ -* Drop the use of the long-abandoned `clint `_ library - for colors. `colorama `_ is now used instead. +* Replaced the dependency `clint` with `colorama`. 0.17.0 ==============================
