Revision history for Perl extension Tie::TextDir.

0.06

• Improved speed considerably by using Perl's open() instead of the FileHandle module, and sysread() instead of <FH>. [patch by Perrin Harkins]
• Data is now written to a temporary file using File::Temp, and then we rename() to the destination file, making the actual write an atomic operation. [patch by Perrin Harkins]
• When creating filehandles, we now use Symbol.pm if perl's version is less than 5.6, and just auto-vivify them otherwise.

• Added a Build.PL script for installing via Module::Build if the user wishes to.

• Now accepts the opening-mode as 'rw', 'ro', or a bitmask like O_CREAT|O_RDWR. This improves compatibility with things like MLDBM and MLDBM::Sync. (Thanks to Joshua Chamas)
• Uses File::Spec to construct file paths, so it should now work on other OSs like Windows, Mac
• delete($hash{key}) will now return the deleted value, like it should.
• General code cleanup - the old code style was rather embarassing
• Lots of documentation updates
