 # CHANGELOG
 
+## 1.0.13 (2021-03-28)
+
+This release introduces support for creating simple command-line
+interfaces.  The SWI-Prolog standard library includes a module called
+`optparse`, but is relatively complex and performs many exponential
+checks.  Also, the here included support library is intended to be
+decomposed into reusable parts (e.g., calculating width-delimited text
+is part of `string_ext`).  The command-line interface support is only
+an initial version currently, but the intention is to extended this
+over time.
+
+Here follows the full list of changes:
+
+### call_ext
+
+- Renamed `call_bool/2` to `call_boolean/2`.  This is more consistent
+  with the name of the Prolog type `boolean`.
+
+### cli, cli\_arguments, cli\_help, cli\_version
+
+- Added a new module that makes it easy to write CLI tools.
+
+### dcg
+
+- Added `dcg_char//1` for parsing/generating one single character.
+
+- Renamed `dcg_bool//1` to `dcg_pp_boolean//1`.  This is more
+  consistent with the name of the Prolog type `boolean`, and indicates
+  the pretty-print purpose better.
+
+- Added `dcg_boolean//1` for parsing/generating Boolean values.
+
+- Added `dcg_peek//1` which can be useful for simple debugging.
+
+### dict
+
+- Fixed instantiation `(-, +, ?)` of predicate `dict_get/3`.
+
+### print_ext
+
+- Renamed `call_print_bool/1` to `call_print_boolean/1` and renamed
+  `print_bool/1` to `print_boolean/1`.  These are more consistent with
+  the name of the Prolog type `boolean`.
+
+### rest-server
+
+- Removed `http_server_init/1`.  It is better to use the SWI-Prolog
+  standard library predicates for initialization an HTTP server
+  instead.
+
+### string_ext
+
+- Added `max_string_length/2` for calculating the length of the
+  longest given string.
+
+- Added `message_lines/3` and `words_lines/[3,4]` for generating
+  width-delimited displays of text.
+
