• Fixed the precedence of the == operator
• Added different output formats to bracketed symbols
• Fixed a parsing bug with some nested if constructs
• Improved error reporting now reports actual file line numbers as well as string expansions
• Added multiple charmaps (be careful as some feature has been deprecated, a warning has been added about it)
• Fixed bug with line numbers in some IF/ELIF/ELSE blocks
• Added configurable recursion limit to prevent infinite loops
• Fixed unary NOT being a no-op on constant expressions
• Made behavior consistent whether outputting a .o file or not
• Allowed tabs to be used before line continuations
• Allowed sections without content to be placed anywhere
• Made error message more explicit with macro argument 0
