We recently introduced hard-wired code to apply hyphen as page
range delimiter in the French and Portuguese locales, with a view
to introducing a page-range-delimiter term in CSL 1.0.1. The new
term has been agreed within CSL, but official deployment must
await the CSL 1.0.1 schema release.
The original code was purely hard-wired. This change allows an
explicit page-range-delimiter term to be set within a style
(or in a locale file), as intended by the upcoming CSL schema.
This might have been limited to case-insensitive filesystems.
Also fix renaming when the previous filename didn't include an
extension. Before, a file named "test" would be renamed from parent with
".test" as the extension.
Sorry for the flurry of version releases of late. They have been
largely driven by the early work on the legal style suite for MLZ,
which kept turning up small bugs and wrinkles. The requirements for
law support are now pretty well covered, and things should slow down,
at least for awhile.
A bill is a law that has not yet been enacted. Legislation is law
that has been enacted. The two are archived and cited differently,
and should be associated with different item types. CSL provides
a legislation type that is well suited to serve for laws that
have been enacted.
Among the existing styles in the repository, only two use
the legislation variable (american-association-of-petroleum-geologists
and irish-historical-studies). Both treat it as equivalent to bill. All
other styles use CSL bill exclusively.
It would be safe at this point to add legislation alongside bill
in all tests where it occurs (481 repository styles, apart from the
two mentioned above).
There is no particular urgency about this patch for official Zotero,
though, since statute support is likely to change considerably when
full legal support comes onstream anyway.
