Several feature enhancements were made to this version, most notably the
{foreach ...} command which is an alternative to {section ...} with an
easier syntax for looping through a single array of values. Several
functions were enhanced so that the output can be automatically assigned
to a template variable instead of displayed (assign attribute). Cache
files can now be controlled with a custom function as an alternative to
the built-in file based method. Many code cleanups and bug fixed went
into this release as well.
