+CHANGELOG
+=========
+## v1.6.0
+
+### Added
+
+- Improved consistency and coverage for all FRESH themes.
+
+- Support for new `projects` and `affiliations` resume sections.
+
+- Better handling of start and end dates on `employment`, `projects`,
+`education`, and other sections with start/end dates. A missing or empty
+end date will be interpreted as "currently employed/engaged/involved with
+the job/project/education", as will the words "current", "present", or "new".
+
+- New command! `PEEK` at any arbitrary field or entry on your `.json` resume.
+
+- Annotated the HTML and MS Word (XML) formats of the Modern theme for FRESH
+theme authors.
+
+- Emit extended status and error info with the `--debug` or `-d` switch.
+
+- The `-o` or `--options` switch can now handle either the path to a **JSON
+settings file** or **raw JSON/JavaScript**. Since the JSON double quote syntax
+is a bit cumbersome from the command line, HackMyResume accepts regular
+JavaScript object literal syntax:
+
+ hackmyresume build resume.json -o "{ theme: 'compact', silent: 'true' }"
+
+- Ability to disable sorting of resume sections (employments, projects, etc.)
+with the `--no-sort` option. HMR will respect the order of items as they appear
+in your resume `.json` file.
+
+- Improvements to the starter resume emitted by `hackmyresume new`.
+
+- Refactored colors in HackMyResume output. Errors will now display as red,
+warnings as yellow, successful operations as green, and informational warnings
+as cyan. Similar to the color scheme used by Bootstrap.
+
+- Added CHANGELOG.md (this file).
+
+### Changed
+
+- Rewrote the HackMyResume man/help page.
+
+- Minor updates to the FRESCA schema.
+
+- PDF generation now uses asynchronous `spawn()` which has better compatibility
+with old or boutique versions of Node.js. Synchronous spawn is preserved as an
+internal code path.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Issue with synchronous spawning of PDF generation process on older
+versions of Node.
+
+- Issue with stack traces not being emitted correctly when needed.
+
+- Issue with `speaking` section not appearing on generated resume.
+
+### Internal
+
+- Logging messages have been moved out of core HackMyResume code ahead of
+localization support.
+
+- All HackMyResume console output is described in `msg.yml`.
+
+- Relaxed pure JavaScript requirement. CoffeeScript will now start appearing
+in HackMyResume and FluentCV sources!
+
+- Additional tests.
+
+## v1.5.2
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Tweak stack trace under `--debug`.
+
+## v1.5.1
+
+### Added
+
+- Preliminary support for `-d` or `--debug` flag. Forces HackMyResume to emit a stack trace under error conditions.
+
+## v1.5.0
+
+### Added
+
+- HackMyResume now supports **CLI-based generation of PDF formats across multiple engines (Phantom, wkhtmltopdf, etc)**. Instead of talking to these engines over a programmatic API, as in prior versions, HackMyResume 1.5+ speaks to them over the same command-line interface (CLI) you'd use if you were using these tools directly.
+
+- HackMyResume will now (attempt to) **generate a PDF output for JSON Resume themes** (in addition to HTML).
+
+- Minor README and FAQ additions.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Cleaner, quicker installs**. Installing HackMyResume with `npm install hackmyresume -g` will no longer trigger a lengthy, potentially error-prone install for Phantom.js and/or wkhtmltopdf for PDF support. Instead, users can install these engines externally and HMR will use them when present.
+
+- Minor error handling improvements.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fixed an error with generating specific formats with the `BUILD` command (#97).
+
+- Fixed numerous latent/undocumented bugs and glitches.
+
+## v1.4.2
+
+### Added
+
+- Introduced [FAQ](https://github.com/hacksalot/HackMyResume/blob/master/FAQ.md).
+- Additional README notes.
+
+## v1.4.1
+
+### Added
+
+- `hackmyresume new` now generates a [valid starter resume with sample data](https://github.com/fluentdesk/fresh-resume-starter).
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fixed warning message when `hackmyresume new` is run without a filename.
+
+## v1.4.0
+
+### Added
+
+- **"Projects" support**: FRESH resumes and themes can now store and display
+open source, commercial, private, personal, and creative projects.
+- **New command: ANALYZE**. Inspect your resume for gaps, keyword counts, and other metrics. (Experimental.)
+- **Side-by-side PDF generation** with Phantom and wkhtmltopdf. Use the `--pdf` or `-p` flag to pick between `phantom` and `wkhtmltopdf` generation.
+- **Disable PDF generation** with the `--pdf none` switch.
+- **Inherit formats between themes**. Themes can now inherit formats (Word, HTML, .txt, etc.) from other themes. (FRESH themes only.)
+- **Rename resume sections** to different languages or wordings.
+- **Specify complex options via external file**. Use with the `-o` or `--opts` option.
+- **Disable colors** with the `--no-color` flag.
+- **Theme messages and usage tips** instructions will now appear in the default HackMyResume output for the `build` command. Run `hackmyresume build resume.json -t awesome` for an example. Turn off with the `--no-tips` flag.
+- **Treat validation errors as warnings** with the `--assert` switch (VALIDATE command only).
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fixed a minor glitch in the FRESCA schema.
+- Fixed encoding issues in the `Highlights` section of certain resumes.
+- Fix behavior of `-s` and `--silent` flags.
+
+### Changed
+
+- PDF generation now defaults to Phantom for all platforms, with `wkhtmltopdf`
+accessible with `--pdf wkhtmltopdf`.
+- Resumes are now validated, by default, prior to generation. This
+behavior can be disabled with the `--novalidate` or `--force` switch.
+- Syntax errors in source FRESH and JSON Resumes are now captured for all
+commands.
+- Minor updates to README.
+- Most themes now inherit Markdown and Plain Text formats from the **Basis**
+theme.
+
+### Internal
+
+- Switched from color to chalk.
+- Command invocations now handled through commander.js.
+- Improved FRESH theme infrastructure (more partials, more DRY).
+
+## v1.3.1
+
+### Added
+
+- Add additional Travis badges.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fix extraneous console log output when generating a FRESH theme to MS Word.
+- Fix Travis tests on `dev`.
+
+## v1.3.0
+
+### Added
+
+- **Local generation of JSON Resume themes**. To use a JSON Resume theme, first install it with `npm install jsonresume-theme-[blah]` (most JSON Resume themes are on NPM). Then pass it into HackMyResume via the `-t` parameter:
+
+ `hackmyresume BUILD resume.json TO out/somefile.all -t node_modules/jsonresume-theme-classy`
+- **Better Markdown support.** HackMyResume will start flowing basic Markdown styles to JSON Resume (HTML) themes. FRESH's existing Markdown support has also been improved.
+- **.PNG output formats** will start appearing in themes that declare an HTML output.
+- **Tweak CSS embedding / linking via the --css option** (`` vs ``). Only works for HTML (or HTML-driven) formats of FRESH themes. Use `--css=link` to link in CSS assets and `--css=embed` to embed the styles in the HTML document. For example `hackmyresume BUILD resume.json TO out/resume.all --css=link`.
+- **Improved Handlebars/Underscore helper support** for FRESH themes. Handlebars themes can access helpers via `{{helperName}}`. Underscore themes can access helpers via the `h` object.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Distinguish between validation errors and syntax errors** when validating a FRESH or JRS resume with `hackmyresume validate `.
+- **Emit line and column info** for syntax errors during validation of FRESH and JRS resumes.
+- **FRESH themes now embed CSS into HTML formats by default** so that the HTML resume output doesn't have an external CSS file dependency by default. Users can specify normal linked stylesheets by setting `--css=link`.
+- **Renamed fluent-themes repo to fresh-themes** in keeping with the other parts of the project.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fix various encoding errors in MS Word outputs.
+- Fix assorted FRESH-to-JRS and JRS-to-FRESH conversion glitches.
+- Fix error when running HMR with no parameters.
+- Other minor fixes.
+
+## v1.3.0-beta
+
+- Numerous changes supporting v1.3.0.
+
+## v1.2.2
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Various in-passing fixes.
+
+## v1.2.1
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fix `require('FRESCA')` error.
+- Fix `.history` and `.map` errors on loading incomplete or empty JRS resumes.
+
+### Added
+
+- Better test coverage of incomplete/empty resumes.
+
+## v1.2.0
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fixed the `new` command: Generate a new FRESH-format resume with `hackmyresume new resume.json` or a new JSON Resume with `hackmyresume new resume.json -f jrs`.
+
+### Added
+
+- Introduced CLI tests.
+
+## v1.1.0
+
+### Fixed
+
+- MS Word formats: Fixed skill coloring/level bug.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Make the `TO` keyword optional. If no `TO` keyword is specified (for the `build` and `convert` commands), HMR will assume the last file passed in is the desired output file. So these are equivalent:
+
+ ```shell
+ hackmyresume BUILD resume.json TO out/resume.all
+ hackmyresume BUILD resume.json out/resume.all
+ ```
+
+ `TO` only needs to be included if you have multipled output files:
+
+ ```shell
+ hackmyresume BUILD resume.json TO out1.doc out2.html out3.tex
+ ```
+
+## v1.0.1
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Correctly generate MS Word hyperlinks from Markdown source data.
+
+## v1.0.0
+
+- Initial public 1.0 release.
