TAO

release 3.0

This release is to take advantage of the new "add on local" table variable for storing the api abstraction layer object and the localization library object. The main guts of TAO have not changed, except to obtain the new references. In doing this version I changed the "reference names" of the three libraries, so if you've written some extra functionality of your own that obtains references to the libraries make sure you update that (especially augmenting/overriding the localization lua file).

This version SHOULD NOT IMPACT your saved settings. They should be available and function as if nothing has changed.
------------------
release 2.2

Forgot to add the two new functions tao_MacroPrefix and tao_MacroSuffix into the documentation of release 2.1

release 2.2 is purely a documentation update.
------------------
release 2.1

This is a release to fix a bug with the get macro player name logic (tao_GetTricksMacroPlayerName).

It did not take into account the variables taomacroprefix and taomacrosuffix, it strictly used the default values.
What this means is, everything works fine EXCEPT for /taoshow and the tooltip line which shows the target's name
IF you are using customized settings for the macro prefix or macro suffix or both.

This release fixes that issue.

NOTE: This is a logic error only. TAO would still allow you to set a target and Tricks of the Trade them normally, it
just wouldn't let you see who the target was so you may not have run into this bug and found things working fine.
-------------------------
release 2.0

There are new commands. The documentation has been updated to explain them all, and has a table of contents so you can quickly see what's in
it.
Some of the new commands are:
/taolang to change the locales used by the localization routines. Probably not very necessary.
/taovar to set variables, which is the way you customize the add on now. These can be changed on the fly and the last value is saved.
/taotarget to set the macro to the current target, so long as they are in your party/raid.
/taoname to set it to a typed in name.
to name a few (if not all)

I sort of redid a lot of it as the number of routines growing meant there was a number of replicated lines of code. It sits at 50K on my machine which seems rather large. When it initially loads up it spikes for a bit. I saw 119K or 149K or something, then drops back to 50K where it seems to remain. I'd like it to be lighter in the future. I think my initial non-distributed version was very small possibly under 20K (pre-localization, persistence etc...)

client language may force customization of the macro. This version is more oriented towards customizing the macro generated.
