Sourced from cmd2's releases.

3.4.0 (March 3, 2026)

• Enhancements

  • Moved cmd2-specific printing logic from Cmd.print_to() into Cmd2BaseConsole.print() and Cmd2BaseConsole.log(). This removes need to pass a console object to Cmd.print_to().
  • Addressed a bug in rich.console.Console where complex renderables (like Table and Rule) may not receive formatting settings passed to console.print() and console.log().

• Breaking Changes

  • Renamed the destination parameter of Cmd.print_to() back to file since you can no longer pass in a console.

  • Addressed a bug in rich.console.Console where complex renderables (like Table and Rule) may not receive formatting settings passed to console.print() and console.log().

• Breaking Changes

3.3.0 (March 1, 2026)

• Enhancements

  • Added ability to pass a console object to Cmd.print_to(). This provides support for things like wrapping a print_to() call in a console.status() or console.capture() context manager.

• Breaking Changes

  • Renamed the file parameter of Cmd.print_to() to destination to support file-like objects and console objects.
  • Cmd2BaseConsole(file) argument is now a keyword-only argument to be consistent with the rich.console.Console class.

3.2.2 (February 21, 2026)

• Bug Fixes
  • Updated rich_utils.ANSI_STYLE_SEQUENCE_RE to only match ANSI SGR (Select Graphic Rendition) sequences for text styling. It previously also matched DEC Private Mode sequences.

3.2.1 (February 21, 2026)

• Bug Fixes
  • The async_alert and async_prompt_update methods of cmd2.Cmd now respect the current value of the allow_style settable
    • If allow_style is NEVER, all style-related ANSI escape codes will be stripped to ensure plain text output

3.2.0 (February 5, 2026)

• Bug Fixes

  • Fixed incompatibilities with Python 3.14.3.

• Potentially Breaking Changes

  • To avoid future incompatibilities with argparse, we removed most of our overridden help functions. This should not break an application, but it could affect unit tests which parse help text.
