Cribbing from myself at
http://core.tcl.tk/akupries/blog/ann-cmdr-12.html
Well, this release was long in coming, with the first 'prep' work
happening on Nov 4 last year, shortly after the
[22nd Annual Tcl/Tk Conference](
http://www.tcl.tk/community/tcl2015/).
Somehow I always seem to fall off the earth after that for a while.
Still, it is done now. Thank you to all users for their patience.

Changes for version 1.2
--------------------------
1. Many more standard validation type (29): numeric variants, paths
and channels, date & time, plus wrappers around
[Tcllib](
http://core.tcl.tk/tcllib)'s `valtype` package.
1. Six new utility packages, mostly for various terminal related
things (simple user queries, tables, colors, paging).
1. Extensions to the specification language: global options,
complementary aliases for booleans, option labels, and support
commands to set up simple interactions between parameters (data
transfer, exclusion).
1. Extended the dispatch, now accepting all unique command prefixes
in each level of a hierarchy.
1. Tweaks to the help, notably support for a standard `--help`
option in all commands of a hierarchy.
1. General fixes and tweaks.

Oh, and on the topic of conferences, the
[23rd Annual Tcl/Tk Conference](
http://www.tcl.tk/community/tcl2016/)
is looking for papers. Details at the link.
