### Changes:
Update in macros:
- `%getVars()` and `%QgetVars()`
- New *optional* parameter `nlit=`. Introduced to improve `validvarname=ANY` handling. Indicates if the `NLITERAL()` function should be executed to cover spacial characters. Default value is `0`.
- Code simplification for the `mcArray=` parameter case.
- Situation when the `%getVars()` macro is called with `mcArray=` in `%put` or `%let` statements is handled more gracefully.
- `%zipEvalf()` and `%QzipEvalf()`
- If the list contains quoted blanks, they are respected now, i.e. `a "b c"` are considered 2 strings, `a` and `b c`.
See documentation for details.

SAS Packages Framework, version 20250728
Changes:
- The `mirror=3` parameter in the `%installPackage()` macro allows access `https://github.com/PharmaForest/`.
- Values `SASPAC` and `PharmaForest` are accepted by the `mirror=` parameter in the `%installPackage()` macro.
- Documentation updated.
SAS Packages Framework, version 20250710
Changes:
- Framework's code cleanup: all uses of the autocall `%lowcase()` macro were removed or replaced by `%sysfunc(lowcase(...))` call.
- Formatting of the default MIT license text in the `%generatePackage()` macro was changed.
- The `sourcePath=` parameter in the `%installPackage()` macro now allows both quoted and un-quoted address.
- Documentation updated.
SAS Packages Framework, version 20241207
Changes:
- New parameter `instDoc=` in the `%installPackage()` macro allows to download (if one is available) the `.md` documentation file for a package.
SAS Packages Framework, version 20241102
Changes:
In the `%loadPackage()`, the `%ICEloadPackage()`, and the `%loadPackageAddCnt()` macros version of a package can be provided with a comparison condition.
If the required version is provided with a comparison operator, e.g., `<=`, `=`, or `>`, then the operator is used to compare `required` and `provided` versions.
The following example:
```sas
%loadPackage(myPackage
,requiredVersion=1.2.2=
)
```
will force to load the package only if the required version is exactly equal to the provided one.
Comparison is done in form "`req. comparison prov.`".
Documentation and HoW-materials updated.
#SAS Packages Framework, version `20241014`
## Changes
---
The [%generatePackage()]{https://github.com/yabwon/SAS_PACKAGES/blob/main/SPF/SPFinit.md#generatepackage} macro accepts two new code types:
- `DS2PCK` for Proc DS2 packages, and
- `DS2THR` for Proc DS2 threads.
Those two new types allow to add `PROC DS2` *threads* and *packages* to a SAS package.
---
The [%loadPackage()]{https://github.com/yabwon/SAS_PACKAGES/blob/main/SPF/SPFinit.md#loadpackage} macro has new parameter:
- `DS2force` - when set to `1` an existing data set named the same as thread or package is overwritten by DS2 file.
While loading a package that contains `PRCO DS2` code, by default, if there already exist a SAS data set with the same name (which is not a DS2 thread or package file) a warning is issued in the log and the thread/package data set is not generated. To force overwrite, set the `DS2force=` parameter of the `%loadPackage()` macro to 1.
---
Minor updates and fixes:
- Proc `sql` "drop table" replaced with `fedsqsl`'s for data sets deletion.
- Proc `iml`, `fcmp`, and `proto` code blocks end with `quit;` statement.
---
[Documentation]{https://github.com/yabwon/SAS_PACKAGES/tree/main/SPF/Documentation} and [Hands-on-Workshops materials]{https://github.com/yabwon/HoW-SASPackages} updated.

### Changes
- Aesthetic changes in log when running the `%installPackage()` macro, notes about successful/failed installation.
- New parameter `SFRCVN` added to the `%installPackage()` macro, `SFRCVN` provides a *name* for a macro variable to store value of the *success-failure return code* of the installation process. Return value has the following form: `<number of successes>.<number of failures>` The macro variable is created as a *global* macro variable.
- Documentation updated.

## The BasePlus package [ver. 2.0.1]
This release is dedicated to all dyslexics in the world.
### Changes:
New macros:
- [`%expandDataSetsList()`](https://github.com/SASPAC/baseplus/blob/2.0.0/baseplus.md#expanddatasetslist-macro) allowing to expand data set lists of the form: `a1-a3`, `b_:`, mixed, and `_all_`;
- [`%unifyVarsCaseSize()`](https://github.com/SASPAC/baseplus/blob/2.0.0/baseplus.md#unifyvarscasesize-macro) allowing to convert all variables in a list of datasets to all-low-case or all-upcase letters.
Both macros are result of recent discussions at `SAS-L` and `communities.sas.com`.
New format/informats:
- [`bpklength.`](https://github.com/SASPAC/baseplus/blob/2.0.0/baseplus.md#bpklength-format)
- [`bplength.`](https://github.com/SASPAC/baseplus/blob/2.0.0/baseplus.md#bplength-format)
- Bug fix in spelling (`lenght` vs `length`).
See [documentation](https://github.com/SASPAC/baseplus/blob/main/baseplus.md) for details.
