The BasePlus package [ver. 2.0.1]

## 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.

data a1 a2 a3 b_x b_y b_z;
  set sashelp.class(obs=1);
run;

%put #%expandDataSetsList(lib=work,datasets=a1-a3 b_:)#;

proc print data=a1;
proc print data=b_x;
run;

%unifyVarsCaseSize(work,a1-a3 b_:)

proc print data=a1;
proc print data=b_x;
run;
~~~~

### Example 2. New formats/informats:

~~~~sas
data _null_;
  x = input('żółw', bpklength.);
  y = input('żółw', bplength.);
  put x= y=;
run;
