+Version 1.2.0
+
+  * New option, --generate-merge, triggers the generation of the merge()
+    function which can be used to merge several already parsed options class
+    instances, for example, to implement option appending/overriding.
+
+  * New option, --generate-specifier, triggers the generation of functions
+    for determining whether the option was specified on the command line.
+
+  * New option, --suppress-undocumented, suppresses the generation of
+    documentation entries for undocumented options.
+
+  * New option, --cli-namespace, allows changing of the namespace for the
+    generated CLI support types.
+
+  * The argv_file_scanner now supports double and single-quoting option
+    values in option files. This is useful to preserve leading and trailing
+    whitespaces as well as to specify empty values.
+
+  * The argv_file_scanner now supports multiple file options as well as
+    file search callbacks.
+
+Version 1.1.0
+
+  * Support for option documentation. Option documentation is used to print
+    the usage information as well as to generate the program documentation in
+    the HTML and man page formats. For details, see Sections 2.5, "Adding
+    Documentation" and 3.3, "Option Documentation" in the Getting Started
+    Guide. New CLI compiler command line options related to this feature:
+
+    --suppress-usage
+    --long-usage
+    --option-length
+    --generate-cxx
+    --generate-man
+    --generate-html
+    --man-prologue
+    --man-epilogue
+    --html-prologue
+    --html-epilogue
+    --man-suffix
+    --html-suffix
+    --class
+    --stdout
+
+    The CLI compiler usage, HTML documentation, and man page are auto-generated
+    using this feature.
+
+  * New option, --generate-modifier, triggers the generation of the option
+    value modifiers in addition to the accessors.
+
+  * Support for erasing the parsed elements from the argc/argv array. See
+    Section 3.1, "Option Class Definition" in the Getting Started Guide for
+    more information.
+
+  * New scanner interface. Starting with this version, the option class has
+    a new constructor which accepts an abstract scanner interface. See Section
+    3.1, "Option Class Definition" in the Getting Started Guide for more
+    information.
+
+  * New option, --generate-file-scanner, triggers the generation of the
+    argv_file_scanner scanner implementation which provides support for
+    reading command line arguments from the argv array as well as files
+    specified with command line options. For more information see Section
+    3.1, "Option Class Definition" in the Getting Started Guide as well as
+    the 'file' example.
+
+  * New option, --options-file, allows additional CLI command line options
+    to be provided in files (implemented using argv_file_scanner).
+
+Version 1.0.0
+
+  * First public release.
