* Create module **ToolShed.Arbitrary.* **.
* Added **Main**, **ToolShed.Test.QuickChecks** & **ToolShed.Test.Data.List** to facilitate testing.

0.14.0.0

* Defined package's name using program's name, in **Main.hs**.
* Checked package **Base** exports `Data.Tuple.swap`, in **ToolShed.Arbitrary.Array**.
* Relocated **ToolShed.Arbitrary** to **ToolShed.Test.QuickCheck.Arbitrary**.
* Added **ToolShed.Test.ReversibleBoundedEnum**, **ToolShed.Test.ReversibleEnum**, **ToolShed.Test.ReversibleIO**, & **ToolShed.Test.SelfValidate**.
* Amended `ToolShed.System.File.locate` to deal with absolute file-paths.
* Replaced legacy calls to `Data.Map.fold` & `Data.Set.fold`, with more expicit calls to `Data.Map.foldr` & `Data.Set.foldr` from a more recent version of the **containers** package.
* Added instance of `ToolShed.SelfValidate.SelfValidator` for `(,,)`.
* Trapped null list in `ToolShed.System.Random.select`.
* Added functions `ToolShed.Data.List.nub'` & 'ToolShed.Data.List.hasDuplicates'.
* Migrated functions `gather`, `gatherBy`, `hasDuplicates` which merely operate on `Data.Foldable.Foldable` types from module **ToolShed.Data.List**, into new module **ToolShed.Data.Foldable**.

0.15.0.0

* Refactored **ToolShed.Test.QuickChecks**.
* Added type `ToolShed.Data.List.Matches` & function `ToolShed.Data.List.permutationsBy`.
* Trapped the case of a null list supplied to `ToolShed.Data.List.permutationsBy`.
* Re-implemented `ToolShed.System.Random.shuffle`, using the Fisher-Yates algorithm; which also improved the efficiency.
* Trapped special cases in `ToolShed.System.Random.generateSelection`.
* Added modules **ToolShed.Test.System.Random**, **ToolShed.Data.Triple**, **ToolShed.Data.Quadruple**, **ToolShed.Test.Data.Triple**, & **ToolShed.Test.Data.Quadruple**.
* Explicitly closed standard-input in the executable.
* Replaced calls to `error` from inside the IO-monad, with `Control.Monad.fail`.
* Added an instance for `(,,)`, to **ToolShed.Defaultable.Defaultable**.
* Corrected version-string in **Main** used in **--version** option.
* Corrected the output of `Main.main.optDescrList.printVersion`.

0.15.0.1

* Tested with **haskell-platform-2013.2.0.0**.
* Replaced preprocessor-directives with **build-depends** constraints in the *.cabal*-file.
* In module **ToolShed.System.File**, replaced `Control.Exception.throw` with `Control.Exception.throwIO`.
* Replaced all instances of `(<$>)` with `fmap` to avoid ambiguity between **Control.Applicative** & **Prelude** which (from **base-4.8**) also exports this symbol.

0.16.0.0

* Corrected the copyright dates in **Main**.
* Renamed module **ToolShed.Test.QuickCheck.Arbitrary.ArrayElem** to **ToolShed.Test.QuickCheck.Arbitrary.Array**, overwriting the module originally of that name which pointlessly defined an instance of `Test.QuickCheck.Arbitrary` for an array with an unbounded index.
* Added **Default-language**-specification to the *.cabal*-file.
* Added file **README.markdown**.
* Converted this file to markdown-format.
* Replaced `System.Exit.exitWith System.Exit.ExitSuccess` with `System.Exit.exitSuccess`.
* Added module **Test.QuickCheck.Result**.
* Moved the entry-point to the test-suite from **Main.hs** to **Test.hs** to integrate with **cabal**.
* Partitioned the source-files into **src-lib** & **src-test** directories, & referenced them individually from the *.cabal*-file to avoid repeated compilation.
