So ``fmt::Writer`` should be replaced + with ``fmt::MemoryWriter`` in variable declarations. + + Old code: + + .. code:: c++ + + fmt::Writer w; + + New code: + + .. code:: c++ + + fmt::MemoryWriter w; + + If you pass ``fmt::Writer`` by reference, you can continue to do so: + + .. code:: c++ + + void f(fmt::Writer &w); + + This doesn't affect the formatting API. + +* Support for custom memory allocators + (`#69 `_) + +* Formatting functions now accept `signed char` and `unsigned char` strings as + arguments (`#73 `_): + + .. code:: c++ + + auto s = format("GLSL version: {}", glGetString(GL_VERSION)); + +* Reduced code bloat.
